Enjoy Playa El Palmar beach house surf and relax
All spectacular! Our stay at the house was amazing. The property is super well cared for, clean and very comfortable to rest and enjoy. Carmen was an excellent host, always attentive and very kind from the moment she was. It was definitely a lovely experience and we didn't hesitate to come back. Highly recommended!

We stayed for a month. Very good value. Well equipped. Would stay again. Any issue was resolved by their resident property Manager-Larry

The Coco Breeze condo in Casamar
Excellent place, full recommended, everything was very clean and organized. The communication with Julie was very good, I responded very quickly all our concerns and the water park was excellent for the children. We had a lot of fun as a family. Thank you very much Julie for always being on the lookout.

CORONADO GOLF at CORONADO BEACH Unit 16B, Panama
Wonderful place to stay. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful Beach front Apartment. Farallon A
Burma's place was great for my family. The balcony with the view of the ocean was wonderful. The beach and property were clean. Burma's condo was as described and suited all of our needs.

Luxury Oceanfront Penthouse
This is the fourth time my husband and I have visited Panama and our first to stay at Rio Mar. Our stay in Keith’s condo was lovely and relaxing. The view from the many windows gave us a panoramic view of the ocean with the morning sun coming up on our balcony. The beach was a short walk from our door. The condo itself was amply furnished the way that we enjoy with spacious areas throughout. The kitchen had everything to make our stay enjoyable and having three full baths was a bonus. We had a few glitches with the condo but Sery was quick to correct them. Our stay was for four weeks with the first two on our own and the last two spent with two friends. We enjoyed the four different pools, the poolside restaurant and the many choices of seating in the common areas. There were many amenities available if one wished to use them. The cleanliness of the grounds show that Rio Mar takes pride in their surroundings. We would not hesitate to visit again.

It is a very nice place to spend a long weekend… our pets felt like home and we all were very welcome by the staff. We will definitely go back.

Dreamy Beachfront Condo in Paradise @Palmar Beach
The apartment is good for a couple and small children, the amenities of the PH are quite nice and the access to the beach is direct, highly recommended

Quinta El Bosque
Awesome place surrounded by nature. Beautiful views. Great place to disconnect and have some peaceful and chill time.

Surf Platforms @ Rio Mar Panamá
The property offers exceptional hospitality, a stunning natural setting, and a spacious, well-equipped environment. The accommodations are thoughtfully designed, with comfortable bedrooms and beds that ensure a pleasant stay. For those who appreciate nature, this is an ideal destination. My family, including my two daughters (ages 6 and 8), my wife, and my mother-in-law, thoroughly enjoyed our time here. We look forward to returning in the near future.

Private Home in Gated Beach Community with Pool
An amazing house with a very peaceful feeling, great amenities, easy to find and a great host.

Spectacular lake view villa in Decameron
Lovely place with comfortable outdoor areas and good beds! We had a great time :)

Casa Buena Vista
Great stay, Greg was very responsive, and an awesome view. Mind that mobile reception at the location can be a bit spotty, and no WiFi, so maybe (currently) not optimal for a digital nomad or similar that depends on high speed internet. But does make it ideal to disconnect a bit, and really enjoy nature. Many birds and other animals around, and a great pool and terrace to lounge on. Watch the stairs outside though, they are a bit tricky ;)

Kite Couples: Cute Apt, Direct Kite Beach Access
We had an absolutely amazing stay! The location is unbeatable – just 100 meters to the bay and 150 meters to the ocean. The apartment itself was perfect: everything we needed was right there, making it incredibly convenient and comfortable. The swimming pool was an added bonus, making our mornings and evenings even more relaxing. The owner truly made our trip unforgettable. He organized everything for us, from airport transfers to meals at his fantastic restaurant. He even recommended and arranged the best local trips, helping us explore the beauty of the surrounding area. Additionally, the owner has several businesses in the area, including a restaurant and other services, which made our stay even more convenient and enjoyable. Everything we needed was right at our fingertips! We couldn’t have asked for a better host or location. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a worry-free and enjoyable vacation.

Beach House in Punta Barco
We are delighted with our experience on this property. The house exceeded our expectations; it's even better than the photos! It is super cozy and comfortable, perfect for a large family like ours. Upon arrival everything was clean and the kitchen was fully equipped with more than enough utensils to prepare meals for our group. In addition there were sufficient supplies of personal toilets and cleaning, also kitchen items that are essential such as paper towel and sewels, up to aluminum foil and ziplocs, as well as condiments, among others... The space is ideal for spending a few days with your family, especially if they are large groups of between 6 and 12 people. The pool is an excellent plus The house is close to Coronado beach although we liked the beach of Santa Clara more which is about 30 min from there. Each corner of the house is designed to provide comfort and make you feel at home. The host is very friendly.

Coronado Beach Lodge
Such a wonderful house! We stayed there for a month with no issues whatsoever. The place is so lovely, very quite, clean and in a walking distance to the beach. The host is incredibly responsive. Everything in one package!))

Casa Serena Beachfront-Perfect Couples + Families
Tom and Karen’s unit is incredibly well equipped, lots of extra towels, very adequate instruction sheet, loads of spices and some food items they were handy to have before hitting the grocery store. We got in really late, and it was so nice to have a couple beers and soft drinks waiting in the fridge for us. And they are amenable to a flexible check out if there is no renter coming in after you leave. Five stars!

Relaxing Punta Barco Condo with Oceanview
This is a fabulous Airbnb if you want to experience Panama outside the big city. The property itself has a gorgeous pool! It is also close to a beautiful beach called Playa Teta, which most days you will have all to yourself! Just make sure to take a cooler with drinks and food since there is nothing on the beach, other than you. :) Alex is a wonderful host and is VERY responsive. He even helped us find a shipping store, lol! Great stay!

Beach house + Pool + Beach at 5 minutes walking
The place is quiet and cozy, you feel at home. The beach is very close and the pool area is very nice.

Gorgona Beach, Panama House
Jackson is spot-on for any needs we had. He is very responsive and kind. The condo is clean and well-equipped. Will definitely seek it out again.
