A beautiful panorama, various activities... the Merville is recommended for those seeking to suntan or practice water sports.

On the oceanfront, close to Peyrebere and 1.2 mile away from Grand-Baie. To reach the hotel from the airport ( located 43.5 miles away), you will need a 1 hour and 30 minutes drive.
The rooms' furniture is made of rattan with bright colours. The rooms are divided into two categories : standard and superior ( in the bungalows ). The superior rooms overlook the sea ; the others offer a view of the gardens and the swimming pool. All are equipped with a balcony or a sundeck, a mini-bar, air-conditioning, direct telephone line and TV. The bathrooms offer a bathtub and a hair-dryer.
Built in 84 and renovated in 98, the Merville Beach is formed by a main building of 3 levels, completed by bungalows. It includes 169 rooms in all. Despite the thatched roof bungalows, the architecture is not very traditional. The lobby, specially, looks very cold without any opening to the swimming pool or the sea. Outside, however, the bar that overlooks the bay offers a very nice and airy architecture. The leisure areas that surround the pool remain limited, but the beach compensates this inconvenience.
Breakfasts and dinners are served buffet-style in the main restaurant. The themes of these buffets vary daily and a Mauritian evening is offered once per week. At noon, the snack-bar ''Le Badamier'', that overlooks the bay, offers a very nice setting ( rattan armchairs shaded by a thatched roof ) for eat a sandwich or a salad.
The beach is definitely the hot spot of the Merville Beach. Large and perfectly maintained, it closes the end of Grand-Baie towards Peyrebere. Deckchairs, mattresses and thatched sunshades welcome the leisure devotees. The water sports included are water ski, windsurfing, kayaking, pedalo and glass-bottomed boat. For a fee, you can practice diving, game fishing or take sea rides.
The Merville Beach offers a wide panorama and a beautiful beach ( which is not an usual thing in the northern side of the island ). In the same time, downtown Grand-Baie is very close for those wishing to enjoy its liveliness.

Le plus beau des Noël que j'ai jamais passé. Je garderai un très bon souvenir de cet hôtel et plus particulièrement du personnel qui a été adorable et sans qui le séjour se serait sans doute passé différemment.
La vue est splendide, le staff est extrêmement sympathique et le paysage est magnifique
Je n'en ai pas vu un seul pour ma part

Un hôtel remarquablement bien situé à Grand Baie, des chambres spacieuses et très agréables, des buffets variés autour de la piscine,un magnifique jardin soigné contribuent à la réussite d'un séjour à Maurice.Le personnel est aux petits soins.
La plage privée. Les activités nautiques de l'hôtel. Le service impeccable et la gentillesse du personnel.
Il manque un peu de place autour de la piscine.

This is one of the most charming places in the island. Devotees of authenticity will love the colonial style lounge and the terraces of the bungalows facing the sea, in one of the edges of Grand Baie.

Very close to Grand-Baie, the Mauricia will mainly fit young clients looking for a vacation in a colorful, dynamic and fancy setting. Here you will find all the components of a sucessfull vacation : nice catering service, beautiful relaxation areas and lots of sports and activities.

Ambience hotel, the Royal Palm remains the same while fashions and clients change all the time, without changing a single thing, which makes its success since the opening : such an impeccable service that you feel like being a lord even in espadrilles. A special atmosphere and calmness : only the palaces have the components of it...and the recipe.

Very simple but charming, this hotel allows you to stay in Grand-Baie for a very reasonable price. You should know that it is not located on the oceanfront and that it offers very few sports activities.

A Creole architecture hotel built on the oceanfront, a few steps away from Grand-Baie, the Veranda Hotel is recommended for those that don't want to choose between the beach and the liveliness of a seaside resort. It is recommended for couples or families.

Open since November 2005, the 20°Sud is a small, charming boutique hotel which is difficult not to like. You will be welcomed by the owners themselves, who are as charming as the place. A staff of seventy people are responsible for thirty or so rooms and they will bend over backwards to ensure that you have a fantastic holiday.

The Ti Fleur Soleil is a small, unpretentious hotel that opened in 2003. Although the hotel does not offer many facilities, it has a warm and convivial atmosphere and it is a pleasant, tidy and well-maintained establishment at the heart of Grand Bay, perfect for guests on a tight budget.

The Ocean Beach Hotel & Spa took over what used to be a residence with rental units, and what a success it has been! This small, charming establishment has everything you could want: large, pretty guest rooms, a pleasant garden and a beach that's great for sunbathing! To be honest, we'd happily come here on holiday! It's peaceful, and the facilities are extremely well-maintained. The staff are both welcoming and very attentive to the clientèle, which is largely made up of French and Germans. You'll find mostly couples here, as there are no facilities in place for children.
Very simple but charming, this hotel allows you to stay in Grand-Baie for a very reasonable price. You should know that it is not located on the oceanfront and that it offers very few sports activities.
