Spellbound in Mauritius

Sales have been brisk at the luxurious Akasha Villas lifestyle estate on the west coast of Mauritius. Only three villas are still available for sale. Priced at €595,000, permanent residency is part of the package for investors, their spouses and dependants up to the age of 24.

Meanwhile, foreign buyers who were quick on the uptake when the development first went to market are set to move in to their new island homes by the end of this year.

When you see the location of the estate, you’ll get a sense of why the villas sold so quickly. When the first sod was turned almost two years ago, the site simply oozed potential. Now the vision has become a reality, with the completed development taking pride of place at the edge of a natural lagoon that leads to the Indian Ocean.

The Akasha Villas boast to-die-for water frontage, looking out over the river to the sea, flanked by Tamarina Golf Course across the lagoon and open expanses of indigenous vegetation. The Black River mountain range provides an ever-dramatic backdrop to island life.

The inspiration for the development’s design comes from the surroundings. Think light, bright, airy interiors with clean lines, soft earth tones and occasional bursts of colour. Opulent developments such as these have residents’ desire for at-home entertainment in mind or, at the very least, their appreciation of the outdoor lifestyle favoured by Mauritians. Each villa has its own swimming pool.

Where you belong

The freestanding villas are positioned to get the best out of the tranquil tropical environment, close to the Unicity smart city and in easy reach of the economic hub of Mauritius.

Akasha Villas occupies a 26ha estate which residents and their guests will be encouraged to navigate on foot, by bicycle or golf cart. Polluting vehicles will be limited on the grounds to meet the promise of a sustainable development in harmonious surrounds.

The west coast is very attractive to expats, especially those with young families. The development is close to international schools, which saves time in traffic, as well as shops, restaurants, nightlife, a medical centre, golf and water sports, to name a few.

Once you’re outdoors, there are plenty of activities to choose from. Mountain biking is very popular as is kayaking, sailing, windsurfing or water skiing. You can take a more leisurely cruise on the lagoon in a pedalo, or walk or hike the Black River Gorges National Park as energy and fitness levels dictate.
