10 Nov 2019

Along the pristine seaside shores of the northern coastline of Mauritius at Cap Malheureux, and against the backdrop of the islet of Coin de Mire, is the new upscale water village of Cap Marina - only 50 metres from the beach and an ideal investment opportunity for the South African market.

Cap Malheureux in Mauritius is on the northern side of the island and the new village of Cap Marina will offer residents a variety of restaurants, with the clubhouse and swimming pool overlooking the Green Park.

Severine Dalais-Pietersen, Administrative & Marketing Executive at Seeff Mauritius, says Cap Malheureux offers the ideal spot for this new prestigious development.

“Within an area of more than 22 hectares, Cap Marina will be steeped in nature and covered with many plants that will give a tropical and holiday atmosphere to the resort. The project will offer a variety of properties to Mauritians and foreigners alike and will boast exquisite, ultra-modern architecture.

“This far-reaching project revolutionises the real estate market in Mauritius by combining high-end residential living with the natural environment. Furthermore Cap Marina focuses on sustainability by developing eco-friendly building techniques, energy-efficient installations and equipment.

Dalais-Pietersen says Cap Marina will offer a variety of properties that will range in price between R3 million for a one bedroom apartment up to R73 million for a five bedroom villa of 858sqm.

“Luxurious properties with a choice of different designs and sizes are available and these properties, offered at attractive prices, present the ideal residential property for customers of all ages and from all walks of life, from senior citizens looking for the ideal retirement home to young couples in search of their first home."

Cap Marina will consist of the following: 

Harmony Villas: This senior village offers freestanding ground floor villas with a cosy and relaxed atmosphere.
