MAURITIUS THE PERFECT LONG HAUL GOLF HOLIDAY VENUE

Island Golf Holidays are the specialists to Mauritius, the idyllic golfer’s venue in the Indian Ocean, where the golf season is year round, with perhaps the exception of one month – July!  The summer hot season starts in November and lasts through to Easter, but many golfers go when it is a little less hot and travel from April to June and also from September through to the end of October, when the prices are much less expensive.

Mauritius Golf Holidays are simply the best value long haul vacations available, mainly because the resorts all include free golf in the nightly room rates, so this is very different to venues in the Caribbean, Middle East and the Far East, where this is definitely not the case. The golf courses in Mauritius are all breathtaking, with ocean views and spectacular mountain scenery and in the case of Le Paradis a wonderful lagoon!

The top 3 courses are the Heritage Golf Club at Bel Ombre, which is offered free for residents of Heritage Awali and Heritage Le Telfair Golf & Wellness Resort. The magnificent Els Course at Four Seasons Resort at Anahita, where there are also the luxurious Anahita Golf & Spa Resort villas and townhouses, where you can play both Ile Aux Cerfs and the Els Course complimentary! Then it really is a toss up between Ile aux Cerfs, Tamarina on the west coast and the Links at Belle Mare Plage.

The most scenic course in the view of Island Golf Holidays is Le Paradis, sandwiched between Le Morne Mountain, the Lagoon and the Ocean, tucked away in the deep south-west corner of the island. The most difficult for scoring well is the Legends at Belle Mare Plage, offered free for Constance Prince Maurice and Constance Belle Mare Plage clients, this is because the course has so much water it really is a tough challenge to stay dry for 18 holes!

There are two new kids on the block in Mauritius, both designed by Peter Matkovitch – the superb hillside course at Avalon near Bel Ombre and the brand new Mont Choisy in the stunning north-west of the Island offered free for residents of the Trou aux Biches Beachcomber Resort. The north-west is notably the best region of Mauritius for all round great weather, even in July and August and it is a long way from the South-East, where the airport is and where the Trade Winds hit the Island!

A golf holiday in Mauritius is all about enjoying amazing golf courses, dining in some exquisite restaurants enjoying the Mauritian flair for cuisine, blending Creole, Chinese, African, Asian and French flavours! Relaxing on superb beaches and exploring what is a beautiful island, full of wonderful landscapes, which vary so much from region to region. Island Golf Holidays feature all 9 golf courses and 10 stunning resorts and David Sledmere is one of the travel industry’s most knowledgeable individuals, who will make sure that you pick the best venue for your dream golf holiday.

Island Golf Holidays believe the finest resorts are the Constance Le Prince Maurice, The Four Seasons at Anahita and the amazing revamped Heritage Le Telfair Golf & Wellness Resort at Bel Ombre, but if you love all inclusive the top 3 are Heritage Le Telfair and its Gourmet Bliss, The Constance Belle Mare Plage and its crystal all inclusive and last but not least the ever popular Heritage Awali next to Le Telfair.

If you love boutique hotels and spa treatments the place to stay is the new addition to the Island Golf Holidays portfolio, the gorgeous Shanti Maurice property on the south-coast
