La Pointe aux Canonniers Mauritius

Club Med la Pointe Aux Cononniers is a nice environment for diving. You may want to check the temperature of the water for your period, as it was the end of the winter and sometimes a bit chilly but the life under water was very nice.

We had an amazing stay at Club Med. The staff were wonderful and many became friends. The waterski guys were especially friendly and fun! Felt like we lived in pure paradise for a week.

About the People working here, I am clearly grateful and thankful to have met:
A). Atanas, Jean Michel and Alaska from the Sports Team. What can I say? These 3 guys look each of them like the real avengers. Unbelievable how much they work, always friendly, capable and just managing all kinds of stuff with best attitude.
B) Edely at the Main Bar (he was just incredibly attentive)
C) Vanessa from Restaurant Alma, I consider her the best at the late breakfast turn.
D) Lorenzo from Sailing, he was so friendly to my daughter, my son and me. Lovely man,
E) Gary, was showing my son and me how to dance. Taking care of us, being sooo friendly,
I am leaving out of my comment many people here because these were just the ones we noticed the most.

About the room. The frame of the window to the Balkony is just separated from the wall, three geckos were in our room inside, due to it. We just sleep and shower here, this was strange but for us not catastrophic. We stayed 10 days. A very good shower, I am missing a better cosmetic mirror in the bathroom with better light. I like to have my children’s room at the side of mine. Separated from the rest of the rooms.

About the food: excellent!

About the all you can eat “lobster” dinner. It took 1 hour to get a coke to drink. No bread, nothing, so many people left angry without eating. You cannot offer this. Terrible!

About the excursions:
A) blue safari “submarine” excursion. Awesome!
B) speedy boat (under bad weather conditions at the sea) you will not snorkel much there. Way too fast! And I am never sensitive to speed. 2 hours lost having food in a very dirty beach. Highlight: seeing dolphins on that day.

About the water ski: this is the most complicated to grade. When the children go with the kids club or teen club, they get a better treatment than the children who just come with the parents. Also if they don’t speak French they will be ignored. I find this service frustrates some of the children. This should be improved. My children don’t speak French. There only chance to be treated “nicely” was going with the kids club. What a shame! I am not sure if the people there notice how they behave.

All in all 5 stars. Lots of activities, sports and fun, friendly people, also the guests. But if you don’t speak French, you might feel very misplaced. I will not give less stars just because I don’t speak French, which was unfortunately my case.

Our first Club Med experience turned out fantastic after a short time to adapt. Great food and variety, though a few more kids’ options would help. Huge thanks to the amazing Mini Club team — Cricri Crotte de Nez, Mitch, and Yaya — plus Jean-Michel (tennis) and Alaska (fitness) for their energy and passion. Stunning resort, beach, and pools! Rooms could use some maintenance, but overall, an unforgettable stay!
