Beginning October 1, 2009, all guests staying at Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita can enjoy unlimited golf – including a golf cart fitted with GPS – on a fully complimentary basis.

“We want every guest to have the opportunity to play the course at Four Seasons Mauritius,” says Andrew Harrison, general manager of the Resort. “Ernie Els has created a championship course that is a challenge for experienced golfers, but also encourages play at all levels, so families can golf together.”

“Intricately woven into the scenery, the course is designed with a close eye on preserving the coastline’s natural beauty,” says Ernie Els. “The way we have routed the course means it moves in and out of the trees, along the water and back, giving players great variety – including spectacular rocky outcrops, large native trees and jaw-dropping views of the mountains and Indian Ocean.”

The 7,372-yard, par-72 championship course is built to exacting USGA standards, making it unique in the Indian Ocean, and is one of the longest golf courses on the island.

The Mauritian-styled Golf Clubhouse is situated close to the 18th hole and includes a well-stocked pro shop, restaurant, bar, locker rooms and fitness centre. The Golf Academy completes the experience by offering innovative golfing programmes for all levels, plus cutting-edge technology, golf swing analysis and instruction to help more competitive golfers improve their game.

Cocooned within 26 hectares (64 acres) of the former Deep River Beau Champ sugar plantation estate, Four Seasons Resort Mauritius occupies its own stretch of coastline along Mauritius’ largest lagoon on the east coast. With subtropical maritime temperatures (average highs of 32°C (90°F) from October to May and 24°C (75°F) from June to September), visitors can enjoy year-round golfing with exceptional facilities and value.

Golfers may also take advantage of the Stay Longer package, which includes two complimentary nights with every seven-night stay plus a food and beverage credit of EUR 500.00. Additional packages are also available.
