The first essential step when investing in real estate in Mauritius is to think about the following question: "what type of property to choose?". Your lifestyle in the tropics as well as your financial goals will serve as a compass in this quest.
To help you navigate through the different possible options, today we share our vision to guide you in choosing between a villa, an apartment or a penthouse.
Please note that foreign investors will be able to acquire one of these properties, provided that they are sold through the investment regimes put in place by the Mauritian authorities (such as IRS, PDS, Smart City, R+2) , or that they already hold a residence permit.
Villa in Mauritius, your haven of peace in the tropics
Equipped with green spaces, landscaped gardens and a private swimming pool, the villa in Mauritius is a real cocoon.
Between privacy and generous living spaces, it is the perfect setting for entertaining the family, organizing receptions or taking the time to recharge your batteries. Here, outdoor living takes on its full meaning, with covered kiosks or gazebos, spacious furnished terraces and large bay windows to enjoy the mild tropical climate all year round.
Ocean lovers will find what they are looking for in a villa by the sea, where you can dock your boat, practice your favorite water activities at any time, or contemplate the turquoise waters from your terrace. Golf enthusiasts will enjoy taking their cart or walking from home to a sumptuous course, while nature lovers will choose a villa on the heights with panoramic views between sky and earth...
For more peace of mind, choose year-round house staff (gardener, swimming pool specialist, butler), all of whom guarantee your peace and quiet and ensure permanent maintenance when you are not there.
Apartment in Mauritius, freedom at the turn of a key
Choosing an apartment can be judicious and reassuring during a first real estate investment. The apartments appeal thanks to their “lock and leave” concept, perfect for globetrotters or those who live in several countries, giving the freedom to travel with complete peace of mind.
Within private residences, your Mauritian pied-à-terre will remain secure during your absence. A co-ownership trustee will monitor the rules of good conduct and ensure the ongoing maintenance of the common areas of the residence.
Furthermore, an apartment requiring much less complex maintenance than a villa, the annual charges will be lower.
Thanks to local companies providing rental management and maintenance services, it is the ideal option for anyone wishing to stay a few weeks a year and benefit from rental income. Returns on investment for short-term rentals can also reach 7-8% depending on the location.
Penthouse in Mauritius, the daily dream
Offering spectacular panoramas, and a perfect mix between the comfort of an apartment and the privacy of a villa, the penthouse will suit those with an outward-looking lifestyle. Equipped with large terraces that you can arrange according to your tastes to fully enjoy life in the tropics, they are very pleasant to live in, offering luxurious exterior and interior amenities. And as a little extra, some of the penthouses are even equipped with a jacuzzi or swimming pool!
Located in private residences, you will therefore have access to the infrastructure but also to the services of the residence in question.
Quite rare and exclusive properties, and particularly sought after on the long-term rental market, they also represent an interesting investment with strong capital appreciation potential.
