On the north-east coast of Mauritius, Azuri Ocean & Golf Village is an exception: a 170-hectare estate conceived not as a gated compound but as a real coastal village — restaurants, shops, hotel, nautical club, golf — alive year-round since 2014. Developed by BlueLife Ltd (IBL Group) under the PDS and Smart City Scheme, it opens freehold ownership to international buyers.
The village faces the island's second largest lagoon, at Roches Noires, fringed with mangroves, and the Rivière du Rempart flows through it to the ocean. The full residential range is here: Les Méléanes apartments from ~€160K, Ophélys townhouses, 180° ocean-view penthouses from ~€2.05M, and 45 building plots at Les Hautes Rives.
For the investor, Azuri combines the most accessible entry price of Mauritius' great estates, rental demand driven by the village and the Radisson Blu hotel, and the island's tax frame: 0% capital gains, 0% inheritance tax and a personal income scale of 0/10/20%. This page details residences, pricing, tax and the buying process.
A Real Coastal Village, Not a Gated Compound
Azuri is BlueLife's (IBL Group) successful wager: creating on 170 hectares of the north-east coast a village that lives year-round — cafés, restaurants, sailing school, golf, hotel — where Mauritians and internationals have lived side by side since 2014.
Mauritius' Second Largest Lagoon
Azuri faces the Roches Noires lagoon, the island's second largest, fringed by protected mangroves. The Rivière du Rempart flows through the estate to meet the ocean at the heart of the village — kayaking, paddle and kitesurf start at your doorstep.
Nine Holes at the Heart of the Village
The Nine, Azuri's 9-hole course, is played on foot from home — driving range, academy and the club's BistroPub for the nineteenth hole. A convivial format, ideal for playing year-round, twenty minutes from the North's championship 18-holes.
Cafés, Gourmet Market and Neighbourhood Life
Black Rock Bar & Grill, Café Gioia, Le Comptoir, Rivazur, the Ô Marché Gourmet deli: Azuri's boulevard lives morning to night. Add the Radisson Blu Azuri Resort & Spa (101 rooms), the Cinq Mondes spa, the JPH Nautical Club and its boat yard.
A Mature Community, New Programmes
Twelve years after opening, Azuri is a village that works — and keeps building: Les Méléanes apartments, Ophélys townhouses, ocean-view penthouses and 45 plots at Les Hautes Rives. New builds and resales coexist, from pied-à-terre to signature penthouse.

- Full freehold ownershipForeign buyers obtain a full freehold title, with no resale restriction and full repatriation of capital and rental income.
- Residence permit from $375,000A qualifying purchase grants a renewable residence permit for the owner and family, valid for as long as the property is held. Entry apartments below the threshold remain excellent pure rental plays.
- Tax residencySpending more than 183 days a year in Mauritius confers tax resident status — unlocking a personal scale capped at 20% (0/10/20%) and the absence of capital gains, inheritance and wealth taxes.
- Regulated off-plan (VEFA)New programmes sell under Mauritian VEFA, with a financial completion guarantee and regulated staged payments (25/10/35/25/5) — a framework inherited from French law.

A 170-hectare coastal village developed by BlueLife Ltd (IBL Group) at Haute Rive / Roches Noires, on the north-east coast of Mauritius. Open since 2014, it is one of the island's rare estates conceived as a real village: restaurants, shops, Radisson Blu hotel, spa, nautical club, the 9-hole The Nine golf course — and a mixed community of Mauritian and international residents.
Yes. Azuri is developed under the PDS and Smart City Scheme: foreign buyers of all nationalities purchase freehold, with full repatriation of capital. A purchase of at least USD 375,000 grants the Mauritian residence permit for the family.
The full range: 1-3 bedroom apartments (Les Méléanes, 280 units), 3-4 bedroom townhouses (Ophélys), 238-285 m² penthouses with 180° ocean views and private jacuzzi, resale villas, and 45 serviced plots at Les Hautes Rives to build your own home.
Yes, from USD 375,000 invested (about €350K): the residence permit covers the buyer, spouse and children for as long as the property is held. Entry-level apartments sit below that threshold — ideal as pure rental investments — while townhouses and penthouses qualify.
On the north-east coast, at Haute Rive near Roches Noires — facing the island's second largest lagoon. Grand Baie is about 20 minutes away, Port Louis 35 minutes and SSR international airport under an hour.
Mauritius levies no capital gains tax, no annual property tax, no inheritance tax and no wealth tax. On purchase: 5% registration duty plus notary fees. Personal income follows a progressive 0/10/20% scale; corporate tax is 15%.
Azuri is one of the island's most rented estates: the village lives year-round, the Radisson Blu hotel brings constant tourist traffic, and apartments rent well both short and long term (2-bedrooms let around MUR 60,000/month long-term). Precise assumptions should be validated by typology with your GADAIT advisor.
It is one of its great strengths: a secure walkable village, sailing school and kids' clubs, a year-round resident community, shops and restaurants on site, and the North's international schools ~45 minutes away. Azuri works as a main residence, a pied-à-terre or an investment.
Two philosophies: Mont Choisy (Grand Baie) is the North's grand golf-and-beach estate, with a championship 18-hole course and higher entry prices. Azuri is a lagoon-side village, more accessible at entry (from ~€160K), livelier year-round, with a convivial 9-hole. The first optimises golf and prestige; the second village life and rental yield.
GADAIT represents the buyer: access to new programmes (Les Méléanes, Ophélys, penthouses) and off-market resales, negotiation, due diligence with vetted Mauritian lawyers, EDB file, residence permit and post-purchase rental management. A single point of contact in English or French.
