Eye on Cuba ... from the Brac

Tania Drebenstedt
In recent years, retired professionals havebeen attracted to Cayman Brac, not just because of an easy accessto North America, but also for its low crime rate, up-to-dateamenities, and modern infrastructure.
But for today's investor considering Cayman Brac, this unfamiliarterritory is looking to further develop as a quality escape, apart-time resident destination, a pristine, qualtity of life withineasy reach of a repertoire of a vibrant and exciting night lifeacross the sea on nearby Cuba.
While the Brac offers a carefully designed Caribbean lifestylewithin a protected tropical paradise, one could search the worldto find the unique combination of seclusion and a busy night lifeonly 90 miles away.
All over the Caribbean and Florida one hears that all Caribbeanand Florida holiday destinations shall fall off the face of thisearth should CUBA "open up". What is meant by Cuba openingup? Are we not visiting Cuba from Cayman? Now even Cayman Airwaysoffers great deals to fly to Cuba. International investors flock"now" to Cuba. Opening up Cuba means ..if and when theirPolitical System changes to a "free" Society. We holdthe Cuban people in our hearts, not just because they are closeneighbers, but we know of a proud people, that hold their headup high even through enormous challenges.
However, today's investor also knows that a country under oppressiondoes not just "fall" back into a free society withoutscares from their previous oppression. The glitter of clubs andinternational shows provides a powerful draw to European and Canadiantourist, and one day to the American Market.
The incoming Brac developer / investor therefore wants to create"the best there is" on Cayman Brac.
Cayman Brac will become the open door to the most sought afterdestination
The awareness of the MOST exclusive way of life is already anticipatedand recognised by Caymanian and overseas Investors and developerswith a proven track record. All indicators point to acquisitionsof large parcels of land with plans to create a secure way oflife within this British territory, with a centuries-old commonlaw legal system, and political stability not be an exclusive
resident and resort community on the doorstep of Cuba.
Since the Cayman Islands are in a protected cocoon with priviledgedaccess to the European economic union, the Brac is also able tooffer the stability that is impossible to be created in Cuba,even if the Island will profit
one day from a privatised economy again.
The scars need to heal, and like other Countries that have beenreigned previously under Communist rule they are "only slowly"gearing toward a certain world wide confidence level.
With the Brac's sound infrastructure, a jet airport ready to accommedateall partying guests for a weekend in Cuba, a signature MarinaVillage, the persevering entrepreneur is able to announce : youwill be amazed what is in store for the most exclusive, "selective"way of life on the Brac.
The high quality of life, an assurance by Government of socialjustice, all this forms the selected security the part time residentand tourist is looking for...
A unique hideaway complete with "peace" a haven forthose special individuals seeking a residence far away from themaddening crowd.
The Brac will be internationally known, offering fabulous villasand resorts, with intimate sensitive hideway spa's an extraordinaryCaribbean retreat....yet only a short ride by airplane or yachtto a mixture of a night club elegance and refinement : lies ourclosest neighbour -- Cuba
The Brac offering exclusive protected luxury living and the fruitsof the new partying Cuba...after all the Brac is only just 90miles across the shimmering turquoise sea.
