Hi sdesouz84, tell us what shape the leaves are and you may get some more suggestions.

My only suggestion is a Fig but the locals would probably know where the tree is and have better guesses.

Welcome to the board.

From the colour of the flower, possibly the 'Lucky Bean' Thevetia Peruviana?.... some nice ones near the main central car park.
