Antigua & Barbuda are among the most beautiful and exclusive of the Caribbean islands. It’s no wonder celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Giorgio Armani, Eric Clapton and Richard Branson already own property here.
Located in the north-western part of the Antigua & Barbuda Special Economic Zone, lies a development that not only offers investors a unique combination of oceanfront land and villa ownership but affords them and their families citizenship of the twin island nation.
This makes Development 1, currently in its first phase of development, one of the most financially attractive investments in the Caribbean.
FEATURES
Set to be a world-class gated community and beach club, the development will include a welcome center, meeting facility, business center, pool club and bar, two signature restaurants, main pool with cabanas, children’s pool and playground, fitness center, wedding pavilion and other amenities.
Homeowners will enjoy the breath-taking sea views and enthralling leisure that comes with being located on this end of the island.
Residents can opt to enroll in the resort's Rental Pool Program (RPP), with access to a dedicated reservations and concierge team to manage, maintain and lease to visitors, guaranteeing an attractive return on investment annually.
Under the Citizenship by Investment Programme (CIP), potential homeowners and their families can apply to own no less than 600 sqm of freehold oceanfront land, in addition to a 150 sqm villa comprising of 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, living room, dining room and kitchen.
