Retiring in the Lap of Nature at Altos del Maria

An ideal place to retire is one which, in spite of offering all the amenities for convenient living, is still away from traffic and pollution of the city. Keeping this fact in mind, the construction branch of Grupo Melo has come up with its housing projects in Altos del Maria, on the beautiful mountains of Sora. Unlike most other mountain communities in Panama, this is located in close proximity to the country's capital, Panama City. The cool and comfortable climate round the year has made the Panama real estate located in this region among best places to retire in the country.

Owing to the fact that some of the rarest breeds of flora and fauna thrive in the Altos del Maria, the location is also known as garden paradise. Living on the mountains means no floods, no storms and, most importantly, no land taxes, thus making the community among the best places to retire in the country. The current Panamanian President, Mireya Moscoso, has also purchased two properties in this location.

The roads are maintained and repaired for any breakage on a periodic basis, thus ensuring smooth flow of traffic.

The entire project is subdivided into various sections, out of which, four have been completed. These four sections have 680 lots in which, 350 are already been sold. A vast green area has been strategically left out by the company, which has been made a no construction zone. Hence there will be a limit of 2500 lots that will be sold in total by the developer. This is an effort by the construction company towards maintaining an eco-friendly living atmosphere inside the community. The company, adhering to its ideology of sustainable development, has built 25 kms of natural trails, out of which 5 kms consist of suspension bridges and walkways.
