Very Good Featured review

This was my fourth visit, and it’ll be my last. The shower is VERY SMALL, and I can’t bend in it. The bath is VERY SMALL too. There’s no table outside, and the dining chairs are uncomfortable and unstable. I will NEVER come again.

Unit 6 was lovely, clean, and had everything we needed, with a beautiful beach view. It was nice not having a pool closing time, so we could stay and chill there late. There are lots of restaurants nearby, but the pool is the only activity for kids.

The December holiday price was affordable, and the beach is easy to walk to for a swim. It’s beachfront accommodation with great views.

The breathtaking views and constant, soothing ocean sounds made our wedding anniversary here feel magical. Drift Sands Unit 1 went beyond our expectations, from its spectacular finishings to all the little details. Lee gave us amazing service, and the unit had everything we needed and more. The fully equipped kitchen really meant fully equipped. My husband and I loved cooking together, and it felt like a little piece of home in Mauritius. 💕 Ntombi also gave excellent service when she came to change the linen, always professional and kind. It’s become our home away from home. Thanks so much for an unforgettable stay!

We loved, loved Driftsands. My family of 30 had a great New Year’s week at driftsands Uvongo. The place is neat and child-friendly, and the swimming pool area is clean and safe.
