Five-Star Luxury Resort

 

 



The $200 million, 138 suite Palmera de Cabarete Resort and Spa, opening in 2011, will be bringing five star luxury to this action-packed capital of world-class kite boarding, surfing, laser sailing, mountain biking, hiking and canyoning. Its 19.5 eco-friendly landscaped acres include 1000 feet of private shoreline, part of one of the largest expanses of uninterrupted beach in the Caribbean.

The announcement was made by Darren Law, President and Chief Executive Officer of NID Holdings LLC, developers of Palmera de Cabarete. “We are convinced that Cabarete will be the next Caribbean hot destination. We are pleased that other luxury brands like Nikki Beach have announced they will also be joining us as neighbors,” said Law who enjoys a pedigree of luxury hotel brands from Four Seasons and The Regent Palms to Conrad Hotels.

The quality of appointments and finishes in this condo resort will meet the standards that are expected for luxury excellence with 10-foot high ceilings, floor to ceiling window walls that seamlessly bring the outdoors in, semi private elevators to suites, marble floors inside and out, and Wolf and Subzero appliances. Penthouses will feature infinity edge plunge pools, summer kitchens and a cabana bathroom with shower.

Pick of the Month
Caribou Club at Aspen, Colorado

The New York Post termed the highbrow Caribou Club the best private club in America. The key word here is private, because if you want to gain access you need a current member to sponsor you. But it is a small price to pay for a few nights of high society and five-star cuisine. Chat with a renowned sommelier and sample wines from a cellar containing more than 5000 selections from around the world. Or, relax with a cigar in an overstuffed chair by the roaring fireplace in the Great Room. After dinner, things get moving on the disco dance floor.

The Caribou Club offers four types of memberships to its distinguished guests.

Lifetime Membership. This allows a couple memberships for life and costs $20,000 USD.
Individual Membership. This is a membership for two that costs $3,000 USD for the first year, and $2,000 USD for the succeeding year.
Corporate/Family Membership. This is for five (5) corporate/family cards, which are fully transferable within your corporation or family. This card must be presented upon entrance to the Club. The cost is $5,000 USD for 5 cards for a one-year period.
Temporary Membership. This is a one-week only membership. The cost is $500 USD per couple. During the Holidays and President’s weekend the cost is $1,500 USD for one week, or $2,000 USD for up to two weeks. Temporary memberships are limited throughout the year.

The Caribou Club is located at 411 East Hopkins Avenue, Aspen, CO 81611
