Wir waren vom 17.11. - 01.12.2019 zu Gast. Alles klappte vollkommen reibungslos und Charonne war super freundlich und kümmerte sich um alles. Das Haus ist wirklich super ausgestattet und wir konnten unsere Zeit genießen. Immer wieder überraschte sie uns mit kulinarischen Aufmerksamkeiten. Nachdem ein Fahrad eine Reifenpanne hatte wurde sogar ein neues Fahrrad gekauft. Wir können die Unterkunft wirklich weiterempfehlen.

Très bon séjour dans cette charmante villa, extrêmement bien située. Tout était très bien et la communication avec la propriétaire simple et efficace. Nous avons profité au maximum de la piscine et des commodités de la villa (tout y est pour se préparer de bons petits plats). Un vrai régal.

Maison confortable et vaste. Les repas sur la véranda sont très agréables. Charonne nous avait gentiment préparé un excellent plat pour notre arrivée, qui fut le bienvenu car nous n'avions pas déjeuné. Le "Dodo market", non loin de la maison, est une aubaine!

Wir haben 3 Wochen in der Villa Belifage verbracht und wurden schon bei der Anreise sehr herzlich empfangen. Sogar ein kleines Gericht wurde für uns zubereitet und Getränke bereitgestellt. Das Haus hat alles, was man als Selbstversorger benötigt, es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Alle 2 Tage wurde saubergemacht - liebe Grüße und herzlichen Dank an dieser Stelle an Charonne . Ein winziger Kritikpunkt ist die Beleuchtung im oberen Bad, das insgsamt doch schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen ist. Alles in allem waren wir sehr zufrieden und haben uns in Albion sehr wohl gefühlt.

Like a home away from home, but even better. Owner provides prompt communication & welcoming hospitality. You’re stay here will a be dream.

Nous avons passé deux magnifiques semaines dans cette superbe villa. Tout y est afin que l’on puisse passer d’agréables vacances reposantes. Un grand merci à Françoise et Charonne qui nous a concocté de très bons petits plats mauriciens. C’est avec grand plaisir que nous reviendrons

Notre premier séjour à l'Ile Maurice a été réussi grâce au choix de cette belle villa. Dans un quartier au calme, nous avons apprécié la piscine au retour de nos journées de visite de l'île. La maison est très grande, très propre, et rien n'a été oublié pour le confort de ses occupants. La présence de Charonne et sa gentillesse sont un vrai plus, et ses petits plats... Hummm! Le seul bémol est que nous aurions aimé un panier d'accueil avec par exemple le petit déjeuner ou bien de quoi diner légèrement vu notre heure d'arrivée. Possédant moi-même un gite dans le sud de la France, je mets à disposition un panier d'accueil avec yaourts, café, thé cacao, lait jus de fruit et fruits, et une brioche, ainsi qu'une bouteille de muscat spécialité de mon village, et il est très apprécié de mes vacanciers .... Mais sinon tout était parfait ! Merci à Françoise et à Charonne !

Nous avons passé deux magnifiques semaines de vacances dans cette superbe propriété très fonctionnelle et très bien située. La location d'une voiture est indispensable pour permettre de découvrir la région et le pays. Charonne, l'employée de maison, nous a concocté de délicieux plats mauriciens et elle est d'une grande gentillesse. Nous avons profité pleinement des infrastructures, terrasse, piscine et la maison est équipée de tout le nécessaire pour permettre de passer un agréable séjour. Nous ne pouvons que vivement vous la recommander.

Wer die Ruhe sucht ist hier perfekt aufgehoben. Das Haus ist im Angebot sehr gut getroffen und lässt keine Wünsche offen. Alles verlief vollkommen problemlos. Unvergessen die Sonnenuntergänge am Strand von Albion, der in ca. 5 Min. zu Fuß zu erreichen ist. Der Sandstrand lädt zum Baden und Schnorcheln ein. Im Dodo Supermarkt ( ca. 5 Min. mit dem Auto ) gibt es wirklich alles. Von Albion aus lässt sich die Insel Mauritius mit dem Auto sehr gut erkunden: - Wunderschön die Strände von Trou aux Biches und Grand Baie - Unvergesslich der Blick vom Cap Malheureux auf den Indischen Ozean - Shoppen in der Mall of Mauritius bei Eureka - landschaftlich ganz anders der Nationalpark im Süden - Highlight für die Kids Wellensurfen bei Tamarin……. Diese Aufzählung lässt sich gefühlt noch endlos weiterführen. Mauritius ist wirklich eine Reise wert. Besonders Hervorheben möchten wir noch Francoise unsere Gastgeberin, die uns sehr nett empfangen hat und uns jederzeit mit Rat und Tat unterstützt hat. Wir kommen gerne wieder

We spent a marvelous 2 weeks on our favorite island, Mauritius. Albion is perfectly located for excursions, and has a large and beautiful beach that invites to swimming and snorkeling. The villa is within a vivid and pleasant neighborhood. Though it isn’t new, it has great character and possesses everything it takes to make the stay comfortable. We loved to use the bikes provided to get our daily pain and croissants for breakfast! Most remarkable was Françoise‘ exceptional hospitality, we felt every bit like friends coming for a visit! And Charonne, the house keeper, was absolutely lovely and helpful, and also a great cook. We’re looking forward to seeing this wonderful place again!!

Wir waren zu dritt, mit unserer kleinen Tochter (4 Jahre) für 6 Nächte in der Villa von Francoise. An- und Abreise waren sehr einfach. Francoise hatte sich um Alles gekümmert. Wir sind schon um 5 Uhr morgens gelandet und waren schon um 7:30 am Haus. Alles kein Problem. Das Haus liegt in einer ruhigen Wohngegend. Zu einem größeren Supermarkt (DoDo) sind es mit dem Auto nur 5 Minuten. Der Strand ist ähnlich nah und vielleicht 15 Minuten zu Fuß. Albion ist nicht sehr touristisch, eine schöne Abwechslung zu vielen anderen Orten in Mauritius. Ein eigenes Auto ist allerdings sehr zu empfehlen. Wir haben mehrere Ausflüge zu anderen Stränden (Le Morne, Flic-en-Flac) und ins Innere der Insel zum Wandern (Black River National Park, Ebony Forest Reserve) und auch zum La Vanille Nature Park gemacht. Alles sehr lohnende Ziele. Und nach etwas Gewöhnen ans Links-Fahren ist das Autofahren in Mauritius auch wirklich überhaupt kein Problem. Entgegen vieler anderer Berichte hatten wir auch nach Einbruch der Dunkelheit (im August wird es zwischen 17:45 und 18:15 sehr schnell dunkel) keine Probleme. Das Haus ist sehr gut ausgestattet und hätte Platz für deutlich mehr Personen als uns drei. Die Küche ist insbesondere sehr gut ausgestattet. Es ist überhaupt alles da. Einzig an die vielen Hunde in der Nachbarschaft muß man sich etwas gewöhnen. Gerade nachts ist zeitweise ordentlich Alarm. Dies ist allerdings ein Problem in Mauritius insgesamt... hoffentlich schafft man es, dies etwas in den Griff zu bekommen. Bis jetzt haben die Behörden hier offensichtlich ziemlich versagt. Insgesamt hatten wir einen tollen Aufenthalt und können das Haus nur weiterempfehlen.

What a lovely place Villa Belifage Verte is! We loved every minute of our stay and can highly recommend it. First of all, the propriataire Françoise is a real gem - she is a very nice and lovely person and responded in a very timely manner to all our requests. By coincidence, we could meet her personally and it was a real warm meeting and she provided a lot of tips for our stay. There is also a team of housekeepers on spot are just lovely and show up every other day (or as you'd like) to clean the house, pool, garden and even offer to cook dinner if you want - we took them up on their offer two times and it was absolutely delicious (real local creole cuisine)! The Villa Belifage Verte itself is a wonderful place in the small, but cozy village Albion at the west coast of Mauritius and fulfilled all our desires: it's a big villa with an amazing pool, lovely garden (with beautiful flowers and coconut palm trees), a huge patio for breakfast, lunch and dinner, great and big bed rooms (3), two bath rooms and a fully equipped kitchen with a big fridge. For us, everything was there. Also, we had a rental car (highly recommended for this place but also to be able to discover the island, even though the bus system is working well), and you can park it easily inside the huge garden in the shadows of palm trees (automatic garage doors, which is very convenient). If you are looking for a nice place to stay in Mauritius a bit away from all the touristy places, we can highly recommend Ville Belifage 'Verte'! You can't ask for a better host than Françoise nor a better team on spot - thank you for everything! Five stars++!

Die Anzeige entspricht der Wirklichkeit. Wurden sehr herzlich empfangen. Wir haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt. Ein kurzer Weg zum Strand, der für uns der schönste der Insel war. Falls wir nochmal nach Mauritius fahren, würden wir auf jeden Fall zu Francoise gehen.

Nous sommes restés 10j à la villa belifage verte et nous ne regrettons pas du tout! Tout était parfait ! Nous étions avec des bébés de 6 et 8 mois et un enfant de 4ans. La proprio etait aux petits soins et nous a fourni ce dont nous avions besion (siege auto, lit bebe, chaise haute, petit baignoire, clim dans les chambres...) La maison est très bien équipée, surtout la cuisine... ;-) on était vraiment impressionnés! C’etait parfait. La piscine etait juste genialissime: peu chlorée, bien entretenue et entourée de cocotiers. Une adresse fiable, qui plus est pratique si vous voulez sillonner l’ile Maurice Dans tous les sens. Merci à Francoise Claudia et toute la troupe ;-)

Somebody who is looking for a calm place far from the tourism places will like this house very much. We enjoyed very much the hospitality of Françoise, the lovely garden, the big swimming pool and the house with all facilities. We really had a great time and we can fully recommend this place.

I stayed here for 1 week with my wife and 2 kids (ages 15 & 12) in August 2017. Great pool which the kids loved, and benefits from a solar mat which raises the water temperature a few degrees... necessary in August. Plenty of sun loungers and a mature garden makes relaxing around the pool a pleasure. We also loved the verenda/porch area for lazy lunches and an evening beer. The owner's sister checked us in and showed us around the house. Very welcoming and appreciated after a long flight from the UK. Don't expect the Ritz inside... this is a home with charm and character. Don't get me wrong, there are mod-cons like a dishwasher, AC units in rooms, large flat screen TV, washing machine, comfortable beds (not always the case in rentals), wifi, etc! The area is very residential and quiet which suited us perfectly for our 1st week on the island. Couple of small grocery stores nearby, a few good restaurants, and some food stalls. The beach in walking distance from the house isn't very good (rocky and we found it quite dirty) but don't despair!! Go to the one near Club Med, it's on Albion beach but a nicer part (and only a few mins by car). We did a few trips since we had a car and Albion is a great location for access to many places. We even made it over to Ile Aux Cerfs on the east which was around 1hr 15mins hours each way, and Le Morne at the SW of the island, around 1 hour. The Botanical Gardens are around 40 mins depending on how you navigate through Port Louis! There is a large supermarket (Monoprix) along with some other modern shops on the A3 road between Bambous and Casela Nature Park (around 20 mins away). We combined that with a couple of hours at Wolmar public beach, well worth a trip (easy free parking) if you want to see another section of the coast, but in a less touristy section than Flic-en-Flaq. Last, but definitely not least, Francoise (the owner) was a joy to deal with. She provided lots of information and answered my many emails (with patience) leading up to our stay. She even greeted me at the villa via video call to ensure everything was ok! Thanks Francoise for a relaxing and comfortable first week on this beautiful island!

Nous avons passé deux semaines de rêve dans la villa Albion, tout est conforme aux informations laissées sur le site et les photos sont le reflet de la réalité. La piscine est impressionnante, impeccable de propreté et entourée d'une végétation luxuriante: une vrai plaisir pour les yeux quand on est installé sous la varangue à regarder les enfants jouer dans la piscine. La maison est immense, avec une cuisine très bien équipée, des chambres spacieuses avec une literie confortable. Madame Bozelle est aux petits soins pour ses locataires qu'elle considère comme ses hôtes et a fait en sorte que notre séjour se déroule à merveille. Elle nous a ainsi mis en relation avec le service traiteur à domicile de Dominique Duval et nous avons été livrés tous les soirs, à demeure, des plats mauriciens tous plus délicieux les uns des autres pour la somme modique de 125 roupies la part très copieuse. Merci à Ragini pour son sourire et sa gentillesse, son efficacité dans le rangement et le nettoyage de la maison. Nous avons apprécié de séjourner sur la côte ouest car cela nous a permis de découvrir un côté plus authentique de l'île Maurice, la côte est et le nord étant tout aussi joli mais plus touristique. La situation de la maison nous a permis de rayonner sur une grande partie de l'île sans aucun souci, nous avons visité et apprécié le jardin botanique de pamplemousse, le Morne-Brabant, Chamarel, les plantations de thé, le musée du la canne et du sucre et le château de Labourdonnais et bien sûr les plages. Deux semaines sont passées très vite et c'est certain, si nous avons le bonheur de revenir, nous poserons nos valises chez Madame Bozelle.

Take a tall glass, half fill it with ice, add a good glug of white rum, fill the rest with lemonade (not the brown stuff that my Mauritian grandfather referred to as 'cola-cola; that would be 'Cuba Libre', add a twist of that fruity small citron from Rodrigues Island and you have yourself a Moris Libre. Now you will need an elegant, authentic creole veranda to sit under to savour your Moris Libre. I know just the place, it is attached to Villa Belifage II at Albion. Now you are set for a tropical holiday. The veranda of this smart villa overlooks the swimming pool and the neat tropical garden with several fruit trees. We spent several hours every day of our holiday during Mid August to Mid September whiling the time away reading, chatting, discussing, eating, drinking and so on under this very same veranda. The rest of the villa is also carefully well appointed; all as described on the HomeAway site. However what you won't find there is the little attention to details that Madam and Monsieur Bozelle have invested in the well being of their guests. Yes we felt like guests rather than 'tenants'. Details such as the availability of a local mobile phone, the basket of books many by local authors, ample crockeries (in including a tureen) and cutleries, pots and pans of every description and dimension, glasses galore and god quality sharp knives. Yes we were sharing the home of someone who cooks. If like me you are a coffee fanatic you have at your disposal, a caffetier, a moka and a nespresso type machine. The hand picked staff team is headed by the inimitable and charming Veronique who welcomed us and waited for us as we were late arriving at the villa. Veronique also came to see us every day, with that charming greeting welcome Mauritian ritual of a kiss on both cheeks, Ragini who showed us many acts of kindness, went about her business unobtrusively and efficiently. Ti Maurice, the gardener found us an out of season mango. Taking a walk with Veronique and Jean Paul around the village of Albion is a delight, one has to exchange a few words with so many people and the know many people...Giving each other the time of day is a tradition here..coze cozer in the local lingo.
