Luxury Real Estate

By Matthew Woon

A slice of the tropical paradise which inspired James A Michener’s iconic Tales of the South Pacific is up for grabs with Vanuatu’s groundbreaking luxury development, the Lapita Plantation.

The vision of plantation owners Matthew Woon and his mother Sheryn von Schwerin, Lapita is an ecologically sustainable lifestyle development with a French colonial theme. Set on 328 hectares of land and fringed by 6 kilometres of coastline, the five-stage luxury lifestyle resort development called Lapita Plantation will feature 205 plantation villas, two luxury resort complexes, a large outdoor pool, restaurants, cocktail bar, Balinese-style day spa, golf practice range, specialty shops, and facilities for scuba diving, horse riding, kayaking and sailing.

In order to promote ecologically sustainable development of the site, land and villa allotments will be offered strictly as limited “staged” or “precinct” releases over the next 5 to 7 years. Each precinct will be identified by landscaping designed to create individuality and ensure harmony with the local environment and architectural features, and positioned to take full advantage of their natural surroundings and magnificent water views. Crushed coral pathways for pedestrians, private buggies and bicycles mean that no villa is more than 10 minutes from one of the resort centers.

The high-vaulted ceilings and wide, shaded wraparound verandas define the interior space while inviting spectacular water and distant mountain views into the heart of each residence.

High-speed internet, voiceover IP and satellite television will also be available in each villa, enabling busy professionals to take a much-needed break in one of the world’s most idyllic tropical locations while still keeping a hand on the pulse of their business. At Lapita, you get the best of both worlds – a tropical retreat just a mouse click away from the real-time outside world.

Tastefully selected interior furnishing packages will be available to add the finishing touch to these superb luxury villas offering the ultimate in resort style living in superb tropical surrounds.
