Love the privacy of your own Private Villa with the bonus of sharing facilities with two 5* resorts.
Location
Set within the Domaine de Bel Ombre on Mauritius’ unspoilt south coast, Heritage The Villas combine the best of both worlds: the privacy of your own residence with the facilities of a luxury estate. Surrounded by mountains, sugarcane fields, and lagoon views, the setting feels expansive and peaceful.
Rooms
The 45 villas range from two to four bedrooms, each with private gardens, terraces, and swimming pools. Interiors are bright and contemporary, with open-plan kitchens and living areas designed for easy indoor–outdoor living. Guests love the flexibility here; it's perfect for families or groups wanting space to relax together.
Amenities
Although self-contained, villa guests have access to all the facilities at Heritage Le Telfair and Awali, including 12 restaurants and bars, a luxury spa, beach clubs, and two championship golf courses. Private in-villa dining and chef services can also be arranged. We love the freedom to mix self-catering with five-star indulgence.
Activities
The Domaine offers endless choice: golf, tennis, and cycling trails, plus snorkelling, diving, and kite surfing in the lagoon. Families can enjoy kids’ and teens’ clubs, nature walks in the Heritage Reserve, or relaxed days by the beach. For groups, private boat charters or in-villa barbecues are especially popular.
Sustainability
Heritage The Villas share the estate’s sustainability ethos, supporting coral reef protection, local sourcing, and plastic-free initiatives. Guests are encouraged to explore the Heritage Nature Reserve, where eco-guides showcase conservation work to protect native flora and fauna. Staying here directly supports these ongoing projects.

January
January is prone to cyclones and rain, so if you're looking for a beach holiday this is not a reliable time to travel.
February
February is the most active period during the cyclone season in Mauritius, so we would avoid travelling at this time
March
In March the weather is hot and humid, with sporadic rainfall as the end of the cyclone season comes to a close. It is a popular time for travellers as the temperatures aren't too high.
April
If you're wanting to travel in April expect hot weather with temperatures rising to 30 degrees with increasing humidity levels.
May
May is one of the best and most popular month to travel to Mauritius, with temperatures hovering over the 25 degrees mark, with easing humidity making for a comfortable climate.
June
During June the temperatures cool to 24 degrees due to the trade winds on the east and south coast of Mauritius, offering warm and sunny days.
July
The temperatures cool again in July, as the trade winds pick up making some of the more open beaches less sheltered and breezy. It is a popular time to travel due to the summer holidays starting in the Northern Hemisphere.
August
Much like July, August experiences increased winds with warm days perfect for watersports and the islands more sheltered beaches. During the evenings temperatures become cooler and you may appreciate a few more layers.
September
In September the trade winds die down and temperatures rise once again, making it the perfect time for snorkelling as diving as the water clarity increases thanks to the calm weather conditions.
October
October is the islands driest month with temperatures exceeding 25 degrees. If you love nature Mauritius is overflowing with exotic flowers and wildlife as everything comes into bloom, making it the best time for mountain hikes and trips to the country's national parks.
November
In November temperatures start to rise again, as does the humidity as the country progresses into its cyclone season. The weather can be unpredictable with small rain showers, meaning it is still a good time to travel to Mauritius.
December
As the festive season looms, December is one of the busiest months for visitors in Mauritius. As humidity builds up, heavy rain showers occur helping lowering the humidity and clearing the heavy skies.
