    It's not 5 star, but I'd rate it 5 star because it's all you need. Spacious room, outdoor patio, stylish bathroom and shower. Close to restaurants and beach.

    There was no briefing by Lodge Administrator about some other entertaining sides around ,eg we only saw on Sunday as we leave further down on south side there is plenty of boats for hiring for trips and some lot of good restaurants. It must be standard to give visitors induction and briefing about the area especially foreigners

    The room was well attended and clean, beach fantastic

    There was no fridge in our room, there is a communal fridge in the communal kitchen but it is rather gross as everyone puts there things in there. Even just a small fridge in the room would be fine, just to put some milk and drinks in.

    The rooms are comfortable, clean and the balconies are fantastic to have a coffee on in the mornings and a drink at night. It is close to restaurants, shops and the beach. It is also right by the bus stop to Grand baie.

    Located in a quiet side street just off the main road and very close to Pereybere public beach. My room was spotlessly clean and was serviced everyday. The staff were friendly and helpful. There are a handful of restaurants on the main road nearby.

    Small things - no shower gel or shampoo in the bathroom. No coffee, only tea in the room

    Enter by the little zen pool, check in with the friendly staff then relax on your street side balcony or head to the beach to watch the sunset. Very comfortable and clean but won’t break the bank. This little place is set slightly back from the main road so it’s fairly quiet (although there is a little street noise) Conveniently close to the beach, bus stop, supermarket etc

    Not very accommodating staff, no one working past a certain hour which can prove difficult. One of the lights in the bulkhead above the curtain blew with an extremely loud pop waking up our baby leaving us without power for what would have been the entire night (since there were no staff present) if not for a bit of searching to find the breaker switches. The bathroom is poorly designed and leaks water everywhere into the living space despite the design supposedly supporting it. Absolutely no way to clean the water afterwards other than to let it dry or use one of the limited towels supplied. This may be common, but needing to insert our key card to receive power is very inconvenient, ESPECIALLY when only given one card despite booking for two guests.

    Great location just a short walk to the beach and great food spots nearby. Crêpe restaurant right downstairs too! Spacious rooms!

    Honestly there was nothing to dislike, it was a lovely stay.

    We really liked Dodola Lodge's location, bed, washroom and the host. In comments, people have written that the bed is small..can understand as it could be for people who are extremely tall. (6.1" and above) However for Asians, i feel it is a good fit. We felt room was spacious. People can choose this location as it is very near to the bus and taxi stop. Also, both French and Indian cuisine restaurants are just within 7-15 minutes walking distance. (Would suggest to try La Brunchetta for breakfast and Nitzana for lunch. For Pizza, one can try Mississippi Fried chicken - I am pure vegetarian and these places really worked out well for me) Buses take u directly to Mont Choisy, Grand Baie beaches which is within half an hour and is in one straight road. Pereybere beach which is just a minute from Dodola lodge is nice to see the sunset.

    The bathroom windows didn't seal when closed allowing mosquitos an entry point so we bought tape and covered the spots so the room was mosquito free from then on.

    After doing lots of research about where to stay in Mauritius we choose Perebeye and the Dodola Lodge. The room was perfect. We choose one with a kitchenette. There was a drying rack on the patio although the cloths dried best in the room as it was humid outside. They have a shared kitchen with a fridge and cooking area if you didn’t go the kitchenette route but to have everything you need in the room was amazing, glassware, plates, utensils, mugs, kettle, fridge, hand towel, cutting board, microwave and counter space. They even provide a sponge and liquid soap. The only thing missing was an ice cube tray. We improvised and made ice using small paper cups and at one point even aluminum muffin tins. The hotel provides soap but no shampoo or conditioner. The shower has plenty of hot water and the aircon works great. There are black out curtains and a safe in the room. Beach towels are available at 50MR each and you can keep them as long as you like. Mitch was helpful in any info we needed and responded to my emails quickly before arrival. The grocery store is less than a 5 minute walk away and has everything you could want. The fresh baked baguette ( 9MR ) was a staple for sure. A 6 pack of phoenix beer about 375 MR. The location is great, and since on a side street very quiet. 2 min walk to an ATM, fried chicken, pizza, crepes, 3 min walk to the bus and an amazing food truck at the beach, 4 min walk to the taxi stand, 4 or 5 restaurants and then the super market. The beach is great, crowded with locals enjoying, picnicking, a pentanque court and playing music. The sun sets right into the ocean – the view is incredible. The bus to Grand Baie takes 5 minutes and is 24 MR. In terms of exercise by walking there are no side walks and the cars go whizzing by, if you bring water shoes you can start on the beach and continue to the right and walk all the way to another long stretch of beach.

    The air condition was not very strong. There is no fridge in the room :( The beach just front to the hotel is not that good (despite what google rating says). It is too crowded and the less crowded parts are not easily accessible.

    Room is very nice and spacious. Wifi worked very well. The property is very safe with gate and a night guard - not sure if necessary but they definitely make sure all is safe. Plenty of nice restaurants around. Private parking lot is just behind the building.
