Massive changes are happening at Baymahni

What started as a 14-room boutique resort is now growing into something much bigger — 40 keys, 35 private estates, and a vision that’s finally coming to life.

In this update, I’m walking through what’s next for the resort, and also sharing something important I’ve learned along the way:
👉 If you own land — or plan to — it’s not just about what’s on it now, it’s about what it could be.
Maximizing land value takes vision, strategy, and sometimes... a leap.

If you’ve been following the journey, this one means a lot.

A few years ago, I rented a boat while on vacation in Exuma. That one rental turned into a real friendship—and eventually a partnership.Today, that same boat is restored and now part of the Baymahni Resort fleet. And Rodney? He’s our builder and a key part of the team.You never know where a single moment can lead. 🚤🌴 Link to full story here: https://youtu.be/qvfXFxiXC8I?si=CF9UAyNFn_ZjcG2u

Full circle moment. 🚤🌴

A few years ago, I came to Exuma on a family vacation and rented this little Boston Whaler from a guy named Rodney who owned a local boat rental business. That conversation sparked a friendship… and eventually led to a partnership that would change both of our lives.

Today, that same boat is fully restored and officially part of the Baymahni Resort fleet. And Rodney? He’s not just the guy who rented me a boat, he’s now the builder and a partner on this incredible project we’re developing in Exuma.

You never know where one phone call, or one $250 rental, can take you.

This spot went from dream vacation home… to income producing property.

I’ve been coming to The Bahamas with my family for years, and every time we leave, we’re already dreaming about the next trip back. There’s truly no place like it in the world.

Some of our best memories have been made here, exploring the island with the people we love. Exuma means everything to us, and sharing it with others has become a meaningful part of my journey. Can’t wait to show you more of why we keep coming back!🏝️🇧🇸
