Flexible workspace

Technology has changed the way we do business and now working from home makes sense.

Floor to ceiling built-in cabinetry provides ample storage space while giving the room a professional atmosphere. The sitting area is ideal for meetings or can be converted into an extra workspace. Ocean Club Estates has endless amenities giving residents the luxury of leaving their home office and being at the golf course, tennis courts or simply relaxing on the beach and clubhouse in just seconds.

Gardens and yards
Creek House, selected by Leo Huber
It is already a rare commodity to have a property that is shore-to-shore. But Creek House, at 3 Sea Spray Lane, New Providence, also features a magnificent mature garden of almost one-acre. Here, you don’t have to spend thousands on professional landscaping or wait 6-8 years for your exotic plants to mature and fruit. Not so with Creek House, which has multiple mango trees, coconut, breadfruit, and banana groves. Flowers and palms provide the shade while you enjoy your ocean views. Both front and back gardens are also spacious enough and secure for children to play.

Privacy
Whale Cay, selected by Ana Wassitsch
For a luxury spacious property that provides privacy and security and a prime beachfront location, look no further than this villa at Whale Cay, in the Berry Islands. Here, you have 4.5 acres of space and privacy on the private island. The four-bedroom, 6,500 square foot home is 35-feet above sea-level and so provides amazing 360-degree views of the ocean. Outdoor living is highlighted from the spacious covered patio, just steps away from its extensive, private beach. The home has its own electricity generator. The villa features custom-made mahogany cabinetry and high ceilings to emphasize space and luxury. It is ideal for a large family. Whale Cay has its own private aircraft runway for convenient travel.

Waterfront Access
B301 Ocean Club Residences & Marina, selected by Natasha Vythoulkas
The exclusive community of Ocean Club Residences and Marina on Nassau Harbour enjoys beautiful views overlooking Montagu Bay. This luxury three-bed waterfront condo has large windows, making the most of the wonderful waterfront views and letting in the light.

Residents can enjoy two resort-style swimming pools plus a state-of-the-art fitness centre. They also have access to a Private Beach Club with an infinity pool, restaurant, tennis courts & playground, along a two-mile stretch of beautiful white sandy beach.
