About this hunt
Rusa deer is a beautiful esthetic deer that was introduced from Java Island by the Dutch in 1639. Since that time the deer population exploded under the hunters regulation and nowadays they are plenty and with some of the biggest trophies available. They can weight 320, up to 400 pounds for the biggest one at the beginning of the season. The heaviest antlers my clients shot was close to 15.4 pounds (7 kilos) and the longest was 39 inches. The average is 33 inches with good mass and the hunt is only by walk and stalk.

Where you will stay
La Villa La Vie Là
If our guests want to stay in a 5 stars resorts we have more than 20 to recommend you close by the estate but we think to stay with us inside our family can be pleasant for our international clients and a win win relation rather than to leave you in your resort after a wonderful hunting moment. We recommend you to try for a 2 or 3 nights during your hunt and then to finish your stay by a 5 stars resort. We can also propose you our guest house as many days you need. Our house is facing a 150 degrees Ocean view. It is located in a small local village boundering the hunting estate. Our guest house is a 440 square meter villa with a master bed room measuring 55 square meter, a kids bed room measuring 35 square meters.

Excellent hunting experience
A truly honest outfitter ( It’s hard to find an outfitter that is honest and isn’t only interested in taking your money.) Everything Lionel said he delivered and more. I highly recommend and trust him and I will definitely return with friends and family Brian Alaska. United States
Magnificient hunting, great time and relaxing vacation on Mauritius
Excellent and professional hunting, "care-taking" and service by the PH and outfitter Mr. Lionel Berthault. Great package of hunting and vacation on the beautiful island of Mauritius. Awesome trip and accomodations as well as food and drinks. My non-hunting wife loved the time there. Fantastic combination of hunting and spending a nice vacation. Great rusa stags, wild boar and small game opportunities as well as fishing. Lots of sights to see and things to do. Everytime again.
That I had just 10 days of vacation on Mauritius
Excellent hunting experience
