Abode Abroad

Antigua’s luxury landscape is entering a new chapter as The Residences at Nikki Beach Resort & Spa Antigua unveils new visuals and details ahead of its official sales launch in Autumn 2026.

While domestic Greek buyers still represent the single largest active segment at 18.8% of total luxury enquiries, the narrative of the year is the dramatic surge in British capital.

Between 2023 and 2024, elevated borrowing costs and geopolitical uncertainty cooled global transactions. Yet, the underlying fundamentals of the French prime market remained unshaken.

Whether its chasing rental income, a second passport, a retirement base, or simply a place to escape, five Caribbean islands are seeing particularly fast-moving demand from overseas buyers right now.

The FPP attributes this historic surge to warmer summers and a fundamental shift in the luxury market, where affluent consumers increasingly favour home-centric comforts over long-haul travel.
