Q: We are thinking of a week in Mauritius. We don't want a golf hotel or evening entertainment or anything organised. My husband has been before and remembers a hotel with individual thatched huts on the beach but can't remember the name of the hotel (!) - can anyone recommend somewhere?
A: when I was there amny years ago they all had thatched chalets, my favourite hotels were the La Pirouge, in the south Tros beach in the west and St Geran in the north east(Very pricey) but there many smaller hotels much cheaper. The best place to go is either Rosehill or Curepipe, they are up in the hills and very central to the whole island, you may find it very hot and humid staying at sea level at the beach hotels Enjoy a marvelous experience, the people are fantastic and the scenery is gorgeous
