Sometimes being first has its advantages. As the island's pioneering resort hotel, this northeast coast establishment has had over three decades to perfect the art of Rodriguan hospitality – and it rather shows. Recent extensive renovations have breathed fresh life into the property while preserving that wonderfully authentic island character that made it special in the first place. The setting is quintessentially tropical: pristine white sand beaches, crystal-clear waters, and a secluded lagoon that seems tailor-made for lazy afternoons of swimming and snorkelling. It's the sort of place where "Service with a Smile" isn't just marketing speak – it's genuinely how things are done here.

Here's the thing about being ranked among the Top 10 kitesurfing spots globally – it rather sets expectations, doesn't it?

Just an hour and a half hop from Mauritius, this is where the pretence drops and the authentic island vibes kick in. The beauty lies not just in the world-class conditions, but in the wonderfully unpretentious approach to luxury – think barefoot elegance with a distinctly Rodriguan twist.
