With nearly 800 feet of beachfront, a strong income history, and one of the most sought-after locations in The Bahamas, it’s a major opportunity.
And it just hit the market for just under $25 million, Caribbean Journal Invest has learned.
Hideaways at Palm Bay has emerged as a unique investment opportunity in the heart of Exuma’s surging tourism and real estate market.
Located just seven miles east of Exuma International Airport and less than two miles from George Town, Hideaways at Palm Bay blends resort functionality with residential flexibility—offering 95 units across multiple ownership and rental programs, all in a classic Bahamian beachfront setting.
The resort is spread across a wide swath of sand with Bahamian-style cottages and villas, tucked among palms and gardens with views of Elizabeth Harbour. Accommodations range from studio-style cottages to spacious two-bedroom villas. Cottages feature mini kitchens, dining areas, and private patios, while villas come with full kitchens, living and dining rooms, and larger indoor-outdoor living space—giving the property strong appeal across multiple guest demographics.
Built-In Profitability
One of the most attractive elements of Hideaways is its dual revenue model: the resort earns from both its accommodation rental program and its restaurant and bar operations, each of which is already profitable. Sellers report that the addition of several new units into the hotel program is expected to further enhance revenues.
Currently, 28 units are enrolled in the Full Hotel program, along with another 14 individually owned units that participate fully in the same program. An additional 25 privately owned units are part of the Guest Services program, with 23 more opted out and five staff housing units rounding out the inventory.
The resort infrastructure includes a beachfront bar and grill, a large swimming pool, a fitness center, and complimentary non-motorized watersports. Hideaways also offers free Wi-Fi, on-site parking, and shuttle service to George Town, which enhances both the guest experience and the resort’s operating efficiency.
Exuma’s Investment Moment
Exuma has seen rising tourism numbers and strong second-home demand, helping to fuel one of the most active real estate markets in The Bahamas, driven by a soon-to-open, transformed airport. Hideaways at Palm Bay taps directly into both trends — offering a turnkey opportunity that combines resort ownership with steady, diversified income.
For investors looking to enter the Bahamian hospitality market without the lift of development or repositioning, Hideaways presents a compelling case: a fully operational, revenue-producing property with immediate upside in one of the region’s fastest-growing destinations.
