The first step in joining the Casa Dorinda community is to visit - breathe the sea air, speak with those who live here, and truly experience what Casa Dorinda has to offer. Please feel free to contact us for a private tour.
Take a look at our brochures and once you have decided that Casa is the place for you, the next step is to apply for acceptance to our Waiting List. With limited availability, we cannot stress enough the importance of early planning - the current length of our Waiting List is about five years (subject to availability). The two main factors that are reviewed during the application process are demonstrating strong medical health and robust financial strength.
Application Details
• All applicants must be at least 62 years of age at the time of entry.
