I assume he got in under the old price structure so he shouldn't have any problem selling.

I think he took the bait between 3 and 4 years ago and settled for less of a price reduction by about 50% less than promised out of court about 22 months after the promised delivery date by Casa Linda.
I don't know how much the almost two years of renting cost him, and time will tell how long before it sells. Nobody has jumped on the deal when he first listed it. Now he has it listed with a DR broker he liked.
Correction: It's between Banco Popular and the gym to the west. It's a big site. I saw a "sales and rentals" sign today. The way drivers tail-gate you here, I knew if I slowed down to read the sign, I'd get rear-ended by the car behind me.
Can't be worse than the environmental issue of the polluted Cabarete Bay. Imagine you sink US 1MM into a full floor suite just to find out the bay is loaded with raw sewage
Upwinds Estates is an interesting project. The challenge may be walking across the highway to the beach. A larger project might might have made a high walking bridge over the highway feasible.
They tried this in my neighborhood a few years ago.
Most have since been removed.
There are new asphalt speed bumps on the main highway near kite beach that replaced the plastic ones that were removed which were essentially useless.
I suppose someone might hack those away.
By the time these villas are completed, there will be so much traffic on that road that speed bumps may not be necessary.
Thanks to Taylor, I have information about this new project called Sunset By The Sea which says it is in Punta Goleta, but is actually in the El Rocon region on the north side of route 5 across from the entrance to the now under construction Cabarete Country Club:

A supermarket, clubhouse, 6 story condo buildings with 168 apartments, 35 villas, etc. All the information is in the downloadable PDF file.

Anyone have an update on connections? It doesn't look like much progress has been made and it as one of the first go start during this current phase of expansion.
Huge egg on the Casa Linda operators, it doesn't show well for them. Years late and doesn't look like it's close to being finished. I'm surprised there isn't a class action lawsuit on their hands.

Rumour has it the first 2 condo buildings are sold out & are going to be delivered in 30 days with none of the promised amenities. The walk-to-the-beach price point for Encuentro in the mid $200s looks to be a bargain these days. They have apparently had stumbles with the first builder who had to be replaced. Agree, Casa Linda's good reputation is on the line. Connections condos are surrounded with successful Encuentro projects-while it lays less than half done. Not a good look. However, the Connections villa piece looks to be mostly finished, while still lacking paved roads & lighting. The newer Surf Village villa project across the road puts Casa Linda to shame.
