Words by Debbie Hathway

Construction begins on the new luxury development at Les Salines in Q1: 2024, and delivery is expected within three years. Work on the new 18-hole GEO-certified golf course is already underway, giving avid golfers another reason to seriously consider moving to Mauritius with its reputation for some of the most magnificent golfing facilities in the world.

“Les Salines is not just a road; it’s a lifestyle – marking the entrance to a modern town with many attractions and a wide range of residences from exclusive villas or beachfront apartments. It will all be right here. Tucked away in the heart of Black River in The West, this newly constructed cul de sac will provide access to luxurious new resorts and property developments with all their related five-star amenities. Thanks to its exclusivity, it will be the wealthiest area on the island in the next five years,” says Rinie Boshoff, Pam Golding Properties (Mauritius) Development Manager for the West Coast.She says the peaceful atmosphere that comes with the location of Harmonie Golf and Beach Estate is the epitome of “bushveld bliss”. There are 220 luxury villas and serviced plots dotted across 150 hectares around 54 metres above sea level. Homes look onto Le Morne and La Tourelle mountain from the other side of a horseshoe-shaped lagoon. Plots average 2,000 square metres, with a built area from 401 square metres. “You can buy a serviced plot, which, aside from exterior specifications, allows you to decide on the design and size of your villa. Or choose a plot-and-villa option, offering three villa concepts with flexible add-on extras. Whatever you decide, your home will reflect your lifestyle and decor preferences in a truly curated way,” says Rinie.

When tomorrow never comes

Words by Debbie Hathway November is a bittersweet time of year. I get the usual yearning to return to Mauritius (my body knows when it’s time to recharge), but it’s also a special time to experience paradise island when the sun coaxes inconceivable shades of blue from the ocean, and the “flamboyant” trees are full of brilliant red flowers. 16 November 2016 was the first time I visited Mauritius in the summer. It was a long weekend break made possible by sponsored flights through Air Mauritius. My mom had been fighting cancer for too long, having beaten it once before, and I needed a boost to get me through the next phase. However, that weekend was the beginning of the end of my mother’s life. Had I known that was imminent, I would never have gone. I was in denial, firmly believing she would turn the corner. I returned to Cape Town that Sunday morning. She passed away that night. My father and I were with her. So, when I get the social media reminders of my time there, those memories come flooding back and with them, the learning. I was at work the day after she passed, sending a magazine to print because there was nobody else to do it. I was retrenched a few weeks later.
