Knows every restaurant and secret spot on the island. Will tell you which ones to skip.
Mathias runs guest experience at Friday. Pre-arrival, during, and after — the same inbox, the same person, the same opinionated recommendations.
Before Friday he spent years in Mauritian hospitality on the ground: front desk, F&B, then guest relations at properties on both coasts. He knows the difference between the restaurants tour-bus operators recommend and the ones our guests come back from raving about. Tonton's masala. The Wednesday afternoon at La Madrague. The reason you book the catamaran for 8am and not 9am.
He writes here about Mauritius the way he'd tell a friend who flew in for the weekend: where to actually go, what to skip, and how to spend the unhurried afternoons.
