Purchasing a plot of land in Mauritius represents a rare opportunity for those looking to combine a long-term investment with an exceptional quality of life. Every year, the island attracts numerous buyers, drawn by its pristine natural environment, paradisiacal beaches, turquoise lagoons, and unique lifestyle.
Unlike buying an already built apartment or villa, acquiring a plot of land in Mauritius offers the freedom to design a bespoke home in a chosen setting. It should be noted, however, that plots available to foreign buyers in Mauritius remain limited and highly sought after. This scarcity makes them a strategic investment with strong patrimonial value, designed for the long term.
At Domaine d’Anbalaba, a few plots are still available. They stand out for their generous size, remarkable views, and privileged natural setting, making them highly sought-after.

Why invest in a plot of land in Mauritius?
Investing in a plot of land in Mauritius allows for the creation of a villa that perfectly aligns with a specific lifestyle and personal aspirations. Each project can be designed down to the smallest detail, from architecture and interior layouts to building orientation and the organization of outdoor spaces.
A well-located plot also represents a solid patrimonial investment. Parcels with views of the sea, lagoon, or mountains are among the most sought-after and tend to retain, or even increase, their value over time.
Acquiring a plot of land also ensures long-term integration into an exceptional natural environment. Whether for a primary residence, a secondary home, or a rental project, this type of investment combines property value with quality of life, offering modern comfort, preserved nature, and serenity.
Real Estate schemes open to foreign investors
Access to property in Mauritius by foreign investors is strictly regulated. It is only possible within specific real estate programs designed to allow non-citizens to legally invest in Mauritian land.
These schemes include, in particular, the Integrated Resort Scheme (IRS), the Property Development Scheme (PDS), and the Smart City Scheme. They allow foreigners to purchase land in full ownership and build their villa. Outside of these regulated programs, land purchases are reserved for Mauritian citizens, making opportunities for foreigners particularly rare and highly sought-after.
These legal frameworks offer several key advantages: secure transactions, a clear acquisition process, and, under certain investment conditions, the possibility of obtaining a residence permit for the buyer and their family. The structured legal environment of these programs provides an essential guarantee for carrying out a real estate project with complete peace of mind.
It is therefore crucial to ensure that the intended plot is part of a real estate program officially open to foreign investors, in order to guarantee compliance and the security of the acquisition.
Key steps to buy a building plot in Mauritius
Purchasing a building plot in Mauritius follows a structured process, governed by specific rules designed to secure the transaction. Several key steps mark this acquisition.
The first step is to identify the plot that matches the intended project, taking into account essential criteria such as location, surroundings, views, and the natural setting. Once the plot is selected, a thorough verification of the property titles is carried out. This process ensures that the land is free from any liens, mortgages, or disputes.
Next comes the negotiation of the sale conditions, including the price and acquisition terms. Once an agreement is reached, a preliminary sales agreement is signed before a notary or lawyer, formalizing the mutual commitment of both buyer and seller.
A due diligence phase is then conducted to verify the legal, administrative, and technical compliance of the land, particularly regarding the relevant real estate scheme. Finally, the transaction is concluded with the signing of the final deed of sale and the official transfer of ownership, following payment of the purchase price.
All these steps involve the intervention of qualified professionals (notaries, lawyers, and real estate experts) to ensure a secure acquisition that complies with Mauritian legal requirements.
Tips for successfully buying a building plot in Mauritius
Choosing the right location is crucial for a successful investment in a building plot in Mauritius. Some areas offer immersion in local life or postcard-worthy landscapes between the sea and mountains, while others stand out for their proximity to essential services, international schools, and healthcare facilities. The location influences not only daily comfort but also the future patrimonial value of the land.
Topography, orientation and views play a key role in optimizing the plot and ensuring the future construction integrates harmoniously with its natural surroundings. Considering these factors from the start allows the project to reach its full potential and ensures it is perfectly suited to the chosen setting.
Finally, complying with current legislation and carefully planning both the acquisition and construction ensures the project is secure and allows for a fully customized build, in line with local standards and opportunities offered in Mauritius.
