Mauritius Homes for Sale
Finding the right home in Mauritius is entirely achievable when you have the right team behind you. Move To Mauritius connects international buyers with verified properties across the island, handles the legal groundwork, and makes sure your purchase fits your residency goals from day one.
What Types of Homes Are Available in Mauritius?
The Mauritius property market offers a strong range of options for foreign buyers, from beachfront villas in Grand Baie to contemporary apartments in Tamarin, golf estate residences in Beau Champ, and hillside retreats above Moka. The most relevant schemes for non-citizens include:
- PDS (Property Development Scheme): Integrated resort-style estates with full ownership rights and automatic permanent residency when you invest USD 375,000 or more.
- Smart City Scheme: Mixed-use urban developments blending residential, commercial, and leisure spaces.
- G+2 Apartments: Condominium units in buildings of three storeys or more, open to foreign buyers without a minimum spend requirement.
- IRS and RES legacy stock: Resale villas and apartments within established resort schemes that still carry full ownership and residency benefits.
Each route carries different eligibility rules, tax implications, and residency outcomes. Getting this wrong is costly. Getting it right opens the door to island living and a favourable fiscal environment in one move.

Which Areas Should You Consider?
The north (Grand Baie, Pereybere) suits buyers who want a social scene, restaurants, and easy beach access. The west coast (Tamarin, Black River) attracts surfers, families, and those who prefer a quieter, more authentic pace. The east (Belle Mare, Beau Champ) is home to the island's most prestigious resort estates. The central plateau (Moka, Quatre Bornes) appeals to professionals who want cooler temperatures and proximity to international schools.
There is no single best area. The right choice depends on your lifestyle, your family setup, and how you plan to use the property.
How Quickly Can You Complete a Purchase?
A straightforward PDS or G+2 purchase typically completes in three to five months from signed reservation agreement to title transfer. Resale transactions can move faster. Timelines depend on due diligence, permit approvals, and mortgage arrangements if applicable. We keep the process moving and flag delays before they become problems.

Frequently asked questions
Can foreigners buy property in Mauritius?+
Yes. Foreign nationals can purchase property in Mauritius through approved schemes such as PDS, Smart City, and G+2 apartment developments. Freehold ownership is permitted and a qualifying investment of USD 375,000 or more in a PDS property also grants permanent residency.
What is the minimum investment to buy a home in Mauritius as a foreigner?+
There is no blanket minimum for G+2 apartments. For PDS villas and resort properties, the minimum purchase price to qualify for permanent residency is USD 375,000, though properties are available below this threshold without the residency benefit.
Do I get residency when I buy property in Mauritius?+
Purchasing a PDS, IRS, or RES property at or above USD 375,000 automatically qualifies you for a Mauritian permanent residence permit. G+2 apartment purchases below this threshold do not automatically confer residency, though other visa routes remain available.
