Sandyport

Charming Canal View

Sandyport’s development website describes the community as “A gated community built in a single distinctive architectural style on a pedestrian scale.  The result is a balance of style and nature that feels human and personal.”  The community is located on the outskirts of Cable Beach and within close proximity to the international airport.  Sandyport is very popular with expats moving to the Bahamas for their first time.  It is more affordable than the first 4 on our list while still offering similar amenities and services.
