Top Tips for a Mauritius Golf Holiday

Where is the best resort to play golf in Mauritius?

There is a fantastic selection of luxury golf resorts all over the island. Each offers golf on site, with preferential rates and tee times for hotel guests. For a bit of variation, there is also the option to travel to other courses on the island. Mauritius is a slightly smaller island than Mallorca, so getting to and from any golf course is very easy. 

When is the best time to go on a golf holiday to Mauritius?

With a tropical year-round climate, Mauritius can offer a golf holiday to suit any diary. Whether you are looking to escape for some winter sun or needing some well-earned R&R in the summer, your golf clubs will always be welcome and put to plentiful use. 

Best golf courses in Mauritius?

Anahita Golf Course

Both Anahita and Heritage Golf Clubs take turns to host the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open each year, usually played in early December. The Legends and Links Golf Courses at Constance Resorts are very popular too and held in high regard. Île aux Cerfs is a truly unforgettable golfing experience, the course covering an island that is only accessible by boat transfer. With white sandy beaches and spectacular scenery, how you scored on the course is an afterthought.

What to do whilst in Mauritius

Off the golf course you can wind down on white sandy beaches with piercing blue water. There are world class spas to also take away any aches and pains. You can enjoy kayaking, paddle boarding and other water sports, many of which are free of charge at the resorts. Boat tours are also popular day out, with some offering glass-bottoms to see beneath the surface.

Where do you fly into Mauritius?

Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport is situated in the South East of the island, with all resorts no longer than around 1 hour transfer. There are direct flights from London, with great connecting flights via Dubai from plenty of UK airports. Some golfers like to opt for a short stay here, either on the way there or on return (along with a couple of rounds of course!).
