Barbuda Ocean Club

What Barbuda Ocean Club does

Barbuda Ocean Club is a 900+ acre luxury private resort community located on the island of Barbuda in Antigua and Barbuda, operated as a branded community within the Discovery Land Company portfolio. The community offers world-class beach clubs, an 18-hole Tom Fazio-designed seaside links golf course, farm- and sea-to-table dining, an Outdoor Pursuits program, kiteboarding, wellness programming with personalized medical services, and curated lifestyle experiences. It serves high-net-worth families and individuals seeking an exclusive Caribbean retreat and generational vacation-home ownership.

The company's revenue model is built on two streams: one-time real estate sales of turnkey casitas, waterfront cottages, golf villas, and custom beach homesites; and recurring club memberships that grant access to the amenity portfolio. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via a dedicated real estate contact line, on-site viewings, and the company's website and Instagram channels. Pricing for both residences and memberships is not publicly disclosed. The property is supported by dedicated private-aviation infrastructure via the Burton-Nibbs International Airport FBO (6,100-foot private runway), with direct flight times of roughly 3 hours from Miami, 3 hours 45 minutes from New York, and 8 hours from London.

The operating entity is headquartered in Barbuda, employs approximately 57 people, and maintains buyer sourcing primarily across North America (USA), Europe (UK), and the broader Caribbean. There is no disclosed AI/ML capability, no funding history, no revenue disclosure, and limited public data on unit sales velocity or membership counts.
