2.  Low Maintenance Fees!!

The work is done efficiently and as cost effective as possible.  Since the management fee is calculated based on revenues, it is also in the best interest of the property management company to ensure that all maintenance expenses are kept as low as possible, which means lower maintenance fees for absentee owners like you.

3.  Excellent Security System/Gated Communities

Most, if not all, resort communities in the Caribbean are gated communities with security available 24/7.

4. Owner Discounts and Special Privileges

Property owners enjoy varying discounts at shops, bars, restaurants and leisure facilities.  This may differ from resort to resort, but property owners generally have unlimited access to  resort  private beaches and pools at very reasonable prices or in most cases free.

5. One Stop Bill Payment System

The management companies  provide utilities so this saves you having to deal with the local utility companies. Bills for water and electric come every month and you can pay them when you arrive or before you leave at the appropriate office on the premises.

6.  Fabulous Facilities &  Special  Services On Site.

Most resort facilities are ‘self contained communities”.   You can expect to find  deli restaurant, beach clubs,  spas, golf courses, fitness centers, and much more.  If you don’t want to leave don’t have to.  Everything you can possibly need is  on hand, so you don’t have to venture out if you don’t want to.

7. Excellent Rental Income Potential

Even if you cannot live in paradise all year round, you can earn passive income by renting your vacation home to tourists.  This rental income can then be used to pay for your next vacation or to off set the costs of your mortgage or maintenance fees.  There is a huge demand for luxury as well as affordable vacation rentals located in resort communities.

8. Friendly People

A growing number of expats are starting business in the Caribbean and  relocating here.  Also ,  increasing numbers of  penshonado’s (retirees ) are making Curacao  their permanent retirement home. Resort living in the Caribbean  is really just like “going home”.  As you start to make tons of new friends you can expect to experience a lovely community spirit.

9. Growing Property Prices &  Excellent ROI

For those who get in on the pre-construction phases, you  can expect  an excellent return on investment.  Many purchasers who buy off-plan ( pre construction phase) can expect as much as 20% appreciation by the time the project is completed.  Property resales can therefore provide excellent return on investments for those who bought early.


10. Professional Onsite Management Services.

For those wishing to rent out their properties, their is an excellent choice of companies throughout the resort who will deal with every aspect of management for you including collecting visitors from the airport, check in/check out, laundry, shopping, advertising - so you can just sit back and enjoy your investment!!!
