What sets it apart
Size is the first argument, and it is rare in Mauritius: sixteen units only, all a few steps from the beach. Fourteen are 55-square-metre rooms, sea view or garden view, with an adjoining area holding a sofa bed, a television and a library; two of them, on the garden side, interconnect and have a kitchenette for families. A 55-square-metre Honeymoon Suite, ocean view, adds a bathtub and direct beach access. The 100-square-metre Beach Senior Suite is the largest unit on the grounds: a mezzanine with two single beds, a small garden, a kitchen area and direct beach access, for two adults and three children.
The mood
A single table, the Oak restaurant, which offers a different set menu every day alongside a selection of seafood, Mauritian specialities and international dishes, with a menu prepared for children. The hotel holds theme evenings, and can lay on a private dinner, family or romantic, with live music if wanted. The K Bar opens onto the beach and serves cocktails, rums and cigars; it is the place to watch the sunset. Treatments are taken at Constance Wellness, set right by the beach.

Good to know
- The hotel goes today by the name Constance Sakoa Boutik: that is the name to search for.
- The hotel is not adults only: it provides a children’s menu, cots on request and family units.
- Ask the hotel for the opening hours of the restaurant, the bar and the spa.
- All fourteen standard rooms are 55 square metres: the difference is the view, sea or garden.
- Two garden rooms interconnect and have a kitchenette: that is the only family arrangement besides the Beach Senior Suite.
- Room service carries no surcharge.
- Sockets are three-pin English, 220 volts, and adaptors are provided in every room.
- The hotel is an hour’s drive from the airport: that is the price of a position far to the north.
