01 — Welcome

Small fleet.
Big attention.

Otantik Cars is the sister service to Otantik Residence — same family, same standards. We keep our fleet small on purpose, so every car is freshly cleaned, recently serviced, and ready for the road you came here to drive.

No rental counter. No upsell. We meet you with the keys where it suits you — at the airport gate, your hotel lobby, or the front door of wherever you're staying. You drive away in under ten minutes.

Our top tier — higher ride, more room in the back, and confident on the hill roads above Victoria.

05 — Common Questions

Good to know,
before you book.

What licence do I need to drive in Seychelles? +

A valid driving licence from your home country in Latin script — or an International Driving Permit if your licence is in another script. Minimum driver age is 22 with at least two years of driving experience.

How does pick-up at the airport work? +

We track your flight. A driver waits at arrivals with a sign showing your name. The car is parked five steps from the door — we run through the paperwork, hand over the keys and a map, and you're driving within ten minutes.

How does fuel work? +

We use a simple like-for-like fuel policy: return the car with at least the same amount of fuel it had when you picked it up. For example, if you collect it half-full, just bring it back half-full or more. If you can't refuel before drop-off, we'll top it up for you at pump price plus a small service fee.

What if I need to cancel or change dates? +

Free cancellation up to 72 hours before pick-up — and since we don't take a deposit, there's nothing to pay if you cancel. Date changes are always free, subject to availability.

Can I take the car to Praslin or La Digue? +

Our fleet is for Mahé. For the inner islands, we'll happily arrange a transfer and a local car waiting on the other side — just ask.

Do you charge for delivery? +

Delivery and collection anywhere on Mahé are free for rentals of a week or more. For shorter rentals, a €20 fee applies to the airport and the outlying areas of the island.

Are there any discounts for longer stays? +

Yes. Rent for more than a week and you get €5 off the daily rate, every day of your stay. And if you're staying at Otantik Residence, you save €10 off per day — just mention your booking when you enquire.
