Heritage Le Telfair — Putting by the Palm Trees

On the south coast of Mauritius, nestled within the Bel Ombre Biosphere Reserve, Heritage Le Telfair is set in a 6,000-acre tropical paradise, filled with fragrances of hibiscus and frangipani, and surrounded by a stunning lagoon. The flagship 5-star property of Heritage Resorts & Golf, this setting is reminiscent of the prestigious Mauritian plantations and has carved out a global reputation thanks to its two elite golf courses.

Considered one of the world's most sought-after golfing destinations, Le Golf du Château features an 18-hole course set against a picture-postcard backdrop, winding its way through hills, tropical gardens and former sugar cane fields. Ideal for honing your swing and how you read the greens, the course offers access to the "Leadbetter Golfzone Academy", named after its star coach. Simulators, video analysis and new technologies are used here to train beginners.

The more immersive La Réserve Golf Links begins on the heights of Bel Ombre and ends at the clubhouse facing the lagoon. Designed by South African golfer Louis Oosthuizen and architect Peter Matkovich, the course follows the natural contours of the land and offers spectacular ocean views from each of its 18 holes. Named "The World's Best New Golf Course" in 2024, it has since become the favourite playground of world champions from across the globe. Heritage Le Telfair 5* embodies a quiet grandeur, where past and present meet in a singular experience.
