Prime Minister Gaston Browne has announced an ambitious eco-tourism initiative for Christian Valley, Antigua, aimed at blending sustainable development with the preservation of the region’s natural beauty. The project, revealed during an episode of the Browne and Browne Show, will feature solar-powered cottages and an eco-lodge designed to minimize environmental impact. Browne emphasized the valley’s scenic allure, urging citizens to explore its lush greenery. The eco-lodge will comprise 30 to 40 off-grid cabins, offering approximately 80 rooms, and will include amenities such as a pool, restaurant, and other supporting facilities. The Prime Minister highlighted the project’s self-sustainability, with cabins powered by solar energy and equipped with independent water systems. Additionally, residents will have the opportunity to invest in individual cottage units, fostering community involvement. While no specific timeline for construction was provided, Browne confirmed that concept development is in progress, with officials collaborating with land-use planners to ensure the project aligns with environmental preservation goals.
