Pointe Venus
About
Pointe Venus serves Rodrigues as a local business, operating as a hotel at 8CFJ+26M in Port Mathurin, the island's main settlement. The property sits on Rodrigues, roughly 560 kilometres east of Mauritius, an island drier and windier than the main island.
The hotel is known as a place to stay in Port Mathurin, the administrative and commercial hub of Rodrigues. First-time visitors should expect a small hotel rather than a large resort, with just two photos available from the listing. Guests have given Pointe Venus a rating of 3.3 out of 5 across 12 reviews, a modest score that reflects a handful of stays.
Port Mathurin sits on the northern coast, with Baie aux Huîtres and Grand Baie among the nearby coastal places. The address 8CFJ+26M in Port Mathurin is the point to give to a driver arriving from the airport.
Rodrigues is part of the same republic as Mauritius, which passed through Dutch, French and British rule before independence in 1968. Sega music and dance, led by the ravanne drum, remain traditional on both islands. The island is known for octopus, called ourite, served grilled or in salad. Travellers reach Rodrigues by air or sea from Mauritius, and the island's drier, windier climate shapes its landscape.
