One of the best places to retire would have to be a house overlooking a deep turquoise ocean. Despite the fact that flaps and sagging skin hinder you to hit the waves and fit into skimpy summer wear. Still, the top pick is a tropical spot in the world. The sun-washed soil can be your next home after your retirement documents are released. So why not head to the southernmost province of the Dominican Republic into the Punta Cana district in La Altagracia.
The warm and secluded paradise-like is a popular tourist destination. The island is surrounded by the fresh waters of the Caribbean Sea. Bavaro and El Cortecito face the north white-sand edges of the Punta Cana. The average high temperature reaches 87 F during August up to September. So keep a bottle of sunscreen within your reach lest you want to get some tan lines and a classic even sun-kissed bottom to top.
The tropical wave in the island is suited for people who are ever ready for some adventures and for those longing to treat their eyes with a jaw-dropping vista. The beautiful scenic view from your porch fills your body with ultra spirits that will make you zest for life. The quiet expanse of Punta Cana makes you feel relaxed and find peace at the mere sight of the pulverized sand. At night, lying on your back under the palm tree would make you feel floating weightless in the universe.
Expect a hearty meal with a plate full of healthy food on your dining table. The price of food in the local market is affordable especially in the morning. With mostly vegetables and fish to get your fridge fully loaded, you will surely get a glowing aura. The cost of living for a retiree is reasonable. However, price of mobile phones, clothes, electronic gadgets, and other commodities is high. Luckily, telecommunications system in the island operates well but with occasional disruptions by typhoons accompanied by forceful winds.
With so many things to get you going in the wave-drenched sands of Punta Cana, certainly, you would not turn into an inveterate beach bum. You can begin a day catching the thrill with fish anglers or taking a brisk walk on a breezy morning. Boating, surfing, kayaking, bicycling, and jogging are also some of the common activities in Punta Cana.
The Dominican Republic has stable political and economic environment. It is not highly commercialized; however, livelihood resources for local and foreign settlers are stable. Local people are very accommodating and friendly. Although, there may be some cultural differences between you and the native settlers, expect to be not alienated as people welcome new villagers.
Indeed, Punta Cana is the best place to spread the towel and catch some ultra-violet rays but there can also be some more significant, private or personal reasons for sentimental retirees like you. Perhaps, one compelling reason to go and stay for good in Punta Cana is its laid back lifestyle.
