The ownership structure provides flexibility for personal use, rental income, or resale opportunities.

Property management services ensure residences maintain their value and condition whether owners are in residence or traveling.

Location Advantages

The strategic location just 30 minutes from San Juan International Airport provides convenient access for international owners and guests. The proximity to San Juan's cultural attractions, dining, and business centers offers the best of both worlds - secluded luxury with urban accessibility. The Bahia Beach location also provides easy access to other popular Puerto Rico destinations including Dorado and the eastern coast.

The natural setting within a protected nature reserve ensures long-term environmental preservation and exclusivity that cannot be replicated in more developed areas.

Comparison with Previous St. Regis Operations

The transition from St. Regis Bahia Beach to Four Seasons represents a significant upgrade in amenities and services. While the St. Regis established Bahia Beach as a luxury destination, Four Seasons brings enhanced global recognition and expanded service offerings. The Meyer Davis interior redesign refreshes common areas and amenities while respecting the natural beauty that made the location special.

Current market conditions favor the Four Seasons brand positioning, with strong demand from buyers seeking established luxury hospitality management. The continuity of location combined with enhanced amenities creates compelling value for prospective residents.

Enhanced Amenities and Services

Four Seasons introduces several new amenities not available during the St. Regis era. Expanded spa facilities, additional dining options, and enhanced concierge services reflect the brand's commitment to exceeding guest and resident expectations. The golf course receives improvements while maintaining its challenging layout and spectacular ocean views.

The private club atmosphere becomes more exclusive with Four Seasons management, creating a more intimate community feel among residents and guests.

Investment Continuity

Previous St. Regis Bahia Beach property values provide a foundation for Four Seasons pricing, with the brand upgrade supporting premium positioning. The established infrastructure reduces development risk while the Four Seasons reputation attracts a broader international buyer base. Market data suggests strong appreciation potential as the Four Seasons brand commands higher values than predecessor operations.

The seamless transition maintains property values while positioning for future growth as the Four Seasons brand establishes its Puerto Rico presence.
