Property in Souillac
Souillac is the wild South in its purest form: the Gris Gris cliffs where the ocean strikes without a reef, the Roche qui Pleure, villages where time flows differently. No built-up seafront here, no rows of residences: what you buy is the Mauritius that predates tourism.

Living in Souillac
The coast here is spectacular: at Gris Gris, the ocean arrives without a coral barrier and sculpts the cliffs, a sight few visitors ever see. The village keeps its Telfair garden facing the sea, its local tables and its Mauritian daily life, far from the tourist zones.
Bel Ombre and its services are fifteen minutes to the west, the airport twenty-five minutes: the wild South is not as isolated as it looks.
The Souillac property market
It is one of the most confidential markets on the island: Creole character houses, plots with ocean views, small village houses. Prices remain among the gentlest in Mauritius, in keeping with an area still untouched by development.

Frequently asked questions
Can a foreigner buy property in Souillac?
Yes, in the region's approved schemes, mainly around Bel Ombre fifteen minutes away, and in R+2 residences. A purchase of USD 375,000 or more in an approved scheme entitles the whole family to a residence permit, with the right to work.
Can you swim in Souillac?
The Souillac and Gris Gris coast is oceanic, without a lagoon: superb but not really for swimming. The beaches of Riambel and the Bel Ombre area, a few minutes away, offer the lagoon.
Why are prices so gentle in Souillac?
The area has stayed clear of tourist development: few residences, plenty of farmland and villages. It is a market of opportunities for those looking for character and space rather than services.
