Best for
A good fit for independent travellers and families who prefer to self-cater, travellers who want to be close to the water and arrivals and departures, given the short distance to the airport. Check that its location matches how you plan to spend your days before you book.
Location
The listing gives the address as Doffay Estate, Au Cap, Mahe. By its map pin, it is about 2.2 km in a straight line from Anse Royale, about 4.4 km in a straight line from Seychelles International Airport and about 13 km from Victoria.
East Mahé is the coast between the airport and Anse Royale. It is convenient for arrivals and departures, practical rather than glamorous, and has a mix of guest houses, self-catering places and local eateries along the coast road.
Rooms and style at L'échappée du Cap
Room types on the listing are Two-Bedroom Apartment. With a single category, what matters most is the unit’s position and outlook, so ask about them. For self-catering, confirm the kitchen equipment and where the nearest shop is.
Facilities at L'échappée du Cap
On the listing, the headline facilities are beachfront, airport shuttle, family rooms, free WiFi, free parking, facilities for disabled guests and non-smoking rooms. In practice, 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
The east coast road runs close to the shore, and the reef-protected shallows suit paddling more than long swims at low tide. Self-catering means shopping for groceries, which in Seychelles can be limited outside the larger villages. Sea and weather conditions vary with the south-east and north-west monsoons, so ask the property what to expect on your dates.
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.
