Initially, this development was configured around the demands of the South African market; many of whom are looking to invest their money offshore and are very familiar with the lifestyle and investment benefits associated with Mauritius. As a result, St Antoine Private Residence launched Phase 1 in South Africa, prior to the international market, providing a significant catalyst to the sales overall,” says Norbert Koenig, Director of Red4 and co-developer of St Antoine Private Residence.

Situated north of Mauritius, only 10-minutes from Grand Baie, St Antoine Private Residence boasts unsurpassed sea views, direct ocean access, resort-style facilities, and the significant benefits that come with investing in Mauritius.
