 Father and son team James Shucart Christopher Shucart brought to life their vision of Olde Florida with the initial purchase of the Port of the Islands Marina and Hotel in June of 2005.
After renovation of and improvements to the Hotel and grounds, the property was then purchased by Sunstream Hotels and Resorts, a leading hotel management and development firm with holdings throughout Southwest Florida.
The Shucart's attention then turned toward the Marina where the team invested more than $2,000,000 in the renovation of the entire Marina facility including, but not limited to: installing new Bellingham concrete floating docks, adding new pedestals, electric service and water to each slip, extensive landscaping throughout the property, and the remodeling of the 7,200 SqFt Marina building and ship store.
In 2008 the ships store, boat launch ramp, and adjacent dry boat storage parking facility was purchased by the Collier County Parks and Recreation Department. This transaction allows all Collier County and Port of the Islands residents the ability to access and enjoy the one and only 10,000 Islands in perpetuity.
