Yes, you did read that correctly! Who knew you could own private property on one of world’s most natural, sacred and pristine locations? As far fetched as it may seem, it is true. The Galapagos Islands are on the United Nations list of World Heritage sites that is endangered, which is the main reason why only 3% of this real estate is allowed private ownership by the Ecuadorian government.

You may have missed it back in 2004 when the Galapagos Santa Cruz Gardens subdivision containing 60 lots were available for This is truly a once in a lifetime rare opportunity. The cost is a steal when compared to other island real estate like Hawaii. The growth in adventure tourism to the Galapagos will only fuel the appreciation of this investment for years to come.purchase. Unfortunately, all of those lots have been sold or reserved. More information about this development can be found here, www.santacruzgarden.com.

Fortunately, for those that are interested in sun, sand, beach and a great investment value; we have uncovered a new opportunity for real estate ownership on the Galapagos. You will have to be quick because this new subdivision consists of only 26 lots and about half have been spoken for as of today.

Before you break out the checkbook, fair warning must be given about this privilege of ownership. There are many rules and laws that will have to be abided by. The Galapagos is like no other place in the world and is a delicate ecosystem that needs to be preserved. Conservation is a priority; therefore, a high standard is required of its new investors.

This investment is best suited for those that loves nature and would like to help do their part in protecting it for future generations. There are some principles that you will have to commit to and they are not your every day homeowner’s association bylaws.

• Non migration to the Galapagos policy. You may stay for up to 90 days per year in the Galapagos but not seek to migrate there nor foster migration there.
• Use of solar power in the homes (should you decide to construct a home on your lot, you will have to use solar powered energy)
• Being ready to contribute to the Galapagos in many ways, including that of adapting should changes be needed so as to better serve conservation efforts

If these commitments seems fair to you, then let me introduce you to the Santa Fe project. You will have to login to this site to get all the details, www.santafe-galapagos.com.
