Anguilla, British West Indies (PRWEB) April 16, 2008 -- An excited group of invited guests was on hand in Anguilla the first weekend in April to greet the golfing legend Jack Nicklaus. Nicklaus arrived on the morning of Saturday, April 5th to kick-off the official Groundbreaking for his Signature Course at Fairmont Anguilla. Just four weeks away from its much-anticipated initial release of property, this luxury island resort community will also be home to an exclusive Jack Nicklaus Golf Club--one of only 25 in the world.
Jack Nicklaus at Fairmont Anguilla
Nicklaus was greeted by roughly 100 invited guests that included local dignitaries and future homeowners at Fairmont Anguilla. After a brief lunch at Straw Hat restaurant, Nicklaus spent time discussing the routing for his course that will unfold naturally along a magnificent stretch of shoreline, affording spectacular views of St. Maarten. "Anguilla is an exclusive island," Nicklaus says, "and the terrific piece of property we have to work with allows us to create a number of holes that play to or along the ocean--with views of the water from every hole. I think this will be one of the more impressive courses in the world and that's why I've picked Anguilla as a site for a Jack Nicklaus Golf Club."
The Honourable Victor Banks, Anguilla's Minister of Finance & Tourism, was also in attendance and is very excited about the fact that two iconic brands are coming together at Fairmont Anguilla. "Anguilla is unlike any other place in the Caribbean," he says. "We have the best beaches in the world and some of the finest restaurants in the West Indies. I am very pleased that Fairmont Hotels & Resorts and Jack Nicklaus are partnering with the Lake and Kentish families on this incredible piece of property."
Encompassing 400 acres--including two miles of unspoiled oceanfront--Fairmont Anguilla is announcing the upcoming release of 35 Exclusive Founders Packages on the weekend of May 9-11, 2008.
