Located on the coastline or slightly elevated, villas with lagoon views offer a privileged setting for admiring Mauritius’ landscapes. Large bay windows, open terraces, and outdoor areas often make it possible to enjoy the view throughout the day, especially on the island’s west, north, and east coasts.
Some villas are part of secure residential estates offering landscaped surroundings, a beach, a golf course, or various services accessible to residents. These properties provide a sought-after balance between the independence of a private villa and the proximity of facilities dedicated to leisure and well-being.
For stays bringing together several families or several generations, large villas offer numerous bedrooms, independent suites, and spacious common areas. Garden, pool house, game room, or children’s areas allow everyone to enjoy the stay at their own pace.
Depending on the property, certain services may be included in the rental or arranged as an extra: housekeeping, meal preparation, private chef, butler, concierge service, or maintenance of outdoor areas. The services offered vary from one villa to another and are specified before booking.
Prestigious apartments and penthouses
Although our selection is mainly made up of villas, a few apartments and penthouses are also available for rent. Located in high-end residences, they may offer a shared pool, lagoon views, quick access to the beaches, or proximity to restaurants and shops. They are a suitable alternative for travelers looking for a more compact and easy-to-live-in property.
Our local teams will help you select a property suited to your group’s composition, your stay plans, and the level of service you are looking for.
Tailor-made services for your stay in Mauritius
Renting a villa in Mauritius allows you to design a stay adapted to your pace, your preferences, and each traveler’s habits. Before your arrival, our local teams help you choose the property and provide information about the facilities, included services, and any additional services that can be arranged.
Welcome and concierge service
Depending on the selected villa, a welcome or concierge service can make your arrival easier and support you throughout your stay. Restaurant bookings, activity recommendations, excursion planning, or preparing the property before your arrival can be arranged according to your needs.
Private chef and household staff
Some villas have household staff or offer housekeeping services included in the rental. Upon request, it may also be possible to arrange a private chef, meal preparation, or additional services so you can make the most of the property.
Transfers and getting around the island
Our teams can help you organize your airport transfers and guide you toward different mobility options. Car rental, private driver, or transport for an excursion can be arranged depending on the region where the villa is located and your planned itinerary.
Water activities and boat trips
Exploring the lagoons is one of the highlights of a stay in Mauritius. Boat trips, big-game fishing, diving, snorkeling, paddleboarding, kayaking, or excursions to the islets can be arranged with specialized providers, depending on weather conditions and the property’s location.
Golf, wellness, and private experiences
Mauritius also offers numerous golf courses, spas, and wellness experiences. In-villa massage, a day in an estate, cooking classes, guided tours, or private island discovery outings allow you to personalize your stay and alternate between relaxation, leisure, and exploration.
Available services vary depending on the property and the region. Before any booking, our teams will specify the services included in the rental as well as those that can be arranged upon request.
Experience Mauritius at your own pace
Mauritius is not limited to its beaches and lagoons. Renting a villa lets you discover a destination with many faces, from coastal villages and lively markets to lush hills, agricultural estates, and volcanic landscapes. Each region offers a different way to experience the island, from leisurely days by the water to inland excursions.
Enjoying the beaches and lagoons
From the north to the east coast, and through the west and southwest, Mauritian beaches offer a wide variety of settings. Some are lively and lined with restaurants, while others remain more untouched and secluded. Swimming, snorkeling, paddleboarding, sailing, or simply lunch facing the sea naturally shape the days.
Villas located near Grand Baie, Belle Mare, Tamarin, or Le Morne make it easy to reach the coastline and enjoy the activities specific to each lagoon.
Discovering the island’s interior
Mauritius’ interior reveals lush vegetation, waterfalls, plantations, and spectacular landscapes. An excursion to Chamarel, the Black River Gorges, or the southern landscapes offers a more natural side of the island, far from the seaside resorts.
Hiking enthusiasts can explore various trails offering views of the mountains, the coast, and vast sugarcane fields. These outings can easily be part of a day before returning to the peace and comfort of the villa.
Golf and outdoor activities
Mauritius is also appreciated for the quality of its golf courses, especially on the east and south coasts. Some residential estates allow you to stay right next to a course while also benefiting from access to beaches, restaurants, and various leisure facilities.
Hiking, horseback riding, kitesurfing, diving, and fishing add to the many possibilities offered by the destination.
A cuisine shaped by many influences
Mauritian cuisine reflects the island’s cultural diversity. Seafood, spices, curries, tropical fruits and Creole specialties can be discovered both in restaurants and in markets, as well as from small local producers.
Renting a villa makes it possible to alternate between dining out, impromptu lunches by the water and meals prepared on the property by its occupants or by a private chef.
Markets, villages and the Mauritian way of life
Visiting a market, strolling through the streets of Port Louis, discovering coastal villages or talking with artisans helps better understand the island’s identity. Hospitality, conviviality and cultural diversity all play a full part in the experience of a stay in Mauritius.
Between two excursions, the villa becomes a true place to live: breakfast on the terrace, afternoons by the pool, sunset facing the lagoon and dinner with family or friends. This freedom is one of the main attractions of renting a luxury villa in Mauritius.
When should you rent a villa in Mauritius?
Thanks to its tropical climate, Mauritius is ideal for villa rentals throughout the year. However, the destination is shaped by two main seasons: a hot, humid austral summer from November to April, followed by a milder and generally drier austral winter from May to October. The choice of period therefore depends mainly on the region of the island, the activities planned and the atmosphere desired during the stay.
From November to April to fully enjoy the austral summer
Between November and April, temperatures are higher and the sea is particularly pleasant. This period is well suited to travelers wishing to plan their holidays around the pool, beaches, swimming and sea outings. Mornings are often favored for outdoor activities, while tropical showers may occur, especially between January and March.
The year-end holiday season is particularly sought after for renting a villa in Mauritius. Beachfront properties, large family villas and residences with staff are in very high demand, so it is best to book early in order to have a wider choice.
From May to October for a milder climate
The austral winter offers more moderate temperatures and pleasant conditions for alternating between beaches, sightseeing, golf and discovering the island’s interior. This period is particularly suitable for travelers who wish to enjoy their villa while spending more time on hikes, excursions and outdoor activities.
Coastal conditions can vary depending on exposure. During the austral winter, the west of the island is especially appreciated for its generally more sheltered beaches, while the wind can be stronger on the east and south coasts, which are popular with kitesurfing and watersports enthusiasts.
September, October and November for a getaway between two seasons
The period from September to November is an excellent transition between the austral winter and summer. Temperatures rise gradually, the days are well suited to outdoor activities, and September to November are generally among the driest months. This period is particularly suitable for couples, groups of friends and families traveling outside the main school holidays.
Choosing your period according to your travel plans
A villa with a pool and lagoon access will be especially appreciated during the austral summer, while a property located near golf courses, hiking trails or natural spaces makes it possible to fully enjoy the milder months. For a family stay, a celebration, a trip with friends or an extended holiday, our local teams can advise you on the period and region best suited to your expectations.
