Riu Le monde (before palace it was called le monde). I was always amazed by its calmness without any spoil brats screaming around. So I got in touch with a local agency and I would recommend you book directly with the hotel it’s way more easier and they will be able to respond more directly since there is no third party. After booking it I began to regret my decision based on what I see online. Then days went by I decided to give it a try. We arrived at the hotel, I could see very few staff at the reception and one person a very kind gentleman jog to us and greet us with a warm smile and offer to take in our bags. There I left it and went to park my car. I gave them all my information and was offered two glass of champagne where you never get that in a four star hotel ! I had been given cheap infused water in top 5 five stars hotel in Mauritius. So a big thumbs up for that! Before I began I would like you readers to understand that this hotel is called Riu palace, its a four star hotel on the edge of Lemonde. I was given a map and well explained by Vickesh on the reception. I wanted to dine in the fine dinning restaurant so we chooses steakhouse and Bangalore. ( You have to book atleast 48 hours in advance so you have to stay 4 days so you are able to do this). And we went to our room to freshen up. The property is new, fresh and modern. It is one of the hotel that have the concept of the hotel in the future more about a self service hotel. Its more of an approach to the future. The floors have elevators which is just marvelous for any kind of people. The room has got a built in bathroom , toilet together with a fresh look and lots of light for the ladies. The only bad thing about the room is that the beds are two beds joint together and a bit annoying when you move a lot in the bed. The balcony is wide open with a beautiful view but rooms on the corners might cause an issue where you could see in other people rooms. I guess a tinted terrace window should do the trick. You are provided with two incline chairs, ashtray and a hanger for wet clothes. Back in the bathroom, it is very clean with no mould. Do not worry about shampoo, gels etcs it of all good quality and way better than five stars in Mauritius. As we went through the hotel, you simply cannot complain for not having enough of food or drinks. Plenty of high quality pastry I was actually amazed by the capucino bar and VINOD was amazing during his service. Well manner person with a touch of good humor. The cakes were amazing and the coffees, hot chocolate really up to the level presented. The place itself is chic, up to date design with every detailed cared for. We proceed to the pools, don’t forget your two towel cards and the in build bar. As drinks you have lots of cocktails and mocktails, coffee, lassi, tea, Heineken, pheonix beer, chamarel rhum( premium rum of mru), some various brands too. Throughout the day you get snacks at pepe outlet till 17pm I think then you hav
