Live Among the Celebrities in the Caribbean 

Those who love the glamour of the Red Carpet often flock to secluded getaways for their vacation homes. And if you are in the market for a new home, you may just enjoy living among the celebrities in the Caribbean. Kayifi can help that dream come true. 

Why Live in the Caribbean? 

Living in the Caribbean has a distinct list of benefits. Not only may you encounter the celebrities among us, but there are a host of other island possibilities, both pleasurable and healthy. One can bask in the warm climate and gentle ocean breezes in the Caribbean while taking in natural beauty. The slower-paced lifestyle adds to the fantastic culture and delightful food choices. And the people of the islands are friendly and welcoming to all who enter their part of the ocean. 

However, if you want to live in the areas adorned by the world's celebrities, you will want to check out just where they frequent.

The celebrities of the islands are really there to enjoy time out of the spotlight. So, while they are there, the people of the Caribbean treat them like any other… for the most part, anyhow.

Affordable Places to Live in the Caribbean 

Is there such a thing as affordable living on the Caribbean islands? Well, the answer is yes. Check out the likes of Ambergris Caye in Belize, Roatan in Honduras, Isla Mujeres in Mexico, the DR’s Las Terrenas, Isla Colon in Panama and more. 

With lower taxes, proximity to the beach, local farmer's markets, and spacious homes, you can enjoy the Caribbean life without breaking the bank. 

Living Among the Stars 

Gallivant around town like a celebrity on one of several hotspots. Not only are the Bahamas the island of choice. Stars and millionaires choose islands like St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Jamaica, Antigua, Anguilla, and more. However, if the life of glamour and spotlights is what you are after, there are two things to keep in mind when locating a celebrity neighbor. 

  • Celebrities come to the islands to get away from all of the glitz and glam. They are there to rest, recuperate, and "be normal." In the Caribbean, we try hard to allow them their privacy. 
  • The properties of these more popular hotspots are going to cost you a lot more than other islands. 

There are plenty of islands and homes to rent or purchase on the Caribbean island. Whether you are looking to relocate, or move there for the first time, check out all the Caribbean has to offer before you decide on a place to call home. 

Perhaps a Rental? 

In the Caribbean, there are many places to enjoy an extended holiday and rent a place to stay. When choosing a place for life among the stars… for a time, keep in mind the following tips. 

  1. Each Caribbean island has a different price point. Where you may want the experience, paying for it may not be your idea of relaxing. The good news is, choices range all over the scale. 
  2. Choosing the right island includes the experience you desire. Do you want mountain views? Would you prefer a beachfront property? And what about the food and culture? Perhaps you want nightlife, bars, and casinos. The choice is yours. 
  3. Employ the assistance of a real estate agent specializing in rental properties. 
  4. The high season runs from December to April. These months will be more expensive, so you may want to try your stay in the off months. 
  5. Would you like to have a staff or be left on your own? The islands offer both kinds of rentals for you to enjoy. 

With so many considerations, hiring an agent to help navigate the islands is your best bet. And then enjoy your time among the celebrities in the Caribbean. We sure do!
