Eleuthera Island, The Bahamas -- Boasting one of the largest marinas in the Out Islands of The Bahamas, the new $85 million Cape Eleuthera Resort & Yacht Club is situated on a private 4,500-acre peninsula on Eleuthera Island and features two-bedroom townhome resort accommodations lining the marina and future beachfront lots and homes for real estate opportunists. Located less than 220 miles off the east coast of Florida, The Cape Eleuthera resort and real estate project is being developed by the DeVos family who formerly owned Peter Island in the British Virgin Islands and is an ideal setting for world-renowned sport fishing, boating or simply relaxing on secluded beaches.

"Cape Eleuthera is not for everyone," said David Green, managing director. "It will never be a Las Vegas style resort transplanted in the Caribbean, but our guests are able to enjoy an authentic, Bahamian Out Island experience and that is what makes us so appealing." Green also notes that due to the immense land size, no other resorts or developments on the island will encroach upon the Cape Eleuthera development, ensuring guests always have a natural environment to explore.

The largest world-class marina in the Out Islands, the Cape Eleuthera Yacht Club boasts the longest Mega Yacht Dock on Eleuthera at more than 450 feet and features a wide flushing channel to ensure a gin-clear marina basin and protection against surge. The marina also accommodates vessels larger than 200 feet with depths up to 35 feet and currently holds 55 slips with a potential capacity of up to 200.

Twenty-six beachfront lots are the future site of ocean front beach villas and private estate homes for those looking to own, and real estate inquiries are now being accepted. Vacationers stay along the marina in two-bedroom townhomes blending the authentic Caribbean way of life with contemporary amenities and a design that mirrors the architectural details found on many of the original island homes. Each townhome features stainless steel GE Profile appliances, granite counter tops and tiled floors. Complete with spacious living areas, luxurious four-poster beds, fully appointed kitchens and washer and dryer, the townhomes have all the luxuries of being at home with the benefits of staying at a resort. Private porches and balconies command views of the marina and visitors take in understated elegance, sensible luxury and the natural beauty of Eleuthera.

Fishing, diving, kayaking and snorkeling are among the many adventures of a Cape Eleuthera guest. Fishermen find a plethora of trophy-size game fish -- everything from dolphin, tuna, sailfish, wahoo, and marlin -- off the coast of south Eleuthera, and find themselves in one of the world's best location for bone fishing. Guests set off by boat or kayak to explore the Schooner Cays - four small islands that appear to be floating in the sky. Caribbean and Bahamas diving icon and world scuba diving record holder, Neal Watson, is responsible for the diving adventures at Cape Eleuthera and can recommend the best dives for every level of diver. Divers discover several dive sites among miles of underwater walls, caves and caverns in the resort's neighboring cays, as well as abundant sea life and enchanting shipwrecks.

While on land, guests and homeowners enjoy the freedom to explore the many trails and hidden coves of Cape Eleuthera by golf cart, bicycle or on foot, soaking in the warm Bahamian sun on the sands of Sunset or Sunrise Beach and jumping off of High Rock cliff into the warm waters of south Eleuthera. Hiking trails, fitness trails and water sport rentals are all available for guest use as well.

Cape Eleuthera Resort & Yacht Club is a new, full service resort and real estate development gracing Eleuthera Island. Located on a 4,500-acre peninsula, Cape Eleuthera offers 16 miles of waterfront property. With activities ranging from deep sea fishing and exploring uninhabited islands to soaking in the sun on secluded private beaches and kayaking the turquoise waters, Cape Eleuthera has an activity for every traveler. Cape Eleuthera's convenient location is ideal for a weekend island getaway, yet the Technicolor waters and expansive beaches tempt guests to stay a lifetime.
