Bahamian RHAPSODY
By air and sea, via superyacht, private jet or the more prosaic cruise ship, the number of visitors alighting in the Bahamas is growing at a staggering pace. The archipelago saw its highest number of international arrivals ever in 2018. And yet the most desirable destinations among its many places to stay have retained the air of exclusivity that has made the Bahamas a haven for celebrities and the moneyed elite for many years. With more than 100,000 square miles of ocean, 700-plus islands and more than 2,000 rocks and cays—many of them private—the number of high-end resorts is more than equalled by the secluded enclaves of the wealthy and publicity-shy; Private Islands Inc. currently has 60 Bahamian cays and islands listed for sale at prices ranging from $700,000 to around $60 million.
With real estate prices on the rise, thanks in part to the area’s reputation as a safe haven for foreign investors, adding one to your portfolio seems like a wise move.
