Connection to Nature Live immersed in a thriving ecosystem, surrounded by wildlife, lush forests, and sustainable agriculture. Harmonia offers a peaceful, harmonious environment where nature is an integral part of everyday life.
Sustainability and Self-Sufficiency The community is designed to operate with eco-friendly practices, from renewable energy sources to permaculture-based agriculture. Residents are actively involved in growing food and cultivating sustainable practices that minimize our ecological footprint.
Community Governance and Shared Values Residents play an active role in decision-making, with a voice in how the community operates through councils that focus on wellness, agriculture, and infrastructure. Harmonia is built on principles of collaboration, shared responsibility, and open communication.
Privacy and Tranquility Enjoy the serenity of a remote, private location far from the noise and bustle of urban life. Harmonia is the perfect place to disconnect from the stresses of the outside world and reconnect with yourself, your community, and nature.
Wildlife and Natural Beauty Experience close encounters with diverse wildlife, including jaguarundi, ocelots, pumas, deer, and an incredible array of bird species. This is a rare opportunity to live in harmony with nature’s creatures.
Tax Benefits for Nature Reserve With 100 acres designated as a nature reserve, residents benefit from reduced taxes while also contributing to the preservation of critical wildlife habitats.
Growing Community While remote, Harmonia is part of a small but growing expat community in the region, offering support and connection to like-minded individuals with a shared commitment to sustainable living.
Cons
Distance to Amenities The nearest gas station, grocery store, and ATM are 40 to 50 minutes away by car. Living in such a rural setting requires careful planning for errands and stocking up on supplies. Harmonia residents need to be comfortable with this level of isolation and prepared for the logistics of living far from major services.
Limited Local Expat Population Cardenas, the nearby town, has only five expats living in the area. While this contributes to a tranquil and authentic rural experience, it may take time for new residents to build strong local connections, and some may find the lack of a large expat network challenging.
Rural Infrastructure As with many rural areas, infrastructure such as roads and utilities can sometimes be less reliable or take longer to maintain. Harmonia is working toward sustainable and self-sufficient infrastructure, but potential residents should be aware of these realities.
Adjusting to Off-Grid Living For those not accustomed to off-grid or semi-off-grid living, adjusting to life without easy access to conveniences like city utilities, fast internet, or other urban amenities may require a period of adaptation.
