Port Elysium's hospitality strategy integrates three hotels (a principal five-star, and two four-star properties) with branded residences across the estate.
Each hotel anchors a themed residential precinct. Port Elysium intends to seek hotel status under the Hotels Encouragement Act for these operations, so that branded homes attached to them and let through their rental programmes can share in hotel-regime tax treatment, subject to Government approval.
The programme is led by specialist master-planning, design and hospitality-operations partners.

The Hotels Encouragement Act is a Bahamian law that lowers the cost of building, equipping and refurbishing hotels. By agreement with the Minister, a qualifying hotel can receive customs-duty relief on its construction materials, equipment and furnishings, ten years' exemption from real property tax from opening and ten more at a capped basis, and twenty years' protection against specified direct taxes.
On a Family Island such as Long Island, a hotel can qualify with as few as five bedrooms. Alongside the hotels, Port Elysium therefore intends to seek hotel status for facilities that provide accommodation, so that each can support branded homes attached to it:
Clubhouse accommodation with branded golf homes attached.
Club accommodation with branded homes attached.
Club accommodation with branded country homes attached.
Recovery accommodation for visiting patients and their families.
Around 200–300 branded homes are being explored across several partners, and no brands have been appointed. No hotel permission or concession agreement is yet in place; each is subject to Government approval. See Branded Residences.
