About this property

HANDILOFT DODO

## Space

Ideally located 150 meters from the Saint-Leu lagoon and a stone's throw from the main street in the city center, the DODO apartment is a new luxury apartment with one bedroom, a Jacuzzi and a large outdoor terrace decorated by the famous local artist Yann Le Gall.
Thanks to the sofa in the living room that converts into a real queen-size bed, you can stay there for 2 or 4 people.

Guided tour of this 48m² and its varangue of 7m²:

The apartment is located on the first floor of a new residence and has 2 covered and secured parking spaces. The access to the apartment is entirely adapted to people with reduced mobility and all the housing was conceived to facilitate their displacements and their daily comfort.

The entrance to the apartment is through a spacious air-conditioned living room, equipped with an XXL smart TV and an Italian sofa bed (160x200cm). The furniture comes from India and brings a cachet and authenticity to this beautiful apartment. In a cupboard in the entrance hall, a washing machine with dryer will bring a real bonus to your stay.
Adjacent to the living room, the kitchen is fully equipped: dishwasher, fridge-freezer, microwave, Nespresso coffee maker, kettle, toaster, electric griddle, rice cooker and many other kitchen utensils.
The large air-conditioned bedroom is equipped with a 180x200cm bed with a new Bultex mattress, a beautiful Indian dressing table and a large dressing room (with shelves and closet). The dressing table also serves as an office (printer on demand, subject to pricing).
The bathroom has a large Italian shower and a basin. The toilet is independent.

Finally, outside, welcome to this beautiful area of 70m ² of open air where you can indulge in the pleasure of a spa for 4 people, a shower, two deckchairs in the shade of umbrellas or convivial moments on the varangue.

From the outside terrace, a gate gives direct access to the small alley that leads to the beach.

As you will have noticed, the apartment bears its name well... since the wall had the privilege to be decorated by the rising star of the street graffiti artists of Reunion, the very fashionable artist Yann Le Gall. He specially imagined this fresco with shimmering colors for the apartment, and alludes to the dodos, these famous endemic birds of the island and unfortunately disappeared since the 1740s. If you don't see any, don't worry, the dodo beers will be waiting for you in the fridge when you arrive.


To summarize or to go further, this accommodation built in 2022 and put in rent on December 1st has :
- 2 private parking spaces
- Wi-Fi: very high speed fiber with professional subscription

Location:
DODO is located in the lower part of Saint Leu, at the southern entrance of the city center and its many bars/restaurants, and 153 meters from the beach. Close to all amenities: bakeries, pharmacies, greengrocers, butcher's, shops, post office, banks, wine cellar, etc. Less than 5 minutes away by car, you will be able to shop in the hypermarket of Le Portail.
In a few minutes, you can enjoy paragliding and discover the turtle observatory at Kelonia.

La Réunion île sauvage et exceptionnelle belle.Saint Leu est bien situé pour visiter cette ile

Deux semaines de randonnées et on est loin d’avoir tout vu,on a « effleuré « cette île. Pas de marche à plat le moindre parcours comprend 4 à 500 mètres de dénivelé voire beaucoup plus mais quel plaisir! Quelques plages protégées.
Stayed 14 nights in Mar 2024
