By Katherine Verano in Real Estate

It’s cause for celebration here at Christophe Harbour as we welcome a new Windswept Residence Club villa to the Sandy Bank Bay landscape. The newly-constructed villa is fully furnished and completely outfitted with plush essentials. Construction, which began in 2013, was led by Bennett Hofford Caribbean Construction.

By Katherine Verano in Community, Golf, Hotel, Marina, Real Estate, St. Kitts, Yachting

All around the peninsula, you can see the difference. Locals and longtime visitors can sense a change in the tradewinds.

Christophe Harbour is rapidly taking shape on St. Kitts, particularly noticeable in the past year since the Sugar Industry Diversity Foundation (SIDF) and the Darby Family Investment Group established their partnership.

Speedier, soulful progress can be seen at every curve, hillside and beach. SALT Plage is now open on Whitehouse Bay serving cool drinks and ceviche by the sea—the bar’s open-air design incorporates local artifacts from the island’s historic sugar and salt industries.

Dredging work and the first phase of the Marina is now proceeding on schedule, and is expected...
