Damn, that looks like the sterile hell that I always try to avoid whenever I travel. I have never been on a cruise ship for the same reason. Nor would I ever live in a gated community. I enjoy the AirBNB experience.Ps CHÂTEAU DES PALMIERS this is the kind of real estate you can find there
I have no idea, but...Anyone knows why Trump decided to build that villa in St. Martin?
topless sun bathing is frequently seen. Some tourists come to Sint Maarten / Saint-Martin because there are clothing optional beaches & resorts on the island
This is a good thing but I’m pretty sure that’s not the reason. there must have been a solid financial/tax reason for the Donald to build that monstrosity.
Trump invests in many places, he setup a nice op in the Dominican Republic where hundreds of investors joined with not excellent results (for them)…Can't say about Trump but BUSH bought 40k ha in Paraguay Chaco .
Also Trump invested there in 2013
Don't you need to have lived there for 5 years for tax benefits? I think the first 5 years you are taxed like in France.I know quite well these part of caribbean islands (lived there some years).
St Barth: 100% tax heaven, 100% safe (you can keep your keys on your car), expensive, very tiny.
SXM french part: some tax advantages comparing to France. Cheaper than dutch part.
French islands have the advantage of the access to french banking system.
SXM dutch part: not seen any tax advantages (high taxes). few banks.
SXM in general: only 100 km2, high criminality, low services.
Anguilla: 100% tax heaven. rasta lifestyle. very low services and activities.
I would have no doubts for a 3 weeks vacation.Ps CHÂTEAU DES PALMIERS this is the kind of real estate you can find there
If you are not French and not from France and come to live in Saint Barth (for example you are from Germany) so what country resident you are during these 5 years then?In St-Barth and SXM (french), yes, if you come from France. You remain french tax resident during 5 years.
