April 9th 2007: More than
three hundred years ago, English pilgrims landed on the
island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas, and brought with them a
spirit of friendship and ease that has remained a part of
its island life. With Eleuthera’s rich history, it comes as
no surprise that Eleuthera Properties, Ltd. and Starwood
Hotels and Resorts Worldwide chose this pristine location to
create Cotton Bay Estates & Villas. This unique luxury
residential resort community will feature Starwood’s first
Luxury Collection property in the Bahamas and will be the
first resort in the Bahamas to work with the Audubon
International Signature Program to preserve the island
environment. Cotton Bay Estates
features 114 estate lots, from which buyers may
choose ocean view, ocean and Caribbean views
or interior home sites on which to build a dream home.
Opening in November 2007, Cotton Bay Villas will offer one-,
two- and three-bedroom villas available for purchase that
will be part of the Starwood Luxury Collection hotel.
Designed by Wimberly, Alison, Tong and Goo, in collaboration
with Paula Fox Interiors, two-and three-bedroom villas
inspired by Eleuthera’s natural vegetation and pristine
beaches will surround Cotton Bay’s 27,000-sq. ft. clubhouse,
complete with tennis, swimming, a fitness center, retail, a
restaurant and a lounge. Situated on a lake, one-bedroom Zen
Suites will allow residents to relax with their feet in the
water while lounging on their patios.
Additional amenities at Cotton Bay will
include private beaches, a full-service dive shop, sport
fishing charters, a bird sanctuary and professional property
management. Future phases will include an 18-hole
championship golf course, a state-of-the-art spa and
wellness center and expansion of the private marina, which
is currently open with 38 slips.
Whether
basking in the sun or taking advantage of the resort’s
recreational possibilities for snorkeling, scuba diving,
windsurfing, fishing, and more in future phases, life at
Cotton Bay Estates & Villas promises to instill the same
appreciation for Eleuthera that once inspired the renowned
painter Winslow Homer. Nearby trips to Harbour Island off
the north coast, a short ferry ride to Spanish Wells, or a
visit to neighboring Windermere Island, often frequented by
members of the British Royal Family, are all within reach of
Cotton Bay.
Easily
accessible from Nassau and South Florida by both commercial
and private air carriers, Cotton Bay Estates & Villas will
recapture the golden era of resort living with its pink sand
beaches, fragrant hibiscus blossoms and sun-drenched
Caribbean colors. The island’s serene colonial villages and
verdant, rolling hills offer the perfect companion to Cotton
Bay Estates & Villas, conveying a sense of relaxed
refinement and blissful, timeless ease.
Cotton Bay
Estates & Villas will evoke a casual elegance, combining
simplicity with island style, to create a distinctively
elegant atmosphere along with the impeccable service that is
the hallmark of Starwood’s Luxury Collection.
