Discover your island paradise today at Rum Cay - The Ultimate destination
The 900-acre site for Rum Cay Resort Marina is an untouched canvas awaiting its rightful place in history. The island's unique topography includes several rolling hills rising to about 130 feet, creating a picturesque viewpoint for all who visit. Of course, we weren't the first to discover this magnificent location.
Christopher Columbus, on his maiden voyage to the New World in 1492, made his first landfall on San Salvador, located 20 miles northeast of Rum Cay. The famed navigator later discovered Rum Cay originally named Mamana by the local Lucayan Indians and named it Santa Maria de la Concepcion. The island's current name was derived from a rum-laden sailing ship that wrecked upon its shores. Cotton Field Point, the second highest point on the island, offers a glimpse into the past and future. Once the home of kindly pirates, many have reached this special place.
In the 1700s, Rum Cay was a popular refuge for American Loyalist farmers, who grew cotton, pineapples and sisal on their plantations. As the 20th century approached, Rum Cay developed into a major salt exporter and center for horse and cattle breeding in The Bahamas.
Evidence of Rum Cay's history has remained relatively untouched for centuries. The remains of Loyalist plantations remain hidden in the heart of the island, although stone-wall plantation boundaries peep through the foliage and undergrowth. The original salt beds are still visible in Rum Cay's Salt Pond. To this day glass bottles, ceramics, tools and other artifacts from the early settlements can be found on plantation sites.
The HMS Conqueror is another of Rum Cay's preserved treasures. The British Man O' War ship, the Conqueror sank in 1861 off the south shore of the island. All 1,400 hands miraculously survived. Known as the "Underwater Museum Of The Bahamas," the wreck is a popular dive spot. Adventuresome divers can still find the shaft, anchor chains and hawser holes in 30 feet of water in a staghorn gully near the breaking reef.
SURFING
Many of the world's surf aficionados already know it's here, but they want to keep it all to themselves. Grab a board and catch your wave to enjoy an unforgettable ride through the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean. Rum Cay truly offers one of the best places to surf along the northeast shore of the island. The breaks along the coast are at their peak from the fall to the spring. Need a private surf lesson or guide for the day? Rum Cay Resort Marina can make it happen.
FISHING
Many say it's the best you'll find anywhere, and the world-record catches just off our shoreline certainly back up that claim. Within minutes of the Rum Cay Resort Marina, you'll approach the wall of the continental shelf, with a dramatic drop to over 3,000 ft. This is the ultimate spot for fishing in The Bahamas. You'll experience an adrenaline high like no other when you hook into such massive game fish as the elusive marlin, hard-hitting wahoo, majestic sailfish, mahi-mahi, and the biggest yellow-fin tuna you'll find anywhere. If fly-fishing is more your style, you will truly enjoy bone fishing in The Bahamas along the salt pond flats of Rum Cay.

Rum Cay FAQs
COMMUNITY INFORMATION
What is the concept of the development?
Rum Cay was Christopher Columbus' second landfall in the New World and he named the island Santa Maria de la Concepcion. This inspired the development team to create the concept of a Spanish style coastal village. Port Santa Maria, the village community that will serve as the centre of activity in the resort, will bring to life a Castilian village that we imagine could have evolved in the beautiful Caribbean setting, which is Rum Cay.
Interspersed with history and ambience will be a luxurious resort community, personifying "barefoot elegance" while providing residents and visitors with facilities and amenities designed to provide opportunities to relax, unwind, as well as to experience the active lifestyle for which Rum Cay is well known.
When will the first phase be completed?
The mega yacht, Blue Flag standard marina will be completed in early 2008. The Residences at Port Santa Maria are scheduled for completion shortly thereafter.
When will the resort be completed?
The resort is scheduled for completion in 2010, marked by the opening of the Rock Resorts hotel.
How big is the entire resort?
The property on which the resort is situated is approximately 900 acres in size. Residences and amenities will be constructed with low density, utilizing only one-third of the overall parcel, preserving the pristine, natural beauty of this innocent island, both above and below the water.
What facilities will be available?
To provide residents and visitors with an active yet luxurious experience, the Resort will offer a selection of active pursuits such as fishing, boating and other water-based activities.
Visitors to Rum Cay will experience the casual elegance for which Rock Resorts is known within the 100-room hotel that will overlook the ocean with 270-degree views from Cotton Field Point. The resort will feature a signature Avanyu Spa with pool and fitness centre. Port Santa Maria will provide further opportunities for dining and shopping, among other activities. Departing from within the resort, visitors will be provided opportunities to experience a variety of other adventures, including expeditions to ecological sanctuaries on uninhabited islands, bird watching, and exploring caves with Lucayan Indian painting, among other activities.

Ten minutes at the most from jet to jetty.
RESIDENCES AT PORT SANTA MARIA
What size residences are available?
The Residences at Port Santa Maria will initially offer 7 different floor plans, including 2 and 3 bedroom configurations. Floor plans range from 1,275 square feet to over 1,876 square feet of air-conditioned living space.
What is the pricing?
Prices start in the high US$900's and go to over US$2 million.
Is there a Home Owner's Association?

Can the title be transferred?
Yes, there is an easy transfer of title as the properties are fee simple/freehold.
Will title insurance be provided?
Yes, purchasers will be able to obtain title insurance through a prominent American title insurance provider.
How would I acquire hurricane and homeowner's insurance?
Purchasers will be given recommendations for local Bahamian insurance firms. The process for obtaining insurance is similar to that which is common in the USA.
What types of mortgages are available?
Banks in the Bahamas routinely offer mortgages to international buyers and it is a very routine procedure.
However, to make the process even more streamlined for North American buyers, we are planning on entering into an arrangement with Wachovia Securities to offer US style mortgages.
Can I re-sell my property?
Once the unit is complete, you will be able to sell your property. The terms of such re-sale will be addressed in the definitive sale agreements.
Do I need to furnish my apartment?
You will have the option of taking a furniture package (to be arranged by our interior design firm), which will be delivered and set-up in your condo. Should you wish to furnish your own condo, we would be happy to assist with logistical planning.
Will a unit owner own any part of the resort beyond an interest in an individual condo unit?
Each owner interest will be limited to the ownership of their individual unit and a non-exclusive proportional share of the condominium common property and limited common property.
How will a unit owner be assured access to resort amenities?
Each owner, through their membership in the condominium association and the Rum Cay Club, will be entitled to use all non-private amenities within the resort, including but not limited to the resort hotel. Certain private membership clubs will be accessible on a fee basis at specified times.
What other expenses will be incurred in connection with ownership of the unit?
The unit owner is responsible for all expenses incurred in connection with the unit, such as property taxes (where they may occur), utilities, insurance (that which is not covered by HOA dues), additional condominium association assessments, and owner debt service, among others. There will also be additional charges should the owner require optional services such as housekeeping, gardening etc.
How are environmental impacts addressed?
As part of the approval process required in the Bahamas, we have completed an Environmental Impact Assessment of the site. This investigation evaluates the potential impacts of a proposed development. The resulting report placed emphasis on issues related to land use, sensitive habitats (including mangroves and inland ponds, which are breeding grounds for wildlife) and marine environments, among other areas. The Impact Assessment recommended a variety of ways in which the developer could mitigate its effect on the environment and these were incorporated into the design plans.
At the Rum Cay Resort Marina, we are committed to preserving the natural environment, both above and below the water. We will be creating the first nature preserves on the island to protect local and transient wildlife, such as the abundant bird population and the teeming array of fish, which populate the surrounding waters. To further protect the coastline and the land itself from erosion, we are undertaking to remove alien plant species and to re-vegetate with local varieties. As the marine environment is so important to the development, we have undertaken to make our marina adhere to Blue Flag standards. This is a voluntary code of conduct, which requires high standards of care for the environment.
