Lunch for two adults and two kids - I had a beef burger which was quite simply the best I've ever eaten, the kids split a ham and cheese baguette with skin-on French fries (they hated those so I scored) and the Missus had a lovely salad. The setting of a few outside tables in a sculpted garden is excellent,... More

I didn't make a reservation for a hotel since I was flying standby and wasn't sure when I was going to be there. I tried Les Lauriers, but they told me to come back the next day since it was late around 10pm. I walked into a restaurant to ask if there was any place to stay and a local... More

We stayed here last July after arriving in Mauritius and discovering that the villa that we had booked and paid for did not exist and we had been defrauded by a somewhat infamous Mauritius resident. Somewhat depressed and with nowhere to stay we found Esprit-Libre through Tripadvisor. It had changed hands and was now owned and run by Jerome, a... More

We have just returned from 10days at Esprit-Libre. The accommodation is no longer owned by Stephan & Andre. Jerome, is the new owner and he couldn't do enough for us. The location of the B&B is perfect. You are able to get the bus to Grand Bay or walk, where you have a choice of restaurants for your evening meal/drinks.... More

I stumbled upon Esprit-Libre and it was meant to be. This guest house and restaurant has the combination of charm and luxurty, mixed with tropical ease. The location not being on the beach shouldn't deter anyone from staying here... it is a short walk to Mont Choisy and the location is a quick walk or ride to any local restaurants... More

After hunting around on January 1 (a public holiday in Mauritius) we were turned away by many places that were closed or full for the holiday period. I'm so glad this was the case as we ended up having a magical night at Esprit-Libre Restaurant & Guest-House. The operators handled my lack of French language skills with grace and friendliness,...
