Description:
The enticing Villa Calice is located on the wild south coast of Praslin on Anse Takamaka. The beautiful surroundings of the house feature lush vegetation and a delightful atmosphere. Here, you will have the chance to enjoy the nature of the Seychelles, far from your everyday life and without any disturbing background noises. This atmosphere is completed by the lush green hills in the background.
The term 'Calice' is derived from the Calice du Pape trees, or the Chalice of the Pope trees. The villa that uses this name is well-equipped for self-catering purposes, including a fully-fitted kitchen, a living room, two bathrooms, and four bedrooms. The interior offers a high degree of comfort thanks to bright walls, exposed beams, colourful tiles and cosy furniture. Two of the bedrooms are located on the first floor, and share a shower and toilet. These upstairs bedrooms are best-suited for a family, as they can be connected via an open doorway. Both rooms have been elegantly arranged, and are equipped with a fan each. One of the rooms also offers incredible views of the deep blue ocean and the garden.
The two ground-floor bedrooms also share a bathroom, and possess one fan each. There is a third shower for a quick wash-down after a long day, in the outdoor area. Back inside, the living room contains a flatscreen TV and DVD player, as well as a radio. The kitchen is bright and spacious, with everything you need on a daily basis, including a coffee machine. The dining table is located indoors, near the kitchen, only separated from the cooking area by a wooden bench-top. Of course, you can also sit on your private veranda at any time of day or night and take in the peaceful atmosphere of the garden.
The Villa Calice is perfectly-suited to large families or a group of couples. Thankfully, the villa can only be booked by one party at a time, even if there are just two of you. Guests will always have the whole villa to themselves, with any excess bedrooms locked for the duration of the stay.
The surrounding area of the villa is beautiful, and numerous Seychellois families live in the area, giving you the opportunity to experience the authentic Seychellois lifestyle first-hand. The nearby semi-private beach is just a few steps from the villa, and the island's boat jetty and airport are around 15 minutes away each by car or taxi. The nearest town is about 10 minutes' drive away, or there is a reliable bus service that stops right in front of the villa. Finally, there are a wide range of sports activities that you can try out on Praslin, either on the beach or at one of the larger hotels. The closest diving school is just 200m away from the villa.

The location of this privately owned home is undoubtedly ideal. It is fast everywhere on the island and still has its peace (except the noise of the fruit bats at night;)) The cleanliness left there and there to be desired. (Ant street in the bathroom, blood stains on sleeping mosquito nets) Family quite friendly and helpful. Due to a break-in carried out in the absence (stolen smartphone), we would visit this property and not recommend. Translation (DE): GoogleTranslate
Despite the efforts of Linda, the sister-in-law of the owner who lives in Canada, the house unfortunately is not up to par. Interior very old and strong musty smell in the rooms !! I am sorry to write these words but if it can make react the owners who with few means could undertake some works in order to offer a more adequate service !! Translation (FR): GoogleTranslate
