Is this a good investment?
For capital appreciation, yesultra-luxury branded residences historically appreciate 3–5% annually. For rental yield, nogross yields are 3–4%, net yields 2–3.5% after service charges. This is a trophy asset, not a yield play. Buy for lifestyle, brand prestige and modest appreciation.
Can I rent short-term?
Short-term rental policies depend on your purchase agreement. Many units are held for long-term premium rentals to expatriate families. Verify restrictions with the developer. Short-term tourism rentals may be restricted to preserve ultra-luxury positioning.
Is the single island access really an issue?
