Port St Charles

Port St Charles is the island's flagship marina development, an exclusive gated community just north of Speightstown where 1-to-4-bedroom apartments and villas sit directly on the marina, many with their own berths for yachts moored steps from the door. Set along 1,300 feet of beach, it offers a full-service marina, customs clearance, two beaches, a yacht club restaurant, pools, tennis, pickleball, gym and spa behind round-the-clock security. The investment case is rare marina exclusivity. Residences price from roughly US$700 to US$1,100+ per sq ft, with larger 2,200-plus sq ft units starting around US$950,000 and waterfront villas higher. Scarcity of berth-side product and strong managed-rental demand drive 7-10% gross yields and around 10% annual appreciation. Non-residents pay no capital gains tax, and offshore-company ownership is the norm for these high-value assets.
