The place was amazing, better than expected. Christine the property manager helped with transportation from the airport, arranged to have the rental car delivered at the villa and helped us to feel comfortable and relaxed. A true vacation. The beautiful beach across the street was perfect with the most beautiful sunrise. Looking forward to our return one day.

We had such a wonderful time at Captain’s Villa. We are a family of 5 and had two rooms traveling from American. Both villa’s were very comfortable. AC worked great. Had plenty hot water and great water pressure. Very clean and well stocked!! Everyone that works there is so kind but Christine is the icing on the cake. She is so helpful from the moment of booking until after we had arrived back home. She handled transportation for us, car rental and had loads of suggestions. I feel like I made a new friend!! The Villa’s offer a paid service for home cooked meals at a very reasonable price and let me tell you, they can cook!!! We had fabulous meals!!! Not sure when we will make it back to Seychelles but when we do, Captain’s Villa will be where we stay.

Would recommend this hotel to anyone
Me and my wife had a fantastic time here the hotel had everything we needed and the staff are so friendly and helpful. Rooms here clean and tidy and hotel keeped to a very good standard. We had breakfast and lunch at the hotel and the food was delicious. The beach is beautiful and you have to meet the man on the beach opposite the hotel who sells coconuts he is a really nice guy. We found the people on the island so friendly and helpful like we have never seen before. Would like to thank the staff and owner of the hotel for such a good end to are lovely holiday.

Home away from home in Paradise
Captain's Villa is paradise on the island of Seychelles with fresh fruits with breakfast. The beach is 5 minutes walk away, I suggest swimming in the morning because of the tide. Florise organized a half day tour during my trip to the airport for my PCR Covid 19 Test to leave the Seychelles. The staff are friendly, efficient who keep the villa very clean. You can walk to Koko Zerm snack shop for burgers, pizza's freshly made by Dominique plus there is a shop for water, juice, sodas next to Koko Zerm snackshop. Fast wifi at the villa with friendly atmosphere. I enjoyed the hospitality and seeing the island by car with a local driver. I recommend Joseph as a taxi driver because he knows the best spots for the half day tour on the island of Mahe with stories of the history of a great country. I am looking forward to a future visit to the Seychelles. The rooms are comfortable and very clean with air conditioning, desk with lots of light. I loved the feeling and supporting a family owned\operated villa where you are surrounded by hills, granite rocks, trees with a small community. This not a resort or major hotel chain but offers an islanders experience for visitors. Dinner was delicious and very tasty. Florise is very passionate for her guest and wants everyone to have an awesome, exciting experience. Excellent customer service and customer satisfaction focused bed and breakfast by owners\operators who care about the guest experience with a smile.

We spent an amazing week in Captain's Villa. The owners and the staff made the extra mile to make our stay unforgettable. The beach is just across the road, at night you can hear the ocean from your room. I reccomend to hire a car if you want to explore the island.

Nice villa on Anse Forbans
Nice villa across the road from Anse Forbans beach. Drive slowly after you pass Surfers Beach Cafe as you can easily miss it. Captain’s villa will be @300m away on the right side. Our room was on first floor facing the hill. Nice room with fridge and TV. It has a nice balcony with 2 lounge chairs. Bed was slightly uncomfortable due to the spring mattress. Breakfast is served on a lovely porch opposite the reception. Check-in was quick and we got a 20% voucher for F&B at the nearby Doubletree which was great. Our room had instant coffee/tea facilities but no plates. So if you’r planning to self-cater it’s better to ask for the rooms witch kitchenette which are located in a separate building. This wasn’t very clear for us when we’ve done the booking. This villa has parking for those who are renting cars.

Nice place, would come again if cheaper
The place was great, a little costy as it was possible to get in the area some cheaper options with similar standard + breakfast needed to be paid extra + automatic service charge (why not put it in the original price of breakfast - 10 eur + charge can easily be put as breakfast for 12 euros). The owners are very nice and will take good care of you, the lady prepares good breakfast but in our view a little bit small).

Great villa, great location
My girlfriend and I spent 6 nights at captains villa and can have no real complaints for the price. The room was comfy and clean with a nice shower and balcony. The villa was close to Surfers restaurant - which we highly recommend - and Patrick and Flo offer complementary transport there. The villa is next to a beautiful quiet beach, and is next to a bus stop and small local shop. The New Years party they hosted was the highlight of our trip! We found the breakfast prices were quite expensive, and could hope for better variety of food on offer, however we would recommend the fruit platter!

1ère expérience aux Seychelles réussie !
Merci à Christine et à l'équipe de Captain's Villa pour sa disponibilité, sa qualité de services, sa gentillesse. 1er séjour aux Seychelles et nous avons vécu une excellente expérience. Selon nous, l'hôtel est situé à proximité des plus beaux spots (Anse Intendance, Police Bay, Anse Takamaka et bien d'autres). Petits commerces à proximité. Chambres climatisées, parking privé facile d'accès, etc ... Une chose est sûre, nous y retournerons.
