The coastline here reflects the island itself—shaped by natural flows from the mountains to the sea. It’s dynamic, real, and ever-changing. A short drive down the coast, the shoreline transitions to classic white sand and clearer blue water, offering contrast and variety without losing proximity. The condo is designed for ease, with a full-size washer and dryer, interior storage, and two assigned parking stalls, including one covered with a private storage locker. The community includes a beachfront pool, cabana, and tropical landscaping, all within a low-density setting that feels open and unhurried.

A future lease extension could create meaningful additional investment upside beyond the current lease term; however, no lease extension is assured. Cash purchase required. Whether considered as a vacation rental investment, second home or personal residence, Unit 407 offers a unique opportunity for a buyer who understands the characteristics and potential of finite-term leasehold ownership.
