It began in 2000, with a vision for a new kind of luxury Caribbean community.
The Caribbean is full of stunning, ultra-luxe resorts for the wealthy. They dot St. Barts, the Bahamas, Turks and Caicos, the Cayman Islands…
Often these communities are kept relatively small, to maintain exclusivity. And they tend to have a niche, say golf or wellness or sailing. They focus on one or two specialty activities of the ultra-rich.
But this new community, named Cap Cana, was designed to be something different…
Cap Cana has a coastline to rival any in the Caribbean…any in the world…with glistening white-sand beaches and crystal-clear, turquoise waters.
Set on 30,000 acres (an area roughly the same size as Boston), Cap Cana was envisioned as a new city on the Caribbean Sea.
This would be an ultra-luxury destination with fine dining, golf, sailing, yachting, diving, sports fishing…a place with marinas, shopping, schools and medical facilities…an expansive, self-contained city-state.
Over the past two and a half decades, billions of dollars have been spend to realize this vision.
What’s been achieved is remarkable…
In Cap Cana today, there are 72 miles of paved roads and 100 miles of fiber-optic cable… It’s home to the Caribbean’s largest waterpark and its largest inland marina.
There’s a church, a fast-growing school, and a university with over 25 nationalities enrolled. You’ll find high-end resorts, a Jack Nicklaus-signature golf course, a fire station, medical and veterinary clinics, a state-of-the-art equestrian center, convention centers, beach clubs, dozens of restaurants…
And here’s the thing: This is just Phase 1.
The first phase of Cap Cana is coming to an end, but so much more is planned, including two more Jack Nicklaus golf courses and a $500 million Barcelona-inspired shopping street leading down to the best beach in Cap Cana that’s expected to include art galleries, boutiques, cafés…
In other words, Cap Cana is already one of the most luxurious destinations in the Caribbean…and what comes next is set to be even more exciting.
This is an incredible opportunity…
My team have scouted Cap Cana numerous times. I visited twice in 2022. My team were back several times last year and again this year, digging into every corner of this city-state.
And these efforts have paid off…
I’ve found an incredible, exclusive off-market deal here for members of my Real Estate Trend Alert group. More on that in a moment, but first let’s explore this community with photos that my team took when we had boots on the ground there.
It’s your private tour of Cap Cana…
A photo I snapped while scouting Cap Cana. My team has put boots on the ground here on numerous occasions over the past three years.
The only place to start in Cap Cana is at the beach.
Cap Cana has over three miles of white-sand beaches and miles more of coastline. My favorite among the many beaches here is Juanillo.
This place is special…
Our RETA photographer Alan Kennedy snapped this shot of Juanillo Beach during a scouting trip last year (he also took the other Cap Cana shots below).
Just in front of the beach sits Juanillo Beach Club…an amazing place to grab a soda, coffee, or cocktail and soak up the serene sea views…
The views of the coast from Juanillo Beach Club are epic. This is among the most idyllic beaches I’ve seen anywhere…
To the north of Juanillo lies the Cap Cana marina, one of the largest in the region.
This inland protected harbor has over 150 slips accommodating up to 250-foot yachts. You’ll also find stores and restaurants.
