Family-friendly holiday rentals in Grande Riviere Noire

An ideal place to explore Mauritius, its beaches and inland and find calm, comfort and idleness in the late afternoon! Super equipped accommodation where you can feel at home right away. Ambroise and Ganesh's hospitality is remarkable. Attentive, available and concerned with our installation. I can only confirm the many testimonials in this sense that we had read before coming: everything is true! and perfect:-)

a superb holiday in a faithful and comfortable rental. adapted and dunctional pool. Good hygiene and a verandah with ocean views. the furniture is in the theme of the island and gives a lot of charm to the stay. the only downside is the weak wifi in some rooms of the house, otherwise there is nothing to say. very good stay and the pool was a plus for all the family. The concierge is really great and responsive.

We had a wonderful stay at the lovely house. The location is superb, so is the garden.

We stayed for a week at Harry and Malini's. The accommodation is very well located, close to the sea and shops. I have nothing else to say, our week was excellent! Thanks to them for hosting us and for their kindness.

Perfect location, beautiful apartment with everything you need inside: a small balcony to enjoy the sun in the morning during breakfast, a seating area with two swings to relax when returning from visits, a fully equipped kitchen and a modern bathroom. Not to mention the outside with its large swimming pool, its well-stocked weight room, the relaxation area, the barbecue area... everything is beautiful. Great hosts who best advise you on things to visit, very kind, respectful, attentive and attentive. I was able to share a grill and rum party with them and it was perfect. I recommend 1000% and will be back for sure! See you soon.

The location in the middle of the national park is fantastic. Quiet and safe without a rental car, however, you can't get very far here. The house was much nicer than you could guess before and the perfectly furnished kitchen surprised us very much. We have never had such good amenities in an Airbnb Everything was clean and tidy and we really enjoyed the time. The pool was pleasant and the air conditioners in the rooms worked very well. Only in the living area it was very warm, unfortunately you could not spend a longer time. Mosquito spray is highly recommended, but that applies to the whole island. Thank you for the great time.

My family and I had a great time at the villa. As you can see it is right on the water with easy beach access and stunning views. The outdoor seating area provides a great place to gather and get out of the sun. The maid was very pleasant and spoke excellent English. In addition Sophie arranged for a chef for the entire week so we didn’t have to worry about cooking. The villa itself if very nice and has all the amenities that you need. It was a great trip and would come back and stay here anytime!

Florian is a proactive and caring host. His place offers the perfect balance between feeling at home and elegance. You will find everything you need and then some. We didn't want our stay to end!

Fabulous stay. Friendly staff. Very accommodating and will certainly be back soon . Huge thank to all.

Sheila was an exceptional host, friendly, always responsive to calls/texts and even went above and beyond to assist us during our stay (especially with her family for airport runs and car rental!!) Our lengthy stay was a home from home! We couldn’t thank her enough 🙏🏽 The place is a nice, big spacious apartment in the heart of rural Mauritius, small local shops close by - be prepared for some bugs in the evening, but friendly (and shy!) geckos, who actually help eat the bugs! Belle Mare beach (one of the best on the island) only 10 minutes away by car. La Riviere restaurant was also recommended by Shelia and is must to eat at, no need to make a reservation, you can just turn up! On our last day we also visited an island called Ile Aux Cerf which was a short drive and then boat ride away! Shelia also provided us with basic essentials: water, juice, sugar, cutlery, cleaning products and household basics. On top of all that she also provided a very useful welcome guide. Overall 10/

ras,everything was perfect, like last time, thank you very much

A nice and big studio with a great terrace. Very quiet yet centrally located. The beach and restaurants can be reached on foot in about 10 minutes, if you want to go to other beaches, a scooter or car is recommended. The landlords are very comfortable. There is plenty of hot water, the kitchen is well equipped and the rooms can be darkened with curtains. The bed is comfortable, the AC cools down, although it is also a little louder. Earplugs can help. Everything is divided as shown in the pictures: a bathroom, a kitchen with seating, a bedroom and a living room with sofa and dining table.

Realy big and comfortable accomodation in a very good location, near to the beach

Fantastic location, directly on the beach, really quiet. House is decorated with taste and really feel comfortable. The pool is not too deep so rather safe. The beach is really quiet and nice. Swimming is easy and not deep for a long while. East coast is more exposed to wind but end of June we had pleasant weather every days, despite some occasional rain that never lasted long. Asmita the cleaning lady is really friendly but also knows to be discreet. She was really taking good care of the house and us. It’s a real plus to have her. A car is a must to quickly go around, shopping or for dinner. We hope to come back one day.

Set in a very quiet street and a very easy walk to the beach and shops. The main supermarket as Cascavelle is a 10 minute drive. The apartment is just as described and tastefully decorated with everything you need for a short or long term stay. There's plenty of space with a large dining area, well equiped kitchen with an added extra of a water filter jug. Beautifully decorated bedrooms, one with an en suite and also a large seperate shower and toilet for the other bedroom. The open plan lounge area has comfotable seating and a tv. There is a seperate breakfast bar by the kitchen hatch area. AC is available in the bedrooms and lounge. There is a small covered seating area outside. I was able to put my car inside the property. Wifi reception is very good. The property was spotlessly clean and I would thoroughly recommend staying here if you want easy access to many of the beautiful sights in the south of Mauritius. Thank you Shanon and your family for making my stay so lovely.

We were allowed to spend 10 nights at Amelie's place. She's a great hostess with lots of tips and nice conversations. The property is centrally located in Tamarin, shopping nearby and less than 1km to Tamarin Public Beach. Through the hostess's garden you can reach the beach for magnificent sunsets and in the morning you can discover dolphins. The place is nice and big and has a great outdoor kitchen with living area right by the pool. If you have a light sleep, you may be woken up by car traffic in the morning. The southwest of Mauritius is perfect for hiking in the national park and many other activities. We would stay with Amelie again the next time we visit Mauritius.

We had a great time staying at Villa Pampas 2. The house was superb, clean, very well-equipped and tastefully decorated. The garden and pool allow you to fully enjoy the stay as well. A big thank you for the welcome of Soumila and her small dishes which are a treat. Great contact with landlords. We recommend ++

Before arrival Archad was very responsive and helpful. Upon arrival we were met and shown around the house and shown how everything worked etc. The house was very clean with large rooms. The location is good - easy to get to Port Louis outside of rush hour and the motorways around the rest of the island. The (basically) private beach added a touch of luxury. House manager Natasha is very responsive and always on hand. We had an issue (nothing to do with the house) and Natacha was over later the same day and all sorted on a Sunday. Would recommend highly.

Jean Christophe, his family and Agnes were all warm, helpful and generous hosts. The house and location were even better than the photos and the kindness afforded by the nearby family and the housekeeping team was fabulous. I will miss looking up at Le Morne from the pool 💔 but we will be back! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful home.

I’ve been staying at this property on and off for the past four years whenever I visit Mauritius, and I can confidently say — this is one of the best hosts I’ve ever had on Airbnb. The house is always in perfect condition: spotless clean, well-organized, and fully equipped for a long-term stay. The garden is beautifully maintained, and the atmosphere feels calm and cared for. The host is consistently responsive, thoughtful, and reliable. Everything you might need is already there — just unpack and live. If you’re looking not just for a place to stay, but for a place to be, this is it.

We had a fantastic stay at Ornella and Eric’s place! From the moment we arrived, Ornella was incredibly welcoming and made us feel at home. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. But the highlight was definitely the breathtaking view—waking up to it every morning was a dream! During our stay there was a cyclone warning , Ornella kept us updated with latest information, offering guidance and reassurance . Ornella was very sweet and kind, we truly appreciate her hospitality. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway with a wonderful host, this is the perfect spot. Highly recommend!

Great stay at a peaceful, cozy and beautiful house. It was private, clean, and fully furnished. Also a warm Stephanie to welcome us. Would have it as a first choice when around Grand Baie again. Did also receive a lot of information before the stay as well as tips about local activities/places to visit. For other visitors: following the GPS instructions can make you follow a bad unpaved road through bushes but if you read the map yourself you can get there through a good paved road as the residence is in an urbanised area.

We were blown away by the beauty of the villa when we arrived. It is the perfect balance of luxury & home, without feeling like you have invaded someone else's space. The staff were great at keeping the place tip top, and we enjoyed some gorgeous mauritian cuisine prepared. The garden and pool are a stunning place to enjoy the Mauritian sunshine. Whole heartedly recommended!

Everything worked out just fine. Air France screwed up our arrival by choosing a ridiculously tight connecting flight. They missed it and put us in a hotel that was more of a dive. As a result, we arrived in Mauritius a day later. I was able to communicate with Olivier without any problems and he immediately pointed out to me that I could cancel the day on Airbnb. I did it, money back - perfect. Our departure was late and it was no problem for Olivier that we showered in the house again because we used the day to bathe and check out later. All in all: Mauritius is worth a trip, especially if you want to kite, hike and snorkel like we do. And Olivier is a great place for it.
