Vegetarianism is the practice of a diet that excludes meat (including game and slaughter by-products; fish, shellfish and other sea animals; and poultry). There are several variants of the diet, some of which also exclude eggs and/or some products produced from animal labour such as dairy products and honey.
The vegan diet is a form of vegetarianism which excludes all animal products from the diet, such as meat, poultry, fish, dairy products, eggs, and honey.
Most vegetarians consume dairy products, and many eat eggs. Lacto-vegetarianism includes dairy products but excludes eggs, ovo-vegetarianism includes eggs but not dairy, and lacto-ovo vegetarianism includes both eggs and dairy products.
Semi-vegetarianism consists of a diet largely of vegetarian foods, but may include fish and sometimes poultry, as well as dairy products and eggs. The association of semi-vegetarianism with vegetarianism in popular vernacular, particularly pescetarianism (also called pesco-vegetarianism and described as a "vegetarian" diet that includes fish), has led to what vegetarian groups cite as improper categorisation of these diets as vegetarian. The Vegetarian Society, which initiated popular usage of the term vegetarian as early as 1847, condemns the association of semi-vegetarian diets as valid vegetarianism; the organisation points out that the consumption of fish is not vegetarian.
The reasons for choosing vegetarianism may be related to one or more of the following: morality, religion, culture, ethics, aesthetics, environment, society, economy, politics, taste, or health. A generic term for both vegetarianism and veganism, as well as for similar diets, is "plant-based diets".

Mr/s Kaajal, Mauritius, November 2009
“We want to thank you once again to make our dreams reality. Also that you stood at our side to witness our wedding vows. Please give a special thank you to your kitchen and the staff who helped to make such a fantastic wedding decoration”
Mr/s Rotar, Slovenia, October 2009
“Thank you very much for some very enjoyable stay(s). It enabled us both to 'wind down' very well and I don't think we have 'wound up' yet so it must have been very good. As always the food was excellent and we really enjoyed the buffets as well as the entertainment. Best wishes to all the staff and provided we are still fit and well I am sure we will be back”
Mr/s Clark, UK, October 2009
“Thank you for this superb tranquility and rest and also a huge thanks to the kitchen team to accommodating special food requests. We had a wonderful time on Cerf.”
Mr/s Waldecker, UK, September 2009
“The chef is excellent with a good variety of food. Also he was excellent with vegetarian food and accommodating this. We have had an excellent stay and would not hesitate to recommend this resort to friends. Thanks to all for a wonderful holiday.”
Mr/s Charlton, UK, May 2009
“The food was good (if too much of it!). We are fussy vegetarians, and the hotel worked very hard to keep us happy (including our finicky children). The restaurant staff were attentive without being fussy, and the location and ambience was perfect.”

“Very good catering for vegetarians, we also enjoyed the buffet nights.”
Family Stevens, UK, April 2009
“The chef was superb, the food amazing and fresh. As a vegetarian, I was extremely well catered for with imaginative creations!”
TripAdvisor, February 2007
“Being a small resort the service is very personal. If you cannot stay the night it is well worth going to the resort's restaurant for lunch. The Chef is very accommodating and being a vegetarian did not mean I had to settle for a pasta and salad option.”
