Goldwynn Resort and Residences was developed by Wynn Development Ltd, a Canadian-backed developer, on West Bay Street, Cable Beach, Nassau - the most coveted beachfront address in New Providence. The development is a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, placing it alongside fewer than 700 hotels in more than 90 countries in the world's most rigorously vetted boutique hotel collection. This designation is the foundation of Goldwynn's rental income proposition: the hotel brand, reservation infrastructure, and guest traffic are already in place for any residence owner who joins the rental programme.

The development comprises two distinct ownership categories that buyers often conflate. The 78 condo-hotel suites are the hotel inventory - studios, one-bed, two-bed, and the three-bedroom Goldwynn Suite. These are purchased as freehold properties but operate within the hotel programme. The 77 separate private residences are independent from the hotel floor and provide more flexibility on usage and decoration. Both categories have direct beachfront access, full amenities, and the same Goldwynn brand infrastructure.

The new Goldwynn Penthouses - a 40-unit pre-construction phase unveiled by Wynn Development Ltd in late 2025 - sit above the existing building with exclusive rooftop pool access, 12-foot ceilings, private elevators, sauna, and cold plunge. Pre-construction pricing starts at $2,600,000. At this price point, every penthouse purchase qualifies for both Bahamas EPR and the priority EPR track at $1.5M+.

"Goldwynn is the question I get most from buyers who want Cable Beach but also want actual rental management already in place. The condo-hotel structure means the hotel is already running, the booking system exists, the brand is known. Buyers do not have to set up a separate Airbnb operation or manage a property management company from overseas. For buyers who want owner-controlled rental instead, Bayroc next door is the comparison - but it has no hotel infrastructure. The right answer depends on whether managed income or owner control matters more to that specific buyer."

Lifestyle and amenities

What Goldwynn Owners and Guests Experience

Goldwynn's amenity stack is what separates it from every other Cable Beach development. These are verified from the Small Luxury Hotels of the World listing and the developer website.

Beachfront Infinity Pool and Cabanas

The centrepiece infinity pool sits directly on Cable Beach with ocean-facing private cabanas. Each cabana includes attentive personal butler service. The pool appears to empty onto the sand from the water edge - a design statement that has defined Goldwynn's visual identity since opening. Paddleboards and kayaks are available from the beach.

Rhizophora Spa

Goldwynn's full-service spa uses VOYA and Biologique Recherche treatments exclusively - two of the most respected professional skincare and wellness brands in the boutique hotel market. Three treatment rooms including one couple's suite. Nail and hair salon for simultaneous treatments. The spa takes a holistic approach to mind-body wellness with ancient ritual and modern technology combined.

OIA Restaurant and Dining

OIA is Goldwynn's signature restaurant serving a fusion of Mediterranean specialities and Asian favourites with a Japanese influence, described by Small Luxury Hotels of the World as serving "Mediterranean flavours on the gilded sands." Additional dining at the poolside bar and grill, atrium lounge, and oceanfront terrace. Four distinct dining and drinking venues within the development.

Cable Beach Direct Access

Goldwynn sits directly on Cable Beach, voted one of the top 10 beaches in the Bahamas. White powder sand, crystalline water, and consistently clear conditions. Goldwynn owns its beachfront position on West Bay Street. Snorkelling equipment, kayaking, paddleboards, and yoga classes all available from the beach without leaving the development.

Baha Mar Walking Distance

Baha Mar - the largest resort complex in the Caribbean - is walkable along Cable Beach from Goldwynn's front door. It houses the largest casino in the Caribbean, the Royal Blue Golf Club championship course, 40+ restaurants, the SLS, Rosewood, and Grand Hyatt hotel towers, and the Baha Mar ESPA spa. Goldwynn residents access the full Baha Mar entertainment offer with a beach walk.

Royal Blue Golf Club

The Royal Blue Golf Club championship course - designed by Jack Nicklaus - is immediately adjacent to Goldwynn on West Bay Street. Golf course view units at Goldwynn look directly onto the fairways. Residents access tee times through the Baha Mar booking system. For buyers comparing golf-adjacent properties in Nassau, Goldwynn's position is unmatched - no other Cable Beach development sits as close to the course.

24-Hour Fitness Centre and Yoga

A 24-hour fitness centre is available to all owners and guests. Daily yoga classes on the beach or within the development are a standard part of the guest experience. For the new Goldwynn Penthouses, a dedicated fitness club is included as an exclusive penthouse amenity alongside the rooftop pool, sauna, and cold plunge.

Frette Italian Sheets and Premium Interiors

Every Goldwynn unit comes with Frette Italian sheets, down comforters, and premium bedding - the same linen brand used by the world's finest hotels. 55-inch flat-screen TVs, rainfall showerheads, espresso makers, full kitchens or kitchenettes, and furnished balconies are standard across all unit types. These specifications are documented on Expedia, Booking.com, and the SLH listing - not developer marketing language.

Small Luxury Hotels of the World Membership

Goldwynn's SLH membership means buyers are purchasing into an internationally recognised boutique hotel brand with a global reservations network. SLH vets fewer than 700 hotels in 90+ countries annually. For rental programme participants, the SLH booking channel delivers an affluent international traveller demographic who self-selects for boutique luxury - the highest-yielding STR segment in Nassau.


Costs and investment

Goldwynn Purchase Costs and Investment Case

Every buyer needs a complete cost picture before making an offer. Glenn provides this for any specific unit - no generic estimates.

Closing cost breakdown - example at $1,700,000
Purchase price$1,700,000
Conveyance VAT (flat 10% - government mandated)$170,000
Legal fees (2.5-3.5% plus 10% VAT on fees)$46,750 - $65,450
Title search$2,000 - $4,000
Deposit at offer (held in attorney escrow)$170,000 (10%)
Total acquisition budget estimate$1,888,750 - $1,939,450
EPR government fee (if applying)$20,000 on approval
Investment Board registration$25 USD (personal residential use)
Closing cost breakdown - example Penthouse at $2,600,000
Purchase price$2,600,000
Conveyance VAT (flat 10%)$260,000
Legal fees (2.5-3.5% plus 10% VAT on fees)$71,500 - $100,100
Title search$2,000 - $4,000
Total acquisition budget estimate$2,873,500 - $2,964,100
EPR priority trackQualifies - $2.6M exceeds $1.5M threshold

Closing cost estimates only. Conveyance VAT confirmed at 10% flat under the Conveyancing Amendment Act 2025 for all buyers. Legal fees vary by attorney. Glenn provides a precise breakdown for the specific unit before any offer is made.

The conveyance VAT is the most important number in any Bahamas condo purchase and the one most frequently underestimated. At a flat 10% on the full purchase price - for all buyers, Bahamian and foreign, no exemptions - a $1.7M Goldwynn residence carries a $170,000 government stamp duty at closing. This is non-negotiable and cannot be rolled into a mortgage. Every buyer must have this amount available in addition to the purchase price. Glenn states this in the first conversation on every transaction because buyers who discover it late create unnecessary delays.

The investment case for Goldwynn rests on three pillars: Nassau STR demand (12.5 million visitors in 2025 per the Ministry of Tourism, January 28, 2026, with average short-term rental nightly rates of $510.80 per AirDNA/CBOB August 2025); tax-free income (zero Bahamian income, capital gains, or inheritance tax for all owners regardless of nationality); and EPR eligibility (every unit at $1M+ qualifies for permanent residency, with the penthouse phase qualifying for the priority track).

For buyers considering a mortgage, non-resident financing is available through RBC, CIBC FirstCaribbean, and Scotiabank Bahamas at approximately 30-50% down, 6-8% fixed rate, over 15-25 years. Glenn provides lender introductions as part of the standard buyer package. Financing cannot cover the 10% conveyance VAT - that must be funded from liquid capital.

The annual property tax rate for non-owner-occupied Goldwynn units is 1% on the first $500,000 of value and 2% above, capped at $150,000 annually per RPT Amendment Act No. 43 of 2025. On a $1.7M residence, the annual property tax is approximately $29,000.

Knight Frank Global Wealth Report, 2025

The Bahamas had its strongest visitor year on record in 2025, with 12.5 million arrivals confirmed by the Ministry of Tourism on January 28, 2026. This demand directly underpins Goldwynn's rental proposition: the hotel reservation system, the SLH global booking network, and Nassau's established air connections from Miami, New York, Atlanta, Toronto, and London Heathrow mean the guest pipeline for any owner who joins the rental programme is real infrastructure, not projection.

Nassau luxury condo inventory is running approximately 20% below the prior year while luxury transaction volumes grew 68% in 2025. For Goldwynn buyers, this means the resale market for a well-maintained beachfront unit has more buyers per available listing than at any point in the development's history. For Penthouse pre-construction buyers at $2.6M, the 10-year hold required under the January 2025 EPR rules aligns with the runway of continued supply pressure on Cable Beach beachfront stock.

The Bahamian dollar maintains its 1:1 peg to the US dollar - every price, every rental payment, and every eventual resale is denominated in USD with zero currency risk for US buyers. The Bahamas GDP grew 2.8% in 2025 per the IMF (February 5, 2026) with tourism revenue at $7 billion. The economic case for the island as a wealth storage jurisdiction is supported by institutional confidence - Knight Frank's 2025 data shows half of high-net-worth expats in the Bahamas have formalised their presence through permanent residency, a figure that has doubled from pre-pandemic levels.

Residency through Goldwynn

Goldwynn Qualifies for Bahamas Economic Permanent Residency

Every Goldwynn purchase at $1,000,000 or above qualifies for Bahamas EPR. The new Penthouses at $2,600,000+ qualify for the priority track. Glenn files EPR applications concurrently with purchase closings.

The Bahamas Economic Permanent Residency programme grants the indefinite right to reside in the Bahamas through a qualifying real estate investment of $1,000,000 or above (effective January 1, 2025, raised from $750,000 per Fragomen and the Bahamas Department of Immigration). The investment must be held for a minimum of 10 years from the date of EPR approval - a new requirement effective January 2025. Every Goldwynn private residence and penthouse currently on the MLS meets or exceeds this threshold.

The current MLS listing at $1,700,000 qualifies for the EPR priority track, which applies to purchases at $1.5M or above. Priority applications receive expedited consideration from the Immigration Board and typically move significantly faster than the standard 6-18 month timeline. The Goldwynn Penthouses at $2,600,000 also qualify for this priority track, providing the fastest possible EPR processing timeline alongside the most exclusive unit type in the development.

EPR grants the indefinite right of residence in the Bahamas - zero income tax, zero capital gains tax, zero inheritance tax for all EPR holders. No mandatory full-time residency: the Department of Immigration requires an expressed intention to be present in the Bahamas for 90 days per year. After 10 years of legal permanent residence, EPR holders may apply for Bahamian citizenship through naturalisation. For the full EPR guide including all 2026 requirements, fees, and the application process, see the Bahamas permanent residency guide.

10-year hold: what it means for Goldwynn buyers

Effective January 1, 2025, EPR holders must maintain their qualifying investment for 10 years from the date of EPR approval. Selling a Goldwynn unit before the 10-year mark may result in EPR revocation. Buyers purchasing Goldwynn with EPR as an objective need to plan for a 10-year hold from the outset - not as an afterthought. Glenn discusses this before any shortlist is prepared.

For Goldwynn buyers the question Glenn answers first is not "which unit" - it is "which category." A buyer whose primary objective is managed rental income maximisation has a different shortlist than a buyer who wants private residential use with optional rental on their own terms. A buyer targeting EPR who plans to hold for exactly 10 years needs a different unit to a buyer who is purchasing Goldwynn as a primary base. These distinctions change the shortlist, the price point, and the relevant comparable developments. Glenn establishes this before any MLS listing is shared.

For buyers comparing Goldwynn with Bayroc, with One Cable Beach, Palm Cay Marina, or with Nassau homes at homesforsaleinnassaubahamas.com, Glenn covers all developments from a single conversation. For EPR buyers, the permanent residency guide covers the full 2026 requirements. All service at no cost to the buyer - seller pays commission in every Bahamas transaction.

"The 10% conveyance VAT and the 10-year EPR hold are the two facts that restructure the most conversations about Goldwynn. Buyers who account for both from the first call are the ones who close cleanly. Buyers who discover either fact at the due diligence stage face delays or reconsidering their budget entirely. I raise both in the first 10 minutes of every Goldwynn conversation because it saves everyone time."

Goldwynn weddings

Getting Married at Goldwynn Nassau

Goldwynn Resort and Residences is one of Nassau's most requested wedding venues. The beachfront infinity pool, private ocean-facing cabanas, Cable Beach backdrop, and OIA Restaurant make it a complete wedding setting without leaving the property. Glenn Ferguson is the single contact who handles both the property purchase and the wedding ceremony.

Goldwynn's experienced wedding coordinators handle personalised ceremonies at the resort - from intimate elopements to larger celebrations. Indoor and outdoor event spaces are available with multiple backdrops: the beachfront with the infinity pool as the ceremony setting, the OIA Restaurant oceanfront terrace for the reception, and the private cabana areas for smaller groups. The resort's spacious suites accommodate the wedding party. Goldwynn has confirmed its positioning as a beach wedding venue through its Nassau Paradise Island travel board listing.

For buyers who are purchasing a Goldwynn residence and also planning to marry in the Bahamas, Glenn Ferguson handles both transactions from a single contact. As a Licensed Bahamas Marriage Officer and WPIC-Certified Wedding Planner with 200+ ceremonies performed across the Bahamas, Glenn can legally solemnise the ceremony at Goldwynn. The marriage licence costs $100 plus $20 for a certified copy, with both parties required to be present in the Bahamas 24 hours before applying. All wedding services are subject to 10% Bahamas VAT.

"I have buyers who purchase a Goldwynn residence and marry at Goldwynn in the same visit. It is the most efficient combination available on Cable Beach - closing on a beachfront condo and the ceremony on the same stretch of sand. The logistics are straightforward: the conveyance closes, I file the EPR application, we arrange the marriage licence, and the ceremony happens while they are already in Nassau. One trip, one contact, two legal events completed."

Every question answered

Goldwynn Nassau - Buyer FAQ

The questions buyers ask about Goldwynn before making an offer - answered directly.

What is Goldwynn Resort and Residences Nassau?

Goldwynn Resort and Residences is a boutique beachfront condo-hotel on West Bay Street, Cable Beach, Nassau, developed by Wynn Development Ltd and a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World. The development comprises 78 condo-hotel suites (studios through to the three-bedroom Goldwynn Suite) and 77 separate private residences on an independent residential floor. A new phase - Goldwynn Penthouses - adds 40 pre-construction penthouse units from $2,600,000 with 12-foot ceilings, private elevators, rooftop pool, sauna, and cold plunge. Amenities include a beachfront infinity pool with private cabanas and butler service, the Rhizophora Spa (VOYA and Biologique Recherche), OIA Restaurant, and four dining and drinking venues. Baha Mar is walking distance along Cable Beach. Royal Blue Golf Club is immediately adjacent.

How much do Goldwynn residences cost in Nassau?

Current Bahamas MLS listings include 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom fifth-floor private residence at 1,119 sq ft for $1,700,000. The developer cites average private residence sizes of approximately 1,200 sq ft for 2-bed configurations and 1,700 sq ft for 3-bed. The new Goldwynn Penthouses phase starts at $2,600,000 pre-construction for 2-bed and 3-bed configurations with 12-foot ceilings. Condo-hotel suites are priced separately - contact Glenn for current MLS availability across all categories. All closing costs include a flat 10% government conveyance VAT on the full purchase price. Call Glenn at +1-242-395-8495 for a current, specific MLS listing and a personalised cost breakdown.

What are the closing costs on a Goldwynn purchase?

Closing costs on any Goldwynn purchase have three main components. First: a flat 10% government conveyance VAT on the full purchase price - the same for all buyers, Bahamian and foreign, under the Conveyancing Amendment Act 2025. On a $1.7M purchase this is $170,000; on a $2.6M Penthouse it is $260,000. This cannot be avoided or reduced. Second: legal fees of 2.5-3.5% plus 10% VAT on the legal fees, plus a title search of $2,000-$4,000. Third: a 10% deposit paid into attorney escrow at offer acceptance. On a $1.7M purchase the total acquisition budget is approximately $1.89M-$1.94M. Glenn provides a precise breakdown for the specific unit before any offer is made.

What is the rental programme at Goldwynn and how much can owners earn?

Goldwynn offers a bespoke rental programme managed by the development's property management team. For private residences the programme is optional. The developer website confirms no restrictions on usage for Penthouse owners with maximum use and enjoyment guaranteed. Rental income from Bahamas property is tax-free for all owners - the Bahamas imposes zero income tax regardless of how much an owner earns. STR operators remit 10% VAT on nightly rates quarterly to the Bahamas government. Nassau's average short-term rental nightly rate was $510.80 per AirDNA and the Central Bank of the Bahamas in August 2025. Glenn confirms specific rental programme terms, management fee structure, and any occupancy restrictions for each unit type before any offer is prepared - buyer decisions should not be based on developer marketing projections alone.

Does buying a Goldwynn residence qualify for Bahamas permanent residency?

Yes. Any Goldwynn purchase at $1,000,000 or above qualifies for Bahamas Economic Permanent Residency (EPR), the minimum effective January 1, 2025. The current MLS listing at $1,700,000 and all Goldwynn Penthouses from $2,600,000 both qualify. Both also meet the EPR priority track threshold at $1.5M+, which gives expedited consideration from the Immigration Board. EPR grants the indefinite right to reside in the Bahamas, zero income tax, and a pathway to citizenship after 10 years. The qualifying investment must be held for a minimum of 10 years from EPR approval - a new requirement effective January 2025. Glenn files EPR applications concurrently with Goldwynn purchase closings. See the full EPR guide for all 2026 requirements.

How does Goldwynn compare to Bayroc on Cable Beach?

Both are beachfront condo developments on Cable Beach with Baha Mar walking distance. The key difference is hotel infrastructure. Goldwynn is a condo-hotel - a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World with active hotel operations, a managed rental programme, four dining venues, and a full-service spa. Bayroc is a gated residential community with owner-controlled rentals, no hotel management, and no on-site dining. Goldwynn suits buyers who want managed income with resort amenities on-site. Bayroc suits buyers who want residential privacy and owner-controlled STR without hotel programme restrictions. Entry prices differ: Bayroc starts from approximately $1.095M, Goldwynn from $1.7M on current resale inventory. Both qualify for EPR. Glenn compares current MLS listings across both in a single conversation.

Can I buy a Goldwynn residence remotely without visiting Nassau?

Yes. Remote purchase of Bahamas real estate is legal and well-established. Glenn provides current Goldwynn MLS listings, virtual tours where available, floor plan documentation, rental programme terms, closing cost breakdowns, and attorney introductions - all remotely before any travel commitment. The Bahamian attorney handles the legal aspects of the conveyance and can arrange for powers of attorney to execute documents without the buyer being present at closing.

"Goldwynn already ranks - the page has traction. What it has never had is a buyer's guide that actually explains the difference between the condo-hotel suites and the private residences, what the 10% VAT means at $1.7M, how the rental programme works, and why the Penthouse phase changes the EPR conversation. Buyers who find the page and read it properly arrive at the first call already informed. That is when transactions move quickly."
