Construction Photos - Watch Flamingo Nest Resort Come to Life!!!

After the site was carefully cleared, water and electric utilities were installed and foundations were constructed for The Nest and bungalows. 192 piers of concrete block, each measuring 6 feet tall, were laid by hand for the project.

Second bungalow to the south of The Nest under construction. Note solid coral base that foundation is attached to, depth of foundation columns and size - four adult men are working comfortably inside the bungalow.
Picture taken from atop a casciarella (pine) tree on the site's beach of the two bungalows to the north of The Nest and foundation structures for several other bungalows. Note the pristine green horizon in back of the site looking inland...we are truly the first development on the island - perfect for people looking to get away from it all.
Picture taken from the rear of The Nest looking directly west out over the water. When guests walk into The Nest from the road, they will be able to look straight through The Nest's dining room, bar and screened-in porch and see the amazing blue waters. What a great first impression!

Picture taken from atop the floor deck of The Nest looking down into the water over the beach dune. The white sandy beach lies below. This is the view guests will have when seated on the front porch looking toward the northwest. South Florida is 600 miles away in this direction. The view will improve when the beach and grounds are restored with lush tropical landscaping.
Picture of the southern most portion of Flamingo Nest Resort's beach looking toward the south and west. Matthew Town is 2 miles to the south and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba is 42 miles to the southwest across the water. (The dark areas in the water are coral reef!)
Remote beaches like this are found all around the island. This beach is located in Man O' War Bay - about a 10 minute boat ride north of the resort. Guests will be able to rent boats and discover beaches like this to enjoy their take-away picnic lunches and relax in solitude.
