Golf Holidays in Mauritius
✅ Pure white sand beaches
✅ Exciting challenge of championship golf courses
✅ Luxurious hotel to rest your head
✅ Great selection of off course activities
Located east of Africa’s southern mainland, Mauritius is the epitome of a dream island getaway, with clear blue waters and pristine white sand. The beaches are perfectly setup so you can relax and soak in some sun rays, or take to the waters with kayaks and paddle boards.
The island also boasts world class resorts and hotels, on top of stunning golf courses including Ile aux Cerfs, requiring a small boat transfer in order to access the gorgeous island golf course.
The capital Port Louis exudes the quintessential charm and character of bygone days, particularly its fantastic French colonial mansions.
For tourists, the outstanding stretches of sand that border the island are unforgettable, the increase in all inclusive deals and the recent addition of a number of top quality championship golf courses has made Mauritius a serious golfing destination.
Ile Aux Cerfs is the number 1 ranked golf course in Mauritius. Opening in 2003 it has matured wonderfully meandering through the natural mangroves and craggy volcanic rocks that formed the island. Beautiful white sandy beaches flank the outskirts of the course which is only accessible by a speedboat or a helicopter.
Le Chateau Course at Heritage Golf Club is a wonderful Peter Matkovich design. The generous fairways allow every level of golfer to enjoy the course, however the numerous water hazards and risk reward holes challenge the best. The course has hosted the DP World Tour in 2015 and 2017 and is constantly looked at as the best condition course on the island. The clubhouse serves excellent food so do not rush back to the hotel after your round.
Anahita Golf Course is an Ernie Els championship course built on an old sugar plantation. The course flows through the natural hilly terrain incorporating stone walls and the rugged coastline. The six oceanside holes are spectacular and will make you want to reach for your camera. The short 17th is one of the prettiest par 3’s you will find anywhere in the world.
Private beaches, golf included and 5* luxury...what's not to like? Mauritius is home to some truly amazing hotels and resorts and in the form of the likes of Constance Belle Mare Plage and Heritage Le Telfair Golf and Wellness Resort; you’ll find your perfect sanctuary for a week in golfing paradise.

Mauritius is a great year round destination, however the best time to visit for a golf experience would be the dry season which is from May to October. The weather warms up from October to December but does become more humid. January is also a great time to visit but can be prone to Cyclones.
Holi Festival takes place at the end of February into March for those wanting to add a bit of culture to their holiday.
