Villa Kordia: Location and Description
Villa Kordia is located in Pointe aux Sel on the south-east coast of the main island of Mahé. It consists of two separate Creole-style houses set in a luxurious garden with kordia trees, palms, shrubs and flowers. Fairyland Beach is just a stone's throw away, and the main beach, Anse Royale, is a 5-minute drive away. Nearby are several restaurants, a bus stop, banks, cash machines, souvenir shops, a craft village and a hospital.
Well-stocked shops are within walking distance. Guests can self-cater or eat at one of the nearby restaurants.
Villa Kordia offers a quiet holiday experience in a village setting.
The gardens of Villa Kordia are laid out around huge granite boulders, typical of the landscape of the central islands of the Seychelles. These rocks, expansive lawns and a small stream form the setting for a variety of trees that are both useful and ornamental. Mango, golden apple, banana, papaya, breadfruit, starfruit, avocado and guava regularly yield abundant harvests, while coconuts are available all year round. In addition to the coconuts, various palm species have been planted, including bottle palms, which originally came from Mauritius. There they are now extremely rare and endangered. The gardens also host fragrant frangipani, a hedge of bougainvillea and trees with scarlet cordia flowers, after which the villa is named. This patchwork of trees and lawns attracts a variety of Seychelles birds.
