our stay at the hotel ambre was a very relaxed and pleasant one, the pool is big, blue and sort of just makes you feel that it is submerged with the sea, there are a lot of watersports available, but unfortunately they all shut down by 4.00pm, which is very disappointing. the room are cozy and clean, overlooking gardens and... more

My husband and I along with another couple stayed at Hotel Ambre for 2 weeks in November 2009, this was not our first trip to Mauritius and we have prevously stayed in other 4 star hotels there so we knew what to expect from this category of hotel. Overall the location was good with a lovely long beach area ,... more

The staff were friendly and attentive, providing you took a little time to get to know them. Most of the time we were served immediately, Tipping at the start of the holiday does make a difference. The food... more

The lady at the front desk eventually offered us to have our dinner before going to our room ( which i think was a cover-up). Dinner... more

I agree with the reviews written about the fantastic beaches but have to agree that the standard of service in the hotel is very very poor. There was a definite shortage of staff, particularly in the bar in the evenings. In the restaurant the staff were plentiful but lacked enthusiasm to say the least. The food was also disappointing, I... more

We arrived at the Ambre Hotel after 2.30 pm to an average welcome. Our room was not ready and we were advised to go for lunch or sit at the bar. Two hours later no one had the decency to approach us and tell us our room was ready instead we headed over to reception to enquire. Room looked fine,... more
