GlasgowGreat week in Mauritius
Left on 04/08/2012 for a stay in February 2012
A great secluded location for a relaxing week in Mauritius. Great self catering cottage was great value for money. Paul and Maryline were great friendly hosts who helped us organise some good daytrips. the location of the villa was fantastic - secluded and pasceful but near enough to the main road to make exploring the island easy.
Would definitely recommend and would use again if returning to Mauritius.
