Mauritius is not a country that can be said having cities in it. There is only one city which is Port Louis and the country itself can be considered as a city. London or New York or Paris Or Los Angeles are considered cities not Vacoas or Curepipe. The price to live is more or less same everywhere, except land prices differ thats all. The quality of life is same almost everywhere in the world now. You earn good money, you live a decent life, you don't earn enough you will be living through struggles. Thats about it!

Hi.. closer you are to the capital, Port Louis.. its a bit more expensive than living further away .... i was in Mauritius for about 15/20 days and this is what my observation is. I was there to understand the conditions - first hand.

The main costs are property, rental or buying. Once your budget for this defined, everything else is about the same price. Renting a 3 bedroom apartment can cost anything from 18-35000 easily depending on where you want to live. Renting a car, or using public transport? That too depends on your budget and needs. Fuel costs the same all over the country. Prepared food in the malls is also similar. Superstores may have 'offers' but essentially most things cost the same in most superstores. Some things are cheaper in the Port Louis area. Restaurants definitely cost more in the more touristy areas but that too depends on your budget -- there are some very exclusive ones dotted around.  I would look for a place with good transport connectivity and near local markets if posible.
