Stella Rina: Mauritius's Steamiest Secret (Adults Only)
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the steamiest secret Mauritius has to offer: Stella Rina (Adults Only!). Let's just say, I've done my research… and by "research" I mean I lived a good chunk of my last holiday surrounded by plush robes, questionable cocktails, and a level of pampering that would make Cleopatra blush. Here's the lowdown, warts and all. Consider this less of a polished review and more of a slightly tipsy late-night rant, fueled by lingering memories of the best massage of my LIFE.
First Impressions & The Nitty Gritty (Accessibility, Safety, & Oh-So-Important Wi-Fi)
Okay, so getting there. Airport transfer? Yep, nailed it. Car park? Free, and that’s ALWAYS a win in my book. Accessibility? Alright, here's where we get a little… complicated. They say they have facilities for disabled guests, but the specifics are a little vague. I didn't need it, so I didn't scrutinize it, but definitely call ahead and confirm if you have specific needs. This isn't the kind of place you want to be surprised by a lack of ramps.
Safety? Excellent. Plenty of CCTV lurking (in a good way!), 24-hour security that actually looks like they're paying attention, and fire extinguishers everywhere you turn. Essential, right? They even had, and this is important, a doctor/nurse on call. You know, just in case that extra cocktail turns into a crisis…
Wi-Fi! The Lifeline of the Modern Traveler. And the Internet, Generally…
Listen, I need Wi-Fi. I need it. I'm a digital nomad trapped in a luxury hotel's embrace. And thankfully, Stella Rina delivers. Free Wi-Fi in ALL rooms! Praise be! Also, Wi-Fi in public areas, so you can Instagram your poolside margarita without burning through your data. They also had gasp Internet [LAN]. Seriously, who even uses LAN anymore? But hey, it’s there. So, points for effort if not for practicality.
Rooms & Amenities: Where the Magic Happens (and Sometimes, Doesn't)
The rooms? Divine. Bathrobes you could live in, blackout curtains that banish the sunrise (bliss!), and a minibar stocked with… well, let's just say it contained more than just water. I'm talking bottles of local rum, people! There's air conditioning, of course, because, it's Mauritius and you'll be sweating like a politician during a press conference without it.
The Bathroom… Oh, the Bathroom!
This is where Stella Rina truly shines. Separate shower/bathtub? Check. Double sinks? Check. Bathtub with a view? Double-check! I’m a sucker for a good soak, and let me tell you, sinking into that tub after a day of… well, let’s just say "research"…was a transcendent experience. Oh, and those complimentary toiletries? Luxurious and smelled heavenly.
Things to Do (Beyond "Relaxing" - Because Let's Be Honest, That's the Goal)
Here's where you might actually do something beyond your pillow-based slumber. They have a swimming pool with a view. Trust me, it's amazing. A fitness center (I visited exactly once, because… rum), spa, sauna, and even a steam room. There's also a gym/fitness if that’s yer thing, I guess.
The Spa: Where I Found Nirvana (and Maybe a Few Loose Threads)
Okay, let’s talk Spa. This is where I lost all sense of time and probably a bit of my money. They offer everything: body scrubs, body wraps, massages… All of it. The massage? The one that changed my life? It was a Balinese massage. I don’t know how to describe it other than pure, unadulterated bliss. I literally floated out of there. I think I may have even momentarily touched my toes. And yes, okay, maybe the price was a bit… elevated, but worth it. Don't skimp. Treat yourself.
Food & Drink: Fueling the Indulgence
Restaurants, plural! And a poolside bar, naturally. Breakfast? Buffet and Asian breakfast. They had a pool side bar, a coffee shop, and a snack bar, also, and a restaurant that serves western and Asian cuisine, and vegetarian options too. I tried them all in the name of “research”. The International cuisine was amazing, the Asian Cuisine was stellar too, (don’t miss the sushi – it's unbelievable!), and the poolside cocktails were dangerous. Very dangerous. They also had a bar in the restaurant, which is amazing. Room service? 24-hour. Need I say more?
Cleanliness & Safety: Keeping it Tidy (and You, Safe)
They absolutely nailed it here. Anti-viral cleaning products, daily disinfection in common areas, room sanitization between stays… They're taking things seriously. And listen, I'm usually a bit of a germaphobe (don’t judge!), but I felt perfectly safe and comfortable here. And the fact that they had a hot water linen and laundry service had me excited.
Services & Conveniences: Making Life Easier (and More Fun!)
Concierge? Yep. Currency exchange? Check. Luggage storage? Always a good thing. They even offer dry cleaning and laundry service. And a convenience store for those midnight snack cravings. And a gift shop. So, if you're feeling remorseful after drinking all that rum, you can buy a souvenir to remind yourself of your glorious failings.
Now, for the Really Important Stuff: The Adult-Only Vibe
Look, this is important, people. This place is ADULTS ONLY. No screaming kids, no splash fights, no sticky fingers on the buffet. It's a sanctuary. A haven. A place where you can actually relax without feeling guilty about it.
My Quirky Observations & Emotional Reactions
Okay, confessions time. I spent WAY too much time in that pool. I mean, I was there for the sunsets, the cocktails, and the sheer, unadulterated joy of doing absolutely nothing. I also may have accidentally left my phone in the steam room. It survived. Barely. And the coffee shop? Excellent. Espresso to start the day, cappuccinos in the afternoon. You'll need the caffeine, trust me.
The Negatives (Because I'm Keeping it Real)
Look, no place is perfect. The lighting in the room could be a little better, and sometimes, the service at the bar was a smidge slow. And, honestly, some of the decor felt a bit… dated. But these are minor quibbles. Overall, Stella Rina delivers.
Final Verdict: Book It. Seriously, Book It.
Stella Rina is a slice of heaven. It's a place where you can disconnect from the world and reconnect with yourself (or, more likely, with a very good book and a bottomless supply of cocktails). It’s not cheap, but you get what you pay for: luxury, relaxation, and a truly unforgettable experience.

Stella Rina: My Mauritius Meltdown (and Maybe, Just Maybe, a Little Bliss)
Okay, buckle up, buttercups. This isn't your glossy brochure, Instagram-filtered Mauritius experience. This is raw, unfiltered, probably slightly wine-stained, and utterly me. My trip to Stella Rina? Let’s just say it started with a rogue suitcase zipper and ended…well, we'll get there.
Day 1: Arrival - Tropical Tantrums & Tequila Sunsets (Sort Of)
- Morning (Beforenoon, Technically): Arrived at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport. The air hit me like a humid, overly-friendly hug. Immediately, the "perfectly packed" suitcase scenario I'd envisioned shattered. Zipper malfunction. Clothes exploding everywhere. Picture me, sweating, trying to salvage dignity amongst a sea of scattered lingerie. My first thought? "Who needs dignity on a tropical island?" My second? "Where's the bar?"
- Afternoon: Checked into Stella Rina. Adults-only? Sold. The reception area was stunning, all polished wood and whispered secrets (which, let's be honest, is exactly what I needed). The rooms? Gorgeous. Seriously, like the kind of gorgeous that makes you question your entire life's decorating choices. Except, the air conditioning on the first night wasn’t working. Honestly, I wanted to scream. I’d spent all my money on this vacation. Luckily, it got fixed in the morning
- Late Afternoon/Early Evening: Found the bar. Bless the bar. First cocktail: "Island Breeze." Lies. It was more like "Island Breeze Minus the Stress." Watched the sunset. It was breathtaking. Seriously. The colours… I might have shed a tear. Or, maybe it was the aforementioned tequila. The lines are blurring.
- Evening: Dinner at the hotel restaurant. The food was decent, but my internal monologue kept running like a broken record: "OMG, this is happening! I'm IN Mauritius! Alone! And surrounded by other couples!" So much for my "I'm perfectly happy on my own" facade. Decided the only cure was more wine and watching the waves.
Day 2: Beach Bum (and the Great Sandcastle Debacle)
- Morning: Decided to be a beach bum. The sand at Stella Rina is like, the actual best sand you’ve ever felt. It’s white, soft, and just… there. Spent hours sprawled out, reading, occasionally glancing at the impossibly tanned and toned bodies around me. (Note to self: Gym before my next trip! The island is relentless with its perfect looking people.)
- Afternoon: Attempted to build a sandcastle. Failed miserably. Turns out, I'm about as proficient with a spade as I am with a dating app (which is to say, not at all). Ended up with a sad, lopsided pile of damp sand, which I abandoned in disgrace. Watched a little boy make a perfect one, and nearly cried.
- Afternoon: Tried snorkelling. (I’m not sure if this is an afternoon or morning because I can’t keep track of time.) I’ve only snorkelled once before when I was a kid. Felt like a total klutz. Kept swallowing seawater, which is… not pleasant. Saw some fish, though! Brightly coloured, judging me. Decided snorkelling was not for me. Went back to the beach and stared at the ocean.
- Evening: Another dinner at the restaurant. I feel like I’ve gotten to know the staff. They know my cocktail order, which is both impressive and, frankly, a little embarrassing. The conversations at nearby tables mostly consist of “Did you see the sunset?” which has become my least favourite topic. Tonight I watched people walk by and felt so sad for the people who were going to go home with their loved ones. Why can’t I meet anyone like that?
Day 3: The Day I Met a Pineapple (and Almost Lost My Mind)
- Morning: Decided to be "adventurous." Booked a guided tour to the local markets. Huge mistake. So many people, so many smells, so much pressure to buy something I didn't need (a hand-carved wooden giraffe, anyone?). I was starting to feel a bit overwhelmed.
- Mid-Morning: I was so overwhelmed by the market that I bought a pineapple. I couldn’t decide if I should’ve said something or if I should’ve just bought a pineapple. This wasn’t exactly what I had in mind for my trip, but I gave it a go. This pineapple was the size of my cat! And I didn’t know how to cut it. I asked one of the staff members, who was very nice and gave me a lesson in pineapple-cutting. I felt so foolish.
- Afternoon: A little bit of the pineapple juice splashed on the floor. I really didn’t know how to clean it. It looked like the juice was made of gold and it was sparkling. It was the prettiest juice spill I’d ever seen. But it also made me feel a little defeated.
- Evening: Ordered room service and ate the pineapple. Delicious. Actually, the pineapple was so good, that it was almost spiritual. I may have talked to it. Don’t judge me. I’m on holiday. And alone. So, there’s that.
Day 4: Rum, Regret & the Perfect Picture (Maybe)
- Morning: Spa day! Massages, facials, the whole shebang. Finally, I could relax. I actually slept through part of the massage. When I woke up, my face felt incredible. My body? Still a bit of a mess.
- Afternoon: Decided to visit the rum factory. Thought it sounded glamorous. It wasn't. Well, the rum was good. Very good. The tour was a blur. I might have bought a bottle. Or two. Regret set in later.
- Late Afternoon: Tried to take "the perfect picture" of the sunset. Kept failing. The light wasn't right, the angle was off, I looked like I was drunk (which, let’s be honest, I probably was). Eventually, I just gave up and sat on the beach, staring at the sky.
- Evening: Dinner at the hotel. I swear I can’t remember what I ate and maybe I’ve made this up because I can’t quite remember.
Day 5: Farewell (and a Tiny, Tiny Spark of Hope)
- Morning: Woke up feeling a little less hungover, but still melancholic about leaving. Ordered a final breakfast on my balcony, staring at the ocean.
- Afternoon: Quick dip in the pool. This is the first time I’ve felt like I’m finally getting into the groove, getting the hang of it.
- Late Afternoon/Evening: As I finally got on the plane, I decided that getting on these trips is always going to be a little bittersweet. I would always want to go with someone, or at least have someone waiting for me. But I also loved the escape of it all. Of the freedom to be the silliest, most disheveled version of myself. And you know what? That version of me wasn’t so bad after all. Maybe, just maybe, next time, I will bring someone with me.
- Departure: Said goodbye to Mauritius. The humidity didn't quite hug me this time, or maybe I'd just gotten used to it. I definitely miss the bar. But I was glad to be going home.
So, there you have it. My messy, imperfect, and utterly human Mauritius experience. Would I go again? Absolutely. Would I do things differently? Maybe. Would I pack more appropriate swimwear? Probably not. Cheers to the next adventure, whatever it may be. And here’s to hoping it involves slightly less scattered lingerie.

Stella Rina: Mauritius's Steamiest Secret (Adults Only) - The Unfiltered Truth (Probably)
Okay, spill. What *is* this Stella Rina place, and is it really 'steamiest'? Don't give me the brochure BS.
Alright, alright, settle down. Stella Rina is… well, let's just say it's not your grandma's retirement villa. It's a secluded, adults-only resort tucked away in Mauritius. Think lush tropical landscapes, private villas with pools (and I mean PRIVATE… I never saw another soul in mine!), and…activities. *wink, wink, nudge, nudge.* "Steamiest"? Look, Mauritius is already hot, but add in the… amenities… and the relaxed vibe? Yeah, it gets pretty… warm. Look, I went expecting some staged romance. I ended up, well, experiencing romance. Then, I ended up wondering if I was experiencing too much. Then I ended up happily surprised. You know?
Is it… *ahem*… a swingers' resort? Because my spouse and I are… curious… but a whole group thing is… intimidating.
Okay, this is where things get a little… nuanced. There are definitely couples there who are open to, shall we say, expanding their horizons. There are playrooms, events, and areas dedicated to… exploration. But the beauty of Stella Rina, in my utterly unscientific and potentially flawed opinion, is the freedom. No one's forcing anything. You set your pace. You participate as much or as little as you want. I went with my… partner. We chatted, we wined, we dined. We were pretty terrified at first. We ended up… trying things. Not everything. It was still an adventure. I’m getting ahead of myself. Think of it as a very, VERY suggestive playground with a phenomenal cocktail menu. And absolutely divine sunsets. Seriously, the sunsets… *chef's kiss*.
What's the food like? Because a bad meal can ruin a good time, you know?
The food? Oh, thank the heavens, it's SPECTACULAR. I'm a total foodie, and I'd happily go back just for the meals. Fresh seafood, local spices, amazing presentation… seriously, some of those dishes were works of art. The fine dining experience was to die for. And there's always the option for private dining in your villa (that's where things got… interesting…). Let me tell you; after a certain… *activity*… a perfectly cooked lobster is a gift from the gods. The breakfast pastries? Forget about it. I’m still dreaming of them. I think I gained five pounds just from sheer, unadulterated pleasure. Worth it. Every. Single. Bite.
Are there dress codes, rules, and regulations? I'm not one for excessive rules. Freedom is the name of the game, right?
There are, but don't let it scare you. It’s more about respecting the atmosphere than stifling your fun. Think “respect for others' privacy” and “be cool”. Swimsuits, casual wear, and… well, let's just say some people take clothing optional *very* seriously. The staff is incredibly discreet and accommodating. There are events with themes where you will want to dress up. There are very few things I can tell you. You know? Privacy, people. Respect. It's all about the ambiance. No one’s going to whip out a rule book and yell at you for breathing. The vibe is mostly relaxed. It's a judgment-free zone. Or at least, it *felt* like one. (I did, however, see one guy get politely asked to tone down his… enthusiasm at dinner. Understandable.)
The villas… are they really as luxurious as they look in the photos? I always worry about airbrushing.
The villas? Oh, my sweet heavens, they're EVEN BETTER. The photos don't do them justice. I'm talking private pools, outdoor showers (under the stars? YES!), massive beds, and enough space to swing a… well, you get the idea. My villa was like a sanctuary. A very sexy sanctuary. Everything is beautifully designed, and the attention to detail is incredible. That private pool was the highlight. Spent a lot of time in there (and out of it, let's just say). Definitely worth the splurge. Honestly? I almost didn't leave. I nearly considered extending my stay indefinitely, but my boss definitely wouldn't have approved. And my spouse may or may not have been a bit relieved… after a little pep talk. It's THAT good.
Are there activities besides… well… *adult activities*? I don't want to feel like I'm trapped in a… you know… *that* kind of movie.
Yes! Absolutely! Thank goodness. There are watersports (snorkeling is fantastic!), spa treatments (I had the best massage of my life… almost fell asleep, it was that good), and excursions. I went on a boat trip to see the dolphins. It was truly magical. Did I go skinny dipping in the ocean afterwards? That’s my business. There’s also opportunities for more… social interactions. Theme nights, cocktail parties, workshops. You can engage as little or as much as you feel comfortable. It's not all just… what you're thinking. Well, it kinda is. But there is other stuff. Like, legit other stuff. Don't worry about being trapped. unless you *want* to be, I suppose.
What’s the crowd like? I don’t want to feel out of place.
Honestly? A real mix. All ages, all types of people. Couples mostly, but also some singles. There’s a definite air of open-mindedness. I saw people of all shapes and sizes. Some were very experienced, some were clearly as bewildered as I was at first. And that's the beauty of it. You’re all in the same boat (figuratively and possibly literally, depending on the boat trip). Everyone is there to have a good time, and that creates a really inclusive atmosphere. No one is judging you, unless you’re being a jerk. Don't be a jerk. Be yourself. It’s the best way to be and the easiest way to enjoy yourself. And most people are very respectful.
Is it… safe? As in, is the place hygienic? Are there screenings? STD checks? I'm getting a little anxious…
Okay, this is the most important part. Yes. Yes to safety and hygiene. The staff are incredibly discreet and professional. Villas are cleaned daily to a high standard. There are protocols in place to promote a safe environment, though I'm not going to elaborate on them here because… discretion. I will say this: be smart. Use common sense. Communicate openly. Protect yourselves. This is a place where you are encouraged to explore your sexuality. But please, be responsible. It is alwaysNomad Hotel Search
