 Luxury Resorts: The Timbers Company
has received approval to begin work on the Preserve at
Botany Bay. The multi-use luxury resort will be
developed on 367 acres located in the secluded western
tip of St. Thomas. Previously, the area was the
private property of the Corning family. This luscious
haven of a site has had no public access to it for
approximately 80 years. Fifty-two private estate lots
are available now for sale that will allow owners to
raise dream homes or dreamy investment properties. The
lots range in size from two to 14 acres and offer
postcard-like picturesque views of the Atlantic and
Caribbean waters. Owners of these lots will be treated
like guests and receive the same service and amenities
of travelers staying at the soon-to-be five-star
boutique hotel.
There also will be 40 two-story hilltop villas with
three- and four-bedroom homes, as the dwellings will
be spread over 20 two-story duplexes. Fall 2006 is the
anticipated release date of these villas.
Additionally, 25 hillside lots, which are to be built
on one- and two-acre lots, are scheduled for release
in the summer of 2007. A private-residence club will
offer furnished residences with four bedrooms and
3,600 square-feet of living area.
As previously indicated, a five-star boutique hotel
with 48 one-bedroom suites and 18 two-bedroom suites
is being incorporated into this luxury complex. Fine
and casual dining restaurants along with ample
nightlife options complete the mix. Biking, hiking,
diving and snorkeling and guided day trips will be
offered by the beach club. Elaborate exercise
facilities and a full-service spa are planned as well.
The Timbers Company is renowned for developing
multi-use luxury complexes and resorts with additional
lavishly extravagant properties such as The Timbers
Club in Snowmass, Colorado; The Rocks Luxury Residence
Club in Scottsdale, Arizona; the Esperanza Resort in
Cabo San Lucas, Mexico; the Castello di Casole in
Tuscany, Italy; and One Steamboat Place in Steamboat
Springs, Colorado.
