For Sale 🌺
Some people dream of retiring to a tropical island with a private beach and lagoon, amazing snorkeling and diving, catching fresh fish right off their own dock, palm trees swaying in the breeze.
Some people dream of being in a quiet paradise with a rainforest jungle and waterfall out their back door, exotic birds chirping in the lush green surrounding their airy home, hiking trails and lots of adventurous kayaking.
Some people dream of running a small eco resort, being off the grid, living off island fruit trees in their yard, making their own chocolate from their private cacao plantation, and hosting like-minded guests from around the world in one of several well-constructed villas; a sort of “fantasy island” experience.
Some people dream of acquiring a large plot of buildable land and developing it or selling off pieces to recoup their investment, essentially living for free in a modernized home while turning the remainder of their raw land into a small community of vacation homes and/or year-round expats.
Some people dream of living the ex-pat life part of the year or year-round, creating a comfortable and very affordable life in another country that is recognized as one of the premier retirement and ex-pat destinations in the world, interacting with - and becoming one of - the locals, shopping at farmers markets, all while being within easy reach of their home in the US or South America.
What if you could have all of that? What if there was an affordable island paradise that offered all this and more. What if there was a huge tract of lush, fertile land that already had a portion developed and includes a private beach, lagoon, dock, fruit trees, and 4 habitable villas? What if the entire thing could be had for less than the cost of the average American home?
If any of this sounds appealing to you, check out Starfish Reef Resort. It’s near Bocas Del Toro, Panama and is a day-trip from just about anywhere in the US. It consists of about 25 acres on an island and has a private beach and lagoon, is partially built, and lots of native fruit trees. It used to be a cacao plantation, and during the mid-2010s it was partially developed. There are 4 decent size villas that need some TLC, but the hard part - the beach and jungle clearing, building of houses, trails, dock, and power system - have all been done on a 5-acre section of the property. You could make an enormous return on your investment by selling off parcels of the remaining 20 acres, or you could improve the existing villas and facilities and operate it as an eco resort. Or you could just do some repairs and have your own, private paradise to escape to on vacations or when you retire. The possibilities are limitless! For details and photos check out the FB page here. If you’d like more information, feel free to inquire at [email protected]. This is an amazing bargain, whether as an investment or a vacation/retirement property.
Disclosure: I own this property with my former husband and business partner. I would love to keep and maintain the property, but it doesn’t fit with my goals.
Starfish Reef property consisting of ~5 developed acres, 4 villas, and ~20 undeveloped acres, has nearly $850,000 invested but is currently offered at $500,000.
