Orchid Villas Mauritius

Very quiet area, full privacy and no interference from staff.

Cockroaches were found inside and litter from previous occupants near the pool area specifically a pearona can and broken egg was found.

The Villa & swimming pool

Nice private resort with 6 villa’s and own restaurant. Security en resort keeper very friendly and helpfull with any question you have about transport, activities, breakfast etc. De villa’s are really very spacious with 3 big bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Nice full equiped kitchen and Cosy saloon. Your private garden en pool are realy great. The beautifulllll beach is only across the street and a 5 min peacefull safe walk. From the villa you can do a Lot of great exploring adventures on the water. For sure we will go back to Orchid Villa’s when in Mauritius.

Honoustly…we have no remarques and happy with price/quality. And had a great time.

Cleanliness and location

Need some little things to change like waist of bassinet in washrooms and rustic fittings which had already been outdated and the microwave had to be changed etc .!

Large space, privacy, local restaurant, great customer service.

The internet connectivity was really poor within the villa. The provided internet access from the facility was unusable and also the own coverage with the mobile was not good. Outside of the house it was slow but worked.

The staff were very friendly and helpful.

The villas need renovation.

The villa was quote spacious Restaurant staff was kind and helpful

There were a lot of pests, we had to buy candles to drive them away. There was no electricity in the last day and no water...we could not even have a shower before the check out The kitchen utensil were old and no additional utensils which can help to prepare food Kitchen living room and dining has no fan and ac, it was really hot with no air in these rooms

Private pool

Not very clean. Bed uncomfortable

Overall it was not cleaned and I rate the private pool that was available and good breakfast as one of the few positives.

I am not picky, but this accommodation surprised me and not in a positive way. The promo photos are either very old or cleverly staged. The amenities of the accommodation remembered better times and would definitely need renovation (villa 1). We killed 3 cockroaches during our overnight stay. Also, there was hair in the shower from previous visits, the wifi was problematic and there was nothing to cover ourselves with so we had to take the sheets off other beds. Overall, it should be much tidier. Much better accommodation can be found for the same price (100 euros) for 1 night.

The rooms were dusty, showers were not working, the kitchen and house were not clean at check-in, and an attempt to clean was only made once during our stay. There was also a foul smell coming from the toilets. It was meant to be a self-catering house, but the kitchen was not equipped and was missing basic equipment like a knife.

Easy access, security complex. Private pool

only 2 towels in 3 bedroom house, beds had only fitted sheet on, no duvets/flat sheets.

We like the location and the setting of the villa. The villa is close to the beach. It is also close enough to local amenities. The gardens are kept well and provide the villa with privacy. The villa is spacious.

We have been three times before, unfortunately this time the property hasn't been maintained since our last visit 4 years ago. The bottom of the pool is coming off and the tiles, our pool was the best out of all the properties but still very poor. Throughout the property there are broken fixtures and fittings. The door to the property had a loose handle and was difficult to enter the property. The electric fittings in the master bedroom were loose and the lights were flicking on and off due to loose wiring. The property wasn't cleaned well before our arrival, all of the light shades were full of dead flies. The safe provided had no key. The breakfast provided by the host was good but was either late or non existent some days. Communication was poor between staff.

Staff, location, calm n quiet

Needs renovation and better cleanliness.

Filthy place. Not half what is advertised. Dirt pool, dirty fridge. No free wifi no free cable tv, not even a bed sheet to cover during the night. 2 towels for 4, of which one scratched. Safety concerns with broken elec near the pool. Room not ready on arrival, breakfast not ready the next day (very basic) birds eating the pervious day leftovers in the restaurant kitchen, not clean either.

The pool

The house wasn't clean

Great villas for great price. Clean, comfortable and brilliant private pool for the kids. Good value for money. The adjoining seasons restaurant also excellent and staff so helpful and kind.

Not much but the villas in some areas could do with a little updating. We had 2 villas and 1 had newer doors which made a difference but really no big deal.

Nice swimming pool

Not clean, villa needs maintenance, and lights on the terrace!!!

The hosts were very nice

It seemed old and rusty and the pool didn't seem to be clean

Breakfast was rich, though I o my partook in it limited times

Internet could be better. I had to go outside the house to get full internet signal

Pool was not clean...tv satellite not working

Nous avons apprécié: la grandeur des villas, le service de nettoyage quotidien des villas y compris de la vaisselle, la gentillesse des propriétaires et du personnel, la qualité de la nourriture du restaurant, la sécurité du site. Ce que nous avons moins apprécié: les climatisations des chambres étaient un peu capricieuses,

Die Villen bieten sehr viel Platz (3 Schlafzimmer, 2 Bäder, 1 Extra-WC). Der Privatpool und das gepflegte Grün drum herum waren eindeutig ein Plus! Die Küche ist einfach ausgestattet; manche Kochutensilien fehlen. Bei dem dazugehörigen Restaurant kann man unheimlich gut und auch preiswert Essen gehen! Das inkludierte Frühstück ist ein Minibuffet (Toast, 1 Marmelade, Butter, lecker Obstsalat, Pfannkuchen, Kastenkuchen, Tee, Kaffee). Auf Wunsch werden Eierspeisen frisch zubereitet. Die Herzlichkeit der Gastgeber, die auch gerne beim Organisieren von Touren und Transfers behilflich sind, muss erwähnt werden. Bei dieser Unterkunft hat man eine große Privatsphäre auf der einen Seite (durch den Platz, den Privatpool mit großzügiger Terrasse und die Möglichkeit der Selbstversorgung), aber auch den familiären Anschluss durch die freundlichen Gastgeber auf der anderen Seite. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Hinweis: Zum Strand sind es fußläufig 6-8 Minuten. Die Unterkunft liegt direkt an der Küstenstraße. Den Verkehr bekommt man ein wenig mit.

Die Villas sind durch eine Straße vom Meer getrennt. Der Public Beach ist direkt gegenüber, zwischen 2 Hotels gelegen und in 5 Minuten zu Fuß zu erreichen. Die Villas sind sehr groß und problemlos für eine 6-köpfige Familie oder 2 bis 3 Pärchen zu bewohnen. Einige Einrichtungsgegenstände sind in die Jahre gekommen und die Kochausstattung ist etwas spärlich (eine Pfanne, ein Topf), aber wenn etwas fehlt, muss man sich melden und es wird besorgt. Das Frühstück ist landestypisch auf gehobenem Niveau. Das Essen im eigenen Restaurant ist sehr gut und wird auch gerne von umliegenden Hotelgästen in Anspruch genommen. Das Personal ist stets freundlich und hilfsbereit. Der eigene Pool vor jeder Villa ist natürlich nicht zu verachten und wurde von uns gerne genutzt.

The staff was extremely helpful,private swimming pool is a big advantage! Cleaning every day, 5 mins from the public beach. Breakfast was quite poor, not enough variety, without own car difficult to get to the nearest town to do shopping or reach some bars.

If you don't have high expectations you shouldn't be disappointed. The villa is a good size for a family of 4 and the pool is good for a cool down or play with smaller kids. Not for 'swimming' though. The restaurant serves a variety of tasty food and friendly staff. We ate there regularly, though sitting at the same table for breakfast we saw that on most occasions the table hadn't been cleaned from the night before. Not such a big deal for us but I'm sure would be for others. Breakfast was limited and at times crawling with ants though, to be fair, that could be down to the lack of care taken by other residents. Cereal (2 types), fruit salad, pancakes (not always available for us), some sort of savoury offering, a juice, toast and jam ....but you're able to order an omelette which helped me for sure. Friendly an amenable hosts seemingly keen on ensuring your stay is a good one. Special mention for staff members Avis and Catherine

Amazing place amazing people can’t wait to go back again

Nabijheid strand 24/7 bewaking/omheind terrein Staat meubelen/inrichting: aantal zaken beschadigd en ontbreken. Mooie omgeving, veel natuur en mooi strand Seasons restaurant prima, uitgebreide kaart. Eigenaar echte gastheer, hij maakte met zijn warme welkom in het restaurant onze rommelige checkin meer dan goed. Mbt ontvangst, in bevestiging stond checkin via Seasons maar daar werden we weggestuurd naar ingang villaterrein. Ontvangst villa heel vluchtig, geen tour. Medewerker bleek 1e dag te hebben. Houd rekening met heel beperkt serviesgoed, schoonmaak villa niet naar westerse maatstaven (bezem/mop), geen oven. Bij navraag blikopener en droogrek zijn deze geregeld. Fijne service.

The villa was nice and spacious and very well laid out. It was private and a relaxing place to stay. The three bedrooms all had double beds in them, it would be better for us if one of the rooms has two single beds in it rather than a double, as we were travelling with three children. The villa could do with a re-decoration inside as it is becoming to look a bit tired and worn. Nothing that a bit of paint could not sort out. Also it does really need a deep clean and the en-suite shower cubicle tray could do with replacing. Nothing excessive to bring the standard back up. The advertised WIFI is intermittent and slow and needs bringing up to today's expected standards. The Owner of the property and the staff are very friendly and genuine people and will do anything to help you. There is an excellent restaurant on site and the staff and food are excellent.

Good experience. However, the breakfast was the same all the three mornings.

The property and location was good. The property was spacious & very good privacy. I did not like the cutlery provided- we had 4 mugs and 3 of them were chipped & stained. We could easily get hurt. I did not like the fact that towels are not changed on a daily basis. The staffs were very helpful especially the security guy. He was very helpful as well as the kitchen staff. Breakfast was good - but they could make a slight change to the menu daily. I had to see the owner at her villa for check in. There is also a lack of leaflets on what to do around. Overall I had a good stay at the Orchid Villa and would probably go again as the villa itself is very good.

The owner and his staff displayed the greatest hospitality I've encountered on the island. The food on site was amazing and the value for the price can't be beat. Would definitely stay there again!

Séjour agréable..bonne compréhension des propriétaires

When travelled on road by car, I liked the greenery view mostly sugarcane plantation. Vegetables & fruits such as pineapple, lychee & mangoes. Smooth traffic on the road. People are very cool. Beach with white sand and very clean. Blue bay very nice and bottom glass boat excellent to seen many types of coral and colour fishes.

Wir hatten die Villa zu dritt gebucht und hatten jede Menge Platz. Ganz besonders toll fanden wir das Personal, wir wurden sehr freundlich begrüßt und von Chef bis Service und Sicherheitspersonal waren alle stets gut gelaunt und haben uns jeden Wünsche erfüllt (weil unser Ausflug schon früh Morgens startete, wurde uns das Frühstück z.B. schon früher in die Villa gebracht). Der Chef organisierte uns Taxis und Ausflüge, wir durften unsere Koffer noch einen Tag in seinem Haus unterstellen. Die Villen sind sehr großzügig und für den Preis bekommt man mehr als erwartet, nur die Zimmer könnten gemütlicher eingerichtet sein. Klimaanlagen in jedem Raum und umsonst (das ist in dieser Preiskategorie nicht selbstverständlich) Insgesamt sehr empfehlenswert!

Très propre et très bon confort. Personnel très aimable et donnant des renseignements utiles.

The location is fantastic, a short walk to Belle Mare beach which is one of the best in Mauritius - miles and miles of lovely powder white sand and Turquoise Ocean. The villas are spacious and well equipped and offer great value. There is a restaurant on site which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner at reasonable cost. I cannot speak highly enough about the very friendly and helpful staff who made my stay far more comfortable than I had ever hoped.

We were here with our son and it was a nice stay. The staff was great and the house big and comfatable. We had a beautiful swimingpool at our house and enough sun all day. Only some more kichen gear, would have been helpful with cooking and there was no BBQ.

Orchid Villas isn't a hotel, but a collection of 6 bed villas on a gated plot, with one in which the owners live and also a larger building housing the restaurant. As such, the service from the owner Ravin and his team is very personal, accessible and welcoming, and dining is so convenient if you want to eat on site. Daily maid service keeps the rooms spotless and delivers breakfast items for the following day. Each villa has a small shallow pool which is good for cooling down (but a little too small to swim in) and is cleaned daily. Towels are provided for bathrooms and pool. Villas are screened from each other by trees which are much more mature than the pictures show. All in all, an easy place to stay in.
