Overview
Starting with a stunning location on Prickly Bay, the properties are all designed to make the most of the constantly changing view, as yachts come and go, and to provide a unique combination of inside/outside living. The development offers the very best of both worlds - the hassle-free amenities of a first class hotel with the privacy and comfort of your own home, your own private space. Landscaped gardens and a series of swimming pools, running the whole length of the development and joined together, so you can swim the full two hundred metres, are maintained for your enjoyment, along with tennis courts, restaurants, bars and other facilities. If you prefer to swim in privacy, some of the properties, including some of the apartments and the duplex apartments, have their own private plunge or spa pools.
Location
Prickly Bay Waterside development sits at the water’s edge of the Lance-aux-Epines peninsular in the fashionable southern end of Grenada, less than ten minutes drive from the airport.
Plans
At the water’s edge are the Marine Houses, imposing five bedroom, five bathroom houses, largely made out of composite and built out over the water on steel and concrete piles, looking for all the world like moored superyachts. There are wooden decks on both sides of the house and on the port side there are built-in, shock-absorbing fenders and full services. Each house has a berth alongside suitable for a yacht up to 140 feet. With a total of 6,179 square feet of internal and external space, 3,239 of that internal, the Marine Houses feel wonderfully spacious. The main reception and dining room on the ground floor is a massive, double height space, with glass doors opening out to the spa and deck. Aikona yacht decking is used throughout to continue the superyacht feel. A carbon fibre spiral staircase leads from the deck up to the master bedroom’s private
balcony above. And four other bedrooms, all with en suite bathrooms, have private views over the bay. A glass staircase leads back to the ground floor. At its base is a glass floor, which is underlit at night and provides intriguing views into the Ocean. Also on the ground floor is a spectacular Miele kitchen, a utility room and cold store, a boat store and a docking port for the buggy, that comes with the house. Parking for the Marine Houses is provided in the central area and each house has its own buggy to transport people and provisions from the car parking to the house/berth and to use around the development. The roof terrace (1,152 square feet) provides a stunning entertainment
area, served by a dumb waiter from the kitchen on the ground floor, and has its own barbecue and cloakroom facilities.
Behind the Marine Houses, a 4m wide boardwalk circles the site. Traffic
on the boardwalk is restricted to pedestrians and buggies, making it the
perfect place for a promenade alongside a series of interlinked swimming
pools, that run the whole length of the property. The first pool to be built is
a 50m x 5m, Olympic size lap pool. On the landside of the swimming pools are manicured lawns. Overlooking the lawns themselves and looking over and between the Marine Houses to the bay beyond are the Lawn Houses, each with five bedrooms, five bathrooms, double height living spaces and glass doors that open out
onto generous balconies. The internal space in the lawn houses is just under 4,000 square feet and they feel immensely spacious. On the ground floor, there’s a built-in double garage and a beautifully appointed Miele kitchen, with a utility room and a
cold store. The double height reception area opens to the terrace and
lawns and swimming pools beyond. Finished throughout with white
limestone flooring, there’s an optional glass mezzanine, reached by a
carbon fibre, spiral staircase, which overlooks the reception and fronts the
study/games room on the first floor. Two large double bedrooms and
bathrooms complete the first floor layout. The second floor has two further large double bedrooms and bathrooms plus the master bedroom suite, which comes with dressing room and a bathroom with sliding wall panels to allow you to lie in the bath and talk to someone in the bedroom or to enjoy the view out over your private balcony. The roof terrace, like all the other floors, is served by a four person
passenger lift and has stunning possibilities for entertaining, with a built-in
barbecue and drinks cooler. A storeroom and a cloakroom, with shower,
complete the facilities.
As you move away from the sea, the land starts to rise steeply. Set into
the cliff itself, and enjoying amazing views over the whole property are
the Apartments and Duplex Apartments.
Beautiful solid white limestone floors are fitted throughout. All have glass
doors at the front with large balconies (some positively huge) to expand the
already generous living space still further. Some have roof terraces, some
have plunge pools, some have both. There is a great deal of variety - one,
two or three bedrooms, horizontal as well as vertical duplexes but all with
stunning views and all beautifully appointed.
The apartments and duplex apartments have one bathroom for every
bedroom. The majority have an additional bathroom/cloakroom to cater for
those extra guests. Beautifully appointed with Miele kitchens and luxury
bathrooms, these are fabulous examples of gracious, spacious living.
