Not true that you have to walk miles to swim in the sea at FS. It gets deep pretty quickly compared to many other beaches. The beach is man made, though, and thus slightly less beautiful than some other beaches at Mauritius in my opinion. Best beach is at the O&O but the hotel itself is not my favorite. Also the little island outside Le Toussrok has a nice beach, but again the hotel is not my favorite. I would go for the FS.

Le Prince Maurice is by far the best, followed by The Oberoi.
Touessrok is REALLY tired and desperately needs a rethink and a refurb. This is also true of O&O Le Saint Gran.
Shanti Maurice is a 4-star at best and cannot be compared with Le Prince & Oberoi.
And yes, I was there very recently.

It seems as if Le Prince Maurice will become Constance Le Prince Maurice as of Sept 1st. I wonder how the management change will impact service.
I am not familiar with Constance resorts, so I have no idea if this change is a good thing or a bad thing.
At any rate, hopefully Constance will spruce the place up a bit, because it looks pretty tired to me.

I like the Royal Palm, because of the beach and the staff. The Prince is nice, if you like to play golf and enjoy the absolute quite. The Oberoi is very good, but I don`t like the beach. The O&O is in need of an refreshment and the Le Touessrok is like a holiday factory.
