Tucked below the hurricane belt, just 12 degrees north of the equator, Grenada woos visitors with its rich culture, warm year-round temperatures and friendly population. It’s a land that tantalizes the senses, from its savory spices to the sounds of calypso music wafting through its vibrant towns. English is the primary language, but French-African Patois adds jazzy notes to daily life. Adventure beckons as well, with hiking trails through untouched rainforests and numerous scuba and snorkeling spots, including an underwater sculpture gallery in the Molinere Beauséjour Marine Protected Area.
In St. David’s Parish, on the southeastern shore of this Caribbean island jewel, sits a 50-acre freehold peninsula ready to embrace development of a hotel or private compound. The area is known as Petit Trou, but this impressive parcel delivers large-scale benefits. A pair of 120-foot ridges deliver sweeping views of the 450-foot stretch of secluded white-sand beach nestled between them. The aquamarine bay at its doorstep remains calm thanks to a protective coral reef, and a few rough roads have already been cut to link the property to the island’s interior and coast. A 30-minute scenic drive transports guests to Maurice Bishop International Airport or the colorful capital, St. George’s, with its shops, cafes and 18th-century hilltop forts that preside over a picturesque harbor.
Essential preliminary actions to ensure the viability of the land are already completed, including soil tests for stability and density and a topographical survey. This virgin territory has never housed structures of any kind—the peninsula is a blank slate for construction that complements the island’s tropical tranquility. As an added advantage, the government of Grenada is supportive of its development. In a region where tourism takes center stage, Grenada remains blissfully authentic, and this sun-drenched peninsula grants its visionary owner a chance to benefit from the island’s singular style.
