PRIVATE ISLAND

Area and Dimensions

The surface area of Quatre Isle is approximately 376 acres. The length of the island is approximately 3 km (1.86miles) and varies in width between 250 m to 975 m. The coastal length is approximately 9.85 km (6.12 miles)allowing for a great number of properties to have direct coastal frontage. The highest point is approximately 146 km (479 ft) above mean sea level.

Air & Sea Access

St.Vincent currently does not have an international Airport, although plans are in place for a new airport to be built this year, whilst the principal in transit airport is Barbados with connecting flights to Bequia (J F Mitchell Airport). The proximity of this airport to Quatre Isle is a major advantage, as it will provide easy access.The jetty in the village of Paget Farm, Bequia offers easy access to Quatre Isle. It will be restored and used as the main point from which Quatre Isle will be serviced, taking only 20 minutes by boat in sheltered waters to access the island.

Island History and Future Potential

Isle a Quatre has been owned by the Mitchell family for over 100 years. Isle a Quatre is currently a Marine reserve, and in April 2007 a 100 million US Quatre Isle Resort Deal was signed. The Resort was planned to comprise fifty luxury Villas, as a multi-facility resort, to contain; Marina and Sporting facilities, a Boutique hotel and a first class restaurant. This plan is just one example of the huge amount of potential that Isle a Quatre holds for a buyer.

This stunning island would make for a fantastic investment, as it seems to have it all – elevated hillsides for stunning views, pristine white sandy private beaches, and expansive spaces in which to make some exceptional developments. See concept images in the gallery above.

Tax Holiday, Incentives & Exemptions

Following the successful Mustique and Canouan models, an Act of Parliament provides for substantial and compelling arrangements – a 20 year tax holiday, incentives, exemptions and residency for the purchaser, company and investors. Conditions include the establishment of a high-quality private island environment with a boutique hotel, villas and infrastructure. In preparation for the sale, a holding company with limited liability has been set up, Quatre Isle Resort Ltd. It has never traded and has no liabilities. With the legal framework in place, the greater part of the island is offered for sale for the creation of a sustainable and successful private island resort.
