Stretching across the idyllic Santa Martha Bay in the picturesque and unspoiled western region of Curaçao, the Bay Estates Peninsula presents a rare investment opportunity of exceptional scale and potential. Situated between the San Nicolas and Groot Santa Martha estates, this impressive peninsula is prominently visible from the water, rising as a natural landmark within the enchanting bay.


The location harmoniously combines tranquility, space, and breathtaking natural beauty with strategic development potential. The property is designated for both touristic and permanent residential development and holds the required building permits. In addition, non-binding development plans are available, enabling investors and developers to build upon a solid foundation for a high-end resort, an exclusive villa community, branded residences, or a mixed-use waterfront development of international distinction.


A private entrance from the main road leads via an impressive access road of more than 600 meters, ascending a 39-meter hill. This distinguished approach enhances the sense of arrival and privacy before unfolding onto the expansive plateau overlooking the water. On both sides of the peninsula lie shallow waters, historically used as salt pans, contributing to the site’s authentic character and offering additional possibilities within a comprehensive master plan.


With a natural elevation of over 18 meters, the plateau serves as a spectacular vantage point over Santa Martha Bay. Panoramic views extend across the surrounding estates, where rolling green hills rise above 80 meters, creating a dynamic interplay between land and sea. The combination of elevation, waterfront positioning, and open vistas makes this site exceptionally suited for an iconic and future-forward development.


From a maritime perspective, the location offers equally compelling opportunities. The entrance to the bay measures approximately 35 meters in width, with an average water depth of 3 meters and a maximum depth of 5 meters, allowing for the potential realization of a boutique marina or exclusive docking facilities. Curaçao’s strategic position outside the hurricane belt, combined with stable international air connections and attractive fiscal incentives for (touristic) real estate development, further strengthens the investment profile.


The San Nicolas estate comprises the entire peninsula and is also offered as a whole, providing flexibility for diverse development strategies and investment structures.



An extraordinary opportunity to create a landmark development in one of Curaçao’s most authentic and untouched locations. For further information regarding this unique investment opportunity, we invite you to contact our office.
