The Caribbean Island of St Kitts is about to receive a boost with the construction of luxury hotel and residences planned for Christophe Harbour.
On the southern end of the spectacular Caribbean island of St. Kitts is one of the most luxurious resorts to be found anywhere, Christophe Harbour. Set on some 2,600 acres of dramatic landscape at the southern end of St. Kitts, the resort has 13 miles of shoreline and six secluded beaches. When completed, there will be private homesites, luxury hotel residences, golf villas and oceanfront homes for those who want a property on St. Kitts.
A total of 2,000 residences may be constructed here, though the final number depends on what the current residents and buyers want. A set of featured homesites in Sandy Bank Bay is being specially opened up as the Founders Release. The Residences at the Mandarin Oriental luxury hotel will offer special suites and villas to 60 owners who can enjoy the hotel hospitality any time they want. The hotel will have 125 guest rooms and is expected to open in 2011.
Another feature of Christophe Harbour will be a protected marina with 300 slips, including at least 50 slips for mega yachts. There will be a customs agent on hand for those who wish to sail or motor to their new home in St. Kitts, as well as full concierge and hospitality services for yacht owners and guests.
The island Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis is a two-island nation located at the north end of the Leeward Islands. It is approximately 1,300 miles southeast of Miami and is just a 3 ½ hour plane trip form New York City. St. Kitts is the larger of the two islands, and the main airport is Robert Llewellyn Bradshaw International Airport (SKB). There are nonstop flights from the US and Europe, and Christophe Harbour is just a short drive south of the airport.
