What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Rodney Bay?

"A typical expat home or apartment in Rodney Bay, is often a luxurious and spacious property with modern amenities. These homes usually have multiple bedrooms and bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and a large living area. They often feature stunning views of the Caribbean Sea or the surrounding tropical landscape. Many homes also have private pools, outdoor patios, and lush gardens. The interiors are typically designed with a blend of Caribbean and contemporary styles, featuring high ceilings, large windows, and open floor plans to allow natural light and fresh air. Some properties may also have additional amenities like a home office, a gym, or a guest house. The homes are usually located within gated communities or residential areas that offer security and privacy. They are also conveniently located close to local amenities such as shops, restaurants, and beaches," said another expat in Rodney Bay, Saint Lucia.

"It depends on the area and the owner. Some may not have AC or city water or mosquito screens. Some unfurnished. Locals prefer to rent unfurnished to keep prices down. There are several renters in my neighborhood - there are Americans that rent apartments and some that are locals that rent. Prices all all over the place from in the thousands USD for luxury apartments in an expensive area to the low hundreds in USD in lower income areas. I rented my 1 BR apartment that had AC and was newly fully furnished and that only fetched $400 USD a month (city water; no other utilities) because it was not in the "heart of town"," wrote a member who made the move to Saint Lucia.
