Wow, this looks like a pretty nice place.

Sorry for being paranoid but, how do i know that this place is trusted?

I mean this is a private island, and there isn't really an emergency service around. I probably can't get police or anything like that. If the captain or driver, or even the owner of the island was ill-minded then it would be easy for them to kidnap me and nobody would really notice, and ask for a ransom etc.

This is just some wild concern that i have, i know it's probably not going to happen, but still.

BTW i just noticed a huge surge in houses and places in general for sale for bitcoin. I guess this just proves that bitcoin is growing more mature.

Hi hello_good_sir,

There is 24-hour private security on the island ready to respond to any incident, as well as an alarm system in your villa. In the event of an emergency, local law enforcement would be able to respond very quickly by boat as the main downtown area, cruise ship docks, and where the police dock their boats are all directly across the small harbor on the non-ocean side of the villa. Additional information can be provided in private to establish legitimacy including past rental records, ownership records, etc. Whatever would make you feel comfortable can be provided! Finally, for the extremely paranoid or super VIP your own private security can be hired for the duration of your stay via one or two firms that work out of Nassau or provided by yourself.

The bottom line is that tourism is extremely important to the Bahamas, and high-net worth tourists such as those that would be visiting this villa are of utmost importance to the local government. On the other side of Atlantis Resort from where the villa is located is so-called "Billionaire's Row" so you are in very good company. Assurances can be provided that you will never have any issues at all, except maybe deciding which side of your body to tan next!
