"Expats considering retirement in Cap Estate should be aware of several important factors. Firstly, the cost of living can be high, especially in areas popular with tourists and expats. The official language is English, but many locals also speak a French-based Creole. The local currency is the Eastern Caribbean Dollar, but US dollars are widely accepted. Healthcare facilities in Saint Lucia are limited, with more serious conditions often requiring evacuation to a nearby island or back to your home country. Therefore, comprehensive health insurance is essential. The climate is tropical, with a wet season from June to November. Hurricanes can occur during this period. Saint Lucia has a relatively high crime rate, although most crime is opportunistic rather than violent. Expats are advised to take sensible precautions to protect their property. The process of buying property in Saint Lucia can be complex and time-consuming. Non-nationals need to apply for an Alien Landholding License, which can take several months to be approved. The island's infrastructure can be lacking in some areas, with power outages and water shortages not uncommon. Internet service can also be unreliable. Despite these challenges, many expats enjoy the relaxed lifestyle, beautiful scenery, and friendly locals that Saint Lucia has to offer. It's recommended to visit the island several times before making a decision to retire there," said a member in Cap Estate, Saint Lucia.
