Do you remember for not so long ago we were talking about the fact that we miss our beloved Mediterranean a little? The ambiance, the people, the colors and artistic patterns and the stylish riviera atmosphere will for ever be deep in our hearts no matter where in the world we decide to steer our boat. And no matter what adventures we have laid in front of us, the Mediterranean parts of the world will always be home to us. So when we got to hear about Porto Cupecoy, a Mediterranean village built in the Caribbean, we couldn't resist but visiting it.
Porto Cupecoy is just that, a stylish European village, built in the middle of a tropical island, just a few minutes walk from the beachside, the warm turquoise ocean is practically just around the corner. The village offers everything a weekend visitor, a residence or a vacation traveler could wish for. 184 luxurious condos in size of one to four bedrooms are scattered around the area, a full-service marina is right in the heart of the village, there is a gym and a tennis quart, a European spa, the plaza with its many restaurants, bistros, bars and boutiques are right where you need them and the gourmet food market with the perfect selection of fresh produce, wine and imported goods is about 2 minutes walk from your own kitchen. All nestled in an absolutely stunning cove of the Simpson Bay Lagoon, perfectly accessible by boat (leave your boat outside in the anchorage if you prefer) or by plane, with the runway just a few minutes walk from the Porto Cupecoy village.
We were truly astonished by the perfection in details and the feeling they managed to create with the oh so familiar Mediterranean flair and our three days and two nights swept away way too fast. The condo we stayed in, and the others we had the chance to visit, were all designed to perfection with either a very traditional style or with brilliant European modernist features.
There are possibilities to either buy your own real estate within the village or rent a condo for months or per night. I must say that the prices for a weekend or a vacation stay is very competitive when compared with hotels in the same category. Nothing beats this way of vacationing where everything is close on hand and instead of staying in a tight hotel room, you have a whole home to your disposal. Comfortable, accessible and extraordinary chic within reach of everything you could be wishing for. And the best of two worlds are combined in one village.
Thank you Porto Cupecoy for having us and making us for a moment feeling like we were back to out beloved home across the ocean. /T&A
