LUX Grand Gaube Resort & Villas

Such a beautiful hotel in the north of Mauritius and the most amazing place to end our honeymoon. We were welcomed to the hotel with a seamless check-in experience. We were offered a drink and given lots of helpful information about the facilities, restaurants, and activities. Despite arriving late, the staff kindly helped us get some food before heading to our room, and our bags were already there waiting for us when we arrived. As we were on our honeymoon, we were also treated to lots of thoughtful extras, including a romantic breakfast, dinner, cocktail making, and more, which made our stay feel even more special. We upgraded to a wellness room with a sea view and were SO glad we did. The view across the bay was stunning, and our room was beautiful and spotlessly clean. The food at the hotel was great. We particularly enjoyed Beach Rouge for dinner, and BB’s in the adults-only area quickly became our favourite lunch spot. The staff across the entire resort were always friendly, kind, and welcoming. The main area for improvement would be the speed of service, which was often quite slow across the resort. On several occasions in both the restaurants and bars, we waited a long time to be served drinks, and sometimes up to 30 minutes before our food order was taken. As the resort never seemed overly busy, this was a little disappointing for a 5-star hotel and became slightly frustrating towards the end of our stay. That said, the team around the adults-only pool were fantastic and couldn’t do enough for us. The hotel also seemed to have quite a noticeable issue with ants. They were frequently around the pool and beach areas, which became a bit of a nuisance, and unfortunately I was bitten a number of times during our stay. Hopefully this is something the hotel can continue to work on, particularly around the sunbed areas. We also used the gym, inclusive kayaks, and tennis facilities during our stay, all of which were great additions to the experience. Overall, we honestly loved this resort and were genuinely sad to leave at the end of our stay. Thank you for such a lovely and memorable end to our honeymoon.

What an amazing hotel this is! We could not fault our stay, the staff were always so polite and super helpful, the amenities are fab, and the hotel is luxury. We had the all inclusive package which included pretty much everything , we enjoyed all the food/drink options. The only niggle I would have is that personally, we think that the tennis/paddle/golf should be included in the all inclusive package, but it isn’t to expensive if you wanted to try. Our cleaner Jessica and another man (I cannot remember his name but it began with an S) were so lovely, cleaned the room perfectly, and it was even checked before you came back to your room at night with the covers folded back for you. The pool and beach had plenty of sun beds , and the staff made such an effort to make sure we were ok and if we needed anything. The buffet really surprised me, i’m not usually one for buffet food, but they had such a variety of choices , and they changed daily, which was perfect. Evening entertainment every evening was a nice touch, it was lovely to sit and have a drink with background music, and the singers/bands/dancers were amazing. The restaurants are quality, really beautiful food, but make sure you pre book, as they get really booked up! We didn’t take our children with us, however, the children’s activities were fab, lots of choice, and no child would moan about being bored!! We would love to come back one day, and hopefully can bring the children with us! thanks so much Lux Grand Gaube for making our honeymoon so special.❤️

We had a wonderful stay at lux grand gaube, the staff were all super friendly and hospitable and always went above and beyond. Particularly Durgesh at the Bodrum blue restaurant whose customer service could not be faulted. Ainni who ran the pyrography class was also brilliant and so patient.

My wife and I have just returned from the most incredible stay at LUX* Grand Gaube, where we celebrated both my 60th birthday and our wedding anniversary, staying in Room 6009 that overlooked the smaller lagoon and included extra access to the Spa etc. A resort is only as good as its people, and the team were all excellent including; • The Adult Pool Team: The food and beverage service here was fantastic throughout our stay. A huge thank you to Mevin, Ansh, and Veer for looking after us so well while we relaxed by the water with regular drinks supplies in the cool box. • LUX Me Spa:* Sun at the spa reception was so welcoming going above and beyond and really helped make our relaxing break feel extra special. • INTI Restaurant: We ate here on two nights, and the flavors created by Chef Pedro and his brigade were absolutely amazing. Madhvyi and her team were fantastic, providing flawless service that made both dinners a highlight of our trip. • Smoke House Restaurant: A very special shoutout to Ashwan, who always seemed to have that first cold beer ready for us the moment we walked in! We absolutely loved his motto—that he was simply "busy making people happy." He certainly succeeded with us! • Beach Rouge: Nuud looked after us incredibly well each time we saw him and we also really enjoyed lobster night on the Wednesday; Isabelle was always a wonderfully warm and welcoming presence first thing in the morning when we went down for breakfast at the Palm Court. • Housekeeping: Thank you to Jessica, who did a wonderful job sorting out Room 6009 each day, ensuring we always came back to a perfectly clean and welcoming space. Finally, the manager, Ramesh, he appears to have really strong team supporting him. While I’ve mentioned several people by name, there were dozens of other staff members front of house always engaged with the guests along I am sure a lot working behind the scenes as well throughout the hotel.
