FINDING YOUR LAND & CHANGING YOUR LIFESTYLE

It looks like the Rio Dulce has finally been “discovered”.  Freedom-seeking self-starters are looking for a peaceful, sensible alternative to retirement in industrialized nations as life there becomes increasingly dangerous, expensive, polluted and stressful.

Purchasing waterfront land in the Rio, and building your dock and house can be surprisingly affordable.  Or, renting a tropical vacation get-away may be what you are looking for.  We are now familiar with legal compliance and government bureaus, as well as local agents and suppliers, and we are ready to help you every step of the way.

Guatemala has a stable government recently devoted to promoting eco-tourism, improving infrastructure and inviting foreign investment.  See VisitGuatemala.com.

For us, it is the perfect base for cruising the Caribbean and Central America while staying safe from hurricanes year-round.  We have found a tranquil paradise here by the river among the forest and wildlife and our expanding circle of Guatemalan friends.

NEW HOME CONSTRUCTION

Design your own vacation hide-away home, in an exciting global cruising community, at a fraction of U.S. prices -- dock, boat & beach included.  If you plan for a simple cottage or a grand hacienda, consider natural light, prevailing winds and cooling effects, the proven methods to live comfortably and safely in the tropics.

We use all the best quality modern materials together with ancient local knowledge to effectively maintain the natural environment.  For example, our conical palapa style roof, woven from 3,000 palm fronds is the ultimate in sun and rain protection, Mayan style. 

With a pioneering spirit and creative vision, you too could establish a serene and rewarding water-based lifestyle in fascinating Guatemala.
