Tropical weather Luxury Country Club Living in the Andes mountains of Ecuador
 
 

The EcoVenus ecological mountain top retreat country club and spa offers you all the luxury of home without all the boring chores!

Buy a property in our country club setting; your plot is already planted with tropical trees, such as coffee, avocado, orange, lime, and mango. Walk along the miles of ready laid paths, among flowering ginger, banana and citrus trees, fish ponds and streams, multicolored tropical birds and plants. Enjoy magnificent views of green mountains, rainbows, and red-roofed villages with brightly colored churches, far below. When needed, the bustle and convenience of city life is only 35 minutes away.

Enjoy your leisure time to the full with walking, jogging, group exercising, tennis, racquetball, eating, swimming, sun-bathing, outdoor and indoor luxury dining, etc. Join our country club community, and let us handle all of your maintenance cares--like cutting the grass or trimming the trees, irrigation, cleaning, garbage pickup, repairs, etc. All maintenance chores are included in your monthly membership fee.

People who will be joining the EcoVenus country club for the most part are seeking close personal interaction with others

But when you do choose to be alone, your privacy and quiet are ensured by increasing wall insulation where homes are closer together, and by planting trees to give more isolation. Home sites are split level, according to the topography and the common areas such as the restaurant and pool are are on different levels to the accommodation, ensuring privacy and quiet..

Not all properties are sold to foreigners; we expect to sell approximately 50% to USA, 25% Europe, 25% Ecuador. Many Ecuadorians seek interaction with English speaking individuals; many send their children to schools that teach English. The club will be a great way for you to get to meet local Ecuadorians that speak English, make new friends and business partners.

In 2007 over 50 more foreigners families moved into the area, this means more activities, more and better restaurants and entertainment. The road From Loja to Vilcabamba is approx. 75% repaved. There are small improvements constantly taking place throughout the province. New multi-billion dollar investment is taking place in Loja and Zamora in the mining industry; which will encourage further modernisationand development of the area. Loja now has a nice large supermarket, new Movie Theater, new bowling alley, new large private schools, new university and much more. In 2008 there will be a new international airport in Santa Rosa, about a 3 hour drive from Loja.
