The curtain fell on the 7th edition of the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open, held from December 14 to 17, 2023, at Bel Ombre on the brand-new La Réserve Golf Links Louis Oosthuizen, a golf icon and co-architect of the course, brought his talent to the tournament by clinching the title by two strokes, marking his second consecutive victory on the DP World Tour.
on the 18th hole green of La Réserve Golf Links, the first contemporary links-style course in the Indian Ocean, our owners had the privileged opportunity to witness thrilling moments during the tournament. Placed front and center in a VIP box, they witnessed memorable moments, including Louis Oosthuizen’s remarks: “The course is spectacular… “I love links golf because I’m very attached to creating shots in golf… Of course, the views here are also very special.”
Louis wasn’t the only player enjoying his week in Mauritius and specifically in Bel Ombre!
Marcel Siem, Heritage Resorts ambassador, also relished the week in Bel Ombre. Settling in with his family, he participated in the competition earlier in the week and secured a top-20 finish.
Explaining his choice of residence in Mauritius, Marcel shared: “We used to come here for the year-end holidays, spending five to six weeks at a stretch. We met extraordinary people here and realized that Mauritius, and specifically Heritage Villas Valriche, was exactly what we were looking for. Every day, I’m on the golf course at 6:30 am after a workout at 5:30 am. I play 18 holes and am with the kids by 11:30 am. The balance between work and personal life is fantastic here. Just gazing at the ocean is soothing. For us as a family, making our residence here was an easy decision.”
