The Estate boasts secret coves, breathtaking private beaches, tropical forests and a fabulous lagoon – which is part seawater and part fresh spring water and always warm. There is also a FieldSpa and two restaurants – Bizot Bar (beach bistro) and The Gazebo (fine dining). The choice of accommodation available at GoldenEye is varied and includes Fleming’s original villa with 5 bedrooms, one bedroom ocean front villa, nine Beach Villas, two Lagoon Villas, one & two bedroom Beach Huts and six Lagoon Cottages. All offer the GoldenEye signature claw foot bathtubs and outside garden showers, flat screen televisions with over 200 international channels, complimentary Wi-Fi, Logitech Squeezebox sound-system, stocked with a catalogue of Island Records-produced music (can download any of the guests’ favourite radio stations), the latest air conditioning technology. All villas, cottages, beach huts and suites have custom-designed furniture, bath and beauty products and Royal Hut’s fine handmade linens. Three Bedroom Ocean Front Villa StrangeWays is the name of this three-bedroom villa, located on a bluff on the top of a cliff with sweeping oceanfront views of the Caribbean Sea. Stone steps, descending from the lush, tropical garden lead to a private swimming patio with direct access into the lagoon. The villa itself consists of a small compound. One structure is a master bedroom with living room. Two additional structures have one bedroom each. Yet another houses the kitchen. You might think this design – so unique and so private – would explain this villa’s name. In fact, StrangeWays references the mystical influences always at play on this magical island Bedroom One has a King-size bed & En-Suite bathroom Bedroom Two has a Queen-size bed, En-Suite bathroom and Outdoor rain shower Bedroom Three has a Queen-size bed, En-Suite bathroom, Private veranda and Outdoor rain shower One Bedroom Ocean Front Villa There’s a spacious feeling to this one bedroom villa where rooms flow together informally. The bedroom is nestled under a giant Banyan tree and is furnished with a queen size bed, claw foot tub and outdoor rain shower. There is a second, bamboo-enclosed bathroom that connects to the villa’s living and kitchen area. These rooms open onto a private cut-stone patio with views of the ocean and a picnic table for al fresco dining One Bedroom Beach Villa Each of the five One Bedroom Beach Villas open directly onto Low Cay Beach. All are furnished with a full kitchen, large private porch with outdoor dining table, king-size bed, en-suite bathroom with claw foot tub and adjoining outdoor garden shower. This villa also has a Queen-sizeWorldwide daybed. Dream Villas Two Bedroom Beach Villa There are four Two Bedroom Beach Villas. Each opens directly onto Low Cay Beach. These two-story villas feature two spacious bedrooms (up and downstairs), both with king-size beds and en-suite bathrooms. The downstairs bedroom has an adjoining private garden with outdoor shower. Upstairs, the bedroom porch looks out to the sea. As with all Beach Villas, each is furnished with a full kitchen and private porch with outdoor dining table One Bedroom Lagoon Villa Like all the other villas, the One Bedroom Lagoon Villa is furnished with a king size bed, en-suite bathroom with claw foot tub, an outdoor garden shower, full kitchen and large private porch. This villa also has a stone deck with direct lagoon access Two Bedroom Laggon Villa The Two Bedroom Lagoon Villa has all the amenities and conveniences of all the villas — king-size beds, en-suite bathrooms with claw foot tubs, outdoor garden shower, large private porch and full kitchen. This particular villa sits directly on GoldenEye’s four-acre lagoon and has its own stone deck and an additional wooden deck with direct lagoon access One Bedroom Lagoon Cottage All Lagoon Cottages have king size beds positioned to face the lagoon and Santa Maria Island, the small, uninhabited piece of land at the lagoon’s center. Additionally, every cottage features en-suite bathrooms with deep, oversized claw foot tubs and outdoor garden showers. Steps away from Low Cay Beach One Bedroom Laggon Hut Spanish Elm is a very special GoldenEye property: Cozy, charming and nestled in its own tropical garden, Spanish Elm was one of the first structures Chris built at GoldenEye. It has a view across the lagoon and carved stone steps leading to a private deck for lagoon swimming and sunning. It also has its own a separate kitchen. Guests visiting GoldenEye love the magical vibe of Spanish Elm – it’s the spot where Johnny Depp chose to plant his tree. The bedroom features a King-size bed One Bedroom Beach Hut These Beach Huts are raised to three or five feet. Each features a king-size bed, private veranda and either an interior wet room (an immersive open-concept bathroom with double rain shower heads) or an outdoor shower. With views varying from the cove Oracabessa Bay, the hillside or the garden. Those raised three or five feet have views of the ocean on the cove, Oracabessa Bay, the hillside or the garden One Bedroom Tall Beach Hut These tall huts are raised ten feet off of the sand, offering spectacular views of either Oracabessa Bay or Snorkeler’s Cove. Ideal for a couple looking to experience the sexy beach vibes together, each hut is furnished with a king-sized bed—most beds are positioned to look out onto the private veranda—as well as interior bathrooms designed as sleek, immersive wet rooms (with double rain shower heads) One Bedroom Beach Hut With Open-Air DuneWorldwide Room Dream Villas These beach huts are all raised ten feet. The bedroom is located on the upper level; the sandy-floor, open-air Dune Room is below. These open-air rooms are great for escaping the midday sun or relaxing after a day at the beach on the oversized sofa bed. All Dune Rooms have an outdoor rain shower and claw foot bath tub within the gardens, a dining area furnished with a wet bar, full fridge and toaster. Each is furnished with a king-size bed as well as built with interior wet room (with double rain shower heads) and private veranda Two Bedroom Beach Hut The Two Bedroom, Two-Story Beach Huts sleep four adults. Each floor has the same layout—with king bed and its own bathroom—yet separate entrances on each floor convey the feeling of privacy. Thanks to a clever architectural feature (an indoor ladder connecting the two floors, like a loft), these huts have the feel of a tree house in Jamaica. They’re a great choice for families traveling with older kids Fleming Villa - private villa with 5 bedrooms and private fresh water pool Resort Amenities & Facilities: The Hotel Resort at GoldenEye is the ideal luxury getaway in Jamaica with a variety of guest facilities including the Fresh water swimming pool at the Bizot Bar, along with the signature GoldenEye splash pool, both located on Low Cay Beach.

  • James Bond a 50 The
    JAMES BOND: SIGNIFYING CHANGING IDENTITY THROUGH THE COLD WAR AND BEYOND By Christina A. Clopton Submitted to Central European University Department of International Relations and European Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Masters of Arts Supervisor: Professor Alexander Astrov CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2014 Word Count: 12,928 Abstract The Constructivist paradigm of International Relations (IR) theory has provided for an ‘aesthetic turn’ in IR. This turn can be applied to popular culture in order to theorize about the international system. Using the case study of the James Bond film series, this paper investigates the continuing relevancy of the espionage series through the Cold War and beyond in order to reveal new information about the nature of the international political system. Using the concept of the ‘empty signifier,’ this work establishes the shifting identity of James Bond in relation to four thematic icons in the films: the villains, locations, women and technology and their relation to the international political setting over the last 50 years of the films. Bond’s changing identity throughout the series reveals an increasingly globalized society that gives prominence to David Chandler’s theory about ‘empire in denial,’ in which Western states are ever more reluctant to take responsibility for their intervention abroad. CEU eTD Collection i Acknowledgements I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to Professor Alexander Astrov for taking a chance with me on this project and guiding me through this difficult process. I would also like to acknowledge the constant support and encouragement from my IRES colleagues through the last year.

  • LACMA Presents …Is James Bond, Co-Organized with LMU's School Of
    LACMA presents …Is James Bond, co-organized with LMU’s School of Film and Television, June 9 – September 9, 2012 Exhibition features all twenty-two James Bond opening credit sequences, fourteen of which were created by film title designer Maurice Binder, in celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the Bond franchise (LOS ANGELES, June 4, 2012) – The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) presents …Is James Bond, the first exhibition to feature the complete opening credit sequences from twenty-two James Bond films produced by Eon Productions. Co-organized by LACMA and Loyola Marymount University’s School of Film and Television (SFTV), the exhibition celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of one of the most successful and long-lasting film franchises of all time: James Bond. SFTV Dean Stephen Ujlaki says, “Bond’s impact on popular culture is immense, from music to fashion and automobiles, and on the business side, the people who advanced the franchise deserve immense credit, among them LMU alumna Barbara Broccoli, and Eon Productions.” Over the course of fifty years and twenty-two films (soon to be twenty-three with the release of Skyfall), James Bond has gone from Sean Connery to Daniel Craig, from the Soviets to the North Koreans, from M as a man to a woman, from secret nefarious organizations to power-mad tycoons. And while 007 was changing, the opening credit sequence remained constant. “Beginning with Dr. No, the opening credits, created by Maurice Binder, have functioned as pieces of art that comment on the films, while remaining separate from them,” says Elvis Mitchell, curator for Film Independent at LACMA.

  • A Queer Analysis of the James Bond Canon
    MALE BONDING: A QUEER ANALYSIS OF THE JAMES BOND CANON by Grant C. Hester A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, FL May 2019 Copyright 2019 by Grant C. Hester ii MALE BONDING: A QUEER ANALYSIS OF THE JAMES BOND CANON by Grant C. Hester This dissertation was prepared under the direction of the candidate's dissertation advisor, Dr. Jane Caputi, Center for Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Communication, and Multimedia and has been approved by the members of his supervisory committee. It was submitted to the faculty of the Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters and was accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Khaled Sobhan, Ph.D. Interim Dean, Graduate College iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Jane Caputi for guiding me through this process. She was truly there from this paper’s incubation as it was in her Sex, Violence, and Hollywood class where the idea that James Bond could be repressing his homosexuality first revealed itself to me. She encouraged the exploration and was an unbelievable sounding board every step to fruition. Stephen Charbonneau has also been an invaluable resource. Frankly, he changed the way I look at film. His door has always been open and he has given honest feedback and good advice. Oliver Buckton possesses a knowledge of James Bond that is unparalleled. I marvel at how he retains such information.
