Be Among the First to Own a Raffles Residence in the Caribbean

Raffles St Lucia, scheduled to open in 2010, is an elegantly appointed 200-room resort with 322 Raffles Private Ownership: luxury villas, casitas, condominiums and estate lots are available for ownership.

Raffles selected the premiere property on the island, a pristine preserve on the prestigious North coast, near the existing St. Lucia Golf & Country Club and Rodney Bay. This island is a paradise with a lush and mountainous interior; beautiful beaches, bays and coral reefs that surround it with endless views. The nearby Rodney Bay Marina is known by sailors for its gorgeous harbour and it will soon be one of the finest in the world as Island Global Yachting has announced its expansion. St. Lucia was recently chosen by Forbes as a top twenty emerging market.

The Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course will be the centrepiece to a site considered truly one of the most magnificent in the Caribbean. The location, with water on three sides, affords breathtaking views, cooling breezes and a series of almost totally private bays and white sand beaches.

The enclave includes a Raffles Amrita Spa and award-winning cuisine, beach clubs and pools, fitness facilities and concierge services.
