Your new vacation home is waiting for you in San Juan del Sur
Monday, February 23rd, 2009Own a fully furnished, fully landscaped home with inspired architectural design for a single all-inclusive price. A truly turnkey experience where everything is taken care of.
This world class resort has been able to maintain a historical occupancy rate of between 70-80% for the past 4 years. Of all the development communities in San Juan del Sur, this community is the farthest along and has set the bar for others up and coming. Each unit is individually owned while professionally managed and maintained by the hotel.
The profits from the luxury resort are used to fund the A. Jean Brugger Charitable Foundation. This is best practice social responsibility – where a social and financial mission are so inter-twined to be inseparable. Where else can you sip a Margarita with a view like the one above of the pool at Bistro la Canoa knowing that you are helping make Nicaragua a better place?

Mulling over whether Nicaragua is right for you?
Saturday, February 14th, 2009
Are you curious about Nicaragua? Maybe you’ve heard some stories about the empty surf breaks, the great fishing, the eco-adventures or historic colonial towns?
Life is good for many people living abroad. Often mentioned are things like a lower cost of living, more affordable real estate, the experience of a new culture, cheaper healthcare and warmer weather.
And, for many, moving abroad is an opportunity for reinvention and a way to escape from the drudgery of 9-5 living.
Still, living overseas is not for everyone. The best way to determine whether Nicaragua is right for you is to come and experience it first hand.
We’ve got the contacts, we know the destinations, we’ve toured every inch of the country and we’re delighted to bring you the best the country has to offer. Contact us for a Nicaragua vacation package just for you.
