Has anyone considered this in general for remote EA work? (not only Earning to give)
There are several EA Jobs (researching at Rethink Priorities, tech stuff....) that could be done remotely. So one option might be paying a salary and living expenses to these employees in a low cost country and have their own community. If they want they could even live together with like minded EAs
Some of my RP colleagues and I are considering having a contingent or informal work retreat in the Bahamas, yes.
Note that the Bahamas is close to uniquely bad from a “saving money” perspective. If you just want warm weather, fast internet, and good beaches, Thailand is probably a lot better.
Cool idea! I think my original question was more oriented to “saving EA money”, either because the employees decide to do it voluntarily, or because the EA organisation decides to “open a branch” in a low cost country where the employees are paid less but can maintain a similar standard of living (with more sunshine) while keeping the quality and quantity of their work.
I am considering the option of working on an EA-related full-time project that I will start in December in part remotely as a digital-nomad, especially in order to know people from other EA communities mainly all around Europe.

It’s a more America-friendly time zone though.
Sure but so are other Caribbean countries, and for that matter, Florida.
