The hotel

Overlooking the beautiful bay of Grand Baie, the Veranda Grand Baie Hotel & Spa is bursting with Creole charm and is ideally located for exploring the nearby restaurants, bars and shops. All rooms have been sumptuously decorated with cool, soothing tones and are dotted amongst the grounds. Enjoy a pre-dinner drink from your private balcony or terrace, admiring stunning views of the surrounding gardens or swimming pool. Water sports are, of course, in ample supply. Windsurfing, kayaking, snorkelling and pedal boats are complimentary, as is a glass-bottom boat ride so you can admire life below the waves without getting wet! Pay a bit extra and you can join PADI qualified instructors on diving expeditions and set sail on the resorts catamaran for an exciting excursion. The Kids & Teens kiosk will keep little ones entertained with a whole range of exciting activities. There’s also the delightful Seven Colours Spa should a spot of pampering, well-deserved no doubt, appeal. Le Food Comptoir serves a delicious range of local dishes as well as more international favourites. Lazy Lobster, set right beside the ocean, is more suited to special occasions, taking you on a culinary journey you’ll never forget.

Beautiful hotel with well kept grounds and lovely pool area and bars. Staff very friendly and helpful. Great views of the bay from dining room bar and pool but rooms are further inland. We have since moved to another, good, hotel in Blue Bay but Veranda is a class above. Good food, with a few staples and other options varying daily. Can be noisy if staying near reception due to nearby nightclub but we stayed in an apartment at the other end of the complex which despite being right by the road was quiet and it gave better access to the town. Overall this hotel exceeded expectations. Read less
