Prince’s Turks and Caicos Villa Sold
By the Caribbean Journal staff
The Turks and Caicos villa formerly owned by music legend Prince has been sold.
The sprawling estate in Turks and Caicos’s Turtle Tail area in Providenciales has been sold for $10.8 million, according to Turks and Caicos Sotheby’s International Realty, which had the listing on the property.
The brokerage said the new (unnamed) owner has “has vacationed in the Turks & Caicos Islands for years as a family and wanted to have a compound large enough to host extended family.”
The property, which was listed at the end of December for $11.8 million, is now known as Emara Estate.
And it’s not intended as simply a private home — it is very much a rental destination.
The new Emara Estate website calls it “Your Private Island Getaway,” including a way to reserve a stay at the property.
“The property feels like its own private island,” the new owners said in a statement. “Emara Estate will be available as a highly exclusive rental destination, boasting private beachfront areas, exceptional elevated views, and a dock area which is a watersports enthusiast’s dream, and ideal for celebrating milestone and special events.”
The six-bedroom, six-bathroom, 9,610-square-foot oceanfront estate is set on a 5.74-acre lot.
It was long the Caribbean hideaway for Prince, who passed away in 2016.

The property has everything from two private beaches to a 200-foot personal dock — along with a purple driveway.
It’s set 40 feet above sea level.
