Villa Scalina is in a quiet residential lane, a five-minute walk from the lagoon beach and close to everyday essentials. You get the calm of a village with quick access to Grand Baie and Pereybere for dining and shopping. That balance of sunshine, swimmable lagoon, and convenience is why we chose Calodyne.

What makes this property unique
Villa Scalina is a grand, historic residence, the former Governor’s House of Calodyne, thoughtfully restored for contemporary coastal living. Behind the gates you’ll find privacy, space, and a tropical garden dotted with seasonal fruit trees, creating the feel of a small estate just moments from the lagoon.
The villa offers seven generous, en-suite bedrooms, allowing every guest the comfort of a private retreat. Sunlight fills the living and dining areas, and doors open to the pool terrace for long, lazy days outdoors. A panoramic rooftop terrace crowns the house with a 120-degree ocean view, perfect for golden-hour sundowners and starry Mauritian nights.
For those who love to cook (or be cooked for), the professional kitchen features BORA gas and induction cooking and a 90-cm Miele oven. Our concierge can arrange a private chef for breakfast only or full board, as well as housekeeping, airport transfers, car hire, boat days, and in-villa wellness on request.
Practical details have been designed to the same standard as the luxuries: fast Wi-Fi throughout, strong water pressure, clear house information, and a large private parking area suitable for several cars. Despite the seclusion, you are within easy walking or short driving distance of beaches, supermarkets, cafés, and some of the north coast’s best hotels and restaurants.
Villa Scalina combines heritage, scale, and service, a refined base for families, friends, and retreats who want a serene, sun-kissed stay in one of Mauritius’s most desirable and reliably sunny enclaves.
