Get to know Sandyport

Sandyport is a popular choice for people who live in the Bahamas throughout the year. The pastel Georgian Colonial houses here serve as primary residences, rather than secondary vacation homes, thanks to Sandyport’s proximity to grocery stores, shopping, and other day-to-day needs. Located on the northwestern end of Cable Beach in Nassau, Sandyport is near everything necessary in the Bahamian capital. Though Sandyport is a gated community with a resort hotel, it’s different from many other Bahamian developments because the village life is spread throughout the neighborhood, rather than concentrated in one club. There are six community tennis courts, seven swimming pools, and three playgrounds. In Olde Towne, the commercial center of Sandyport, there are numerous restaurants, a school, a post office, a bank, a gym, and a supermarket. Canals and waterways crisscross Sandyport, so every house is a waterfront residence and a quick jaunt to the beach.

Living in Sandyport

Composed of more than 700 islands, cays, and islets, The Bahamas has an island for every mood. The calm, warm, jewel-colored waters of the surrounding Atlantic Ocean define the ebb and flow of life here and Bahamians wake up knowing they live in one of the most beautiful places on earth. New Providence Island, home to the capital of Nassau, is the economic and commercial center of Bahamian life and just an hour’s flight away from Miami. There are multiple residential communities here that vary in style, ranging from the decorous pastel charms of Lyford Cay to the extravagant mansions of Albany, as well as multiple luxury high-rises. The islands of the Bahamas stretch for more than 500 miles and as you move farther south, the Out (or Family) Islands become less and less populated, many without a single human inhabitant. Others, like Eleuthera and Harbour Island, are pockets of sophisticated seclusion, while the Exumas, a chain of 365 islands, offer peaceful privacy and pristine beaches.
