We have just returned home from our sixth visit to the wonderful Le Canonnier resort. Upon arriving we were greeted with the words "Welcome Home". This couldn't be more true. It doesn't matter how long the journey is, upon arrival one has the feeling that one really has come "Home". We first visited in 2015 and fell in love with the hotel. Last year on our fifth visit we were presented with our own "Dodo" plaque which along with many others is part of a colourful sculpture in the gardens of the hotel. This year we stayed in a lovely sea view room and it was wonderful to wake up with such a beautiful view every morning. Thanks to Heero who looked after our room this year. Our daughter loves the kids club run by Preety, Melissa, Sara, Korine, Anabelle, Kuhshi, Rina and the crew. The kids Club is great with organized Glass bottom boat trips and lots of cool activities. When we checked out at the end of our stay, the whole club was decked out in fun Halloween decorations. The hotel complex is full of shady palm trees . There's a large heated pool and also next to it a shallow pool also surrounded by palms. Suraj gives out the beach towels from his "beach hut"and is always very chatty with tips about the local beaches. There are 3 beaches around the peninsular that the hotel is built on, with wonderful snorkling spots. The spacious Frangipanier restaurant has a different theme every night. The staff especially Adil and Amrita looked after us and made us feel very welcome every evening. In reception the staff ( Esha, Goshisnee, Mehendi, Annaelle) were always very helpful. One of the highlights of our visit was a Catamaran trip from the hotel boat house to the nearby Flat island. Definately recommended. Big thanks to, to Marketing manager Roshen Rutnah and of course General Manger Lothar Gross. We are already missing Le Canonnier and are looking forward to our next visit.
