The reason to consider it.
Aptly named Jewel Point, this 28-acre peninsula of Royal Island is the crown jewel of the Bahamas, boasting 1.5 miles of water frontage with tremendous elevation changes resulting in an awe-inspiring 360-degree panoramic peak that cascades down to a beautiful private beach looking toward a picturesque turquoise bay and Egg Island beyond.
Jewel Point is connected via a narrow isthmus to the larger 402-acre peninsula of Royal Island, which is approved for a major resort, marina, and an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus. If developed, this would be a huge amenity for the estate owner of Jewel Point. Originally platted as part of the development, Jewel Point has a fully approved subdivision in place should one desire to develop it; however, it is also perfectly situated to serve as a majestic single-estate property.
Jewel Point is, in essence, its own private island surrounded by beautiful waters and located near the great workforce of Spanish Wells and the North Eleuthera Airport. This crown jewel of the Bahamas will be the perfect addition to an extraordinary development on Royal Island or a rare gem of an island in its own right.

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
