The brief

The reason to consider it.

Middle Island Property on Saba Dutch Caribbean is now for sale. It’s located down Wells Bay Road with ocean views including The Diamond Rock, and not far from the capital of Saba The Bottom.

The location is unique in a quiet and developing section of the island, the lot is accessible via a private road just off the main road, and it’s reasonably priced for properties in that area of the island.

There are many reasons why you should choose Saba. While tourism is an important economic pillar, you won’t find masses of travelers here. The economy is growing and the connectivity improving, making it an interesting location and a good time for you to start investing.
