Hi everybody,

I'm arriving at beautiful Mauritius on the 27th of November for a 3 months stay (hopefully 6 months if I am allowed to).

I have been following this forum for some time and found some really valuable information. Thanks to all for sharing. I hope I can attend one of your meetings when I'm there.

Mine is a solo adventure and I am planning to rent a place with one or two rooms in Grand Baie, Pereybere, Trou Aux Biches or Flic en Flac areas. Preferably, close to the beach. I did not want to arrange this online as I want to see the places with my own eyes.

So if anyone knows a place with a monthly rental between 15 to 20 thousand rupees at most, please PM me. I prefer not to pay commission to agents, therefore please let me know if you are an owner or if you know an owner.

Also any information for cheap car rental is very welcome.

Can't wait to be there!

Cheers,
Özgür

Hello Ozgur,

Next to our house in Albion (at about 18 km from Flic en Flac and Port Louis) is a little house(26 m2) with a terrace. It was originally intended for a watchman/gardener. Meanwhile our house has been equipped with an alarm and that means that the small house is vacant. The small house is suitable en furnished for a permanent occupation by one person. We rent this little house for two hundred and twenty euro monthly, incl. water, electricity, gas, bed linen and once per week housekeeping.

The house is about 200 meters from the beach.

Regards,

Aquamarlin

Thanks for all the info!

Nasreen, I prefer the west or north coast. But I'll contact you if I change my mind when I get there.

Aquamarlin, I'll send you my e-mail address for the pics. Thanks!

Mike, I browsed the web site and found some nice places. I'll check them out when I arrive.

Do you guys happen to know anyone related to budget car rental?

Cheers,
Özgür
