20 A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY AT BEOLIERE, MAHE, SEYCHELLES 09 BELONGING TO WESTVIEW COMPANY LIMITED

INTRODUCTION 1. The property comprising two plots with Title number B240 and B241 at Beolière on the West Coast of Mahe in the Seychelles are owned by Westview Company Limited. The total area of the two plots which are adjacent to each other 208,267 square meters. The company also controls a smaller adjacent plot, B2343, with an area of 1,119 square meters. 2. The property has been earmarked for a tourism development project and has received approval in the past for such developments. These have not happened because of lack of development funds. 3. The company would like to promote the development of a tourism project

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY AT BEOLIERE 1. Beolière Property was traditionally an agricultural area which in the 1970’s was converted into an entertainment establishment, locally known then as the Country Club, featuring a mini-golf, restaurant, cinema and discotheque. Approximately 68% of the land is buildable, which is a very high percentage for Seychelles. 2. The top part of the property, identified on the map, with an area of 18,534 m² (9% of the total area), could be dedicated to a more traditional tourism development comprising self-catering villas and a restaurant. This area is characterized by superb views but is at the same time invisible from the public roads. It is estimated that 10 villas each with an area of 175m² could be comfortably sited there. 3. The remainder of the land may be divided into three zones. (i) A very steep zone with an area of 67,360 m^2 (32% of the total area) which cannot be used for any kind of development. (ii) A flat area previously dedicated to agricultural development through which the main entrance of the property runs of approximately 50,287 sq. meter (iii) A balance of 66,241.4 sq. meters (32 % of total area or 47% of useful area) of flattish land having a beautiful panoramic view of the sea and the surrounding islands. This area is very boulder strewn overlaying a massive glacis rising out from the sea-as may be seen from the GIS map of the area. Small pockets of soils may be found here and there. It is overlain with a humus layer-consisting largely of dead cinnamon, coco-plum and casuarinas leaves. Large areas are covered with cinnamon and coco plum plantations interspersed with endemics and indigenous trees. The latter tend to be largely located the side of the property adjoining the Grand Anse side of Mahe. This area is ideal for a tourism development.

21 (iv) The property is fenced all around its entire perimeter, except at its steepest slopes. It is also connected to the national electricity grid and to the national treated water system. A motorable road in two places connects it to the national road system. (v) The property has approximately of 580 meters of coastline of which 90 meters are occupied by a sandy beach. It is very private (vi) The advantages offered by the property are the following: a. It is very private-can only be seen from the sea as it is hedged between two ridges-but still close to the public road. It is only a 30-minute drive from Victoria, the capital. b. It has stunning view of the West Coast and the South Coast, and especially the island of Therese and the rocky island off Grand Anse Mahe. c. It is completely fenced, except for a stretch which has very steep escarpments on the Northern side of it d. It has road access, electricity and treated water; note road access is from two sides-from the bottom and from the top e. It is one of the last prime sites available on Mahe for tourism development. It would also lend itself to an agricultural development on part of the property f. It is close to the public road but still very private. g. It has a long waterfront (580 meters) inclusive of a 90-meter white sandy beach
