2. Book Through a Four Seasons Preferred Partner
Booking through TOP Preferred Partner like Stars Desk is one of the most effective ways to secure an upgrade without paying more. Preferred Partners have access to exclusive promotions, including:
Guaranteed room, villa, or residence upgrades (depending on availability and promotion terms)
Daily breakfast for two
Resort credits for spa treatments, dining, or excursions
Early check-in and late check-out (subject to availability)
These perks add incredible value to your stay and increase the likelihood of enjoying a more luxurious accommodation.
Pro Tip: Ask us about guaranteed upgrade promotions—these exclusive offers are often not available on public booking websites and can secure your preferred villa or residence category.
3. Timing Your Stay
The timing of your booking plays a major role in upgrade opportunities:
Book early: Secure your ideal villa or residence months ahead, especially during peak seasons such as December, February, and summer holidays.
Consider shoulder seasons: Traveling during quieter periods increases availability of premium rooms and villas.
Check last-minute availability: Occasionally, higher-category accommodations remain unbooked close to arrival, creating chances for complimentary upgrades.
By combining strategic timing with a Preferred Partner booking, you maximize the potential for an elevated stay.
4. Personalize Your Booking
Hotels respond positively to personalized requests. Consider:
Highlighting special occasions like honeymoons, anniversaries, or birthdays
Requesting specific views, villa layouts, or locations within the resort
Noting preferences for quiet areas, garden views, or proximity to resort facilities
Pro Tip: When you book through Stars Desk, we can communicate your preferences directly to Four Seasons Mauritius, increasing the likelihood of securing the accommodation you desire.
5. Leverage Seasonal Promotions
Four Seasons Mauritius occasionally offers seasonal or package promotions that include upgrades. Examples include:
Extended-stay offers: Book multiple nights and receive complimentary upgrades or resort credits
Special packages: Honeymoon, spa, or family packages may include villa or residence enhancements
Preferred Partner promotions: Access exclusive perks such as daily breakfast, resort credits, and guaranteed villa upgrades
By combining these offers strategically, you can enjoy a higher-category accommodation without paying extra.
6. Arrive With the Right Mindset
Even if an upgrade isn’t guaranteed at booking, your approach at check-in can make a difference:
Be polite, friendly, and courteous—staff are more likely to offer upgrades to appreciative guests
Frame your request as a question rather than a demand (“Are there any opportunities to enhance our stay?”)
Highlight special occasions or celebrations
Often, a warm and respectful inquiry is all it takes to receive a surprise enhancement.
7. Multi-Night Stays Increase Upgrade Opportunities
Longer stays, such as five nights or more, give the resort greater flexibility to provide premium accommodations:
Increased likelihood of receiving a villa or residence upgrade
Additional perks like resort credits, private dining, or exclusive experiences
More time to fully enjoy the luxurious features of upgraded accommodations
8. Villa & Residence Upgrade Highlights

Garden Pool Villa → Beach-View Pool Villa: Enjoy panoramic views of the lagoon or ocean.
