Golf Escapes 2009 - (Page 65) with the space and freedom of a private home. Offering a 24-hour concierge, daily maid service and personal villa master, Anahita ensures every whim is catered for. The private residences combine contemporary elegance with evocative island tradition, truly capturing the essence of Mauritian life – the great outdoors. Light airy rooms extend on to large verandas overlooking the ocean, mountains or golf course and come complete with a relaxing plunge pool and space to enjoy dinner al fresco under the stars cooked by your own Mauritian chef. The dramatic, par-72, full yardage Ernie Els golf course showcases one of the world’s most sensational tee-to-green experiences, with 18holes of demanding tee-offs, meticulous fairways and greens. Els proclaims: “It is an amazing experience, with spectacular views – an assault on the senses, so to speak. And trust me, the 18th hole is one of the most impressive that I’ve seen anywhere in the world.” AP T worhe grea ld’s goltest esca f pes ES l GOLF ESCAP ES G OL SCAPES l GO FE LF Anahita clubhouse.
