Relaxing and pleasant

My girlfriend and I had a very pleasant stay in Trish's studio. The studio has the basics (no oven btw) and the view from the balcony is absolutely fine. You need a car to get to the beach, but Le Morne beach is fantastic - so worth the 5-7 mins drive. There is a supermarket in La Gaulette with all essentials - 5 mins drive away only. Trish was friendly and welcoming - and I must admit that the "Swimming with Dolphins trip" was absolutely fantastic. Would recommend staying here.

Amazing experience, welcoming & great value!

Our experience at Beautique studios started off with the big smiling welcoming face of Kev at the airport, and continued when we met Trish at the studios. Trish and Kev are the warm & friendly owners of the studios who really make you feel welcome. The studios are really spacious & well done, ours had a great balcony where we could watch the sunset each evening over Le Morne, the mountain, and the little Mauritian village. The dolphin trip they organised is an early 6am start, but worth the pain, it was an unbelievable experience, swimming close enough to the dolphins that you could look them in the eye and hear their sounds as they swam around you. We spent 9 nights there and enjoyed every day. The studios are great value and we would highly recommend them! -------------------------------Safe Stamp----------------------------------- Your Anti-virus Service scanned this email.

Schönes Apartment mit gutem Ausblick

Wir hatten ein schöne Zeit in dem Apartment.Es ist alles da was man braucht.Eine kleine Küche mit einer Grundausstattung, ein geräumiges Bad, ein großer Schlafraum mit Safe und ein Balkon mit Meerblick.Oben auf dem Dach war die Aussicht sehr sehenswert,besonders beim Sonnenuntergang.Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt,es gibt sogar einen guten Wlan Empfang. Die Hausbesitzerin Trisha gibt sogar super Tipps wo man abends gut zum Essen gehen kann bzw. hat auch genug Ratschläge für Ausflüge. Der Ort ist zwar klein, bietet aber einige Restaurants und es gibt sogar einen Supermarkt.Ein Auto ist ein muss,wenn man vieles im Alleingang sehen möchte.Unser Fazit: Es ist ein schöner Ausgangspunkt für verschiedenste Ausflüge im Süden der Insel

Amazing!

We stayed in studio 2 for 12 nights and it turned out to be one of the highlights of out trip! There are less tourists in La Gaulette by comparison to the North and the place is located within a suburban area so you actually experience an authentic community and culture. Staying in the top studio helped protect us from the mosquito's, the room was very private, very spacious and clean with breath taking views. Watching the sunset on the rooftop was amazing and relaxing, to be able to chill on the beds and have a few drinks. The location is ideal as long as you have a car; close to the shops, the stunning beach of Le Morne, a short drive to Big Willys sports bar and lots of activities around Chamarel. The owners, Trish and Rav are such lovely people as well, they helped us out a lot and it was good that they were around here and there as we always had questions that needed answers. You couldn't ask for better hosts honestly! When we come back to Mauritius we will definitely be contacting these guys to stay here again :)

Perfect spot for an intimate & relaxed getaway.

The spot was simple and lovely... perfect for a couple wanting to have amenities of home but a more romantic environment. Beautiful balconies, nice design, a great kitchen, comfortable bed... everything was great. We felt completely taken care of the entire time by Victor and others, but had complete privacy. Great location nearby Le Morne for kiteboarding and beautiful beaches. Can walk into La Gaulette, but recommend for sure hiring a car while you're there as you'll want to explore the rest of the island. I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone.

Why they chose this property

Kiters, beach bums, bird watchers and lovers alike will get so much out of this lush green pocket of Mauritius. A quiet area that has not yet been overwhelmed by tourism although there is every amenity close by needed for a wonderful holiday, your neighbours will be mostly Mauritian.
Sunset and rainbow watch , sun worshipers can cool off under the roof shower . At night star gazers can snuggle on the giant sunbed on the roof of Beautique studios. You can snorkel in the lagoons & swim locally with wild dolphins, there is no where else like this in the world. Enjoy more privacy, more space (the rooms are a generous size) and have an authentic experience.
Ideal for those looking for daytime action.... there is a chilled out vibe at night with a few good local restaurants and a couple of bars.

What makes this property unique

This property is really close to the best natural highlights of the island and there are not many authentic coastal fishing villages like this on the island
