Available on request

The brief

The reason to consider it.

Enjoy ocean sights and scents from this hilltop vacant land in Stella Maris, Long Island. The lot, across from Stone Beach, is a generous 71,000 sq ft and within walking distance of several beaches—large enough for several vacation cottages. The nearby Stella Maris Resort Club offers a four-star, air-conditioned hotel, marina, dry-dock facilities, restaurant, airstrip, laundry, and post office, among other amenities. Long Island is approximately 165 miles south of Nassau and is known for its dramatic cliffs, white sand beaches, and the famous Dean’s Blue Hole. As its name suggests, the island is long, almost 80 miles from Cape Santa Maria to South Point. It is serviced by two commercial airstrips: Stella Maris and Deadman’s Cay. Electricity, water, and phone service are readily available, with shopping at the resort and in nearby settlements/towns.

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
