From check-in to check-out, the staff at the hotel, were brilliant , and could not have done more for us, ideally situated in Grand Baie, we stayed on half board basis, food was very good, service excellent. One thing though, make sure if you book tours, that the tour people understand, you are at the Oceanic Villa, and not the Ocean Villa, as there is a Ocean Villa in Grand Baie.
When we arrived the outside of the grounds was overflowing with branches from a tree cutting. This limited parking and was unsightly. The grounds need URGENT tiding and general up-keep. The outside of the building needs URGENT maintenance. We stayed for a week on the second floor. The building is on the beach, but same is not easily accessible. The rooms in standard studio are in a separate building across the road. This is not on the beach, but has the swimming pool. I will not recommend these rooms as these are are neglected toooo much. This block is separate from main hotel, with no attention to the facilities as well as guests staying. We stayed in the main building located almost on the beach and facing the sea. The rooms we stayed in are spacious and clean, with kitchenette, lounge / bedroom, balcony and adequate for a family to cook and relax with a limited view over ocean, due to large trees on neighboring property. The bathroom with shower is adequate. The main reception was never attended to during our stay. Breakfast is served in the Tandoor restaurant across the road. Our attendant at he table, Jamal was ALWAYS friendly and EXTREMELY helpful. This enhanced to low-budget breakfast served. Dinner and Lunch is well prepared and typical with local flavors and taste. This is a good choice for a low budget, but can be improved a lot with minimal cost and effort.…
I stayed for four days with couple of my friends in second floor. The rooms in standard studio are in a separate bungalow across the road but not on the beach unlike other property of same hotel. Rooms are spacious but not clean, with kitchenette, balcony and adequate for a family to cook the food for themselves. The water in shower not hot despite our repeated complaints. The main reception is across the road and there is no telephone in the room to contact in case of any urgency. The best part is restaurant in the ground floor where the young and energitic Jamal helped us despite the hotel being less than comfortable.As this block is separate from main hotel, obviously there is no adequate attention to the facilities as well as guests staying. It's better to stay in main building located on the beach facing sea. …
I booked a one night stay at Ocenic Villa and I loved the place.The receptionist was very hospitable and I loved the welcome drinks.The room was spacious and clean.The wifi was a bit ok though I would have loved it way faster. The breakfast and lunch was amazing. I also loved their cocktails.
I arrived to Oceanic Villa together with my diving friends. Spaceful, air conditioned rooms, cleaned every day and fully equipped with everything you may need over 1,5 weeks' stay, were located in 2 min. walking distance from the restaurant Il Tandoor, belonging to the same complex. Fantastic, service-oriented and very helpful staff, excellent Indian food, free internet access in the restaurant - all this establishes Oceanic Villa great accomodation base for visiting Mauritius without being disconnected from your home :-)
We did not expect suck great service for a 2* accomodation! Yes, as mentioned in other reviews - it is worn, but we had an amazing view over the bay, the hotel is located perfectly, the staff at the hotel were unbelievably serviceminded and a true delight to be around. Daily cleaning, good breakfast, good people that are always available to help or advise you to get the best vacation. A great plus: The restaurant - definitely the best Indian food I've ever eaten. Would stay here if I ever end up on Mauritius again.
We booked last minute, looking for something inexpensive near to the Beach House & the social action in Grand Baie on a Saturday, so didn't expect much of it. We were gladly surprised. A very warm welcome to a simple clean self catering studio room ensuite with a lovely view of the beach through the trees. The breakfast was a delicious omelette, toasted french loaf, fruit, fruit juice and coffee... fantastic for our hangover! Excellent for a 2 star rated accommodation.
Wow - did I learn my lesson here!!!!! There is always a reason why an establishment is cheaper than the rest!! When I arrived the owner took me up to my room personally - the "penthouse" !!! The only problem was that to get there we climbed 4 flights of stairs and then crossed the roof through a minefield of junk and down another flight of stairs to get to the room. The room was spacious and probably has the best view in the building (if you turn a blind eye to all of the junk on the verandah) but the rest was horrific!! The room was dirty and frequented by the nightly cockroaches , The microwave had green things growing in it. The "towels" on the bathroom floor were dirty. The nice curved glass shower looked out of place until you closed the shower door and realized that half of the shower glass was missing. The bathroom windows were filthy, so was the bathroom sink. The owner/manager did try to please but unfortunately the building is very badly in need of a good clean and some very serious maintenance (missing light bulbs, rusted air-conditioners, loose toilet seats, etc,). The barking dogs didn't help the situation either. The staff watch as the owners dog yaps at your heels while you get into your car - not exactly welcoming!! Breakfast at the restaurant across the road is OK - the staff are very pleasant and cheerful.…
