Dinarobin Beachcomber Golf Resort & Spa
5-star resort in Mauritius.
Our verdict
Dinarobin is the Beachcomber resort we suggest when you want space and calm, with Paradis's golf course and water sports a short shuttle away. There are no standard rooms: all 175 units are suites or villas, and every suite faces the sea, in crescents at the foot of Le Morne Brabant, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. One crescent is for adults only, which makes Dinarobin our first choice on the peninsula for couples and honeymooners. It has the bigger of the two spas, a Nespresso machine in every suite, and Umami, a Japanese-inspired restaurant. Families are welcome too, with a free Kids Club and two-bedroom family suites. The trade-off: waterskiing, sailing and diving run from Paradis next door, and you're about 70 minutes from the airport and a long way from Grand Baie.
Best for
- couples and honeymooners (adults-only Zen crescent)
- travellers who want a suite, not a room
- spa and wellness holidays
- golfers who want the course without the bustle (the all-inclusive covers a daily green fee)
- families who'd rather have calm, with Paradis's sport next door

Which room to book
- Couples and honeymooners: the adults-only Zen crescent, with its own pool and pool service, plus reserved beach kiosks and loungers on its own stretch of beach. Choose a Zen Suite (24), a Zen Beachfront Suite (4) or the flagship Senior Zen Beachfront Suite (6, about 115 m², with a separate lounge). All take up to 3 adults, so three friends fit too. There are only 34, so book early.
- Family of four with children under 18: a Junior Suite (about 65 m², 2 adults + 2 children, or 3 adults). All face the sea: choose upper floor, ground floor or one of the 14 Beachfront Junior Suites. For more space, one of the 18 Beachfront Senior Suites adds a separate lounge and a large terrace, for the same capacity.
- Family of five: a Two-Bedroom Family Suite, two interleading Junior Suites on the ground floor (2 adults + 3 children, plus an infant up to 24 months; 15 of them), or the Two-Bedroom Senior Family Suite (Beachfront), a Beachfront Senior Suite joined to a Beachfront Junior Suite (same capacity, about 180 m², 18 of them, with a resort host).
- Two families or a big group: one of the three four-bedroom Dinarobin Villas, for up to 8 people, on a secluded stretch of beach: a heated private pool with a jacuzzi, a full kitchen, an outdoor bar and braai area, a children's room with two single beds, a private butler, club cars and bicycles, and free early check-in and late check-out. A chef can be arranged. The all-inclusive package isn't available in the villas.
- Every suite has a bath, a shower, a separate toilet and a Nespresso machine.
Children
-
Kids Club Beachcomber: for 3- to 11-year-olds, free, open from 09:00 to 23:00, with a break for showers and cleaning, usually from 16:30 to 18:00. At Dinarobin it's a Mauritian-style cottage by the beach with its own garden, a big wooden deck and a double-storey Wendy house. The team takes the children to the main restaurant for lunch at 12:30 and dinner at 18:15, and the club's snorkelling and glass-bottom-boat trips leave from Paradis next door.
-
Babies and toddlers: a baby care corner at the Kids Club, with a changing table, a bottle warmer and steriliser, a fridge and a water dispenser. Cots and baby baths are supplied for the suite. Standard airport transfers can't take baby or booster seats, so tell us and we'll book a private one.
-
Babysitting: €12 an hour per child (about R220), with a 2-hour minimum a day, from 15:30. Book it at the Kids Club, 24 hours ahead.
-
Health: there's an infirmary at Paradis next door and a doctor on call; Beachcomber puts the nearest clinic or hospital about 60 minutes' drive away.
-
Teens: Dinarobin has no teens programme. Teenagers get the free water sports (the motorised and sailing ones run from Paradis), and kitesurfing lessons are available at the resort's kitesurf school at extra cost. If a teens programme matters to you, look at Trou aux Biches (also five-star, with a free Teens Programme for 12-17) or the four-star Victoria and Canonnier, which have free Teens Clubs.
-
What children cost:
- All-inclusive: free for children aged 11 and under when their parents take it, for stays from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. From 12 it's charged, and everyone sharing a room must be on the same meal plan.
- Room and meals: Beachcomber's 2026 brochure says under-12s sharing their parents' room stay and eat free all year on its family rate. Its 2026-27 fact sheets don't repeat that, so we confirm the children's rate for your dates and room in your quote.
- Teenagers (12-17): Beachcomber's 2026-27 terms have no general free stay for teens. Some time-limited specials let one child under 18 pay only for flights and transfers; we'll tell you if one fits your dates.
We'll show exactly what applies to your dates and room in your quote.
Meal plans
Half board (breakfast and dinner) is standard. On half board, Rangoli's daily set menu is included (its à la carte costs extra), and Umami gives you a credit towards its à la carte menu. The optional Beachcomber All-Inclusive adds:
- lunch every day at Le Morne Plage or L'Harmonie, or next door at Paradis's Le Brabant, Zest or Blue Marlin;
- selected drinks in the restaurants and bars, by the pool and on the beach, including imported wines, local and imported spirits and sparkling wine by the glass, until the main bars close at 23:30;
- a snack menu at the main bars from 11:00 to 17:00, baguettes at the golf clubhouse, afternoon pancakes, drinks on the beach from 10:00 to 17:30, a daily picnic basket and a minibar of local beer, soft drinks, water and snacks;
- one daily green fee at Paradis Golf Club (golf carts, balls and accessories cost extra);
- on seven nights or more, one experience for each guest aged 12 and over: a spa treatment (reflexology, or a head or back massage), a six-course omakase dinner, a sundowner at Butik Bar, a cooking class, an hour of wine tasting, or an e-bike tour (16 and over).
Room service, champagne, prestige wines and spirits aged 12 years or more, spa treatments, private lessons and drinks at the bars after 23:00 are extra. The package isn't available in the villas, and you can use it at no extra charge at the six other Beachcomber resorts that sell all-inclusive, on each resort's own terms. Children aged 11 and under get it free for stays from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027; from 12 it's charged. Everyone sharing a room has to be on the same meal plan.
Golfers: Dinarobin's all-inclusive covers a daily green fee; Paradis's doesn't. If golf is the point of the trip, that tips the peninsula choice towards Dinarobin. On half board you pay Beachcomber's 2026-27 guest rate at Paradis Golf Club: Rs 1,620 (about R570) a round, or Rs 3,510 (about R1,230) with a shared cart, and from 1 May to 30 September 2027, Rs 810 (about R280) or Rs 2,700 (about R950). If you'll play every day on half board, Beachcomber's unlimited-golf package costs Rs 10,800 (about R3,780) per person, or Rs 5,400 (about R1,890) from 1 May to 30 September 2027, and pays for itself from the seventh round. Tee times cancelled less than 24 hours ahead cost a Rs 1,620 no-show fee.
Honeymooners: Beachcomber's honeymoon gifts include sparkling wine on arrival, a two-course lunch every day and one Beachcomber Experience, on stays of four nights or more (the Experience doesn't apply in prime season, and only one is given per booking). With lunch covered, half board may be all you need; we'll confirm the gifts for your dates.
We quote half board and the all-inclusive side by side, so you can see the difference in rand before you choose.
Restaurants
- L'Harmonie: the main restaurant, overlooking the pool and the sea, with buffet breakfast (07:00 to 10:00) and dinner (19:00 to 22:00) and an à la carte lunch.
- Umami: Japanese-inspired, dinner six nights a week; book ahead.
- Rangoli: modern Indian, dinner six nights a week; book ahead.
- Le Morne Plage: lunch on the beach every day from 12:30 to 16:30, and a beach dinner one night a week in season.
- Bars: Mahogany, the main bar over the beach (10:00 to 01:00), and Butik, a beach kiosk (09:30 to 19:00).
Paradis's four restaurants (Le Brabant, Zest, Blue Marlin and La Ravanne) are open to Dinarobin guests on reservation, with a shuttle between the two resorts. You can also dine at the other Beachcomber resorts, on reservation; a supplement applies only at Royal Palm.
Honest downsides
- Some of the action is next door. Waterskiing, wakeboarding, sailing, windsurfing, diving, padel and the infirmary are at Paradis. The shuttle helps, but families who'll live on the water-ski boat should stay at Paradis.
- Calm by design. Dinarobin is much smaller than Paradis, with a crescent kept for adults. Children who want non-stop action may be happier next door.
- Far from the airport and the north. It's about 70 minutes from the airport, and Grand Baie is about 70 km away. Most guests stay in the resort or explore the south-west, such as Chamarel's Seven Coloured Earths and rum distillery.
- Family suites are limited. There are 15 Two-Bedroom Family Suites and 18 beachfront ones, made by joining suites, and they go first in the school holidays, so book early.
- No teens programme. Teenagers have the free sports, but no organised group of their own here.
- Dress up a little at night. Evening dress is smart casual: no shorts, Bermudas, beachwear or sportswear.

Frequently asked questions
How far is Dinarobin Beachcomber from the airport?
About 70 km, roughly 70 minutes by road, and helicopter transfers can be arranged. Travelling with a baby? Tell us: standard transfers can't fit baby seats, so we book a private one.
Dinarobin or Paradis: which should we choose?
They're neighbours on the Le Morne peninsula, they share facilities, and guests of either can book the other's restaurants. Choose Dinarobin for a smaller, quieter resort of suites and villas, an adults-only crescent, the bigger spa and an all-inclusive that covers a daily green fee. Choose Paradis for golf at the door, water sports on site and more family suites. Couples and honeymooners: Dinarobin. Sporty families: Paradis.
Is Dinarobin Beachcomber adults-only?
No. Families are welcome, but one crescent, the Zen crescent, is for adults only, with its own pool and a reserved stretch of beach. Book one of the 34 Zen suites to stay there.
Is Dinarobin good for families?
Yes, if you want calm. The free Kids Club for 3 to 11 is open from 09:00 to 23:00, there are 33 two-bedroom family suites, and Paradis's facilities are next door. There's no teens programme, but teenagers get the free water sports, and kitesurfing lessons are available at extra cost.
Can we play golf if we stay at Dinarobin?
Yes. You share Paradis Golf Club next door (18 holes, par 72), and you also have privileged access to Mont Choisy Le Golf in the north. On half board you pay Rs 1,620 (about R570) a round at Paradis, or Rs 3,510 (about R1,230) with a shared cart, and less from 1 May to 30 September 2027. The all-inclusive includes one daily green fee at Paradis Golf Club, but not carts, balls or accessories. Bringing clubs? Tell us: extra sports equipment can need a bigger transfer vehicle, at extra cost.
Is Dinarobin Beachcomber all-inclusive?
Half board is standard. You can add Beachcomber's all-inclusive package: lunch, a selection of drinks, snacks and a daily green fee at Paradis Golf Club. It also works at the six other Beachcomber resorts that sell all-inclusive, on their own terms. Villa guests can't take it, and children aged 11 and under get it free for stays from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027.
When is the best time to go to Dinarobin?
Any time of year. Beachcomber puts May to October as warm and dry, in the mid-20s, and November to April in the upper 20s, with the chance of storms and, now and then, a cyclone. It rates the west coast as having the island's most even climate and most sheltered beaches, and it gets the sunsets. Five of the crescent pools are heated in winter when it's cool. For a quiet couples' trip, avoid the June/July and December school holidays.
How much does a Dinarobin Beachcomber holiday cost from South Africa?
Packages from R37,652 per person, including flights from Johannesburg (prices checked 9 Nov 2026). We quote flights from Johannesburg, Cape Town or Durban, transfers, your room and meal plan in one price.

Beste Cian
Ek wou ookal terugvoer gee maar die reality het weer ingesluk.
Dit was weereens net fantasties. Ons was soos n koninklike gesin behandel, veral omdat ons returning customers was. Die meeste van die personeel het ons onthou en het ons en veral die kinders op hulle hande gedra. Die nuwe Italian Chef se kos was net uitstaande (nog beter as laas jaar se cuisine).
Die kinders het dadelik ingesettle in "ons" Mauritius huisie van laas jaar en dit was fabulous om te sien hoe hulle uit hulle pad gegaan het om ons weer in selfde eenheid te akkomodeer. Kids Club was ook wonderlik met die kids - hulle het dit gelove. Hierdie was die perfekte gebalanseerde vakansie vir familie-tyd, ons tyd en me-time.
Baie dankie Cian vir julle aandeel in n wonderlike vakansie.

Hi Cian
Soos jy kan sien het ek so lekker gerus dat ek nou eers by my mails uitkom.
Dinarobin was wonderlik en ek dink ons het ons Mauritius huis gekry! Ons kyk al klaar hoe kan ons dit volgende jaar weer laat maak werk. Die family suite was net wonderlik en die weer kondisies vir ons en vir Johan se windsurfing fantasties. Ons was elke dag in see en swembad, dit het my regtig verbaas vir hierdie tyd van die jaar. Die kinders het dit gelove!
Kan Beachcomber dit dan vir my refund - ons het obviously nou klaar die hotel betaal. Dankie vir al jou moeite in hierdie verband.
Groetnis

Dear Heidi,
I would just like to report back on our holiday in Mauritius.
First of all thank you very much for your good service. Especially helping me get my pen back. I did receive it this morning.
It was great to fly SAA business class. Definitely much better than British airways, which we had the previous year.
So we will definitely do that again on our next trip.
The transfers in the Prado were also great, especially the return transfer in a brand new model.... very nice.
Dinarobin: Beautiful resort all in all. The pools and general areas are very beautiful.
Pity one cannot just walk into the ocean to swim; but we did go over to Paradis for a dip in the ocean.
The rooms were good, so all happy there.
The spa was very disappointing. Treatments are very expensive, so we booked in for only one massage each.
I wanted to use the steam room and/or sauna before the treatment, but when I arrived an hour early for the treatment,
neither the steam room nor the sauna had been switched on...... And this was at about 12h00 noon on that day!
When I asked the girl at reception to please see to it, she did not know how to switch it on, and had obviously not
checked them earlier in the day. She was reading a paperback novel at reception. The whole spa is very deserted all in all,
and I am not surprised at all. The steam room had ant colonies walking up and down the walls, so it did not seem very
sanitary or well looked after. There were also no extra towels around these areas.
I then had to go over to the sport centre steam room. The male side was not operational at all during our stay.
The treatment rooms are also not maintained with love. The dish under my massage bed, (the one you can see when you
look through the breathing hole; had an old wilted flower floating in it, and the whole dish was not placed correctly. So my view
during the massage was of a therapists’ stool with chipped paint . No incense, no candles.....
The spa at the Royal Palm (last year) had been so great in comparison. Residents had free access to the steam and saunas all the time, and
they served teas and waters. That was a real treat and I enjoyed that very much. I still dream of that.
The food at Dinarobin was quite good.
I enjoyed the ‘Il Gusto’ restaurant very much. Very good food and good service.
L’Harmonie was ok. Breakfast never changed. We went on two nights; one was good, the other not.
Le Morne Plage was good: we had one special Lobster evening there. Unfortunately it is not open every night, as I love to sit
on the beach for dinner.
I wish to return to Royal Palm next year this time latest. Which time would you recommend in the year? Lowest rates at best
weather? (We had two days of rain this time)
Thank you again for everything. I will contact your office again very soon for another booking.

I just wanted to send a quick e-mail to thank you so much for all your help with our recent holiday to the Dinarobin.
I was so impressed with the efficiency and service that your company offered.
Also to let you know that we had the most wonderful holiday in Mauritius. Our experience at the Dinarobin can only be described as exceptional in every way.
Thank you once again.

★★★★☆
Exotic Vacations service very efficient. I would consider using again. BA return flight was cancelled - nothing you could do about that - but we were efficiently looked after though it was of course inconvenient to have to overnight at another hotel and miss connections. Dinarobin is a wonderful resort, but then it should be at the price. Suites are great, food ranges from fantastic to pretty good. Standard of servicing of rooms surprisingly poor at the price - we might just have been unlucky. Private airport transfers very efficient and comfortable - Mautourco service excellent. All in all a great resort - but very expensive.
