Lolita is a remarkable new architectural achievement: a 14,500-square-foot modern villa on a four-acre site chosen for its breathtaking view of the deep blue Caribbean Sea! In textures of rich mahogany, Italian Travertine and handsome granite, Lolita was designed by noted Chicago architect Tom Reed (see also Silent Waters and Destiny villas in this collection).

A dramatic Great Room opens to the massive marble pool terrace, outside dining area and bar ~ all of which share the vast ocean view. The air-conditioned study has a 45” plasma TV and library of books and movies. Inside and outside dining areas seat as many as 14 guests. Notable at Lolita is the granite and stainless steel kitchen manned by talented Chef Glen. Mealtimes at Lolita are memorable.

Child friendly, Lolita’s heated pool includes a 24-inch-deep section for youngsters. A second heated pool for children is across the terrace.

The Tryall Club

A significant amenity for guests in this villa is membership at the excellent Tryall Club.  On 2,200 acres, Tryall’s golf course is among the most beautiful in the world.  Its 18 hillside and seaside fairways have been home to the Johnnie Walker, Mazda and other PGA championship events.  The resident pro offers workshops and private lessons.   The Tryall tennis club features nine Nova Cushion courts, some lit for night play, with world-class pro’s on call.  All whites required. 

The beach is well planned for parents and children. Have lunch at the beach bar.  Work out in the well-equipped gym.  Jog the marked trails. Snorkeling, kayaking, hobie cat and sunfish are complimentary.  Glass bottom boats, charter fishing, a boat to the reef and any captained craft attract various fees.  Enjoy the week’s events, including the Monday Night Manager’s Cocktail Party and the Wednesday and Friday night beach parties (Friday Seafood Night on the Beach Buffet is excellent).

On the hill, enjoy the historic Great House for afternoon tea and a magnificent view from the terrace.  Shop at the commissary and boutique, meet for happy hour at the bar, and browse a wealth of Jamaican, Haitian and Cuban works and souvenirs in the Gallery of West Indian Art.  And don’t miss the massive Tryall pool!
