Is your family taking the leap and planning a move to the Dominican Republic? We’re excited to welcome you to this vibrant, friendly country! Cabarete, DR, is a beautiful, welcoming town to call home, so if you’d like to become an expat, make the move with Casa Linda!
Moving to our enclosed community will allow you to invest in real estate in the Dominican Republic, build connections with fellow expats, and enjoy all the benefits of island living. Here are just a few things your family can look forward to when you arrive in Cabarete.
Safe, Summer Weather Year-Round
If you’re moving to the Dominican Republic, you’re undoubtedly a hot-weather person. In the DR, you can look forward to summer conditions all year round and say goodbye to your “winter wardrobe!”
While friends and family back in North America will be bundling up in coats and blankets come the winter, you’ll be enjoying the sand, sun, and surf in the DR's peak watersports season.
Our tropical climate averages about 78.8°F (26°C) for the air temperature and 80.6°F (27°C) in the water, making shorts, t-shirts, skirts, and sundresses your new go-to wardrobe!
You may wonder: “Doesn’t a tropical climate usually get hurricanes?” If you’re moving to the Cabarete area (where our Casa Linda community is located), you’ll be in a hurricane-free zone! Geographic conditions like the Mona Passage currents, vast mountain ranges, and shallow reefs keep our side of this beautiful country safe from the dangers of hurricane season!
A Vibrant Culture
With our island's weather comes our vibrant island culture! Combining African, Taino, and European influences, the Dominican Republic offers a unique variety of music, dance, cuisine, art, architecture, and traditions that you and your family won’t want to miss out on!
Watersports and outdoor activities are also a big part of our day-to-day culture, from surfing to baseball. Expats who enjoy exercise and physical activity will never run out of things to do around the island.
Accessible Services for Expats
The Dominican Republic not only welcomes but also encourages expats to move to our country! To help make North Americans feel more at home, our government and local communities offer a number of services to encourage newcomers to stay long-term. If you have an emergency or issue that requires assistance from your home country, Santo Domingo has consulates for Canada and the US and a second Canadian consulate in Puerto Plata.
The DR government’s residency process is simple and approachable, which has enabled many expats to enter our country with little hassle. Our healthcare plans are also affordable, averaging around $1,600/year for a couple. You can find a variety of healthcare services that you can get at home, like naturopathy, massage, and physical therapy.
If you’re moving with children, Cabarete also has excellent international schools that follow Canadian and American curriculum standards, so you don’t have to default to homeschooling; your kids can get an excellent education with well-qualified, English-speaking teachers on the island!
Plenty of Opportunities to Meet People
The DR is a very friendly and social country, and we welcome North American expats with open arms! There are plenty of opportunities to meet locals and expats in our numerous clubs and social groups, at local events, within gated communities, and more.
If you’d like to get to know other fellow expats and their families, moving into a gated community like Casa Linda is a great way to build your own community with others who have managed a smooth transition to island life.
At Casa Linda, we offer a variety of amenities where families can get to know each other better, including our on-site restaurant, waterpark, playground, sports facilities, and our Cabarete Beach Club. We also host a number of community events, both on-site and around Cabarete, to give residents a chance to connect!
Affordable Real Estate
One of the major draws to the DR is our affordable real estate prices compared to Canada and the US. At Casa Linda, you can get a villa or townhouse for as low as $199,700 USD.
All of our villas are fully customizable and come with in-ground pools. We also offer housekeeping and landscaping services to benefit busy families and working professionals. You can enjoy these luxuries for a quarter of the price you’d have to pay in North America!
