Launch Your BETA Test
30 Days in Paradise to Test the Waters Before You Take The Plunge

30 Days 'Living Like a Local' To Give You The Certainty to Move

Is it finally time to test the waters to make sure that life in paradise is what you want?

If so, this is your chance to live like a local to see for yourself if paradise is right for you today.

Your Beta Test is the final step before pulling the trigger to move to paradise.

It's your reality check where you let go of the fantasy, and embrace the reality of a different way of life.

And the great news?  You can live like an islander for what you would spend on a week's vacation!

Today your dream can become a reality! 

Experience a whole month - or more - living like an islander, learning to thrive on the local economy not as a tourist, but as a local resident.

We'll help you rent an apartment, get settled in with all your needs, learn where and how to shop, introduce you to dozens of expats, help you get involved in local activities, and learn the ropes of life in paradise.

 At the end of your runaway month, you will know for sure if this is the life for you, so you can finally escape to paradise for good!

30 Days That Will Change Your Life

This is the critical next stage in your plan to escape to paradise - your BETA TEST. It's your trial run to test the waters before taking the plunge.

You will have the unique opportunity to live like a local to experience what a permanent or part time move to paradise will feel like. Living in your own apartment, shopping for groceries, doing your own laundry, getting around on your own - the experience is much different from that of being a tourist. And it can be even more fun!

And you get to live that experience in one of the most sought-after locales in the world - a white sandy beach island, where the Gulf of Mexico kisses the Caribbean Sea - just 7 miles due west of Cancun in Mexico. You will have the opportunity to explore the island by golf cart, taste fresh-caught seafood, and dig your toes into powder white sand while sipping your frosty margarita or ice cold beer.. 


Most importanly, you will have the time to meet and talk with dozens of other expats to learn about their experiences and suggestions directly from them. You will have lots of time to explore all the quaint stores, hole-in-the-wall restaurants, and hidden touristic jewels, and every day swim and sun on one of the 9 best beaches of the world – according to Conde Nast.

And if you plan to work remotely in paradise, this is the chance to verify that you can do your job while living in paradise. We will make sure you have access to great internet and Wi-Fi for smoking hot connections, and introduce you to other professionals who work here also to serve as inspiration and role models. Need to explore remote work opportunities? We will brainstorm to learn your needs, and help you connect with others to find the work you love - and can do in paradise! 


Plan Your BETA TEST When It Suits Your Needs


There is no set date or inflexible schedule to choose from, Pick any 30 day period, and we will make it work. It may be convenient to book a calendar month - from the first through the last day of the month - but it's okay to start your Beta Test mid-month.

Seasonality may be a consideration as well.

The late fall, winter, and spring (October - April) is temperate weather-wise, where you can often spend days and nights with the windows and patio doors wide open to the ocean breezes. Starting mid-December, tourists abound, and there is something going on every day and night. Hidalgo, the walking street, is packed with tourists, and you may need a reservation to get into your favorite restaurant. Lounges at your favorite beach club may be hard to get, and parking on narrow streets becomes a real challenge.



The late spring and summer are hot and steamy, you will run the air conditioning day and night, and everyone lives in a bathing suit for frequent dips in the ocean or pool. The tourists are gone, and there is a warm and friendly network of locals and expats that have the time to visit, go fishing, swim and snorkel, and sit sipping beer under a palm tree or watch the sunset from their roof top balconies The island is a riot of color as plants and flowering trees explode in blossoms. 

September and October are laid-back months, when many businesses close for a week or two for collective vacations and annual maintenance. It's easy to book a small fishing trip with the locals or enjoy a massage on the beach at sunset.

May through September is whale shark season, and you will definitely want to take a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to swim with these gentle monsters in the deep ocean waters.

If you've already visited Isla during tourist season, you may wish to do your Beta Test during a completely different season to get a feel for year-round life.

Let's hop on a call to discuss your preferences and pick the time that is right for you.
