The Essence

The Essence is a 55-residence apartment and penthouse development by 2Futures in Trou aux Biches, on Mauritius’s north coast. The developer’s current track record lists the project as under construction. Its dedicated floor-plan schedules cover eight one-, two- and three-bedroom layouts across Blocks A and B, with overall areas from 89 m² to 320.5 m². The official project page places the homes a few steps from Trou aux Biches beach; this is a near-beach location, not a claim that the development is beachfront. Current 2Futures listings reviewed on 13 October 2026 advertise one 2-bedroom penthouse at 151 m² from USD 806,080, which the developer describes as its last 2-bedroom penthouse, and one 3-bedroom apartment at 145 m² from USD 1,450,000. Unit numbers are not shown on those listings. Collection also holds six unit records, which have not yet been matched one-to-one to these live offers. Availability and prices can change; confirm the exact unit, price and sale terms directly with 2Futures before making a decision. The current official floor-plan schedules distinguish interior area (including walls) from the total area. Total area adds the listed terrace, yard and, where shown, private garden.

Check the selected residence’s current sale plan and schedule; the 2022 brochure is historical and its penthouse areas differ from the current floor-plan page. The project’s published specifications describe landscaped common grounds, lift access, a standby generator, water storage and treatment infrastructure, CCTV in common areas, and fibre and telephone reticulation. Apartment and penthouse specifications list one dedicated basement parking bay and one basement store per residence, fitted kitchens and wardrobes, air-conditioning in bedrooms and hot-water provision. Confirm the final specification and any unit-specific inclusions in the sale documents. A common swimming pool is described for residents; Collection’s gallery identifies promotional images as artist’s impressions where applicable. A distinctive part of The Essence offer is access to selected services and facilities associated with the five-star Le Cardinal Exclusive Resort & Spa and Casuarina Resort & Spa, generally at special rates and subject to the partners’ current terms. The developer describes housekeeping and laundry, daily residence cleaning, gardening and routine maintenance, concierge and butler assistance, restaurant and excursion bookings, grocery delivery, event planning, spa and salon services, hotel restaurants and bars, room service, catering and private-chef options. The published privileges also include a Kids’ Club (listed 9 am–4 pm, with babysitting service), Beach Club facilities via Le Cardinal, and watersports such as sailing, windsurfing, paddleboarding, water-skiing, snorkelling and boat excursions. Sports activities listed by the developer include tennis, table tennis, aqua-bike, yoga, Zumba and pétanque. These are hotel or partner services; they are not represented as on-site facilities, free services or automatically included in ownership. Ask for the current privilege schedule and charges. 2Futures’ individual sale listings classify the advertised penthouse and apartment as PDS and describe them as available to Mauritian and foreign buyers. A project overview also labels the scheme G+2, so Collection’s structured scheme and foreign-eligibility fields remain subject to operator review rather than being shown as confirmed. The project is close to Trou aux Biches beach, but its published beach facilities are accessed through Le Cardinal; confirm access rights and charges.
