Beautiful island homes

Upscale communities in Grand Bahama

The sheer beauty of The Bahamas is abundantly obvious–the sunny blue skies, balmy climate, crystal-clear water, long white beaches and lush tropical vegetation.

Those attractions have lured many people to extend their vacation to part-time or full-time residency here.

The world’s economy may still be on shaky ground, but that has made Grand Bahama an even better place to acquire property at an attractive price.

Second-home buyers and investors are taking advantage of that situation now, and more are sure to follow.

Grand Bahama is more than just a vacation destination; it’s also a subtropical home to an increasing number of people from Europe, Canada and the United States.

The residential real estate market remains active, despite global economic problems, with dozens of beautiful homes available in gated communities.

These dwellings come with many amenities, including 24-hour security, pools, clubhouses, marinas and pristine beaches. Take a look. You could find your dream home in Grand Bahama.
