A popular retreat catering for both couples and families with fantastic dining choices and activities.
The Ravenala Attitude is a fresh and welcoming resort on Turtle Bay, and the focus is on providing plentiful activities and culinary experiences for everyone. If you’re looking for an active break have a go at paddleboarding, windsurfing and canoeing or splash out on a diving expedition. The Otentik Attitude programme allows you to really get to know your destination with cooking classes, dinner in a local home, market visits and culture and heritage tours.
There is a particular emphasis on cuisine here with 10 dining outlets – from family friendly to adults only. The day begins with a buffet breakfast at the main restaurant while lunch can also be enjoyed at the waterfront restaurant Ō, Beach BBQ and Taba-j. It’s at dinner when the resort really comes into its own with eight restaurants to choose from, seven of which are included in the all-inclusive package.
Which suite you choose depends on whether you’re travelling as a couple, with your children or a group of friends. Family Suites offer enough space for up to two adults and three children while Couple Suites are great for a romantic break or a holiday with a friend. Guests in the Executive Beachfront Adult Suites can enjoy access to the dedicated restaurant and bar – a great place to relax throughout the day.

Spa & wellness
The treatments at the charming Spa Attitude draw on the island’s natural elements of soil, sea, sun and plants. Within the spa complex there are ten treatment rooms as well as two couples rooms with a whirlpool bath. You can enjoy hydrotherapy or vichy shower treatments or just unwind in the relaxation lounge – the perfect place to while away some time post-treatment. Further facilities include a hammam and a sauna.

What’s nearby
Ravenala Attitude is in a peaceful location on Mauritius’ north-west coast. Port Louis, the country’s rainbow-hued capital, is a 25-minute drive away and offers shopping, street art and street food. Some of the island’s best beaches – including Mont Choisy and Trou aux Biches – are just over a five-minute drive from the hotel.

The resort’s Otentik Attitude experiences are designed to help you explore the rich local culture. Download the Otentik app and take a street food tour of Port Louis; or discover the island’s hidden gems. A must-do is having dinner with a local family during your stay*.
The sleeping arrangements
Just like the rest of the resort, the rooms at Ravenala Attitude blend colonial style with a contemporary edge. Think rattan furnishings, statement pieces of art and design-led lighting. We love the Family Suites, which sleep two adults and three children. These rooms are tucked away in a peaceful garden, and have a separate children’s bedroom with three sofa beds, and a spacious balcony or terrace.
