## Buy an Apartment in Mauritius: Everything You Need to Know

Mauritius is one of the Indian Ocean's most sought-after destinations for apartment buyers — and for good reason. Whether you're a first-time investor, a retiree seeking a sun-drenched lifestyle, or a savvy buyer looking for rental yield, buying an apartment in Mauritius offers a compelling blend of tropical living, political stability, and strong property fundamentals. Browse the live listings below to explore available apartments across the island right now.

### Why Buy an Apartment in Mauritius?

Apartments in Mauritius range from compact studio flats in bustling Port Louis to luxury beachfront residences in Grand Baie, Tamarin, and Pereybere. The island's real estate market has matured significantly, with modern developments offering resort-style amenities including pools, gyms, concierge services, and 24-hour security — all at price points that compare favourably with equivalent properties in Europe or Southeast Asia.

For foreign buyers, Mauritius offers a transparent legal framework. Non-citizens can purchase apartments under approved government schemes such as the Smart City Scheme (SCS) and the Property Development Scheme (PDS), and a purchase of USD 375,000 or more can qualify the buyer and their family for a Mauritius residence permit — a major draw for those seeking a second home or permanent relocation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can foreigners buy an apartment in Mauritius?

Yes. Foreign nationals can legally purchase apartments in Mauritius through government-approved schemes such as the Property Development Scheme (PDS) and the Smart City Scheme (SCS). Buying a qualifying property worth USD 375,000 or more can also entitle the buyer to a Mauritius residence permit.

What is the average price of an apartment in Mauritius?

Apartment prices in Mauritius range from approximately MUR 3 million for a modest flat to over MUR 30 million for a luxury beachfront unit. Location, size, and amenities are the key price drivers. Grand Baie and Tamarin tend to command premium prices, while areas like Flic en Flac offer more affordable options.

Do I need a lawyer to buy an apartment in Mauritius?

Yes. Property transactions in Mauritius must be executed before a Notary (Notaire), who is a legally appointed public officer. It is also strongly recommended to engage a local lawyer to conduct due diligence, review title deeds, and guide you through the purchase process.

What ongoing costs should I budget for when buying an apartment in Mauritius?

Buyers should budget for registration duty (typically 5% of the purchase price for non-citizens under certain schemes), notary fees, and legal fees. Ongoing costs include monthly maintenance or co-propriété charges, utility bills, and property tax (land transfer tax may apply on resale).

How long does it take to complete an apartment purchase in Mauritius?

A straightforward resale apartment purchase typically takes 6–12 weeks from offer acceptance to final deed signing. Off-plan purchases in new developments may take longer depending on construction timelines. Foreign buyers should also allow time for any required government approvals.

Can I rent out my apartment in Mauritius as a holiday let?

Yes. Many apartment owners in Mauritius generate income by listing their properties on short-term rental platforms. Some development schemes include on-site rental management programmes. Always check the co-propriété rules of your specific building, as some complexes restrict short-term letting.
