Property

Residential estates developed under the IRS offer a wide variety of world class amenities for leisure, entertainment and wellness such as golf courses, marinas, beachclub, clubhouses and wellness centres that surrounds the residences and provide an exclusive resort experience.
A foreigner can acquire residential properties, like villas, townhouses, penthouses, apartments, duplexes and serviced plots of land in existing IRS projects.
The non-citizen and dependents are eligible for a residence permit when he/she has acquired the property at a minimum amount of USD 375,000. The owners may rent the property, become tax resident in Mauritius and face no restriction on the repatriation of funds or revenue raised from the sale or renting of the property.
Non-citizens who have a residence permit under IRS will be exempted from an Occupation or Work permit to invest and work in Mauritius.

Another product of the luxury residential offerings of Mauritius, RES projects offers different type of residences (villas, penthouses, duplexes, apartments) located within exclusive albeit smaller residential developments.
A foreigner can acquire a residential property in existing RES projects and will be eligible for a residence permit for himself and his dependents if he has invested a minimum amount of USD 375,000 to acquire the property. The owners may rent the property, become tax resident in Mauritius and face no restriction on the repatriation of funds or revenue raised from the sale or renting of the property.
Non-citizens who have a residence permit under RES will be exempted from an Occupation or Work permit to invest and work in Mauritius.

The Property Development Scheme (PDS) is one of the approved schemes, which has been designed to facilitate the development and subsequent purchase of luxurious properties by non-citizens in Mauritius.
Projects developed under this scheme provide outstanding luxury residential properties of high international standards together with high quality open spaces, high-class leisure and recreational facilities as well as day-to-day management services.
On acquisition of residential property for a price exceeding USD 375,000, a non-citizen is granted a residence permit for so long as he/she holds the residential property. The spouse and children below the age of 24 are also granted a residence permit.
Non-citizens who have a residence permit under PDS will be exempted from an Occupation or Work permit to invest and work in Mauritius.

The Invest Hotel Scheme allows a non-citizen investor and individual guests to become an owner of exclusive hotel units located in Mauritius.
A non-citizen can acquire a room (or a hotel unit) in new or existing hotels approved under the IHS. The owner thus gets a privileged access to all the facilities of exquisitely furnished luxury resort hotel(s) with amenities like F&B, fully serviced spas and fitness centres, resort-style pools.
The unit owner or any person on his behalf may use that unit for a total of 45 days in any period of 12 months, and can also derive an income through the lease back model.
If the unit/room is acquired for a minimum amount of USD 375,000, the owner would be eligible for a residence permit.

Foreigners are allowed to purchase apartments in developments outside of the approved residential schemes.
The apartments should be located in condominium developments of at least two levels above ground (G+2) and the purchase price of an apartment should not be less than MUR 6 million or its equivalent in any other hard convertible foreign currency.

Mauritius is blessed with a warm and conducive weather for 8 months a year, along with a peaceful and harmonious environment and an ever-improving infrastructure and a competitive cost of living, which makes it a remarkable place for retirement.
Projects being developed under the scheme (PDS for Senior Living) essentially refers to homes that cater to adults aged 50+ who are looking to live independently in a peer environment, and provide facilities for recreation and socialising, including a clubhouse, health club or gym, facility management services, focused on the needs of the elderly.
A non-citizen retiree, i.e. aged above 50 years, can acquire a residential unit or the life rights in respect of a residential unit in an approved project.
There is no minimum acquisition price, and the non-citizen can choose to apply for a residence permit for himself/herself and his/her spouse or common law partner until such time the property is no longer owned or occupied by the retiree.

Unlike many countries where hotel properties are openly advertised for sale, the hotel market in Mauritius is largely discreet and relationship-driven. Many hotel transactions are conducted privately and may never appear on public property portals or traditional real estate platforms.
Hotel acquisitions often involve significant investments and require careful consideration of the property's location, financial performance, operations, management structure, and future development potential.
For investors, this means that accessing the right opportunities often depends on market knowledge, trusted relationships, confidentiality, and access to an established network.
At Golden Roof Properties, we assist qualified investors in identifying and accessing discreet hospitality and hotel investment opportunities across Mauritius.
