Customer reviews —
Freshly renovated, I had the privilege of visiting it before the official opening, and I must say it's absolutely outstanding. I enjoyed a cocktail at the Sunset Bar while watching the sun set over the Indian Ocean, and witnessed the torch-lighting ceremony, an iconic Hilton Mauritius experience not to be missed. Treat yourself to an elegant getaway in the heart of the Indian Ocean.
