BEACHCOMBER GOLF
The 18-hole, par 72-championship golf course at Paradis is considered among the best golf courses in the Indian Ocean. At Shandrani, the challenging 9-hole mashie course has a unique layout and golfers consider it great practice for their short game.
Set against a canvas of crystal seas and an impossibly blue sky, there cannot be a more beautiful place in the world to play that perfect round of golf. At hotels where there is no course, golf can be arranged at Paradis or at Mont Choisy Le Golf, a brand new 18-hole golf course in the north of Mauritius.
The Peter Matkovich-designed Mont Choisy Le Golf is set to become a favourite with its unique landscaping. Rolling green grasslands compliment the distinct indigenous rock features of the black volcanic rock outcrops beautifully. Ponds and other water features will add character to the course and natural sand hazards will blend seamlessly with the grassy surroundings. Large palm trees bordering the course lend a typical tropical ambience to the area.
Guests of Canonnier Beachcomber and Trou aux Biches Beachcomber will enjoy special perks and privileges when playing Mont Choisy Le Golf. Similarly Paradis Beachcomber and Dinarobin Beachcomber guests can enjoy privileged access to three other championship courses in the south of the island: Avalon Golf Estate, Heritage Golf Club and Tamarina Golf Estate add variety to a golfing holiday, each with its distinct style and concept. Green fees at Paradis Golf Club and Mont Choisy Le Golf are complimentary from May – September 2018 for guests staying at Paradis Beachcomber, Dinarobin Beachcomber, Canonnier Beachcomber and Trou aux Biches Beachcomber.
A relatively new concept available from the Beachcomber group is the accommodation categories with unique golf-related perks: Trou aux Biches Beachcomber’s Golf Tropical Junior Suite and Dinarobin Beachcomber’s Golf Junior Suite. Guests booking a Golf Junior Suite at Dinarobin or a Golf Tropical Junior Suite at Trou aux Biches Beachcomber get a complimentary golf cart year-round as well as free green fees. The carts are conveniently delivered to the guest’s suite before tee-off at Dinarobin. Those who stay for a sixth night are entitled to a 60-minute massage at their resort’s spa between 10h00 and 14h00. These inclusions are valid for a maximum of two persons per suite.
