    If you have mobility problems, the stairs could be an issue. The property is also next to the main road, but I did not find the traffic disruptive.

    It's a tastefully decorated apartment that is very well-maintained and extremely clean. It has an enormous balcony with beautiful views of the beach. The beach is just across the road.

    Everything was perfect! The owners are so nice. They were cleaning every day, throwing the garbage. They gave us good recommendations where to buy fresh fish and allowed us to use their barbecue in the garden! Bare in mind that your will defensively need rent a car if you choose to stay in this area. The Villa Bella has everything you would need for a perfect stay on Mahe island. Highly recommended!

    Just the sound of loud music played by cars passing by but nothing you can’t bear! Slept like a baby!

    Marie is the most amazing and caring host ever! From tending to our every need and to helping us in everything above and beyond! She even baked a delicious banana cake for us , dropped us to a breakfast place near by and helped me with hiring a rent a car and helping me book flights to Praslin I have never met anyone so honest, helpful and considerate The property is super clean and has all the amenities you could ask for!

    There is nothing we didn’t like! The only thing worth mentioning is perhaps that the location is better for someone with a rental as it will allow you better access to nearby restaurants and beaches.

    We had a wonderful stay at Villa Bella, the hosts were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. The Villa has all amenities you need and was super clean! I recommend it! And the view is beautiful!

    Our stay was too short :-(

    We liked everything about Villa Bella. It was clean, new, and spacious (only 2 apartments in the house, so we had the whole upper floor), balcony is huge so you have 2 sitting areas with an amazing view since the beach is right across the road. The villa is not in the touristy part (just the way we like it) but the bus stop is a few meters away and the bus goes straight to Victoria. There is also a mini market not even 5 minutes away (walking) and also a really good takeaway right next to the store (but it is open only from 10am - 1.30/2pm). The kitchen is fully functional AND they have oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper for you to use which is really nice. They are also huge on security so there are gates to the property and an alarm system in the villa. Not that you need it but as they say better to be safe than sorry. Marie-Helen and Jean-Marc are amazing hosts, really nice and fast to respond to any wishes that you might have.

    I liked the location and Jean-Marc went out of his way to accommodate us. He went to the store and got us mosquitoe repent for the room since my wife is ellergic. He even let us check in since we arrived at 06:35am from a very long travel. We also gave us fresh eggs from his hen that were delicious. Anything we needed He took care of it and made it very pleasant for us. If we return we will definitely be coming back to him. Thanks again Jean-Marc.

    not a single thing.

    the apartment was amazing, everything was clean and big, nice kitchen with stow, big refrigerator, great living room, cool bedroom with big bed, A/C, safe, iron, really as new bathroom with shower and laundry machine, I cant complain. The balcony with breath-taking view, place to put your car. The owner was always there for us, helped with everything, was absolutely amazing, we stayed 14 days and i dont regret any single one of them. I can only recommend this place. Great value for what you get. I would visit this place again.

    Jean Marc is simply the !best! host you could imagine. He checked in with us before our arrival, greeted us with some fresh fruits and a cold drink. He organized a 4x4 Tour for us and was always there if we had any questions. Villa bella is gorgeous, we had breakfast on the beautiful terrace and enjoyed a Seybrew in the evening with the sound of the ocean. This is just how paradise must feel. Loved it there and hopefully will be back one day

    You really need the car to travel around the iceland. There is small shop and take-away food and actually that's it.

    Everything even exceeded our expectations. Next to the sea (nice small beach is nearby). Apartments are really nice and clean. Plenty of space. The owner is very nice person

    We had a wonderful stay at Villa Bella. We stayed in the apartment located at the first floor and we had a wonderful view of the sea. We loved having breakfast every morning on the terrace. The apartment is spacious, clean and well maintained. A supermarket is very close to the villa and Victoria or Beau Vallon beach are at 20 - 30 min by car. Marie was a wonderful host, very friendly. She prepared for us a delicious fish BBQ and mango salad and was always very prompt and helpful, answering to all our requests. We highly reccomend this location and we would gladly return at any time.

    How nice it is to return home after a trip to the atmosphere of home warmth and comfort. Isn’t it? That's exactly how we felt when we stayed at Villa Bella. The atmosphere is truly homely comfort and coziness. Everything is at the highest level, the wonderful hostess of the villa Marie-Helene created all the conditions for an unforgettable rest for body and soul. ❤️
