Retiring in Paradise: Why Expats Choose Casa Linda’s Dominican Republic Luxury Villas

Retiring in Paradise: Why Expats Choose Casa Linda’s Dominican Republic Luxury Villas

Apr 26, 2024 | Dominican Republic Retirement, Dominican Republic Villas, Expat Life, News

It’s a significant decision to pack up your life and move to another country! At Casa Linda, we hear a lot from potential clients who have concerns about moving abroad to a very different country. For over 40 years, Casa Linda has developed a thriving community of expats from Canada, the United States, and Europe!

Casa Linda is a beloved and highly respected builder of modern luxury villas in the Dominican Republic! Below, we will discuss the top reasons why retired expats choose Casa Linda over any other DR community builder.

Steady & Rapidly Growing Economy

There is a common misconception that the Dominican Republic is a poor, struggling and underdeveloped country. That cannot be further from the truth. Our small island country might have been one of the poorest Latin American countries in the mid-1960s, but much has changed in the last 60 years.

In actuality, the Dominican Republic’s economy is the steadiest and fastest growing in Latin America. The Dominican’s standard of living is approximately one-third that of the United States. That’s a marked difference from other Latin countries, whose average standard of living is typically around one-quarter of the USA.

Risk-Free Property Investment

If the Dominican continues to grow at the same rate, it’s projected that in 40 years, the DR will have an advanced economy on par with other first-world countries. Investing in a Dominican Republic luxury villa through Casa Linda is a sound investment for your current lives in 2024 and your future as well!

Casa Linda has been in business for forty years, and our community has steadily grown. What originally started as a small community has grown into a massive neighbourhood with long-standing owners. We are one of the most trusted and respected builders in all of the Dominican.

Safe Location & Secure Gated Community

If you are concerned about natural disasters living on a tropical island, there is nothing to fear. Casa Linda is located on the north coast of the Dominican, in between the beach towns of Sosúa and Cabarete. There have been no recorded hurricanes to reach the north coast of the DR— ever! You don’t have to worry about the risk of losing your villa to a rogue storm.

Casa Linda takes the safety of our owners and their families very seriously. While our community is located in a safe part of the island, Casa Linda takes extra precautions to ensure the well-being of our residents. We are a gated community with 24/7 security, providing owners immense peace of mind— especially for those who only use their villas in the winter!

Live Life Luxuriously

Life at Casa Linda is like living full-time at an all-inclusive resort, except you get to enjoy the privacy of your own home. We are proud to have a tight-knit and welcoming community of expats worldwide who cannot wait to welcome you into our fold!
