Facilities at Captain's Villa
The listing’s main facilities are beachfront, restaurant, airport shuttle, family rooms, room service, breakfast, free WiFi and free parking. In practice, meals or drinks are available on site, an airport shuttle is listed, though it is usually arranged and charged separately and parking is listed, which helps if you hire a car.
Trade-offs and what to know
This side of Mahé is quiet and spread out, so a hire car makes a real difference. Self-catering means shopping for groceries, which in Seychelles can be limited outside the larger villages. Seychelles has two broad monsoon seasons, and wind and sea conditions on any given beach change with them.
Getting there and getting around
International flights arrive at Seychelles International Airport on the east coast of Mahé. Buses cover most of the island, and hire cars (driving on the left) or taxis give more freedom.
