By far the cleanest place I stayed in the country, the team here is friendly and will try to help and accommodate you as much as possible. If you are looking for a super quiet place to rest in a clean, well-distributed, isolated location, this is for you. Located at the extreme south of Mahe, the beach is across the street, and the place is surrounded by mountains and forest, with tranquil nights away from the commercial hotspots. Ask about the meal plans before you arrive to make preparations, or consider getting an accommodation with a kitchen, which they also have on the property. Bonus points would be thast it felt safe to be there.

A Tropical Haven!

A beautiful boutique establishment with the most exquisite beach across the way - literally a 2 min walk. The backdrop is a lush range or mountain, if you will, that has all ties of tropical fruit growing. One can drive or walk to several local restaurants, hotel restaurants, or, eat in, making it super convenient. The staff were friendly and the place is a total beach haven!

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.

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.

We stayed 14 amazing days at Villa Dolphin over Christmas and New Year and can honestly say it was one of the best holidays we have ever had. Villa Dolphin was absolutely perfect — our own private terrace facing a lush garden filled with palm trees and beautiful tropical plants, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere from morning to night. The location is ideal — quiet, private, and surrounded by nature, yet wonderfully convenient. Anse Forbans is within walking distance, one of the most beautiful and picturesque beaches, with crystal-clear water ideal for a refreshing dip, snorkeling, or a long walk along soft, powdery white sand. My tip: don’t miss the sunrise — Anse Forbans is on the east side of Mahé, and watching the sun rise over the ocean is truly magical. There is also a local shop within walking distance, perfect if you are self-catering or simply fancy a cold SeyBrew to quench your thirst after a day at the beach. In addition, the DoubleTree by Hilton Seychelles – Allamanda Resort & Spa is just a short walk away, where you can easily walk in for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The villa was spotlessly clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained, and it was professionally cleaned every two days with fresh towels provided each time, which made our stay even more comfortable. There was also a very convenient laundry service available if needed (only 200 Seychelles rupees) — a thoughtful touch, especially for a longer stay. This level of care truly reflects the passio

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.

Eine sehr gepflegte, Gebäudegruppe mit Innenhof zum Gratisparken, einer Hauptvilla, in der eine gemütliche Rezeption, klassizistisch geschmackvolle Relax- und Aufenthaltsräume und eine schöne Frühstücksterasse angesiedelt sind und ebenso gepflegtem Nebenebäude. Frühstück startete jeden Tag mit einem wechselnden stets interessanten und köstlichen Früchtemixteller. Zwei Frühstücksoptionen auswählbar: entweder Eier, Zubereitung nach Wahl, Bohnen oder Tomate, Bacon oder Würstchen. Oder für süße Geschmäcker Pancakes mit verschiedenen Füllungen. Von Amanda über Flo und Velina, ganz besonders aber auch der Mann für alle Fälle, Cosma. Bemühen sich unauffällig und sehr herzlich, alle Wünsche und Anliegen perfekt erfüllen. Am Wochenende gibt es ein Zusatz Service mit Abendessen wahlweise Fischplatte oder Chicken Curry mit köstlichen Beilagen und Dessert zu fairen Preisen. Für Gäste, die Ruhe suchen und den sehr günstig gelegenen, ruhigen und überschaubaren Anse Forbans mit aktuell 31° warmen Wasser schätzen, ist diese Anlage der optimale Ausgangspunkt zur Erkundung der schönsten Strände und das Südost und Südwestküste innerhalb von maximal 20 Minuten Fahrzeit mit dem Mietwagen. Ein Besuch der Oststrände nördlich von Viktoria dauert lediglich 30-40 Minuten Fahrzeit. Über mehrere Querstraßen ist ein Wechsel auf die Westküste sehr einfach. Ein Ort zum Wohlfühlen, der die Sehnsucht nach einer Wiederholung aufkommen lässt

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.

Sehr liebe Gastgeber , das will gesagt sein. Man bekam immer Obst und alle waren extrem freundlich! Jedoch wirklich eine Unterkunft zum Stop machen zwischendurch. Die Betten sind so durchgelegen dass man wirklich Rückenschmerzen bekommt. Die Bettlaken waren nach 12 Tagen richtig gelb vom Dreck und Decken wären tatsächlich schöner gewesen, die gab es nicht. Der Strand schon schön aber es gibt bessere und nach dem Stich einer blauen Feuerqualle an meinem 3 Jährigen Sohnemann war dieser bei mir tabu. Ausserdem muss man alles mit dem Auto machen. Abends zu Fuss irgendwohin ist nicht möglich. Schade. Für einen Stop wie gesagt okay aber definitiv nicht für einen längeren Aufenthalt.

Uns hat der Aufenthalt in der Capitain‘s Villa gut gefallen. Die Lage gegenüber vom Strand und als Ausgangspunkt zur Erkundung des Südens der Insel ist super, das Zimmer geräumig, das Personal sehr nett und das Frühstück als Start in den Tag gut. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis passt. Es ist alles sehr gepflegt und sauber. Wir würden wiederkommen. Besonders der Süden von Mahé ist sehr entspannt und schön. Absolut zu empfehlen!
