Looking to book 2 weeks in Mauritius for next year and all the hotels say they have a shirt/ trousers dress code for evening meals. Has anyone got any real life experience of whether this is enforced?

I don't mind a few nights being more formal but I hate wearing anything formal when on holiday as I wear a suit 6 days a week for work

To make it clear I'm not expecting to wear swim Shorts and a vest like some people feel is ok. I'm thinking more of a nice t-shirt and some shorts with smart trainers.

Thanks

There is a few different hotels we are looking at. I've looked on their websites and they all state a smart casual dress code inc trousers at least. Someone asked the same question in the Q&A on trip advisor and received the "by the book reply". I'm looking for real world what actually happens as I can't believe everyone dresses up

Viranda Palmer , and Emerauge are our current favourites down to location and price but happy to hear any suggestions.

Thank for the replies. It appears I may struggle to find somewhere that isn't at least suggesting trousers etc.

I'm going in April and looking at the east coast.

May widen my search to other places as don't really want to have to get too dressed up. If only butlins had a venue out there it seems I'd be sorted.

What the Maldives like for dress codes? It'd be one of the cheaper islands though.

I emailed the hotel directly a few days ago to ask what was acceptable. Turns out jeans, t-shirts and trainers are ok.

Just booked for a 2 night stay in Dubai and 12 nights in Mauritius.


Just need to plan what we are going to do whilst in both places. We are staying in Belle Mare if it helps for any suggestions?
