We went to the Pallagino in December 2009 and we went back in November 2011!! We love this place and the family. You always feel like at home, except that you don't make any food, no washing up and no cleaning ;-) The house is very well situated; the beach is at 5 min walk. The beach is beautiful, huge... More

My wife and I were expecting more given the amount we paid for the 5 nights we stayed there. Room was not very clean and bedding had holes. Very basic bedroom. Room was cleaned after the third day and was fine. Nice balcony but too hot to use. No shade... Problems with hot water. Dinner was nice but instant coffee... More

Must be taking about another place they have stayed? We never, ever request pre-payment? Upon reservation we only request a deposit to secure reservation. Upon your arrival to the villa, you are offered a welcoming cocktail, after which we show you your room and other facilities you may use during your stay with us, only if you are satisfied, we...

Mauritius is well known for its sunshine and sunsets, but “Pallagino” guest house is the place to stay. From the first moment you arrive you already know that you are home away from home. Upon arrival you are warmly welcome from The Chef Sandy, who came to greet you at the entrance personally with a charming smile, then you meet... More

We booked Pallagino based on the excellent reviews posted on this website. However, after a shocking week at Pallagino we wanted to share our experiences so others can have a balanced view. Food: Like others, we booked this on the rave reviews of Sandy's cooking. Well, the food was good on nights when there were other guests, however, on the... More

While we always welcome constructive remarks as this help us improve our services, we believe that this time we need to clarify the comments. Food: - All kids love Bolognese and Chicken escallops, but I also served great lamb and chicken curries, calamaris, prawns, homemade flaky faratas, gratins, Chinese dumplings, aubergines in season, just to mention few of the 33...

Sandy drinks all day long rum? Personally I find this accusation, insulting....Why have Tripadvisor posted this review when according their own rules -No profanity, threats, accusations, or insults are allowed –? I drink COFFEE, NOT RUM, for health/medical reasons that I do not wish to discuss or elaborate in this forum, I cannot drink rum, will not drink rum, RUM... More

By UK standards I’d put the Pallagino at a 2-3* level – adequate if that is what you are expecting but having read the rave reviews of other Trip Advisor contributors our hopes were more 4 or 5* for our stay at the Pallagino and our expectations were not met. Sandy, Rajen and their family are very welcoming hosts, and... More

We have checked, the plug is well secured. Shower head was never reported, but only the leak, which was impossible to fix during your stay because it required masonry work, It is done. There was always water in taps. But the pump booster is for you to enjoy high pressure during showers. We never ask you to come down to... More

My wife and I have just returned from a 2 week stay in Mauritius and we opted for the half board bed, breakfast and dinner deal at the Pallagino having read all the very positive reviews and being avid foodies ourselves. Maybe they were having a bit of an off period, but we came away quite disappointed overall with our... More

With free drinks flowing way past the closing time of 10H00, everything was fine, until the time my husband ask payment for extra beers you have taken from the fridge during lunch hours, as you have reserve on Half-Bord plan, then everything suddenly went sour. Next time please pay for drinks like every honest person will do. Foods – Just... More
