Unique Opportunity

Isle de Ronde is one of the largest private islands available for sale in the Grenadines, offering an extraordinary expanse of undeveloped land. With its varied topography, the island presents ideal locations for showcase villas perched along ridgelines or a boutique resort tucked beside calm beaches. The scale, privacy, and natural drama make this a one-of-a-kind investment opportunity for visionary buyers.

Development Potential

Untouched by human interference, Isle de Ronde’s marine world remains pure and prolific. The surrounding reefs teem with turtles, green morays, and large pelagic fish. Divers are rewarded with crystal-clear visibility often exceeding 100 feet, exploring coral-encrusted canyons and vertical drop-offs that plunge into deep blue “bottomless” walls. Hidden beneath the surface lies a quartz-lined cavern adorned with natural stalactites — a true geological wonder.

Anchorage and Exploration

While Chris Doyle’s Cruising Guide notes that anchorage can be slightly rolly, he also recommends the superb snorkeling. The island is often deserted, a haven for adventurers who find reward in its clear waters, powdery beach, and abundant birdlife, including graceful pelicans diving for their catch.

‘The Sisters’ — Guardians of the Approach

Approaching Isle de Ronde from the sea can appear daunting at first, as the rocky outcrops known as ‘The Sisters’ seem to close in. Yet on nearer approach, sailors discover a welcoming passage leading to calm anchorage, particularly on the north-northeast coast. It’s a dramatic and unforgettable arrival — the kind that reminds you why sailing in the Grenadines is considered among the world’s finest.

Access and Connections

With Grenada’s international airport just minutes away, Isle de Ronde is easily reached by private boat or charter. From there, inter-island ferries and flights connect to the wider Caribbean. Most agree, however, that the best way to arrive is under sail — the water clear as glass, the breeze steady and warm, and the island rising ahead like a dream untouched by time.
