Labriz lists "Land transfer", would this be from airport to the jetty? So they charge this extra? Can one reliably use taxis as well or is this too unsafe?
As the first boat leaves only at 10am but we arrive already at 6:30 - would earlier times with the private boat or helicopter be possible, any experiences?
Same for the return transfer, 8:30am and 3pm are not many options. Is private boat/helicopter more flexible? (Still trying to decide if leave early or late - next stay is their Northolme hotel)
How accommodative is Labriz for early arrivals checkin, does this work or e.g. reduces chances of upgrades? (I am Diamond) Of course we can hang out at the pool until checkin-time but having the room already is nice too
Thanks all yet again in advance!
The land transfer from airport to jetty is charged separately. We booked this through the hotel and I wouldn’t do it again. Not worth it. Usually 5 star hotels provide nice cars and maybe some cold water. We got basically regular taxi for an up charge. Beat up crappy car with no AC and no bottled water. If you book the heli or private boat transfer I’m sure they would accommodate you’d schedule. If you do the heli it’s right next to the airport so you don’t need to ride to the jetty. We got lucky at the jetty. Someone had booked a private transfer back to Mahe so that boat took all the guests who were already waiting at the jetty over early and we didn’t have to wait for the ferry. I have no idea about early check in but they seemed pretty accommodating there so if your room happens to be available I would guess they would do it for you.
