Hotels Near Ile aux Cerfs
Hotels near Ile aux Cerfs for a catamaran day: Trou d'Eau Douce, where the boats board, the Belle Mare and Palmar coast to the north, and Mahebourg in the south-east, with what each means for the morning.
The hotels nearest Ile aux Cerfs are on the mainland coast facing it, around Trou d’Eau Douce, the village where most Ile aux Cerfs catamarans board in the morning. Sleep there or on the beach coast just north of it and the catamaran is a short ride away; sleep in the north or west and the day starts with a long transfer. The calendar below is Paradis Discover’s Mauritius: Ile aux Cerfs Catamaran Lagoon Experience + BBQ, from US$77 an adult at the Trou d’Eau Douce meeting point (checked November 2026).
Three places to sleep for an Ile aux Cerfs morning
Trou d’Eau Douce is where the boats are. Paradis Discover boards here at 9:00 AM, Oceane Cruises Mauritius at Pointe Maurice Jetty and Atlantis Tours Mauritius from the beach opposite Green Island Restaurant. Stay in the village and you can walk or take a short taxi to the jetty, with no pickup to book.
Belle Mare and Palmar, the beach coast north of Trou d’Eau Douce, is where several of the hotels on Oceane Cruises Mauritius’ east coast pickup list stand, so its pickup option, US$89.55 an adult on 20 January 2027, is one way to the boat from there.
Mahebourg, in the south-east, suits the catamarans that leave from Pointe Jerome: Catamaran Cruises Ltd’s day to Ile aux Cerfs and Philao Boat Cruise’s five-island cruise.

If you stay in the north or the west
You can still do the Ile aux Cerfs catamaran from Grand Baie or Flic en Flac, but the transfer is part of the day. Paradis Discover’s pickup option runs from the north to the east only, cost US$105.03 an adult on 13 February 2027 and was not on sale on 20 January 2027. Societe fernand lacour & fils’ pickup from the north, east, south-east and west starts at 8:00 AM, takes two or more and cost US$121.61 an adult for two adults on 13 February 2027. Two reviewers of Paradis Discover’s day on 5 November 2026 would rather have taken a taxi than the shared transfer; one counted two and a half hours on the way back. If you are based in the north, the northern islands catamaran leaves from Grand Baie itself.
