The brief

The reason to consider it.

Within the sun-kissed world of Ocean Club Estates, Villa Sul Mare takes centre stage as one of the most unique and architecturally significant homes in the community.

This magnificent waterfront estate holds court within an oasis of stately palms, embraced by natural flora and a lily pond that is every botanist’s delight. The expansive fully air-conditioned villa houses six bedrooms under seven roofs: a unique floor plan that epitomizes casual island elegance. The minimalist design provides for clean, spacious living with expansive patios to take full advantage of the outdoor living along the water and green areas.

Outside the great room on the harbour side is the poolside terrace, furnished with plush upholstered seating for watching the kids in the pool, reading or napping, and a large dining table under a roofed pergola for alfresco meals. This expansive outdoor area - 3,000 square feet in total - where you’ll spend most of your time also has a grill, ping-pong table for family championship competitions and a deck lined with cushioned chaise lounges for sun worshippers.

Situated on an acre of waterfront land in the prestigious gated enclave of Ocean Club Estates, Villa Sul Mare is that rare property that embodies the tenets of Island Chic. All the bells and whistles are here: in a package that is easy to digest and even easier to enjoy. Every handsome custom detail makes Villa Sul Mare a unique and matchless Bahamian villa for family and friends to enjoy - five brilliant stars, and more!

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
