I mean, "best" in terms of speed and features: mysql databases, control panel, domain/dns registration, etc, etc...
Amazon's cloud service seems nice but due to recent problems they were experiencing, I'm considering one based in Mauritius.
Thanks in advance

There are a couple of things you need to take into consideration:
1. Where will the majority of visitors come from? If they will be coming from Mauritius, then it makes sense to host the website there.
2. What sort of traffic are you expecting? If it's a small site, you can get away with shared hosting.
3. What language the site is being developed into? Will you need Linux or Windows?
All the web hosts operating in Mauritius that I've checked (and I've checked a lot) do not host the websites in Mauritius but host them elsewhere like America/UK/Australia.

if u were not looking for a mauritian webhosting i would have recommended godaddy.com
Godaddy? Seriously?
I thought it was the worst hosting on the net.
But thanks for your answer.
Anything else?

1. For Mauritians
2. ~500MB monthly. Shared hosting, if there's any.
3. PHP. I'm going to use Wordpress and/or maybe Joomla. Linux or Windows, it doesn't matter.
I already know one Cybercafe that hosts dynamic webpages on their Windows server and they have a 2mbps Orange Business package. The problem? It's not fast, bandwidth is shared with computers at the cybercafe and they are unreliable, from what I've heard.
I've tried the Orange's 50MB webspace which comes with my internet package: Super fast (very low ping), static webpages only, ftp transfer only, and no control panel.
To clarify, I'm looking for a Mauritian webhosting service with full functionality which gives a speed of that of Orange's 50MB free webhost (or close) and as reliable as that of, say Bluehost, Justhost.
If there isn't such thing, what web host would you recommend for Mauritians?
Btw, cleverdodo is hosted in the UK right, gices? Page loading is fast, what host are you using?

Yes cleverdodo is hosted in the UK. Page loading is fast because of built-in optimisations and access to dedicated resources :)
I haven't come across any hosting service in Mauritius at the moment. The closest I got to was www.bhumishq.com/data-centre/home.html but their customer service ain't very good, so I decided to stay away from them.
