Residences will include single-story estates, villas and cottage-style Sunday homes ranging from three to five bedrooms, with custom options available. Fifty of these residences are strategically located along the edge of the 106-acre property, backing up to waterside views of Baron’s Creek and rolling hills.

The new properties will also include five food and beverage outlets. An 11,000-square-foot spa and fitness center, two resort-style pools, outdoor courtyards, specialty programming, sports courts and a kids’ club. About 6,000 square feet of indoor meeting space and a 4,000-square-foot event barn are available to host any event, too.

By-the-cabin Yachting Redefines the Cruise Experience

I wish this day could last forever!” my windswept 9-year-old exclaimed, his voice soaring over the Mediterranean. He gripped the helm of a Bali 4.6 sailing catamaran off the coast of Marseille, his sun- bleached hair whipping in the salty breeze. The scent of the sea mingled with the aroma of warm baguettes drifting from the Côte d’Azur shoreline. Our captain, a seasoned sailor, subtly adjusted course, letting my son feel the exhilarating pull of the wind against the sails. As the waves lapped against the hull, I realized this was no ordinary vacation — this was freedom, unfiltered.
