Mauritius Airport to Constance Le Prince Maurice Transfer
Quick Answer: A private transfer from Mauritius Airport (SSR) to Constance Prince Maurice costs €50 per vehicle — not per person — for up to 3 guests, or from €70 for a minivan up to 6, all-inclusive: tolls, parking, a name-board meet in the arrivals hall, live flight tracking, 60 minutes of free waiting and every child seat free. The 55 km drive to the resort's quiet bay at Poste de Flacq takes about 65 minutes and never touches Port Louis. Book direct on WhatsApp with your flight number; pay the driver on arrival — typically well below the hotel-arranged price for the identical journey.

How long is the transfer to Constance Prince Maurice?
About 65 minutes, at any hour: the east route runs inland through Flacq's cane country — never near Port Louis, so there is no rush-hour version of this drive — and finishes at the northern, quietest end of the east coast, where the resort hides on its private bay at Poste de Flacq. The full road story for this coast, including the cyclone-season weather note, is on our Belle Mare transfer page; this page covers what's specific to arriving at the Prince Maurice itself.
Book direct, or take the hotel's transfer?
The honest per-hotel answer: the Prince Maurice, like nearly every Mauritian resort, runs no free shuttle — the transfer offered with your booking is a third-party car resold with the hotel's handling margin. Booked direct, the identical journey is our flat €50 per vehicle — the same baseline as every address on the island — agreed on WhatsApp before you fly, paid on arrival, cancellable free to 24 hours. The island-wide desk-vs-direct picture is on our hotel transfers guide. For couples who want the arrival to match the resort's tier, the executive option — premium vehicle, senior chauffeur — is our luxury and VIP transfer.
Arrival at the resort, step by step
Name board in the arrivals hall — one terminal, impossible to miss — flight tracked live (roughly 41% of arrivals into Mauritius land off schedule), an hour's waiting included, child seats fitted free. At the resort end: the gate protocol, the long palm approach, a reception drop with luggage handled. The practical note that matters most here: this is one of the island's great honeymoon arrivals, and most European honeymoons land at dawn against an afternoon check-in. Send the flight number and we'll shape the gap — a slow waterfront breakfast, an unhurried east-coast hour — so the marriage's first morning on the island isn't spent in a lobby.
The honeymoon arrival
If you've booked the Prince Maurice, odds are it's an occasion — the resort is the east's quiet-luxury flagship, famous for its stilted suites and its floating restaurant on the barachois. Tell us it's a honeymoon when you book: the arrival gets the occasion's care, and when you're ready to leave the bay for a day, the island's most romantic outings — Chamarel and rum with a west-coast sunset, the lagoon under sail — are mapped on our Mauritius honeymoon tours.
Golf from the Prince Maurice
The resort's guests play at the sister house's two championship courses — the Legend and the Links at Constance Belle Mare Plage, twenty minutes down the coast — and that run is daily work for us: early tee-times, bags in the boot (free, like all oversize luggage), back for lunch on the bay.
Can you just take Uber to the resort?
Since 25 March 2026, Uber operates in Mauritius as "Taxi by ala-lila," booking licensed local taxis at local rates — and Poste de Flacq's quiet end of the coast is among the thinnest coverage on the island. Standard cars only, no guaranteed child seats, no fixed price before you fly; the full 2026 picture is in our guide to Uber in Mauritius.
The Barefoot Index: Prince Maurice transfer facts
Airport to Constance Prince Maurice is about 55 km and 65 minutes with zero Port Louis exposure, at a flat €50 per vehicle — typically below the hotel-desk price for the same car. Every child seat is free against the island's one-free-then-€10 norm. The resort sits on a private bay at the east coast's quietest end; its guests golf at the sister resort's Legend and Links courses twenty minutes south; and the Constance-to-Constance split stay — a week here, a week at Belle Mare Plage, or any mix — runs as a fixed hotel-to-hotel transfer from around €40, on the same WhatsApp thread as both airport legs. Family-run, PSV-licensed, since 1998.
"Barefoot Transfers made our honeymoon extra special... Very professional, very personal — highly recommend." — Priya & Arjun, India
Worth knowing once you're at the Prince Maurice
The bay does most of the work; when you venture out, the east's catamaran day to Ile aux Cerfs collects from this coast on our Ile aux Cerfs catamaran cruise, and every inland circuit runs door-to-door from the resort gate. Splitting the stay with the sister house? Its own arrival guide is our Constance Belle Mare Plage transfer page.
