Premium Destination, Luxury Development & Exclusive Holiday
Part of the Mascarene Islands Archipelago, the Republic of Mauritius is an island located in the Indian Ocean about 2000 kilometres off the southeast coast of the African Continent, 900 kilometres east of Madagascar.
Like a living postcard, this volcanic island surrounded by coral reef with a central plateau rimmed by mountains and luxurious tropical vegetation shows a rare contrast of colours that makes the location unforgettable. Rich in History, Mauritius has inherited a cosmopolitan culture, a unique melting pot of people, languages and values with the legacy of Indian, African, European and Chinese origins.
Well-known for its turquoise waters, white sandy beaches and warm climate, Mauritius has proudly established its brand image of one of the world’s top luxury tourist destinations with its renowned hospitality, high quality services and the development of prestigious Resorts (World’s Leading Island Destination Award 2010 & 2011).
Successfully positioned as a distinguished up-market tourist destination, Mauritius has also enhanced its property development sector on the international scene offering secure legal framework with numerous high-return investment opportunities and fiscal benefits such as IHS (Invest Hotel Scheme).
Investment in tourism in Mauritius is boosted by an excellent range of supporting infrastructure, including a well-established network of roads, an efficient seaport and a modern international airport.

“Koki”, the creole word for shell
The Concept
Conceived much like a shell
Koki Bay has been conceived much like a shell; and shaped as a development project that provides the perfect compromise between an investment product and the place where one would like to share precious moments with people we love.
The promoter of the project, Bhooshan Ramloll, a well-established builder in Mauritius has teamed up with the renowned architect Jean Marc Eynaud (Belle Mare Plage, Le Prince Maurice, Shanti Maurice, Constance Ephelia Seychelles) International Hotel & Property Awards Winner 2014, to propose an authentic ‘Tropical Chic’ Boutique-Hotel under the IHS (Invest Hotel Scheme).
Melville, Grand Gaube (North of Mauritius), where Koki Bay nestles, is an untouched niche of the Mauritian landscape; a colorful fishing village with stunning views to the Northern islands that brings peace and tranquility.
With the deep conviction that the design must blend in with the natural environment and respect the principles of simplicity and authenticity, the building footprint of the project represents only 15% of the site. The interior design has stayed true to this ethos. The decoration depicts the story of this beautiful village. The décor throughout is reminiscent of fishing life, nets, antique fishing floats and shell chandeliers unique to Koki Bay.
Koki Bay will provide a unique atmosphere, typically Mauritian, vibrant and energetic, yet tranquil and pampered, in one of the last secluded havens to be found on this exquisite island.
