About NextHome

Transforming student accommodation in Mauritius through innovation, trust, and community. We're dedicated to making every international student's experience safe, comfortable, and memorable.

Our Journey in Mauritius

Founded in 2020 by a group of former international students, NextHome was born from firsthand experience with the challenges of finding quality accommodation in Mauritius. We understand the anxiety of moving to a new country and the importance of having a safe, comfortable home.

What started as a small initiative to help fellow students has grown into Mauritius' most trusted student accommodation platform. We've expanded from Réduit to serve students across the island, connecting thousands of international students with verified, high-quality living spaces.

Our team combines local expertise with international perspectives to create solutions that truly meet the needs of today's students. We're not just a booking platform - we're a community that supports students throughout their educational journey in Mauritius.

Our Story

From a student project to Mauritius' leading accommodation platform

Building Trust in Student Accommodation

NextHome began as a university project by three international students who struggled to find reliable accommodation. Frustrated by the lack of transparency and safety concerns in the market, they decided to create a solution.

Starting with just 20 verified properties in Réduit, we've grown to serve students across Mauritius. Our expansion was driven by student feedback and the clear need for a trustworthy platform that prioritizes safety and convenience.

Today, we work with universities, landlords, and student organizations across Mauritius to ensure every international student has access to safe, affordable, and comfortable accommodation.

Our commitment remains the same: to make the transition to student life in Mauritius as smooth and positive as possible for every student who chooses our beautiful island for their education.
