Ultimate luxury in a relaxed, reclusive atmosphere. Located about 200 miles southeast of Nassau, Guanahani Beach Villas sit on 1.5 miles of powdery sand on the southeast coast of San Salvador in The Bahamas. Exclusively listed by Damianos Sotheby’s International Realty, the elegant resort offers the best of both worlds – luxurious imported finishes and refined décor in a laidback setting ideal for the adventure seeker.
San Salvador, The Bahamas (August 14, 2018)— Two years ago, Carlo and Elena Sparta set off on a quest to find a place that was remote enough to feel secluded, but accessible enough not to intimidate savvy travelers.
They didn’t know exactly where they’d end up, they just knew they’d know when they found it. After embarking on a globe-trotting odyssey that took them to some of the world’s most spectacular locations in Australia, South Africa, Mexico, Baja California and Brazil, their search ended the moment they felt the powdery white sand sift between their toes as they walked along Snow Bay Beach in San Salvador, The Bahamas.
“It was love at first sight,” said Elena Sparta who now owns and operates Guanahani Beach Villas on that very beach. “The bay is breath taking; the colours of the water change several times a day. We knew almost immediately that this was the ideal place for us.”
Nestled on the sand just steps from Pigeon Creek and Snow Bay National Park on the southeast end of San Salvador, Guanahani Beach Villas offer guests three one-bedroom villas and a two-bedroom villa all of which feature elegant touches such as oak wood flooring, crisp white walls, teak furniture, Hansgrohe faucets, Bassini shower heads, Pozzi Ginori ceramics and white mosaic Bisazza shower tiles.
“Using white as the dominant colour was not only a question of taste, but a deliberate choice to ensure that the villas were in harmony with the colours of the sea and the beauty of the nature that surrounds Guanahani,” said Sparta.
Aesthetically driven, these features are what sets Guanahani Beach Villas apart and make it unique in the resort landscape of The Bahamas.
“The European styling combined with the best of The Bahamas beachfront allow for the perfect marriage of European design and Caribbean charm,” said Vanessa Pritchard-Ansell, the Damianos Sotheby’s International Realty Real Estate agent who is exclusively representing the property.
And it’s not just the décor that nurtures a sense of accord throughout Guanahani Villas. With cement roofs and walls and double-glazed hurricane-impact windows on every building, the property is built to weather storms, offering peace of mind for future owners and visitors.
Additionally, louvred doors and windows take full advantage of the trade winds which flow consistently and steadily over San Salvador November through May making the island a dream destination for sailing, kitesurfing and windsurfing. The waters surrounding San Salvador reach as deep as 4,000 meters, attracting divers, snorkelers and fishermen from around the world, particularly from the French and European markets. To serve this ever-growing tourism market, Air Caraibes has increased its airlift with direct flights from Paris to San Salvador every Thursday. The island is also served by direct daily flights from Nassau on American Airlines and BahamasAir , weekly flights from the U.S. and two flights a week from Canada.
Another unique aspect of Guanahani Villas is the ability it grants future owners to establish their own design imprint on the island with the availability of vacant land directly adjacent to the resort.
“The 12,647 sq. ft vacant lot included in the asking price, as well as the surrounding vacant lots available for sale, offer the perfect blank canvas for a developer to project their own vision, or on which they can continue the space-saving architectural style and interior design footprint.”
