How much does a transfer to The Ravenala Attitude cost?
Our starting price is €50 for a private vehicle for a one-way transfer. This is a vehicle price, not a charge for each passenger.
Your exact quote depends on the vehicle required, your travel details and any additional stops. Larger families and groups may need a minivan or minibus, particularly when travelling with several suitcases or a pushchair.
Before you confirm, we agree:
The total price for your journey.
The vehicle and space required for passengers and luggage.
Any requested child seats.
Any additional stops or applicable charges.
If you also need the return transfer, send your departure details so we can quote both journeys.

How long is the drive from Mauritius Airport?
The journey crosses from the airport in the south-east to Balaclava in the north-west.
Use the hotel’s estimate of approximately one hour as a guide. Allow extra time when traffic is busy, and avoid making a reservation at the hotel that depends on arriving at an exact minute.
The driving time begins when you leave the airport. It does not include immigration, baggage collection or customs.
Your driver chooses the route according to conditions on the day. The transfer takes you to The Ravenala Attitude without collecting or dropping off unrelated passengers.
Where will you meet your driver?
After collecting your luggage and clearing customs, enter the arrivals hall and look for a sign displaying the name provided with your booking.
Your driver will help you reach the vehicle and load your luggage before setting off for Balaclava.
Please provide:
Your arrival date and flight number.
The full name to display on the sign.
A contact number you can use when travelling.
We monitor your flight’s arrival time. If your flight number changes, your journey is rescheduled or your flight is cancelled, please message us with the updated details.
If baggage collection or another issue delays you after landing, contact us so we know you are still inside the airport. Your booking confirmation will explain the waiting arrangements.
Travelling with children or several suitcases?
Tell us about the passengers and luggage together so we can recommend a suitable vehicle.
A vehicle’s seating capacity does not automatically mean it can carry the same number of large suitcases. Pushchairs, golf bags and other bulky items also need to be included when planning the space.
When requesting your quote, mention:
The number of adults and children.
Each child’s age, height and approximate weight if a seat is needed.
The number of large suitcases and hand luggage bags.
Any pushchair, wheelchair or sports equipment.
Baby seats, toddler seats and boosters can be requested when booking. We will confirm the seat arrangement and vehicle before your journey.
Our family airport transfer guide explains what to prepare when travelling with children.
Arriving before the hotel’s check-in time
The Ravenala Attitude publishes a standard check-in time of 2 pm.
If your flight arrives early in the morning, your airport transfer can still take you directly to the hotel. However, an early arrival does not guarantee that your room will be available.
Contact the hotel before travelling to ask about early check-in and the facilities you can use before your room is ready.
The hotel also lists luggage and shower rooms for arrivals and departures. Confirm access arrangements directly with reception.
Return transfer from The Ravenala Attitude to the airport
We can collect you from the hotel for your departure flight. Your confirmation will state the pickup time and meeting point.
We plan the pickup around:
Your scheduled flight departure.
Your airline’s required airport arrival time.
The expected driving time from Balaclava.
An allowance for traffic.
Please complete checkout and have your luggage ready before the agreed pickup time.
The hotel’s published checkout time is noon. If your flight leaves in the evening, ask reception about luggage storage, facilities after checkout or a late checkout before deciding how to spend your final day.
For flights shortly after midnight, check the pickup date carefully. Your transfer may need to leave the hotel on the previous evening.
Can you add a stop or transfer to another hotel?
Yes, you can request an additional stop or a separate transfer between The Ravenala Attitude and another accommodation.
Send the full route when asking for your quote. Include the address, purpose of the stop and approximately how long you would like to stay.
Additional stops need to be agreed in advance so the timing, luggage space and total price are clear.
If you would like a sightseeing day during your stay, our private North Mauritius tour offers a separate outing with pickup from your hotel.

For direct bookings, payment is made in cash to the driver at the end of each journey.
We accept Mauritian rupees, euros, British pounds and US dollars. Tell us your preferred currency so we can confirm the amount before you travel.
