At the heart of the Anahita estate, on the east coast of Mauritius, the Four Seasons Private Residences are the island's only freehold villas managed by the Four Seasons resort itself. Shingle roofs, teak verandas and plunge pools in volcanic stone: these are the resort's own villas, set between the Ernie Els golf course, the mangroves and the lagoon facing Île aux Cerfs.
The original collection sold out years ago. Then, in 2025, the resort closed for seven months and was entirely reimagined by 1508 London and Elastic Architects; it reopened on 11 December 2025. RIVEO Hospitality, the resort's owner, now sells a limited number of these renovated 2 and 3-bedroom villas — 237 and 297 m² interior — with Four Seasons management, private pool and rental programme, from USD 2,300,000. The collection is marketed by registration; unit list, plots and timing are shared with registered buyers, and GADAIT relays them to you.
In parallel, the larger original villas — up to 630 m², 5 bedrooms, seafront — return to market on resale, a narrow flow that GADAIT tracks villa by villa. Our own mandate, a 5-bedroom beachfront villa at €4.9M, is presented below. For the HNWI buyer, the promise is unique in Mauritius: Four Seasons service at home, five-star rental income when the villa is free, a residence permit from USD 375,000 — and Mauritian taxation: 0% capital gains, 0% inheritance tax and a personal income scale of 0/10/20%.
Within the Anahita estate, on the great east-coast lagoon, the Private Residences pair Mauritian tropical architecture — shingle roofs, dark timber, volcanic stone — with the service standards of the world's foremost hotel brand: management, concierge, in-villa chef, rental programme.

Closed on 31 March 2025 and inaugurated again on 11 December 2025 after a seven-month renovation led by 1508 London and Elastic Architects, Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita lines the shore of the island's largest lagoon, facing Île aux Cerfs. Four beaches, seven dining venues, the enlarged Oseyan spa on stilts, kids club and water sports — owners are at home there.

Anahita's golf course, designed by Ernie Els, unfolds its 18 holes between ocean and mountains — regularly ranked among the Indian Ocean's finest. The Four Seasons residences border fairways and water features, with priority owner access.

Steep shingle roofs, teak verandas, plunge pools set in volcanic stone, outdoor showers: the Four Seasons villas are the resort's own architecture, entirely renovated in 2025 in earthy tones and natural textures. From the 2-bedroom villa (237 m²) to the 5-bedroom seafront villa (up to 630 m² on plots of up to 4,000 m²).

Year-round rental management and maintenance by the resort: your villa joins the Four Seasons inventory when you are away, rented to resort clientele at five-star rates. A dedicated residences director, 24/7 security, pool and garden upkeep, quarterly inspections — one counterpart, the most demanding brand in hospitality.

Three ways into the collection: the renovated 2-bedroom villas of the RIVEO collection, their 3-bedroom sisters, and — for the largest budgets — the original seafront villas on resale, among the rarest assets in the Indian Ocean.
Renovated resort villa: living-dining room under a high shingle roof, two en-suite bedrooms with outdoor showers, covered veranda and plunge pool. Sold with Four Seasons management and the rental programme.
The larger format of the collection: three en-suite bedrooms, a primary suite with private bath and outdoor shower, living spaces opening onto the veranda and pool. Limited number of units — allocated on registration.
The original Four Seasons villas — 223 to 630 m², 2 to 5 bedrooms, golf, lake or seafront positions, plots up to 4,000 m². A narrow market: GADAIT holds the mandate on a 5-bedroom beachfront villa at €4.9M.
Interior surfaces from the RIVEO brochure (2025): 2-bedroom villa 2,551 sq ft / 237 m², 3-bedroom villa 3,197 sq ft / 297 m². Prices from privateresidencesmauritius.com, checked 9 September 2026.
A rare seafront position within the resort: a two-storey villa of 5 en-suite bedrooms on a 2,619 m² plot, built in 2008 with the resort, opening onto the mangrove and the lagoon. Covered terraces under dark timber, lap pool, tropical garden — and the full Four Seasons service at your door. Sold freehold under the IRS scheme, residence permit included.

The residences line the shore of Mauritius' largest lagoon, within the Anahita estate — the east coast of calm waters, golf and grand resorts.
Indicative times by car or estate shuttle.
Two markets coexist: the renovated collection sold by RIVEO, the resort's owner, and the resale of the original villas — a narrow flow where the best positions often trade off-market.

Indicative prices excluding fees, checked 9 September 2026: RIVEO collection from privateresidencesmauritius.com; resale from GADAIT's mandate. Reference point: the last Four Seasons villa publicly listed by Anahita Property (2-bedroom, 223 m², seafront plot of 1,715 m²) was offered at €1.8M in 2020, before the resort's renovation. All homes are sold freehold to foreigners and qualify for the residence permit from USD 375,000. GADAIT shares live availability within 4 hours.
These villas never reach a portal. RIVEO, the owner of the resort, sells them from its own sales office, to buyers introduced by a handful of agents. GADAIT is one of them, and the list below is published with the sales office's agreement — the villa numbers, the surfaces, the positions and the asking prices as they stood in January 2026. Nobody else publishes it.
| Villa | Bedrooms | Interior | Position | Regime | Price | $ / m² |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| № 212 | 2 | 237 m² · 2,551 sq ft | Lake, private entrance | — | USD 2.65M | $11,200 |

Prices as held by the developer's sales office in January 2026, before the 5% registration duty. A dash means the sales office did not state that detail, not that it is missing. This is a six-villa list inside a resort that reopened in December 2025: what is still available today, and at what price, is re-confirmed with RIVEO before any viewing. Ask us and we check the same day.
The villa number is not arbitrary. On the resort's own site plan, the 2xx villas are the two-bedroom Residence Villas and the 3xx villas are the three-bedroom ones — which is why every 2xx above is 237 m² and every 3xx is 297 m². Read across the price column and the picture is equally consistent: the resort charges for position, not for surface. Two identical 237 m² villas sit 150,000 dollars apart because one opens onto the lake with a private entrance and the other faces the golf. At the top of the list, the two mangrove villas are the same 297 m² as the golf villa 304, and 300,000 dollars dearer.

Every Four Seasons villa at Anahita sits in one of two regimes, and the choice is the single biggest lever on what the villa earns. Here are both, with the revenue split, published with the developer's agreement.
The villa sits in the Four Seasons inventory all year. The resort sells it at five-star rates, runs it, maintains it and reports to you. The owner keeps 56 nights of personal use; every extra night is taken out of the rentable inventory.
You use the villa as often as you like. It can still be rented, but the resort fills the pool villas first, so occupancy and income are structurally lower. The trade for that freedom is five points of revenue share.
Revenue shares stated by the developer's sales office, January 2026. The split applies to rental revenue; operating costs and the villa's own charges sit outside it. On a resale, the villa arrives with one regime or the other attached — always check which one before you sign.
The developer's own plans. Both formats are single-storey, built around a central living room that opens onto a covered veranda and a plunge pool, with each bedroom given its own bathroom and its own outdoor shower.

The resort's own site plan. The green 2xx and purple 3xx markers are the Residence Villas — the ones that can be owned. Red is the hotel inventory. Use it to place villa 212 on the lake, 214 and 304 along the Ernie Els course, and 313 and 314 on the mangrove channel at the southern tip.

32 pages from RIVEO: the renovated two- and three-bedroom villas, the floor plans, the rental programme and the resort way of life. The document the developer hands its buyers.
On 9 September 2026, 10 Four Seasons villas were publicly offered at Anahita across seven agencies, from €1.67M for a 2-bedroom lake villa to €4.9M for the only 5-bedroom beachfront villa (our mandate). The official estate office, Anahita Property, currently lists none of them: the Four Seasons market lives with the agencies. Two-bedroom villas trade between roughly €8,000 and €10,500 per m²; the renovated RIVEO villas set the reference at USD 2.3M. Add to this table the six villas the resort's owner markets directly, which never reach the portals: in January 2026 they ran from USD 2.65M for 2 bedrooms to USD 3.3M for 3 bedrooms, and we publish that list villa by villa above. The full market therefore runs from €1.67M to USD 3.3M for 2-3 bedrooms, and to €4.9M for the 5-bedroom seafront villa.
Put every asking price in the same currency and one thing stands out: Four Seasons Anahita prices by surface, not by position. Eight of the ten villas sit between €8,200 and €9,400 per m², whether they face the lake, the golf or the sea. Two exceptions are worth knowing: the 3-bedroom sea-view villa listed by Dream Immo at about €6,000 per m² — the cheapest square metre on the market — and the 5-bedroom beachfront villa, whose sheer size brings it back to about €7,800 per m² despite the highest ticket.
Villas sold directly by the resort's owner sit above the agency market, at roughly €9,600 per m² — the premium for a villa renovated to the 2025 standard and delivered inside the rental programme. Converted at the rates read the same day on a dual-currency listing: USD 1 = €0.86, Rs 54.5 = €1.

Asking prices as published by each agency on 9 September 2026, excluding fees; rupee prices converted at about Rs 54 per euro. Villas of the Anahita estate marketed as “near the Four Seasons” (Hedonia, Rive Est, Solaia) are excluded: only villas inside the resort, managed by Four Seasons, are counted. GADAIT can arrange the visit of any villa in this table, whichever agency holds the mandate. Refreshed monthly.
The resort runs from the golf and the lake, inland, down to the mangrove and the water's edge. Position sets the ceiling of each band — only the seafront reaches €4.9M — but at equal size it moves the price far less than buyers expect.
Bands built only from the public listings in the table above (asking prices, 9 September 2026).
Mauritius counts only a handful of residences backed by a global hotel brand. Here is how the Anahita collection compares.
| Address | Area | Brand | Entry | Distinctive |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Four Seasons Anahita | Beau Champ (East) | Four Seasons | from $2.3M | Renovated resort villas · Ernie Els golf |
| One&Only Private Homes | Pointe de Flacq (East) | One&Only | from $1.74M | 52 beachfront villas |
| Anahita (estate) | Beau Champ (East) | — | from ~€600K | 213 ha · historic IRS |
| Mont Choisy | Grand Baie (North) | — | from ~€450K | Smart City · Matkovich golf |
Indicative entry prices (2026), to be confirmed against availability. Anahita is the island's only estate where the brand running the resort also runs the owners' villas.
The Four Seasons residences fall under Anahita's IRS scheme — one of the first frameworks to open Mauritian freehold real estate to foreign buyers, through the Economic Development Board (EDB).
Mauritius offers a uniquely favourable tax environment for international owners — a pillar of the investment thesis.
| Item | Rate | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Capital gains tax | 0% | None on resale |
| Inheritance / gift tax | 0% | None |
| Wealth tax | 0% | None |
| Annual property tax | 0% | None |
| Corporate tax | 15% | Individuals: 0/10/20% scale |
| Registration duty | 5% | On purchase (10% increase withdrawn, Finance Bill 2026) |
| Min. investment for residency | $375K | → residence permit |
Tax positions must be confirmed with a qualified Mauritian advisor. GADAIT works with a vetted network of specialists on the island.
Buyers compare asking prices; what matters is the amount that leaves the account. Here is the full line, on a €2M resale under the Anahita IRS scheme, at the rates in force on 9 September 2026.
| Line | Rate | Amount | Paid to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Purchase price | — | €2,000,000 | Seller |
| Registration duty | 5% | €100,000 | Registrar General, Mauritius |
| Notary fees | ≈1% | ≈€20,000 | Mauritian notary |
| Legal due diligence | fixed fee | €3,000 – €6,000 | Your lawyer |
| Residence permit application | per family | ≈€1,000 | Economic Development Board |
| All-in | ≈6.2% | ≈€2,124,000 | — |
No agency fee is added for the buyer: in Mauritius the seller pays the commission. Since December 2024 the EDB requires the price to be settled 85% in Mauritian rupees and 15% in foreign currency through the notary, from funds transferred from abroad. There is no annual property tax and no capital gains tax on resale, so the ≈6.2% above is the whole of the friction. Amounts to confirm with your notary for your case.
Beyond the purchase price, here are the recurring items to budget — in full transparency.
Indicative amounts (2026), varying with the villa, its use and the level of services subscribed. To be confirmed case by case with your GADAIT advisor.

Resort-run rental management places your villa in the Four Seasons inventory: global distribution, loyal resort clientele, five-star pricing. Two regimes coexist inside the resort. The Rental Pool: 56 days of owner use a year, the villa rented by Four Seasons the rest of the time, the highest income. The Flexible Program: unlimited owner use, rental still possible but behind the pool villas in priority, hence lower income. Your villa produces documented income while you are away — and remains your home the rest of the year.
Rental income depends on typology, seasonality and programme terms; assumptions to be validated case by case with your GADAIT advisor.
GADAIT knows Anahita villa by villa — RIVEO collection, resales and off-market — holds its own Four Seasons mandate, and represents the buyer exclusively.

The RIVEO collection of renovated 2 and 3-bedroom resort villas is marketed from USD 2,300,000 (about €2.1M) — 237 m² interior for the 2-bedroom, 297 m² for the 3-bedroom, each with private pool and Four Seasons management. On the resale market, prices range from about €1.67M to USD 3.3M for 2-3 bedroom villas, and up to €4.9M for a 5-bedroom seafront villa. On 9 September 2026, ten villas were publicly listed by agencies, from €1,670,000 (2-bedroom lake villa) to €4,900,000 for GADAIT's own mandate, a 5-bedroom beachfront villa on a 2,619 m² plot. The villas the resort's owner sells directly never reach the portals and sit higher: six of them, priced from USD 2.65M (2 bedrooms, 237 m²) to USD 3.3M (3 bedrooms, 297 m²) in January 2026 — this page publishes that list villa by villa. Prices as published, excluding fees.
Renovated. RIVEO Hospitality, the owner of Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita, sells villas of the resort itself, entirely refurbished during the seven-month closure of 2025 (design by 1508 London): 2 and 3-bedroom villas with plunge pool, covered veranda and outdoor showers. They are not new builds — which is precisely their appeal: a proven address, operating rental history, and immediate Four Seasons service.
The original Four Seasons Private Residences did sell out and fourseasons.com still shows the collection as sold out. Since 2025, two doors have reopened: the RIVEO collection of renovated resort villas (2-3 bedrooms, from $2.3M, marketed by registration) and the resale of original villas, which GADAIT handles by mandate — such as the 5-bedroom seafront villa at €4.9M presented on this page.
The private villas integrated into Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita, on the east coast. Owners hold their villa in full freehold (Anahita's IRS scheme) and enjoy the resort's services: rental management and maintenance by Four Seasons, a dedicated residences director, concierge, in-villa chef, access to the Ernie Els golf course and the Anahita Owners Club.
Yes. Anahita is a historic IRS estate: foreign buyers of all nationalities purchase freehold, with full repatriation of capital. Any purchase of at least USD 375,000 grants the Mauritian residence permit for the family.
The renovated RIVEO collection: 237 m² interior for the 2-bedroom villa and 297 m² for the 3-bedroom villa (RIVEO brochure, 2025). The original Four Seasons villas on resale range from 223 to 630 m², 2 to 5 en-suite bedrooms, on plots of up to 4,000 m² — the largest on the seafront, some with their own beach access.
Yes — and there are two ways to do it. In the Rental Pool, the villa stays in the Four Seasons inventory all year: the owner keeps 56 nights of personal use, the resort rents it at five-star rates the rest of the time and handles everything, and rental revenue is split 60% to the owner, 40% to Four Seasons. In the Flexible Program, the owner stays as many nights as they wish; the villa can still be rented, but the resort fills the pool villas first, so occupancy is lower — and the split moves to 55% owner, 45% Four Seasons. Those shares apply to rental revenue; operating costs sit outside them. On resale, each villa comes with one regime or the other attached, to be checked before signing.
Within the Anahita estate (213 ha), at Beau Champ on the east coast, along the island's largest lagoon, facing Île aux Cerfs. SSR international airport is about 45 minutes away, Port Louis 55 minutes.
Mauritius levies no capital gains tax, no annual property tax, no inheritance tax and no wealth tax. On purchase: 5% registration duty (the 10% increase planned for July 2026 was withdrawn by the Finance Bill 2026) plus notary fees. Personal income follows a progressive 0/10/20% scale; corporate tax is 15%.
Anahita is the 213-hectare estate: several neighbourhoods, villas and apartments of varying standards, two accessible golf courses. The Four Seasons Private Residences are its most service-rich collection — the villas managed by the Four Seasons resort itself. Our Anahita page covers the whole estate; this one focuses on the Four Seasons collection.
Yes. Any acquisition of at least USD 375,000 under the scheme grants a residence permit for the buyer, spouse and children, valid for as long as the property is held. Beyond 183 days per year on the island, you can become a Mauritian tax resident.
GADAIT represents the buyer: registration and follow-up with RIVEO for the renovated collection, access to resale villas (including our own mandates), negotiation, due diligence with vetted Mauritian lawyers, EDB file, residence permit and post-acquisition management. A single point of contact in English or French.
