According to the terms of the development agreement, the Government of the Virgin Islands approved the construction and operation of a new five-star hotel of 100 hotel units, plus additional hotel spa suites, hotel villas, townhouses and residential villas for sale with a luxury spa and related facilities including restaurants, bars, swimming pools, gift shops and boutiques at Nail Bay plus a private jetty and ten moorings.

This historic 148 acre former sugar plantation below Gorda Peak with almost a mile of waterfront overlooking Sir Francis Drake Channel on the north western shore of Virgin Gorda has been in the process of being developed into a luxury villa resort with over $42 million invested in villas to date. Both Nail Bay and Mooney Bay are managed by Virgin Gorda Management Company Limited. For more information on Nail Bay, visit www.nailbay.com
