Great time here...Love the pool and the maid service is wonderfu"
We stay here in February 2013 for one week and have a a great time. The pool is lovely, it's right in front of us and most of the time no one there. The place is a across from the beach, but the beach there is just OK. I recommend to go down Grand Bay which is about 5 minutes drive.
The place itself is clean and nice. The maid service is wonderful. We love the food that she made.
The only issue that we have is the check in. We arrived around 8pm and there was no one around. We have to make a few calls to get in. We did told the owner that we'll be there around that time, so not sure where the miscommunication is.

"Lovely 3 storey terraced house. Well furnished with a/c in bedrooms. Large pool in well maintained communal gardens. Cook and Cleaner were wonderful - thank you to them to help make our holiday even better. We have a 15m toddler and so we hired a car - there is plenty of parking."

"La Résidence Kenville est un site très appréciable avec des enfants qui peuvent jouer en toute sécurité dans le grand jardin. La piscine est à deux pas de la maison. Cette résidence est aussi un agréable endroit pour rencontrer des gens qui vivent sur place toute l'année (mauriciens ou expatiés) avec lesquels il est toujours agréable de discuter ou de partager des activités. Beaucoup d'enfants se sont retrouvés pour jouer,partageant jouets et bonne humeur dans une grande diversité de langues et de nationalités! La maison à 15 minutes à pied du centre du village (le chemin par la plage est très agréable). La maison est très bien, tout l'équipement est appréciable et les personnes travailant au service adorables. Deux petits commentaires: les armoires sont inutilisables du fait de l'odeur très forte d'humidité qui s'en dégage; la route qui passe devant la résidence est très, très proche... avec des pétarades de moteurs mal réglés et des vitesses trop élevées de passage. C'est dommage, parce que tout est fait par ailleurs pour la détente (agencement de la maison, terrasse abritée, jardin tropical très soigné, piscine etc...). Endroit à déconseiller pour quelqu'un qui resterait toute la journée sur le site. Endroit à conseiller pour la richesse en terme de rencontre."

We love Mauritius, having stayed there a couple of years ago and would recommend the island as a holiday destination. However, we would not recommend this property.

This property is in need of updating. Whilst the property itself was clean, the mattress covers were badly stained and the pillows dirty and hard. The sunbed cushions were also filthy. Both bathrooms were clean but very dated and the toilets didn't flush properly and were chippped.

The owner, Dominique had stayed at the property just before we arrived and we were surprised that she hadn't checked the beds etc while there.

We had looked forward to using the 4 bicycles which were included but they weren't available. We spoke to Dominique who said she would sort it out and get back to us (at the beginning of the holiday). We never heard from her again. We had water leaking through the ceiling into the sitting room and we waited in for the plumber to call - he never did.
As there is no useful literature available at the house, with some information about the surrounding area, restaurants, bars, shops, places to go, numbers for taxis we suggest the owner provides this. There was no information at all in the house re using the WIFI, telephone, TV etc.
A few pieces of helpful information in a folder would have been appreciated.

The house is in a small complex with a lovely well kept pool and the beach at Bain Boeuf is very close by (over a busy road). Buses are frequent and inexpensive to get into Pereybere and Grand Baie. The 2 maids were excellent - cleaning thoroughly and cooking when asked to. We would recommend the Kenville complex but not this particular property.

Overall we wouldn't recommend this property because we feel it suffers badly from an absent owner. The owner needs to look at what she's charging for this property and update it and provide useful information accordingly.
