We spent the first week of February 2013 at Villa Dorado and enjoyed it very much. It is situated within 15 mins driving from the airport. Coming from the airport turn left and keep on following that road and you will find VD on your left. There are a few good restaurant nearby and also some real nice beaches. The... More

Small guesthouse with very good location on the beach. Warm welcome and services offered by Zack and his team. Realxing atmosphere and a homely feel. On the down side is some noise from traffic and no restaurants within walking distance. You can get around very easily by the public buses that runs all day but unfortunately not at night. Thus...

I stayed at Villa Dorado for 9 nights including Christmas and New Year's Eve 2012. I couldn't choose a better place!!! The villa appealed to me over any of the fancy resorts around Mahe Island and it had everything what I was looking for. The villa is perfectly located - just few steps from the beach, very specious, comfortably furnished,... More

Stayed for 4 nights December- had planned 8 but had to move to something less basic. If like us you do not want a Resort and you want "feet in the sand" this is a perfect location. The beach here is beautiful in terms of nature, photography but not the best for swimming as so shallow. Having explored the island... More

Whilst in the Seychelles for a wedding, I needed to find somewhere for one night and after a bit of browsing, this place came up. It was a very late booking and didn't know what to expect but within hours, Zack responded asking when I was going to arrive. This place is stunning with amazing views straight onto the beach....

The breakfast was just awesome, beach is just in front of the villa, a grocery (Kumar & Kumar) is just 1 minute walk, bus stop is just outside the... More

Hi all, If you are looking for a great B&B this is it. Friendly, helpful, 'centrally' located this place is good value for money, meaning you don't pay for things you don't need. Price was perfect, not too much, not too little. The breakfast is also interesting with lots of different island fruits. The beach is 10 meters from the... More

We've had a lovely time. The location is really nice, with the ocean right outside your window. The room are confy and clean. All the staff, starting from the manager Zack, is really warm and helpful without being intrusive. Breakfast is great as well, with a special metion for the homemade jam. Strongly recommended.

On villa it is very pure,... More
