MARKET INSIGHTS

Dubai Developer Profits from Mauritius Brand

A Dubai developer is selling the Mauritius dream without any Mauritian involvement. DAMAC Properties, the Middle East's leading private luxury real estate developer, launched DAMAC Islands 2 in November 2025 with eight themed clusters. One bears the name "Mauritius." No Mauritian agencies, developers or partners appear in any marketing materials. The project appropriates the country's established brand equity to sell waterfront villas built around artificial lagoons in Dubailand.

This borrowing validates something significant. Mauritius has arrived as a globally recognised luxury real estate market. DAMAC placed the island alongside Bahamas, Tahiti, Maui, Bermuda, Antigua and Cuba in its tropical portfolio. For an international developer to bank on "Mauritius" as shorthand for exclusivity confirms decades of brand-building have succeeded.
