A taste of what to expect

Each day will be shaped closer to the time — tailored to Jacomien and the people around her.
No two days will be the same. Here's a sense of what awaits.

Morning

You may decide to rise with the sun, the island still quiet, and join a gentle yoga session on the rooftop before enjoying breakfast on the beach as morning light catches the water — unhurried and peaceful. Later, you may choose the wind in your hair as you race a Hobie Cat around the island in a friendly competition.

Afternoon

After a leisurely lunch on Turtle Beach with cold drinks in hand and warm sand underfoot, you may choose an afternoon out on the water — snorkeling a coral reef, kayaking a hidden cove, or learning to kitesurf with a patient instructor. Or perhaps you'll find yourself called to the spa, a hammock, or a guided walk to meet the island's lemurs, flamingos, and giant tortoises. Time moves differently on the island — afternoons have a habit of vanishing entirely, and before you know it someone has handed you a rum cocktail and the sun is on its way down.

Evening

Dinner could be a relaxed, family-style affair with live music, rum cocktails, and a stunning sunset, or a James Bond themed evening — guests dressed to the nines, martini glasses lining the bar, roulette wheels spinning, the Great House lit up and transformed. Some nights will quietly simmer into the small hours, and others will leave you wondering how it got to 2am.
