Luxury Holidays At The Great House

This impressive Colonial-style estate - set on the platinum-white sand of the beachfront, in over an acre of lush, landscaped grounds - will suit a large group of family or friends seeking hotel-style luxury in their own private retreat. Elegant indoor and outdoor living areas, four bedroom suites and four individual chattels are made for relaxing, whilst a team of sixteen staff - from butlers and chefs, to a maid and boatman - attend to your needs. A variety of water-based activities and facilities, including kayaking and a 30ft pleasure boat, are at your disposal at the villa, with gym and tennis facilities available at nearby Port St Charles. The property also boasts a large outdoor swimming pool and a shallow toddlers' pool, while the surrounding garden spills out onto the glistening sand of Turtle Beach, where guests can relax on the soft, warm sand and swim or snorkel in the crystal-clear blue sea.
