Vacations 4 America

If you enjoy living in the mountains and a setting like a national park, Panama may be the place for you. A new development offers trails that bring you eye-to-eye with sloths and monkeys, and sightings of yellow frogs and exotic birds, and sites for homes tucked away among hills and valleys. This new paradise is named Altos del Maria. Homes in the development offer picturesque vistas of waterfalls and lakes, volcanic mountains, and two oceans.

Altos del Maria is a 7000+ acre, secure, gated mountain community being developed for residential home sales. The developers have made sure all the comforts of urban life are there: ample water and electricity, cell and land-line phone service, satellite TV, Internet service, golf courses, swimming pools, and a heliport for starters. You will also find good roads that take you easily to and from Panama City, which is an hour and a half away. Closer by are the townships of Bejuco and Sora. It is also an easy drive to wonderful, warm beaches should you need to escape the cool mountains.

Most people think of the canal or a hat when they hear Panama. Panamanian locals have several versions of where the word Panama originated. Some say indigenous peoples named the land after a common tree. Others say the word means either many butterflies or many fish. All versions seem appropriate. The fact that the country holds vast expanses of unspoiled nature feels like a secret someone has been keeping.

The Panama Canal has made the US and Panama long-time partners, so many Panamanians speak English in addition to their native Spanish. Panamanians are friendly to newcomers. The US dollar is accepted as legal tinder in Panama and enjoys a one-to-one exchange rate. And your dollar stretches pretty far in Panama compared to US prices. A recent report states that one can retire very nicely on twelve-hundred US dollars a month.

Visitors find all the glitter and attraction of large cities in Panama City. Behind its beauty and sophistication, you will find entertainment, fine restaurants, and modern medical care. The ongoing US-Panama Canal relationship keeps the economy stable, which is assured with the latest expansion project. Called the Third Set of Locks, the project promises to double the capacity of the canal and increase trade.

The Panamanian government pensionado program provides great retirement perks. Retirees receive discounts on housing, medicines, entertainment, and travel. To receive the benefits, a pensionado application and visa must be secured from non-Panamanians. If you do not sign up for the pensionado program, you can still retire in Altos del Maria.

Panama is the end of Central America, right before Columbia in South America. Altos del Maria is in the same narrow section of Panama as Panama City, but on the west side. The elevation of the development ranges from 1,476 to 3,608 feet above sea level. Some areas of Altos del Maria allow vistas of both the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. The temperature is an ever-moderate 75 degrees F.

Whether you dream of building your own home or prefer to find a bungalow ready to move into, the developers at Altos del Maria can accommodate you. Big lot, small lot, high elevation or low, it is your choice.
