The ultimate trophy home currently on the market in the Caribbean is Palazzate – Barbados’ US$125 million luxury beachfront mansion. However, for ultra high net worth individuals who don’t want to invest that much money into one property, but still wants a luxury home of status in the Caribbean full of amenities — they should consider purchasing an extension of The Sanctuary, a private beachfront resort in the exclusive Parrot Cay area of the Turks and Caicos Islands.

Owned by acclaimed fashion designer Donna Karan, the seven acres beachfront resort compound is currently on the market for US$39million with Christie’s International Real Estate. Included in the sale are two identical four-bedroom villa estates designed by Cheong Yew Kuan, a world-renowned Singapore architect, and completed with New York’s Bonetti/Kozerski Studio.

Each of the villas designed to achieve balance, tranquility and “the restoration of wellness” have meticulously crafted interiors with exotic features such as “cedar and coral stone walls, European walnut floors, lightly filled raw travertine baths, teak furniture and eclectic works of art from Bali to Africa.” Plus each has a second-floor master bedroom that has stunning ocean views, three en-suite bedrooms, and an infinity pool.
