The Great House

Sleeps up to 16

Featured as part of CV Travel's Private Collection.

This grand beachfront villa sits amongst attractive gardens behind 300 feet of prime West Coast beach, in a very private and exclusive setting. It has a wonderful relaxed atmosphere, extensive leisure facilities and is perfect for families and special gatherings.

Set in an oasis of one and a half acres of tropical gardens, this traditional style plantation house with its coral stone walls, verandahs and shuttered windows, occupies a prime beachfront location with wonderful views over Mullins Bay. The two storey main house, with its Palladian portico, offers elegant living areas and four bedrooms, whilst the remaining bedrooms are in four chattel style cottages in the grounds. The furnishings and décor are very much in keeping with the elegant style of the property and include antiques and modern pieces. The attentive staff will make sure that every imaginable comfort is on offer and the owner’s love of watersports is reflected in the extensive range available. This is truly a very special house.

Your every need is catered for at The Great House by the team of 16 full-time staff.

In the kitchen the Executive Chef, Head Chef, Chef and Kitchen Assistant have the expertise to create and prepare menus for all tastes, ages and nutritional requirements.

The three highly-trained Butlers make sure you lack for nothing. Amongst their many duties, they will set up dining areas in various areas of the house and garden, accompany you on picnics, keep you supplied with cold towels throughout the day, serve afternoon tea in the beachside Gazebo, canapés on the Boardwalk and drinks in the bar. Recent training has raised their cocktail repertoire to international standards.

The house and four chattels are the domain of our three Housekeepers and two Laundry staff. They provide a full evening turndown, high-quality seamstress service and ensure all guest suites are stocked with White Linen toiletries.

Two full-time gardeners tend the garden’s collection of choice tropical plants gently shaded by the mature coconut palms. They also keep the beach and Boardwalk fresh and clean. At night, two Security Guards patrol the grounds.

‘Sea Breeze’, our 30’ Grady White motorboat, is manned by our Boatman who is on hand during the day to provide the full range of watersports and transport to destinations on the island.

In addition to this in-house expertise, we have a portfolio of professionals we call upon to provide individual services including masseuses, beauty therapists, personal trainers and nannies.

Guest Book

"Swimming in the pool, sailing the Laser, kayaking, snorkelling and water skiing are all a routine part of a holiday in the Great House. So is cruising in the boat for a picnic at a remote beach, a fishing expedition or to shop and eat lunch in one of the island’s owns. Gym and tennis facilities are available at nearby Port St Charles. When in more leisurely mood, the tropical gardens and beach are open invitations to take a stroll. You could play backgammon, cards or chess in one of the gazebos by the beach. Or you could simply settle down indoors to enjoy a DVD.

For your evenings, we are also happy to organise more formal entertainment drawing on the pick of the island’s considerable talent. Whether you’d like to listen to a singer during dinner, watch a floor show, or dance the night away to a steel band, we can take care of all the arrangements."
