Tamarina Hotel offers 4 restaurants and 2 bars. The meal basis is only all inclusive.
La Madrague Restaurant overlooks Tamarin Bay set around the infinity pool. It serves international cuisine with a ‘Creole Accent’. It is open every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner which will be a theme buffet or a la carte.
La Plage Restaurant is located around the beach pool by the sea. It opens for light breakfast and all day light meals. As the sun sets La Plage turns into an exclusive, casual, simple and elegant place, where you can savour grilled lobster, fish or king prawns under the stars. A supplement will apply for dining at this restaurant.
Le Dix Neuf is a restaurant and bar up at the Tamarina Golf Clubhouse serving light meals and snacks and overlooking the 18th hole, the river and Tamarin Bay.
Le Mirador Restaurant and Bar is situated not at the estate but at the nearby Casela Park (where you would do the walking with lions activity). It offers exceptional views of Tamarin Mountain and the sugarcane fields stretching out to the sea. The restaurant serves typical Mauritian dishes and snacks.
Le Bar is the main bar situated in the shade of an old Badamier tree on a deck overlooking the bay. I is open from 6am for dolphin excursions until late at night following dinner. When the sun goes down, Le Bar extends onto the sand deck, where you can enjoy various, cocktails and beverages, lying on long chairs or comfortably seated armchairs, facing the sea.
Spa & Treatments
Located next to the reception, the spa has a dedicated area with 4 massage rooms each with its own patio and 2 double rooms from which one has a Japanese bath on the patio. The spa, which has been designed to harmonise with the natural surroundings of the property, will use a unique range of products specially created for the hotel using the local produce of Mauritius to revitalise the mind, body and soul.
If you opt for the non-golfer or the spa package, you will receive a personalised programme of a daily 45 min treatment (except on day of arrival and departure). These include massages, facial care and body treatments.
Families
Tamarina Hotel is not really suited for families. The rooms are small and don’t really make allowances for families. The self contained villas on the golf course are perfect for families so chat to a consultant about these villas.

We enjoyed our day out at Tamarina. It is a flat walkable course which would be its selling point for those not wanting to take buggies. It has a few challenging holes and overall a day out.
Golf
The 18 Hole Championship Golf Course is designed by Rodney Wright and is a Par 72 challenging course over 43 hectares of rugged savannah land framed with mature trees, crossed by the Rempart River.
Golf is included in your stay under the golf package with unlimited access to the course. Carts are not included and are not essential.
There is also a Golf Academy offering training courses for beginners or an intensive course to improve your golf.
The Pro Shop at the Clubhouse caters for a wide range of golf associated products including leading brand golf apparel, clothing and accessories for both men and women.
On the Golfer’s Package as well as the unlimited green fees guests are also offered one 45 massage in the spa during their stay.
If a spouse or travel companion opts for the Spa Package he or she is then entitled to a Golf Initiation at the Pro Golf Academy of Tamarina: 1 hour practice with 2 sets of balls.
Honeymooners , Weddings and Romantic Getaways
Tamarina is a fantastic hotel in which to spend a romantic holiday. It is perfect for those wanting a more peaceful experience in a small boutique hotel rather than a large resort. It largely caters to adults only which is also an advantage if this is the holiday type you are after. The selling point for many ladies would be the daily spa treatments as part of the all inclusive package.
Tamarina offers a 40% honeymoon discount for the bride all year round. If it isn’t your honeymoon you can take advantage of the early booking offers, the over 60 senior offers or free night offers.
All Inclusive
