Overview Amenities  
No detail has been spared in the airy and spacious two-story Carolina-style home that is Frenchmans Lookout. Originally an infamous pirates' lookout because of its commanding and sweeping views, its perch above Sir Francis Drake Channel is caressed by constant trade winds. The views are breathtaking and incomparable and have been called "the best in the Caribbean."

The Features

Two electronic security gates lead into this completely private luxury estate. Frenchmans Lookout's main level offers the elegantly furnished great room, a brand-new gourmet kitchen and grand dining room with banquet table and an air-conditioned queen bedroom/bathroom suite. On the upper level are 4 very large bedrooms and 3 tiled baths, plus a well-outfitted office. Every room on both levels (including all bathrooms) opens via double mahogany French doors onto the generous wraparound decks, showcasing a captivating parade of sail and power yachts passing by.

All of the five high-ceilinged, romantic bedrooms offer state-of-the-art air-conditioning but few guests find it necessary. The simple but sumptuous furnishings define classic elegance: terra cotta floors with woven seagrass mats, plush chairs and sofas, antiques and fine art. Just outside is the 50-foot freshwater pool with a shallow cove for children, surrounded by masonry patios and wood decks. Adjoining the pool is a gazebo and gas barbeque bordered by dramatic rock outcroppings and lush flowering gardens and specimen trees- the aromas of gardenia and jasmine floats through the breeze! The poolside gazebo has a complete inside bar including a sink, refrigerator and a top-of-the-line built-in gas barbeque. Lunch, dinner, or late nights will never be the same!
A state-of-the-art gym/recreation room and hot tub spa are located in the gardens. Its a 6 person hot tub spa with soothing jets and a drop-dead view -- over the top, but you deserve it


The estate's professionally trained staff is discreet and detail-oriented. A private chef is available for your holiday pleasures at an additional cost.

Spa Therapies: Appu and Monali are our exclusive Frenchmans Lookout spa therapists offering everything from massages and body wraps to reiki and yoga. Appu and Monali provide 10 hours of on-site spa therapies per booked week.

35-foot Motor Yacht: As part of your Frenchmans Lookout vacation Simon, our seasoned Captain, will take you out for 2 full days on the water. He tailors each day to suit you. Simon hails from England but has lived and sailed all over the world. In addition to being a first-class captain, he is also a marine naturalist and a world famous snorkel and dive master. Simon is happy to bring you to some of the best and most secluded snorkeling and dive spots in the Caribbean. His pleasant demeanor and knowledge of the area is unparalleled.

Breakfast by Gloria: Gloria Gairy, our long-term housekeeper, has just finished culinary training with one of America'ss most well-respected hotel chefs. Gloria prepares a healthy morning meal that is as tasty as it is satisfying. She uses only the freshest local ingredients and her cooking is sure to start your day on a pleasant note.
