Baliceaux: uninhabited auction gem in the azure sea

On bad terms with the neighbors? Perhaps purchasing a private island is worth considering. This ''Auction pearl'' is located in the azure blue sea of ​​the Caribbean. An island that is perfect for snorkeling, swimming, sailing or diving and is ready for a complete transformation...

The 352 hectare oasis known as Baliceaux is located between St. Vincent and Grenada in the so-called Grenadines archipelago. Translated into French, the name means 'trinket'. Now this name is most likely not derived from the price tag, as the island is currently for sale for more than € 25 million. 

The island is currently uninhabited and contains no structures whatsoever. According to Christie's, the arrival of Argyle Airport in Saint Vincent will make tourism in the Caribbean worth approximately €44 billion. And ready for further economic growth. The auction house calls the sale an exceptional opportunity for someone looking for the ultimate lease of a private island, for a family home or for a developer who would like to build a boutique hotel. In other words, Baliceaux is ready for a complete transformation. 

Celebrities' favorite base

Although Baliceaux is very remote, the distance to the picturesque shores of Bequia and Mustique is relatively short. In addition, Mustique is a popular holiday destination of the British royal family and many celebrities. During the construction of your dream resort, you will not be short of a suitable place to stay.   

The island dates back to the fifteenth century when it was discovered by Spanish conquistadors. During the Caribbean Wars Baliceaux's highest viewpoint, called Gun Hill, served as a lookout post for soldiers. However, this post can now serve perfectly as a vantage point for the sunset. Perhaps the perfect place for your new one sky lounge...
