Drink in the view from The Cliffs Penthouse Suite, Oil Nut Bay in the beautiful British Virgin Islands.
Overlooking the beautiful Caribbean Sea with unobstructed panoramic views, the scene from The Cliffs’ Penthouse Suite at Oil Nut Bay at Virgin Gorda in The British Virgin Islands is little short of heavenly.
Perched on the rocky southwest cliffs of Oil Nut Bay, the penthouse is at the highest point of the development and with sliding, floor to ceiling windows one can sit and soak in the dramatic vista from early morning sunrise to rosy sunset. From a wraparound outdoor terrace steps from the infinity pool this is the place to ponder, wonder, relax or simply contemplate a day in the BVI sun or potter around the 1334 square foot penthouse with décor styled by Fendi Casa.
The property is owned by Oil Nut Bay developer David V. Johnson of Victor International, who says ‘The vision behind Oil Nut was to create a multi-generational family community unparalleled in the Caribbean with world-class amenities and home sites all while integrated in harmony with nature. 50% of the property is dedicated to open space. Combine that with the nearby yacht club and mega yacht marina so yachts can have a home base for Caribbean cruising.’
From the penthouse, one can gaze out to sea beyond The Oil Nut Bay Beach Club - the social centre for Oil Nut Bay. It features three pools with a swim up bar, al-fresco dining and pizza bar. The Wellness Centre is located behind Oil Nut Bay Beach Club and has a gym and rooms for Pilates and Yoga. The Nut House and Nature Centre hosts a wide range of programming for all ages and is geared toward environmental learning while having fun.
‘We have 8 different neighbourhoods that have been designed to complement our homeowners’ lifestyle which allows each owner to create a personal paradise at Oil Nut Bay. Additionally, the BVI and Oil Nut Bay offer a predictable 90 day or less purchasing approval process for a landholder license ‘adds David V. Johnson.
The community focuses on nature, wellness and family so it appeals to multi-generational families. The Nut House and Nature Centre for kids of all ages, visiting naturalists and marine biologist, as well as the on-site activities provide the ultimate in private-island living even for children or grandchildren. Each home has the ability to participate exclusively through the Oil Nut Bay rental management program to complement their usage.
But back in the penthouse, all oozes calm and elegance Furnished by FENDI Casa, the penthouse suite offers an expanded interior and exterior floor plan featuring signature FENDI Casa décor and furnishings including: Premiere and Prestige three-seater sofas in champagne with “Villa Borghese” embroideries, intricate FENDI Casa Murano Via Lattea chandelier in Porcellana Sand Pryncess king size bed paired with the Canova bedside table and chest of drawers together in ivory. The outdoor lounge incorporates the Deauville day bed in natural, the Amore three-seater sofa in ivory and the Sistina chair in white.
‘We have set the bar for all residential communities in the Caribbean and there is no community like Oil Nut Bay. We have built our community in ecological harmony with the land and created superior amenities, services, and exceptional homesites with no debt. The lifestyle of Oil Nut Bay will and continues to exceed our homeowners’ expectations’ David V. Johnson says, adding ‘I’ve built 43 communities including Bay Harbour, the largest reclamation project in 1995 and still one of the largest in the US. I currently call the BVI home and my lifelong goal is to build the best with the best team. Victor International has created more than 40 developments with communities in the both the BVI and the USA.’
But this particular penthouse suite epitomises life at its best in the Caribbean. In a setting of natural beauty, constructed in harmony with nature, and thoughtfully integrated and designed, this is a view to die for in a position second to none.
