Le Morne Beach Cottage - beach front cottage at kite and surfspot

This private holiday home is situated at Le Morne Village in the southern part of Mauritius island, with direct access to the beach just across from the cottage. The house consists of two separate apartments on two floors. The apartment is designed to accommodate four persons.

You find turquoise water and white sand beaches on the lagoon just across the quiet beach road from the house, or 10 minutes away by foot at “la Prairie” Beach. In addition, a huge range of leisure activities is available at Le Morne.
You have direct access to the world famous wind - and kite surfing spot at Le Morne lagoon. Depending on the wind direction, you can start a days surfing right in front of your holiday cottage.


Surfing: The best travel time for surfing on the island is from May to October, this is winter on Mauritius (22-25 degrees) and you have reliable winds. Midsummer is from December to February, great beach weather with approximately 30 degrees, but changing wind conditions!

You find anything that makes the heart of a surfer beat faster: flat water, and a shallow area, just in front of the house and not crowded. After a downwind trip of 10 minutes you can find waves for beginners (little reef), waves for advanced surfers (manawa) and expert waves (one eye). Depending on the wind direction surfing and kite surfing is possible right from your doorstep.

You have 3 possibilities to access the Le Morne lagoon-

- in front of the house
- 1000m windward from “La Prairie” beach
- or from the most popular surf spot on the island, on the opposite side of the lagoon next to the Indian Resort and Mornea Hotel

Infrastructur: The Bus stop is just 20m away from the cottage, the bus network is very good and cheap on the Island. You find bus connections to the cities, interurban connections or along the coast. We recommend having a rental car but it is not absolutely necessary.

The water in the house is heated only by a solar system only. In the evening you should not shower too long, at some point the buffer is empty and is not reheated without sun. During the day and when the sun is shining you can shower as long as you want.

Mauritius is a tropical island and the heat means that windows and doors are usually open. Therefore, even with intensive cleaning, it is not possible to get rid of all insects. Do not leave food open, close the package after use or put the food in the refrigerator. There they are safe from ants and other insects

I would not recommend this property
The standard of the actual property was ok. It should be noted that the image is of a whole house but it is divided into two properties. What cannot be seen is the 5foot wall separating the garden from the very busy road. The garden is in fact for parking the cars. Immediately next door is the village beer outlet. There was a lot of loud people noise during the day and evening. Together with the 20 to 30 stray dogs roaming the village almost every house seemed to have their own dog kept outside and together they managed to bark off and on all night.

A wonderful place, very well equipped and good location for getting into the national parks.
Francois, who looks after the property, was very helpful and even lends you a local mobile phone sim. The property is equipped to a very high standard, is only 10 minutes drive from one of the best beaches we've found so far on Mauritius, is handy for getting into the national park for walking, not 10 minutes drive away there is a wonderful supermarket and fresh fruit and vegetable roadside stalls. I would highly recommend this place....at the price it's a bargain!!! .....the house is on a busy road and surrounded by locals houses which didn't bother us at all....we rather enjoyed watching all the local activity pass by!

Great cottage and location despite the road between the cottage and the beach.
Just as described. The cottage is very nice and well equipped. Air conditioning works but is additional. Village can be quite lively on weekends but not too late in the evening.

Authentisch wohnen auf Mauritius
Ein sehr schönes Cottage im Süden von Mauritius. Man wohnt im kleinen Fischerdorf nicht weit vom Wind/Kite-Spot entfernt (mit dem Auto 10 Minuten). Die Menschen sind sehr freundlich und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Génial
Les petites maisons de Frédéric sont très agréables, bien placées, en bon état. Seul bémol, il manque quelques ustensiles en cuisine ( verres, bol) Mais à part ça c'était parfait. Il faut accepter de vivre à la mauricienne, à leur rythme

Sehr schöne Ferienwohnung zum Weiterempfehlen!
Können diese Fewo nur weiter empfehlen! Wurden von Anfang bis Ende sehr gut betreut. Die Fewo hat alles was man braucht, alles sehr sauber und neuwertig. Stilvoll eingerichtet. Wäscheservice möglich. Die Fewo wurde zwischendurch gereinigt. Ruhige & entspannte Umgebung. Tolle Lage an der Lagune. Wir kommen sehr gern wieder! LG von der Ostsee

Sehr gepflegtes Häuschen mitten im wahren, einheimischen, Leben von Le Morne Village.
Sehr gute Lage für Kiter, wenn die Windrichtung passt, kann man direkt vom Hausstrand wegfahren. Allerdings gibt es teils ordentlich lauten Verkehr auf der Straße und nachts bellen viele Hunde. Wen das nicht stört findet hier eine tolle preisgünstige Unterkunft für 4 Personen. Der Vermieter ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit und gibt gerne viele gute Tipps. 😊
