The smaller one is only 900 sq ft, 260 sq ft less than a Colony Patio Villa and twice the price!

The cost of doing biz on a resort island were the vast majority of building materials must be imported.

Seems to be spreading far and wide!!

Oh, I like that one, “Le Village-Canal du Midi”. Wonder if anyone wants to do a home exchange for Florida!

The business model appears to have been taken from our Villages, very similar in providing entertainment etc. They will probably do very well, the French have changed the law and this is the only development now allowed on this Canal!

Wouldn't a development like this be more appealing to Europeans than coming all the way to Florida?

On second thoughts we might have to take this off the vacation list, my other half just came in and looked at the site and told me it's for an alternative lifestyle, not ours! Maybe I should do that eye test after all!

There are 2. The "rainbow" village. And then the villages type village. Lots of advertising for it here in the uk. Husband says he would not want to buy in France we can visit northern France from where we live, and do so quite often

*Thought you might be interested in this.**My friend*has a contact at Southern Lifestyles who told her that all of the furniture inventory in their stores was scheduled to be shipped to Barbados.**She did some research, and came up with the website. *If you look at the website for*“the villages at Coverley” you will see a lot of similarity to the Villages with things like town squares, nightly entertainment, line dancing on the square, golf carts, etc.* Susan actually called the number for the sales office and they answered the phone*“Good morning, it is a beautiful day in the Villages”, which certainly makes it look like this is the next venture by the Morse family.

Go to You Tube and search for "Villages at Coverly". There are videos there for it. Evidently, 300 homes have already been sold and it started back in 2011 according the Barbados Newspaper articles.

I wonder if they are offering a Lifestyle Preview. Might be a great vacation.
