Very expensive,
600 euros per night,
No reward nights available yet either.
Any idea when these will be available and for how many points per night?
I stayed at The Residence 5 years back.
Paid Ł350 per night back then on a special offer.
Awesome hotel.
But being RA IC wins hands down always.

Not too many room categories:
1 KING BED DELUXE OCEAN VIEW NONSMOKING
1 KNG BD DLX TERRACE OCEAN VIEW NONSMOKE
2 BDRM FAMILY SUITE OCEAN VIEW NONSMOKE
DUPLEX SUITE OCEAN VIEW NONSMOKING
Maybe we can get a few good RA upgrades before they introduce other ridiculous room categories...

I had a look yesterday and 30,000 points is very good value.
Does anybody know what the weather is like in late Jan and February?

Opening has been deferred. Hotel no longer available in December (and my booking changed from confirmed to pending). Fortunately I noticed the change in status early enough that I've been able to find somewhere else. I was sweating for a while though as hotel after hotel I checked came back as sold out.

Hotel opens on 18 December
I received an email today (19 October) from an employee at the IC Mauritius who said the the hotel is opening on 18 December. I didn't ask him whether this was a "soft" opening.
