Sababbaticals, Slow Travel & Bleisure – Albert & Michael – Saba Island Properties

Sababbatical, Slow Travel and Bleisure - Albert & Michael - Saba Island Properties

 

The world of travel is changing. People aren’t just seeking destinations anymore—they’re searching for transformation. Whether you call it a Sababbatical (our favorite coined term!), Slow travel, or Bleisure, the Caribbean island of Saba embodies everything modern travelers crave.

What’s a Sababbatical?

It’s more than a vacation. It’s a breakaway location sabbatical where you relax, refresh, and regroup. Imagine a place of liberty for your soul, where peace settles into your mind and heart. Here on Saba, you’re surrounded by breathtaking nature, world-class diving, and trails that wind through cloud forests. You step away from crowds and cities, working remotely while regenerating your creativity and building new ideas.

Picture yourself sipping morning coffee as mist rolls off Mount Scenery, the only sound being tree frogs and your own thoughts for the first time in months. You arrive burned out, disconnected, creatively blocked. You leave restored, inspired, reconnected to what matters.

Saba has quietly become an artists’ colony for writers, painters, photographers, dancers, and health enthusiasts. It’s where you refocus on personal values—yourself, your family, your friends, your dreams.

The Art of Slow Travel

Slow travel rejects the frantic pace of modern tourism. It’s not about speeding through several cities in one weekend or standing in endless lines with masses of people. Instead, it’s the personal choice to experience one destination deeply, letting it thoroughly affect you.

On Saba, slow travel means self-care with intent. You move leisurely, connecting authentically with people, land, and environment. You immerse yourself in our customs, history, and daily rituals. You limit technology and embrace the unhurried rhythm of island life. You become curious. You discover opportunities. You’re surprised by what you find.

Here’s the truth: you deserve this. The emails can wait. This is travel that positively impacts both visitor and destination—where hospitality isn’t a transaction but a shared experience.

Bleisure: The Best of Both Worlds

Extending your business trip with extra days of relaxation? That’s Bleisure, and Saba makes it effortless. Imagine wrapping up your remote meetings, then stepping outside to dive pristine reefs or hike volcanic peaks. Your commute becomes a sunset walk. Your office has ocean views and gorgeous fresh tropical breezes with sudden fresh rain.

Discover Your Sabatude

When you arrive on Saba, something shifts. We call it Sabatude—a healthy, positive state of mind and heart. It’s attitude, magnitude, fortitude, aptitude, and gratitude all at once. Gratitude for Saba’s untouched beauty, for genuine connections with people, and for life itself. This is what happens when you slow down enough to remember who you were before life got so busy.

Why Saba Fills It All In

Known as “The Unspoiled Queen,” Saba delivers exceptional, breathtaking experiences within its five square miles. Our diverse, welcoming culture creates genuine connections. There are no crowds, no traffic, no stress—just pure extreme Caribbean beauty untouched by mass tourism.

Whether you’re seeking a Sababbatical to rediscover yourself, embracing slow travel to connect meaningfully, or blending business with leisure, Saba offers an adventure not to be missed.

Come find your Sabatude. Come home to Saba.

Why Saba?

After living and working in New York City for 40+ years I leaped right out of the rat race of corporate America; leaving behind the relentless stress and competition that was wasting me; to rediscover what really matters to me in life.

We went looking for a new home all over the world - the Azores, the Maldives, France, Italy, Spain, Morocco, Malta, the Caribbean and by pure luck, found Saba.

Saba gives me peace, joy, freedom and a community where I feel I belong. People are respected here; living free and open, in the heart of deep nature and incredible beauty. It's a remarkable change.

The work we do enables us to care about other people. Helping them find a new home with practical empathy for their needs and dreams. It's an emotional investment. To listen. To understand. It's work that matters to us. Work we're proud of.

Maybe you have similar yearnings for change. Wanting a better way to live.
A place where you feel at home, with yourself and with the world.

You might just be looking for a new spot to vacation. Unique. Unknown. Crowd-less. Safe. Friendly.... Hello Saba.

Or... you're already hooked on Saba and keep coming back year after year because you love it! Booking your favorite hotel and room or renting a Saba cottage or villa.

Or... Saba's lifestyle makes you dream of a bigger change. A more personal connection to this exclusive, wonder of an island. Something lasting. Just yours and investing in a home is fixed in your mind and heart.

Feel free to email me and let's find out exactly what you want and see - Is the Caribbean island of Saba right for you? Let's make those thoughts and wishes a reality and then... they won't be thoughts and wishes anymore.

I look forward to saying to you one day --'Welcome home!
Be it for a week or... a lifetime.
