Great Days Racing !
This place should be listed as one of the top places to go when in Mauritius. The atmosphere was amazing, the drinks were all included in the price and we could drink as much as we liked. The food was all homemade and delicious and the Host Jacques, was a great personality who made us feel all welcome and took some of us to the jockeys weigh in room so we could see things close up and talk to the experts. There was also someone taking photos of the whole day too which was then emailed to us and posted onto the Crown Lodge Facebook page. So if you are thinking of treating yourself to this day out don't hesitate, you will love it. We won 8000 rupees on one of the horses that came in 36/1 so went home very happy.
We were met in person by Jacques and his staff who showed us the parade ring and paddock. We were then escorted to the Crown Lodge which is a pleasant room and has a balcony overlooking the course, about 30m from the winning post. Everyone there, about 20/30, received complimentary canapes, sandwiches, bubbly, wine and beer throughout the afternoon of a pretty good 8 horse racing event. Overall a FANTASTIC day out, Thanks Jacques, Stacy and all!
Group outing with some friends.
We were greeted on arrival and shown to the box. We had a bar with free drinks, a place to place bets at fixed odds, the opportunity to go and view the horses in the parade ring and a great view of the race track! Some races started directly outside! The staff were very friendly and efficient, drinks were topped up before you knew they needed to be... Christelle (hope I got her name right) was brillant!
Great Place to be !!!!
Nice day there, really enjoy and nice people also. I definitely recommend you people to pay a visit there!
