Fantastic property and fantastic host
Posted Jun. 5, 2024 on HomeAwayCan’t say enough about our host Philipe. Had many great conversations with him. He was available every day to support us. Even provided us with fresh fruit from the trees in his yard.

Cosy villa Jan 24
Posted Jan. 28, 2024 on HomeAwayAmazing, so pleased we chose Cosy villa. The villa was extremely comfortable, spacious and very well kitted out, with a lovely pool that was cleaned and maintained daily. Phillipe was the perfect host, so helpful and attentive . Nothing was too much trouble and we were well looked after, especially during the cyclone. Phillipe went above and beyond what we would expect of our host. We were a bit concerned that Callodyne would be too quiet but it was a lovely village with excellent facilities that met all our needs - great food outlets including a new Deli, dive shop, supermarket. Car is needed for short drive to p
Pereybere where there is a good public beach. We would say this is the best villa experience we have had and highly recommend to others.

Great Stay & host
Posted Jan. 19, 2024 on HomeAwayGreat to have a home from home stay. Philippe is a great host. He took us to the supermarket on our first day & drove us to some local beaches. Always on hand if needed. We enjoyed our stay. Swimming pool was welcome in the heat.

Wonderfully relaxing stay
Posted Jan. 17, 2023 on HomeAwayPhilippe is such a great host. Upon arriving he drove us around the area showing us stores, bakeries, beaches, etc. We even stopped by a bakery for some treats. At the villa he took time to show us everything and was always available for questions and help. The villa is very spacious and comfortable. This visit it was only the two of us but we could have been very comfortable with 4 more people. The kitchen was incredibly well-stocked and there were plenty of towels in the bathroom. The bedrooms were large and had lots of storage. We also appreciated and enjoyed that the balcony off the upstairs bedrooms. We loved the area and being only a couple of blocks from the beach. We spent a couple of days literally doing nothing but relaxing at the villa beside the pool. There is something special to having the entire property to ourselves! We enjoyed the tasty mangoes from the trees in the back as well as making tea out of the lemongrass planted just outside the kitchen. Philippe hires a cleaning person to come daily, even to do the dishes, which is a real treat! One day Philippe came but to tell us we had a flat tire and loaned us the tools to change it (since our rental was missing the tools) and offered to help. We have stayed in dozens of places all over the world and would say that Philippe is at the very top of the list in the best of hosts out there. Thank you, Philippe! We hope to be able to return one day.

Perfect for Us
Posted Jan. 11, 2023 on HomeAwayPhilllipe is a kind and attentive host. He went over and above to make sure we had a good holiday.
The villa suited our needs and we enjoyed exploring the north of the island. It was essential to have a car, although we enjoyed walking a short way down to the shore to see the fishermen bring their boats in. We were in Mauritius at the hottest time of the year which made the pool a very welcome asset. Everything at the villa worked well, excellent WiFi , good aircon.

Wonderful, relaxing place!
Posted Aug. 13, 2022 on HomeAwayWe really loved staying at this tranquil villa! The place has everything you need and the owner, Philippe, is a very friendly and helpful host. The bedrooms are a good size with both ceiling fans and air con (we didn't need the air con as our visit was in the Mauritian winter). The kitchen has everything you need in it, microwave, toaster, coffee maker etc. There is a lovely garden with a great little pool. As others have said, the location is a little out of the way so a hire car is recommended. There are two very good restaurants within walking distance: a pizza place and Linda's Place which has excellent Mauritian food. There is also a lovely little beach within walking distance. By car, you can get to Grand Baie, the wonderful Mon Choisy and Troy Aux biches, all within a few minutes drive. Philippe can also put you in touch with a good car hire place with very reasonable prices. We've just arrived home but are missing this place already. Special thanks to Philippe and of course, Mary the maid :-)

Our stay 2020
Posted Apr. 3, 2020 on HomeAwayThis is a lovely , clean property set in a pretty garden with a pool. You need a rental car as it is a bit isolated. The Daily maid MARIE is lovely and the owner Philipe cannot be faulted in his care of the guests and the property. He managed to get us scarce flights home after the Covid19 lockdown. We had a lovely 6 week stay and we hope to return. Thank you.

Thank you for your nice comments Jennifer and David-it' s true that my property is situated in a very secluded and calm area in Calodyne which is great if you want to relax ,recharge you batteries and enjoy the sun ,the private swimming pool and garden-It was a pleasure to help you get a return flight to England when your scheduled flight had been cancelled due to the Covid 19 crisis-hope to see back when normality returns to the world

Private,well equipped villa
Posted Oct. 3, 2018 on HomeAwayEverything you need for a self catering holiday is provided. Philippe, the owner, goes over and above what is necessary to make sure that you enjoy the time in his villa. He lives next door and cleans the pool every morning and waters the garden every evening so is always at hand if needed. Very, clean and comfortable. Well recommended.
