Anantara Iko Mauritius Resort & Villas

Amazing resort with such a new view. The resort has an exclusive access to the beach. Pretty much all amenities are available along with a 24x7 gym. The food tastes really good. However, the prices are really high considering the variety. The portions are small and could burn a hole in your pocket. The Indian restaurant inside the resort is super expensive and doesn’t justify the prices at all.

We had the pleasure of spending a luxurious and unforgettable 3-night family getaway at Anantara Iko Resort & Villas, and it was everything we hoped for—and more. We arrived around 4 PM and were warmly welcomed by Prashanth, whose hospitality and professionalism set the tone for the rest of our stay. To our delight, we were greeted right at our villa with refreshing welcome drinks and light snacks, a thoughtful gesture that instantly made us feel at home. While Prashanth handled the check-in formalities seamlessly, we began exploring the stunning property nestled along the beautiful Blue Bay coastline. He took the time to walk us through the key spots across the resort—from the pristine beach and serene pools to the array of restaurants offering different cuisines. Every detail of the property felt carefully curated, and the lush landscaping made our strolls a visual treat. *What we absolutely loved:* The villa: Spacious, private, and elegantly designed with its own pool and every amenity we could ask for. It truly felt like a luxurious extension of our home. The location: A beautifully maintained, tranquil property just 10 minutes from the airport. The beach experience: Clean, scenic, and peaceful. We especially enjoyed the picturesque beach swing—it became a family favorite for sunset photos. Exceptional service: Prashanth and Ashley were consistently responsive on the internal WhatsApp group and ensured every need was taken care of quickly and warmly. Dining: The buffet breakfast and dinner at Horizon had an excellent spread, with consistently delicious food. A special mention to Sea.Fire.Salt for their mouthwatering sushi, pineapple fried rice, and the fish fillet with lemon butter sauce—absolutely divine! Thoughtful touches: From the convenient buggy rides to the handy umbrellas in the villa, every small detail was designed with guest comfort in mind. The pools: Calm, scenic, and overlooking the ocean—a perfect spot to unwind. The staff: Always attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Their commitment to guest satisfaction was evident at every step. *Room for improvement:* During peak hours at the Horizon restaurant, it would help if staff were assigned to specific sections to ensure smoother service and more personalized attention. We occasionally experienced short waits, but nothing that took away from the overall experience. All in all, our stay at Anantara Iko was everything a family holiday should be—peaceful, pampering, and filled with beautiful memories. My children usually start missing home after three nights, but this time was different—they didn’t want to leave! That, to me, speaks volumes. A heartfelt thank you to Team SSR Holidays for recommending this gem. It truly exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend the villas at Anantara Iko for anyone looking for an indulgent yet homely family escape.

I am currently staying at this hotel until June 9, and unfortunately, my experience so far has not been very pleasant. The air conditioning in my room is not working properly, making it quite uncomfortable, especially during the warmer parts of the day. Additionally, there have been several power outages throughout the day, which is very inconvenient. Housekeeping service has also been below expectations — the room is not cleaned properly or consistently. I hope the hotel management can address these issues promptly, as I still have a few days left in my stay. Improving these services would make a big difference. Thank You for Your Help Dear Mr. Ahmed, I would like to express my sincere thanks for your help in solving the issue I faced during my stay at the hotel. I truly appreciate your quick response and professional attitude. Thanks to your support, my experience here has greatly improved, and I now feel much more comfortable. Thank you once again for your excellent service.

‏Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing despite having a confirmed and prepaid reservation. ‏I had booked a private villa with a private pool well in advance, and the reservation was fully confirmed. Upon arrival at the resort, I waited at the reception for check-in, and they handed me keys without explanation. When I asked about the villa, I was told my reservation was only for standard rooms — which was completely incorrect. ‏After checking, it turned out the mistake was from the resort itself. I had to wait for nearly 3 hours while they tried to find an alternative, and eventually, I was transferred to another resort an hour away by car. ‏This was extremely frustrating, especially since I chose this resort based on a previous wonderful experience in the Maldives. I expected the same level of service and professionalism — but sadly, it was the opposite. ‏After a 13-hour flight and long travel time, the least I expected was to have my confirmed booking honored. ‏Customer satisfaction clearly wasn’t a priority, and I will not return to this resort again.
