The reason to consider it.
Mission Bay captures the charm of relaxed coastal living with breathtaking Caribbean views, cooling sea breezes, and direct boating access right from your doorstep. This elevated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom cottage blends rustic island character with modern comfort, creating the perfect retreat for life by the sea.
Inside, the open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area is bright and welcoming, designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living. French doors lead to a covered porch where you can unwind in the shade, enjoy spectacular sunsets, and embrace the peaceful rhythm of island life. An outdoor shower adds to the home’s barefoot beach-house appeal, ideal after a swim or a day out on the water.
One of the property’s standout features is its calm, boat-friendly Caribbean frontage, allowing you to cruise directly to and from the property with ease. Whether boating, fishing, kayaking, or exploring nearby cays and reefs, the sea becomes an extension of your backyard.
The cottage is fully equipped with air conditioning throughout, a modern kitchen, and a backup water system for comfortable year-round living. Beneath the home, a shaded covered space offers parking for cars or boats, ample storage, and additional room with potential for future expansion.
Just a short drive away, the Atlantic side of Eleuthera reveals miles of pink sand beaches and vibrant coral reefs, offering the perfect balance of adventure and tranquility. There is also the rare opportunity to acquire an additional 25 acres, extending to 355 feet of pristine sandy beachfront, creating an exceptional sea-to-sea estate.

What people say about Bahamas
Sources agree that foreigners can own Bahamian property outright and that an ordinary home purchase needs a registration filing through a Bahamian lawyer, not a discretionary permit.
- Positive Foreign buyers mostly register rather than seek a permit; permit applies to large or commercial land
- Mixed Closing costs are dominated by a 10% transfer VAT for foreign buyers, usually split with the seller, plus legal fees
- Mixed Annual property tax is being reshaped in 2026 (new foreign owner-occupied category), and Bahamian realtors dispute fairness
- Concern Vacant land owned by foreigners carries a notably heavier tax until built on
