Great photos (as usual) and these look like a wonderful addition to the LUSSO Collection.

From the site plans I have found, the homes are on property that fronts the ocean and has a private cove... the homes angle from that cove and inland. (if that makes any sense...)

Here is the official announcement.

LUSSO's Newest Destination: Anguilla

We are excited to present our two newest oceanfront villas on the tropical island of Anguilla-the ideal, upscale destination for a tranquil island getaway in the sun.

Anguilla is often referred to as "tranquility wrapped in blue." Home to 33 white-sand beaches, it is surrounded with waters so clear you can see the ocean floor from 100 feet above. Here you will enjoy some of the calmest swimming waters-also perfect for snorkeling right off the beach where iridescent fish congregate. Those wanting to delve into deeper waters can try scuba diving, swimming with the dolphins, windsurfing and glass-bottom boat tours. Off the water, visit stylish art galleries, tour historic sites and museums, or taste some of Anguilla's famed five-star cuisine.

Our two, oceanfront villas-Sandpiper and Indigo Cove-overlook stunning views of turquoise waters that look toward the mountains of St. Martin. Classic Caribbean architecture form sophisticated and elegant indoor spaces with a rich mix of wood, stone and concrete. Every bedroom has a private bath and walk-out ocean views. The spacious, open floor plans of the main gathering areas seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. Sea-view pools, tropical pavilions and a secluded cove beach provide for a peaceful oasis.

Here you will be surrounded with luxury as you enjoy secluded white-sand beaches, vivid blue skies and clear ocean waters truly a trip to paradise.

At this point, I believe that Exclusive Resorts is the only other player in this destination, and they are to be at the Viceroy.

I have moved the last three posts that deal specifically with the Abaco Club here (The Ritz Carlton Residences at Abaco thread) so that they could be found by people seeking information on it.

im hearing from a local that the baccarat is continuing to deal with serious problems. perhaps it will change hands again.

apparently even the viceroy is dealing with cost overruns. but their backing seems solid. Market Wire | Find Articles at BNET >

The financing follows two other facilities arranged by Sonnenblick-Eichner Company including the initial land loan for the acquisition of the unentitled development site. The project is being developed by Los Angeles-based Kor Hotel Group and Lubert-Adler Real Estate Funds.
