The Retirement Home is an Idea of Mr. Ronald García, who has thought in providing a comfortable and natural place for retired people to live or spend a season in Costa Rica having a good care given by professional staff that appreciate the wisdom of elder people. This project is recently under construction and it will be available to all our guests in april 2008.

This project tries to invite retire people who do not want to stay during winter time in their country and prefer to move to a place that offers all the weather conditions to live and also require caring service to have a better life quality.

Our residents will feel the affection and politeness from our professional staff that will love to stay forever.
