"Ideally situated on a private 18-acre peninsula overlooking Marigot Bay and Grand Cul-de-Sac . . .." It sounds like the Guanahani owns 18 acres of land on this peninsula.

well they might, but they don't own the beach, a perennial discussion it seems. there is walking access to the beach via Anse Maréchal and I believe there was once a photo of that posted on this forum.
 
or, you can take this path to a little rock boat landing projecting into l'anse de Marigot. maybe belonged to a private residence before the hotel???

Thinking Dave's Mom is on it !

And, our dear friends who we actually met on the island in 2015, have stayed there for many years! They can’t wait for Le G to reopen. They, too, have contacted Rosewood to make a reservation but to no avail.
