Beau Champ at a glance
Based on its geography, Mauritius is a naturally formed volcanic island featuring picturesque lagoons and palm-fringed beaches, located off the Southeast coast of the African continent.
The island has a diverse society of mixed ethnic groups and well-preserved cultures from members such as the Hindus, Muslims, Creoles, Chinese, and Europeans. The locals are bilingual and equally fluent in French and English as they are both official languages.
It accommodates those that spend vacations on the island and is also open to potential investors who plan on relocating there. With an incredible selection of various schools, religious relics, historical sites, monuments, and markets, it's no surprise that many choose this secluded haven as their preferred home.
Education
Living in Mauritius gives your children the privilege of attending international schools with some of the highest academic ratings. Schools such as The Northfields International School, which accommodates children from pre-nursery to Senior school, Lighthouse School, designed to stimulate a passion for learning and offers a comprehensive learning programme; and Westcoast International School, which offers smaller classrooms and a more personal learning experience.
Tourism and Retail
While Mauritius is the perfect vacation spot for family and newly wedded couples, there are also plenty of activities to take part in, whether for adrenaline junkies, religious affiliates, revellers, beach lovers, or even those who are interested in local markets.
Here are some suggestions for everyone; one of the main attractions is the 7 cascades of Tamarin, which have breathtaking views of waterfalls, rivers, and mountains. Kitesurfing by the South Western tip of Mauritius at Le Morne and swimming with dolphins in the crystal clear waters of the Indian ocean.
Are you thinking of engaging more with the locals? The best place is the Markets, where the local vendors sell traditional fruits and vegetables, art crafts, textiles, meat, fish, and many more items. These are markets such as the Central Market, the Textile Market, Craft Market, and much more.
Local Retail, Shopping, and Restaurants
Beyond the more local offerings, Mauritius caters to just about every current need. Mauritius has something for everyone, from fully stocked malls offering the latest in both retail and accessories to some of the most incredible dining experiences.
Are you thinking of dining out? Locals often tout a host of world-class restaurants as the best on the island. Some popular shopping destinations include La Croisette, Bagatelle Mall, and the titular Super U Grand Bay to cater to your retail needs.
To get the most out of your experience in Mauritius, we recommend The Beach House and the Correspondences Restaurant.
Golfing and Lifestyle Estates
Beyond offering a first-world lifestyle, one of the most well-known attributes of Mauritius is its golfing scene. There is a fairway from incredible golf estates to private clubs for just about anyone. Some notable estates include Mont Choisy Golf, Anahita, and Heritage Golf Club.
Property
However, considering Mauritius is one of the most visited islands by tourists from different countries, the properties also accommodate different lifestyles. The properties vary from apartments, villas, and penthouses, giving one a choice in the lifestyle they desire in Mauritius. Those that would like to experience the sight of the beautiful beaches and the convenience of walking to the beach and the lagoon can consider an exclusive apartment development in Grand Baie.
If you're into a peaceful sanctuary surrounded by nature, the Anahita is the perfect place for you. Situated in between mountains and an immaculate eastern coastline, facing the breathtaking view of the lush greeneries. Anahita Mauritius is an estate that offers ready-built luxury villas, private suites, two prestigious resorts, and two unique 18 - hole golf courses.
One can also find a place to connect with friends and disconnect from stress at the Les Hauts Champs which has a countryside lifestyle, which is a catch for most residents. The estate is a distance from the fast-paced city life yet is not too far from Grand Bay, schools, recreational activities, and commercial facilities.
Healthcare
Beyond world-class accommodations and exceptional locations, Mauritius also offers sterling health care facilities. The island's largest hospital, Welkin Hospital, offers +25 different services, including emergency ambulance services and the Clinique Darne.
