It doesn’t take long upon arriving at Cabot Saint Lucia for the first “Wow!” to escape your lips. Travelling through the entrance gate to this 375-acre private members’ community, your transport crests a hill and then dips steeply downwards – like a rollercoaster tipping over its thrilling first drop.
That’s when you see it: before you, the coastline’s ragged edge is locked in an eternal battle with the waves of the Atlantic; the manicured fairways of Point Hardy Golf Club duck and dive along the volcanic terrain; and exceptional understated residences hunker into the verdant hills standing sentry over the panoramic vista. It’s easy to overstate the natural beauty of the Caribbean’s innumerable great views, but few spots can challenge the visual spectacle of Cabot’s position on the northern tip of Saint Lucia.
Overseen by Cabot – the visionary golf developers behind some of the world’s best golf courses, including Cabot Cape Breton in Nova Scotia, Canada, Cabot Citrus Farms in Florida, USA, and Cabot Highlands in Inverness, Scotland – this private community brings together jaw-dropping natural surroundings, beach and oceanside living, and world-class amenities in one highly exclusive slice of island life.
A 75-minute drive (or eight-minute helicopter flight) from Hewanorrah International Airport and just ten minutes from the island’s private airport, Cabot Saint Lucia is located on a 1.5-mile stretch of breathtaking coastline, tastefully adorned with but a handful of hilltop and oceanfront residences that are presently available for purchase to the lucky few.
The architectural style is undoubtedly Caribbean, leaning towards quiet luxury, and combines outdoor living with modern interiors and services. Each building uses sustainably sourced local materials where possible and is crafted in an environmentally conscious manner to ensure they have a strong ‘sense of place’ as much as a contemporary feel.
There are a number of residential opportunities available, including custom-built homes and luxury residences, such as the four-bedroom semi-detached Horizon Villas. These properties are positioned above the 11th fairway of Point Hardy Golf Course and feature sweeping views of Cas-en-bas Beach to the south of the site. In a further boost for time-precious owners, the residences also come with the added benefit of being full turnkey solutions to provide buyers the simplest means of purchasing property at Cabot Saint Lucia.
At the heart of the community is Point Hardy Golf Club, an 18-hole masterpiece co-designed by legendary golf architects Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw. The course is carved into the rugged terrain, an extremely challenging and ambitious routing that required all of the experience of the agronomy team to bring to life, the dramatic coastline comes into play on nine of the 18 holes, while delivering panoramic ocean views and thrilling shot values across the awe-inspiring experience. Recently named the #1 golf course in Mexico, the Caribbean, the Atlantic Islands, and Central America by GOLF Magazine, it also ranks among the Top 100 Courses in the World, despite only opening for play at the beginning of 2024.
Point Hardy Golf Club is set to become one of the world’s most exclusive private members’ clubs
Designed more by nature than by man, it challenges seasoned golfers while celebrating the island's unique topography. With its oceanfront fairways, cliffside tees, and natural bunkering, Point Hardy is both a test of skill and a feast for the senses; every round is a balance between a strategic chess match and a wild island adventure.
Unlike the group’s public golf offerings, Point Hardy Golf Club is set to become one of the world’s most exclusive private members’ clubs with only an approximate 250 memberships being offered at launch to home owners purchasing one of the 250 plots of real estate available across the stunning estate.
Beyond the exclusive fairways and luxurious homes, Cabot Saint Lucia is a holistic wellness and leisure destination first and foremost – designed to be a serene escape from the fast-paced world we so often inhabit. Residents and their guests can indulge in a full suite of on-site luxury amenities, from rejuvenating spa treatments to culinary experiences and nature trails. There’s also access to a private beach club with a range of watersports activities, alongside concierge services for even the smallest of fine details. It’s a lifestyle curated for those who appreciate laidback luxury, a sense of community, and a relaxed yet elegant approach.
The island of Saint Lucia is one of the most alluring and biodiverse destinations in the Caribbean, typified by the striking allure of its signature green peaks, known as the Pitons, that neighbour the estate. The island's lush rainforests, volcanic beaches, and vibrant coral reefs create a tapestry of flora and fauna, ensuring it is a haven for nature enthusiasts and adventurers alike.
From its position on the northern tip of the island, Cabot Saint Lucia is ideally situated to soak up the very best the island has to offer – whether that’s seeking out hidden waterfalls in the rainforest or diving into crystal clear waters to snorkel with the local marine life.
However, in spite of the natural wonders that Saint Lucia has to offer, it may prove difficult to tear oneself away from the luxurious confines of the Cabot Saint Lucia property. With plans to develop a state-of-the-art clubhouse – including two restaurants, a cocktail bar, theatre and games rooms, member lockers and lounge and a golf shop – and further expansion to the residential offerings currently ongoing, the property is poised to become a premier private club community that offers something for almost every age and calibre of guest.
It’s no exaggeration to say that Cabot Saint Lucia presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be a part of a truly unique residential community. Whether you’re a golfer dreaming of walking the fairways, a family looking for a special new vacation home, or a shrewd investor seeking extraordinary real estate opportunities, Cabot Saint Lucia is a fantasy come to life.
