2011 Cost of Living in Mauritius

Hi,

I know this topic has been discussed but I saw the posts date from 2008. I was wondering if anyone can give a new cost of living in mauritius break down that is more up to date. Please include things such as rental prices for a family of 3, car rental, medical fees, food and schooling if possible. Thanks
