La Pointe aux Canonniers Mauritius

This was our 6th trip to this amazing Club Med, and we’ve now been back four years in a row! As always, we had the best time, and so did our two boys, aged 8 and 10. It’s a real testament to the resort and its team that we keep coming back and continue to have such memorable holidays.
To start, the new Chief of Village, Anouck, was incredibly impressive. She brought fantastic energy, was always present, and seemed to be involved in almost every aspect of the guest experience. At one point, she even stepped in to serve ice cream in the dining hall when the queue was getting too long. That’s incredible leadership and a great example of leading from the front!
Over the years, we’ve built some great relationships with the teams at the ski dock and sailing hut, and they continue to be a real highlight of our stays. The team running the ski and wakeboarding activities are absolutely fantastic with the kids — patient, kind, encouraging, and always creating an amazing atmosphere down at the jetty.
Lorenzo, Jean Marie, Kiki, and Ezekiel at the sailing hut are equally brilliant. They’re always smiling, up for a laugh, and full of energy, and they consistently put on great events around the sailing activities, including the regatta and armada. They make the experience so much fun for both the kids and adults.
A special mention also has to go to James and the team at Euro Divers. Our 10-year-old, Jackson, completed his Open Water course during our stay, which was a huge milestone for him. James and his incredibly patient team played a massive part in helping him achieve this, providing the encouragement, support, and guidance he needed throughout the course. It was fantastic to see the confidence they helped build in him, and we’re so grateful for the role they played in making this such a memorable achievement. Thank you, James and the entire Euro Divers team!
A special mention also goes to Baharati, who looked after our room. She was unbelievable! Every afternoon, we returned to an immaculately clean room, and whenever we bumped into her, she greeted us with the warmest welcome and a huge smile. It’s these little touches that make such a difference.
And, of course, the bar team were rocking as always! Fred, West, Darmen, Rakesh, Ram, and Chitan were fantastic, always on top form and keeping the cocktails and cold beers flowing. A big thank you to all of them for helping create such a great atmosphere throughout our stay.
The food was also a real highlight this year. There was so much fresh fish and an incredible variety of delicious dishes on offer. We were genuinely impressed with the quality and selection.
If I had one suggestion, it would be to bring back some of the pool games and activities for the kids. In previous years, our boys absolutely loved games like trying to run across two inflatable SUPs tied together or taking part in canoe races in the pool. These activities were always great fun and created such a lively atmosphere around the main pool.
This year, those activities seemed to be missing, and the only pool game we saw didn’t allow children to participate. That felt a little strange at midday, when the main pool is such a central part of the family experience. It would be fantastic to see more inclusive games and activities return, giving the kids more opportunities to get involved and have fun.
Overall, another fantastic holiday and a huge thank you to Anouck and the entire team for making our stay so special. The people are what make this resort stand out, and it’s the relationships we’ve built with the team over the years that keep bringing us back. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

We enjoyed this resort very much as they mostly very motivated, friendly and energetic staff.
Resort itself does need a fair bit of maintenance though as the walls are cracked, faded, mould growing all over the roofs, shower walls and basin rims, broken shower heads, blocked drains, fridge not working and aircon controls faulty too but the senior staff do try very hard to delegate to the relevant department but that's where it ends.
We would return again once the resort has been given some attention to the maintenance items and most importantly if they manage to enforce the no smoking under the roof areas as this was not pleasant for us or our children unfortunately as people seemed to have no respect for the signs stating no smoking or vaping ruining it for the others that do not smoke and want to relax with a view and have a drink etc.....The fun the children had and to enjoy the rest of this resort and the activities on offer was enough to get over the room issues and would love to go again in the future to this paradise location.

Just coming off 9 nights in the resort, our family of 3 had an amazing experience with the resort catering to accommodate something for everyone, including our 3 year old.

A huge thanks to the entire petit and mini club team who were incredibly professional and dedicated to the little ones in their care. They went above and beyond, creating a safe and enjoyable space for our 3 year old.

We had a suite which was the best fit for us and we will do the same in the future. The club med staff are incredible at fostering community and group events, always with local Mauritian flavor. From snorkeling to fitness, it has something for everyone - or to do nothing at all!

There were a few minor hiccups, with staff carefully attending to them with a quick resolution.

We will definitely be coming back!

Second time visiting this resort, and really enjoyed our stay. The rooms/food/pools were good as expected but the activities were great, between the sailing/snorkeling/kayaking/waterski/swimming we had so much to do we never really felt the need to leave the resort. The large bay that is protected by the reef provides a very safe environment for the activities in the sea, there are no large waves or currents to have to worry about.

Special mentions to specific staff:
Lorenzo - Snorkel master
Jason - Most helpful barman
Kat - Made the kids feel right at home in kids club
Rishi - Made the most awesome towel animals in our room every day. My daughter loved these.
