Whittakers Offers Unique Concierge Services to Home Buyers
Luxury Developments Focus on Service to Attract Buyers
Pender Harbour, BC, August 9, 2007 – Whittakers home owners are being offered an unparalleled service opportunity with Rockwater Concierge, an optional resort concierge service operated out of Rockwater Secret Cove Resort. A means of differentiating itself in a hyper competitive real estate market, Rockwater Concierge is offering Whittakers home buyers a unique blend of elite hotel services, including property management, rental management, security and service checks, house cleaning, grocery, laundry, and catering services.
This optional enhancement, available only to Whittakers owners, is an unparalleled hotel-like concierge service born out of a unique partnership between a developer and a hotelier. Whittakers is being developed by Rockwater Properties, a partnership between hotelier, Kevin Toth, former GM of Fairmount Chateau Whistler, and developer Peter Ruben, chair of the AMC Group. Bringing his creativity and extensive hotelier experience into play, Kevin Toth, Rockwater Secret Cove GM, worked closely with Peter Ruben to develop the Whittakers Concierge offering as a means of enhancing the Whittakers lifestyle experience. According to Toth, “luxury is defined by service, and the Whittakers Concierge service has set a new standard for the Sunshine Coast.”
In addition to its concierge service amenities, Whittakers community members are provided with a deep-water marina slip for each home owner, creating a social gathering spot and offering direct access to the calm, meditative waters of Pender Harbour.
With 60% of its home sites sold, this exclusive and private water front community lined by old-growth forest is now selling its remaining peninsula properties, with finished homes ranging from $898,000 to $1,425,000.
Following an outer ridge of the shoreline to maximize the over 14 acres and 1000 feet of waterfront shoreline, each home site has approximately 50 feet of frontage and stunning views of Pender Harbour and the ocean. Each home at Whittakers is custom designed to fit the area’s unique topography and follow two architectural design styles, West Coast Arts and Crafts and a more modern West Coast Contemporary design.
Whittakers is located 30 minutes north of Sechelt in Pender Harbour, which is only 2.5 hours away from Vancouver (by car) and the Calgary airport (by plane). Whittakers can be reached via a 50 minute Ferry from North Vancouver to Langdale and 70 minutes to the Whittakers’ site, or by float plane, as regularly scheduled flights will fly from Vancouver to the Whittakers’ dock or to Rockwater Secret Cove.
