For US & Canadian Veterans

You served. Now live well.

The Dominican Republic's North Coast gives veterans the warm climate, lower cost of living, strong community, and daily comfort you've earned. Casa Linda makes it easy to get here.

A life that fits better

Veterans from across the United States and Canada are choosing the North Coast of the Dominican Republic as their next chapter.

Sunshine every day. A cost of living that makes your pension breathe again. Excellent medical care at a fraction of North American prices. And a community where people look out for one another.

Casa Linda is home to veterans from both the US and Canada who've found exactly what they were looking for here. Talk to us; we're happy to connect you with owners who've made the move.

First-world care

Beyond veteran-specific benefits, the North Coast offers outstanding private medical care — modern hospitals, well-trained English-speaking doctors, and medical insurance at a fraction of what you pay at home.

Six reasons veterans love it here

Your money goes further

Life on the North Coast isn't about cutting corners, it's just that your money goes further than in North America.  Groceries, dining out, household services, property taxes, and healthcare all cost a fraction of what you're used to back home.

Eating out doesn't feel like a splurge. Household help is affordable enough to give you your time back. Your pension, disability, or retirement savings stop feeling tight. You live better, not smaller.

A climate that's good for the body

Cold weather is brutal on joints, old injuries, and chronic pain. The DR's warm, humid climate (averaging 82°F (28°C) year-round), can give daily relief.  Most people who move here are very surprised by how much better they feel.

Steady natural light lifts mood, boosts serotonin, and regulates sleep cycles. Veterans dealing with seasonal depression, sleep disruption, or anxiety feel real, measurable improvement.

The only good ice is in your drink.  Leave winter behind.

A community that quickly becomes home

From the moment you arrive, you'll notice it:  people wave, conversations start easily, and invitations follow quickly. Casa Linda is the kind of place where neighbours become friends.

There's always something happening - happy hours at the Chill & Grill, community events, spontaneous barbeques. The social life here isn't forced or organized to death. It just happens naturally, because the people who choose Casa Linda tend to be exactly the kind of people you'd choose to spend time with.  You'll fit right in.

Beaches for every mood

Sosúa Bay is calm, clear, and warm: a protected cove where you can float, snorkel, or just sit waist-deep and decompress. Its natural curve blocks big waves, making it accessible regardless of swimming ability or old injuries.

Cabarete Beach is long, wide, and one of the world's best water-sports beaches. Walk for miles, paddleboard, have lunch with your feet in the sand, or sit under a palm tree with a cold Presidente beer. Quieter spots like Playa Alicia and Playa Chiquita offer postcard-perfect privacy.  And a bit further down the road you'll find Playa Grande and many more beaches to discover.

Never a dull day

The North Coast gives you far more to do than beaches alone. Local markets, seaside restaurants, cooking classes, language lessons, live music, cigar lounges, and yoga sessions overlooking the ocean. Dominican festivals, concerts, baseball, and community gatherings. Waterfalls, horseback riding, hiking trails, and guided eco-tours.

Whether you want adventure, culture, relaxation, or simple everyday fun; there's always something happening. Every day can feel different if you want it to.

In their own words

“It's been unbelievable - I honestly wish I had made this move 30 or 40 years ago. Life here is so different, such a better quality of life.”
