Panama real estate is one of the healthiest and dynamic real estate
markets in the world. Panama real estate offers much more than the vibrant, bustling Panama City. In fact real estate in Panama Province is some of the most sought after in the country. Panama's great variety--ocean real estate with sweeping vistas on both coasts,
mountain property in lush tropical cloudforest and farms in the charming foothils--Panama real estate offers something for everyone. From luxury properties to cozy cabins, the interior provinces provide a wide variety of choices to both single
family home buyers and large scale investors.
Whether your interest is in development or investment land on the
Azuero Peninsula and Veraguas or the little boom town of Pedasi, Boca Chica's bequiling bahias of the "Lost Coast",
the lovely mountain homes of
Boquete in the Chiriqui
Highlands, the unique rural charm of Cocle and Chiriqui Province and its provincial capital of David or a hideaway on the Caribbean in
Bocas del Toro or Colon,
our staff brings a wealth of knowledge, years of experience and vast
local knowledge to help you make an informed decision about your
Panama real estate purchase.

Boca Chica "Under Construction"
Along with the action in David that we've been seeing lately ground has broken for several more luxury residences near Boca Chica on Chiriqui's "Lost Coast".
Government to Spend $400 million in Chiriqui...
Some good news confirming what the scuttlebutt's been saying for some time...
A Whale of a Tale...
September and October are peak whale watching months in the Chiriqui Gulf and our recent trip seaward didn't disappoint...
Scratching Our Heads...
When we moved to David five years ago, we did so because we wanted to be located in a place where we could easily access all of Chiriqui's attractions...

Tucked into the Chiriquí Highlands, the little hamlet of
Boquete represents (along with Bocas del Toro) a destination that has
historically been and remains a very popular destination for tourists and
expatriate residents. Boquete was named one of the top places to retire
by “Modern Maturity”, “International Living” and “Forbes” magazines. The
climate, natural beauty and ease of life are all contributing factors to
Boquete’s appeal. Foreigners were instrumental in the founding of the
town in 1911 and the local people are long-accustomed to the presence
of many nationalities. The architecture of many of the older homes and
buildings reflects some of the whimsical interpretations brought by early
European settlers here.
The climate in Boquete is often referred to as “eternal spring” with
temperate days and cool nights. Air conditioning is rarely used and
a fireplace is a nice addition on the coolest nights. Coffee plantations
dot the mountainsides and groves of sweet oranges (the strain originally
brought from Riverside, California!) bear fruit that is reputed to be the
sweetest in the land. Coffee from Boquete has recently fetched a world
record price and the plantations are just beginning to realize coffee’s
potential as not just a commodity, but a tourist draw in
and of itself. Growers are beginning to offer tours and ‘cupping sessions’
modeled on Napa Valley wine tours.
Against the backdrop of the highest peak in Panama, Volcan Baru, the
scenery that surrounds the town is an inspiring landscape. Cloud forest,
abundant streams and waterfalls, lush tropical vegetation, a dazzling
variety of bird life and other fauna all contribute to dazzle the eye.
In and around the town you will find finely conceived developments
designed to capitalize on and enhance the setting of tropical mountain life.
Many are constructed using native materials such as stone or the many
exotic woods found in this part of Panama. Most of the newer
developments use a Spanish colonial theme as a starting point to their
own signature styles. Older areas of the town have a delightful mixture of
home styles reflecting the individual characters of their owners.
Because of the presence of such a diverse population, Boquete has one
of the best selections of restaurants outside of Panama City. Here you
can experience fine dining that you are not likely to find in other small
towns in Panama. A French bistro here, an Italian brick-oven pizzeria
there, Panamanian/Euro fusion menus and Peruvian fare are among
the many options. Hotels are also well represented by everything from
a charming country inn to a luxurious modern spa and boutique hotel.
The venerable Panamonte is perched right on the
Caldera River and is one of the original accommodations in Boquete. If
you visit be sure to spend some time looking at the pictures of the Inn’s
original owners in the lobby and try to imagine what these early pioneers
experienced.
Boquete is the hub of the area’s mountain recreation offering
tree-trekking on zip-lines, guided mountain hikes to the nearby La
Amistad and Volcan Baru national parks, bird-watching and horseback
riding. While visiting the area you are likely to see Ngobi Bugle Indians
in their colorful native costumes as they are frequently employed in the
coffee and citrus industries and make their homes on the slopes of the
Chiriquí Highlands. Occasionally you will find the ladies selling intricate
beadwork jewelry at roadside stands. |
