PEACE, PRIVACY, & A LUXURIOUS LIFESTYLE

urquoise waters washing over sparkling sea glass and conch shells nestled on pink sand. Coconut palms swaying in a choreographed ballet to the tune of a balmy breeze. Meticulously maintained white sand beaches so soft you’d swear you were walking on baby powder. These are moments that define life in The Bahamas. Add to this list a tax-neutral financial environment and the country’s ease-of-access, and it’s not hard to see why The Bahamas has been attracting high-net-worth individuals to its shores for many generations. “It’s not simply the crystal-clear water and year-round sun that is attractive to the world’s elite,” said George Damianos, Chief Executive Officer for Damianos Sotheby’s International Realty in Nassau. “It’s the fact that luxury homes and private islands in The Bahamas offer seclusion and security combined with the ability to stay closely connected to the world. Fort Lauderdale is only a 30-minute flight away.” According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, private air travel accounts for nearly 60 percent of the estimated 90,000 flights that fill the skies daily. By a large margin, the islands of The Bahamas top the list of destinations in the Caribbean, particularly for travelers based in the U.S. and Canada. In fact, privatefly.com says that of the top-five most frequent private jet routes, two are between Nassau and Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and Nassau and New York (Teterboro).
“It boils down to economy of time,” said Damianos. “These are individuals who don’t have time to waste standing in long security lines or waiting on commercial flight delays.” In the shadow of the COVID-19 global pandemic and the looming possibility of future quarantines, ease-of-access is becoming increasingly more desirable to the super wealthy, along with locations that are low-density and offer quarantine-friendly amenities such as private beaches, and plenty of space to roam outdoors during periods of lockdown. “We’ve seen an uptick in private island inquiries in the past couple of months,” Damianos said. “Particularly for islands in the Exuma Cays. The Exumas are one among the most spectacular places in the world with crystalclear water, hundreds of deserted beaches and islands and spectacular diving and fishing.” Damianos, who has 45 years of experience selling luxury waterfront real estate and private islands in The Bahamas, said that properties such as the 700-acre Blue Island are particularly appealing to the ultra-wealthy because they also offer private air strips.
“Savvy investors don’t mind paying a premium if it means purchasing a property that is not going to be burdensome to own,” said Damianos. “Affluent buyers want a home that is easy to take care of, easy to maintain and easy to access on a moment’s notice. They also prioritize locations that offer unique lifestyle options, absolute privacy and an array of first-class amenities, which more and more is becoming a healthy, outdoor lifestyle. Additionally, our savvy investors are oftentimes interested in establishing themselves in The Bahamas for the purpose of pursuing Economic Permanent Residency (EPR).” Economic Permanent Residency grants foreigners virtually the same rights as a native-born citizen, apart from voting rights. In The Bahamas, anyone who purchases a home valued in excess of $750,000 are eligible to apply for this status. As the leading real estate company in the country, the Damianos Sotheby’s International Realty team specializes in assisting international clients in the residency process. “As an English-speaking country with an economy pegged to the U.S. dollar, and an ever-growing number of properties with private airstrips, The Bahamas is a relatively seamless transition for investors,” said Damianos. “The country’s proximity to the U.S. also provides additional peace of mind.”

TROPIC OCEAN AIRWAYS WHERE CARRIBEAN LUXURY TAKES FLIGHT
T
ropic Ocean Airways is a large, standardized airline that just happens to land in the water. Founded in 2009 by Rob Ceravolo, Tropic Ocean Airways is committed to providing firstclass private charter and scheduled service flights throughout Florida, The Bahamas and beyond. They love what they do, and they should, just as much as you will love flying with them. In fact, once you fly to the Bahamas and the Caribbean with Tropic Ocean, which is not remotely as expensive as you might think, you’ll probably never travel to paradise another way. Clean, the highest safety rating in the industry, no lines, pre-boarded and passport stamped before you board their impeccable aircrafts. Behind what is the genius of Tropic Ocean Airways is an entrepreneur with a dream and the audacity to say what if, and to bring that dream to life. CEO Rob Ceravolo, a University of Florida alumni, was a TOPGUN Fighter Pilot in the U.S. Navy, serving as an active duty and reserve member, becoming an air combat instructor, and earning the rank of Lieutenant Commander. Ceravolo’s leadership and vision, coupled with Nick Veltre’s (COO) expertise in seaplane operations, led to the development of an award-winning seaplane company offering unmatched professionalism, dedication to safety, and guest satisfaction. Tropic Ocean Airways is the largest amphibious airline with a fleet of 13 aircrafts, and as travel to the Caribbean has now opened back up, it’s Ceravolo’s foresight, strategic maneuvering, and proactive approach that will lead to a new era, and perhaps the magical tipping point for this amazing company that was once simply a dream.
Elevated Magazines: The experience of travel for people is going to be that much more valuable as people have had the opportunity, forced as it was, to really reflect on aspects of their lives and thus both reevaluate and prioritize. You take something away and people realize how valuable it is and perhaps how it might have been taken for granted or not valued as much as it should have been. Just as with home and design and people being forced to realize there is so much more than can do with their homes by having been forced to have been in them for an extended period of time, same with travel in that now having not had it, people are going to have a heightened, and real, sense of demand in general and at an accelerated pace, and further when it comes to someone such as yourself, having one of the most powerful, exclusive, unique experiences on the planet, but further being in the Caribbean, I would think it’s an exciting time?! RC: You hit it on the head. The majority of us value experience. To design life around the idea that life is an experience and it’s something to be lived essentially. This crisis has helped people reevaluate what they really value in life. EM: Life is the experience. So how do you make each and every moment of life the experience you want it to be? That includes of course when deciding to make that trip down to the Caribbean, it’s doing it with you.
People must also think initially that traveling with Tropic Ocean is an incredibly high ticket such as most private aviation travel, while with you it’s not. RC: It’s a good point. We’re not the low-cost alternative by any means. That being said, we’re not a private jet. I equate it to a price comparison to a Delta Comfort Plus or Delta Business Class experience. It runs anywhere for a $250 ticket where you’re buying a seat to a $15,000 round trip to fly you to your mega-yacht and everything in between. It’s not a $40,000 private jet flight by any means. Especially when you think about the homeowners in the islands. The time alone that you save is a huge value. If you own a home on Kamalame Key, you board one of our flights and we pre clear you, and an hour later the plane is landing in front of your house! While you’re sitting at the seaplane base in Florida, we stamp your passport and say “Welcome to the Bahamas!” You’re sitting in a lounge in Miami and you’re already cleared into the Bahamas.

NOTORIOUS PINK
Infamous One & Scandalous Red
R
osé drinking culture has taken a forefront in leisurely and luxury lifestyles. Rosé is now synonymous with day drinking, Sunday fundays, brunch, beach life, cocktails and frosé. There is definitely a rosé culture spread far and wide across the globe and Notorious Pink Rosé is leading the charge in many innovative ways.
Grenache, the leading grape varietal at Domaine la Colombette in the south of France’s famous Languedoc region. The innovative name, packaging and luxury appeal are the creation of Notorious Wines Inc. In conjunction with the Pugibet family who have been a family of winemakers since 1890, Notorious Wines Inc. has been able to present this off-pink rosé second to none in the imported rosé space. The winemakers have used a Notorious Pink is a speciality combination of mature and ripe fruit blush cuvée made from 100% to balance acidity and sweetness for
a perfect union. Grapes from older vines are bled, while grapes from younger vines are gently pressed. After the juice has settled, the wine is cold fermented for perfection. Blush in color, Notorious Pink is enticing with pleasant under-ripe strawberry, mango, and citrus zest scent with a crisp and refreshing mineral character. Not as dry as most French rosé wines and can be enjoyed with seafood, vegetables, pastas, and poultry dishes, but easily stands on its own. Perfect for everyday enjoyment or in every season. Notorious Pink is a Double Gold Winner 50 Best Rosé Wines three years running, has won five gold medals and two “Judges Favorite” in addition to many silver medals, Scored 90+ in Tasting Panel, Wine Enthusiast 86 points. In early 2019, Notorious Wines Inc. and the Pugibet family took yet another leap into innovation in winemaking by introducing two new wine varieties in the forefront of the “sustainable” wine production process. The two new wines, Infamous Gold Cabernet Blanc and Scandalous One Cabernet Noir are hybrid wines developed from traditional European Vitis vinifera vines and crossed with other breeds for a new and innovative Vin de France offering.
The advantages of these creations include their ability to better withstand heat, drought and disease. This means few to no mildew treatments needed during growth. These grapes also tend to ripen earlier than normal, and avoid the issues of sugar levels rising out of balance with overall phenolic ripeness and increasing alcohol levels. Overall, this makes these new wines a better choice for health conscience wine drinkers seeking a reduced sulfite and reduced sugar level experience. Infamous Gold Cabernet Blanc and Scandalous One Cabernet Noir have both won the 2018 Grand Prix Innovation Awards, De La Revue, Du Vin de France. Notorious Wines Inc. offers all three of these wonderful French wines for under $20 in multiple markets across the United States. www.NotoriousPink.com
