1. The new paradigm: work where you invest

As remote work shifts from trend to global norm, professionals seek places that blend connectivity, well-being, and long-term value. Barú North is that sweet spot:

  • Fiber-optic internet with satellite backups already installed in Phase 1.
  • Open-air coworking zones, naturally ventilated and wrapped in green.
  • Rest areas overlooking the lagoon and shaded walking trails.
