Villas Valriche will offer 288 private plantation-style villas set in over 200 hectares of lush, landscaped grounds, enjoying some of the most spectacular views on the island. The estate is bordered by the stunning Valriche Nature Reserve to the north and world class hotels to the south. Amidst the immaculately preserved and thoughtfully landscaped environment is the majestic Château de Bel Ombre. Dating back to the 1800s, it has now been faithfully restored as an elegant restaurant.

All development at Bel Ombre is planned sympathetically to protect the natural beauty of the region. A collection of low-built luxury hotels borders the shoreline, with new resorts being added further along the coast. There are also plans to convert the old sugar factory into a crafts and shopping centre. Convenient for the airport, the vibrant town of Black River is just over 20 minutes drive to the west, with Port Louis and all its shops, restaurants and markets about 60 minutes to the north.
