The real estate market in Boquete heated up quickly in early 2003 and remained hot until the real estate crisis in the United States in late 2008. Prices pulled back for the greater part of 2009, but we have seen a resurgence of buyers into the...

Tamarindo is an intriguing mix of modern amenities, modern problems and old fashioned enjoyment. Unfortunately, the restaurants at the main beach area were closed down on our last trip, probably a result of the downturn. Some of the best hotels...

Searching Central America in semiretirement I found Nicaragua intriguing, safe and full of adventure. More specifically Granada filled all my senses so much that I wanted to purchase a condominium. None existed three years ago so I set out to...

Were also noticing the new infrastructure improvements in the area such as the pedestrian bridge, improved malecon, and painting work. It can also be very hard to get a hotel room which is always a good sign.

Having come to a wonderful funky fishing village 10 years ago, starting a business and successfully building its reputation up from nothing and selling it and then starting another, Placencia certainly boasts an enormous opportunity for the...

We saw over 50 different lots in 5 towns and areas of Guanacaste, from high end developments to rough lots in the jungle. We were convinced we wanted an ocean view since we live in Southern CA and oceanview lots are in the millions. When we...

I have over 30 in this area. It has grown so fast in the past 10 years and will probably continue at this pace for the next 10 years. Yes there are infrastructure problems, there are cons too. Overall, I love the place. I recommend you find a...

I purchased a beautiful home at the Tucan Country Club resort right outside of Panama City. There is an 18 hole golf course and other amenities. It is ten minutes from down town Panama City. For some reason you have not mentioned it on your web...

My wife and I first went to Placencia 20 years ago. We were on our way to the cayes to sea kayak and Placencia was the place to get water and from which to head out to the cayes. We would spend another night in Placencia on our way home. It...

I make no bones about it. The water, sun and beaches are the same as the Costa Rican beaches that I did not have the money for 15 years ago. Now we are semiretired and live on about 2000month including maid and gardner just 800 meters from the...

Gran Pacifica Resort next to playa San Diego. Visited GP last week and found the place with lots of activities. The first nine holes of golf course are almost ready for its opening in first days of December, the club house is almost...

This isnt a review but rather is a question to the experts about real estate in panama. Given the price adjustments in the US Florida and Arizonadoes it make sense to buy a property in Panama. Timing is everything in real estate. Are there...

Ive invested in Gorgona and Altos del Maria. With the instablity of the U.S. economic system and the dollar in general, Panama seems to be a safe place to rest my money. Not to mention, Panama's economical foundation as a country assures me that...

Too funny I love the fact that all the people leaving a review about a place also happen to be selling real estate in that same area. Hmm. Just a coincidence I am sure.

I purchased a home at the Tucan Golf and Country Club immediately outside Panama City. The site is just west of the Bridge of the Americas and once the Cinta Costera is complete, will be 10 minutes from downtown. We have a great view of the...

After combing the Pacific Nicaraguan coastline we decided to purchase land in the Bella Vista section of Rancho Santana. We say many developments that promised Golf Courses, spas, restaurants and other future amenities on paper but at Rancho...

If you don't like crowds and noise, I'd give Jaco a miss from a lifestyle perspective. Every time I pass through Jaco there seem to be more bars, nightclubs, souvenir stands along the main drag and all the noise that goes along with them. I...

Bocas Del Toro is a wonderful place. In all of my time traveling, I have not found such a blend of culture, gorgeous landscape and friendly people. I do think Bocas is currently going through some growing pains, in terms of infrastructure,...
