Today's vacation homes seem to be dropping in price. A new planned resort in Punta Leona, Costa Rica offers quarter ownerships in their residences starting at just $70,000. Tranquilo will be tucked into a ridge line where the rainforest meets the Pacific on Costa Rica's Central Coast and will be a secluded retreat on 15 acres in the gated community of Punta Leona. Amenities will include a spa, swimming pools, a fitness center, waterfall viewing decks, a lounge and a recreation center.

Floor plans range from 700 square foot studios to 4,500 square foot penthouses and feature private balconies and a look of rustic elegance in browns and dark woods. The resort will have concierge service and will cater to owners with services such as transport to and from Tranquilo either by helicopter or private shuttle. Upon owner arrival homes will be stocked with groceries and baggage will be delivered. The services of a private chef can be requested. Owners will also be able to rent out their property through a rental management program.

Baby Boomers continue to be the most powerful comsumers in the marketplace and will continue for many years to come, regardless of the economic climate and the current market conditions. Boomers are deeply engaged with interactive media, online communities and social networks, making oline marketing channels an effective and efficient method to connect with Baby Boomers.

The number of Americans and Canadians living abroad, approximatley 7 Million according to The Washington Post, which is twice the population of Chicago and greater than that of 33 U.S. States, has steadily grown over the past decade and it is expected to more than double within the next 10 years.

In the next 20 years, 100 million baby boomers, from the USA and Canada, are going to retire. Five million baby boomers turn age 60 each year, Ten Thousand per day, Seven per minute, and scores of them are purchasing property abroad as vacation homes or investment homes. Naturally, many of them are auditioning these homes for potential primary retirement residences.

What used to be small fishing shacks and seasonal cottages has now become a luxury resort area. I am talking about Keuka Lake. You can find lake homes starting in the low $300000 to over 3 million with the average price being around $479,000.

What do you get for this money? Usually a minimum of 50ft of lake frontage, a quiet out of the way place to enjoy and the beautiful scenery that surrounds it, which includes rolling hills of vineyards, woods and of course the lake itself. You are minutes away from award winning wineries and about an hour from major cities. Local restaurants can appease the most discriminating palates.
