Client Success Stories

Building a home is very stressful and complicated. Doing so out of the country is very challenging and seems almost impossible. We want to thank the team in Panama for Life for the great services they have rendered thus far. They did a great job picking a builder that is fair and does quality work. We were very pleased to see that the work so far has exceeded our expectations. There is always an open line of communication which is very important to us. We can't wait to see the final outcome!

Owner Villa Wave - US

Building a home in a foreign country can be very challenging. It’s made easier when working with a builder who is responsive and flexible. Panama for Life was very accommodating and ensured any changes I requested were made. The sub-contractors that they used were very well managed. All errors or problems were quickly addressed and resolved. The only exception has been the subcontractor used for the kitchen. The kitchen, although functional, remains unfinished as far as I am concerned. Overall I am pleased with the final product. Once all of the outstanding items on my list are addressed I will feel like my house is well-built with acceptable attention to detail.

Owner Villa Tropical - US

“My wife and I first visited Coco Beach in 2019, after seeing the website about the project. We fell in love with the location at first sight. We live in China, so we were hesitant about embarking in a construction project on our own. However, talking to Gary and his team we realized that we could get the support we needed to build a house to our specifications. It could actually work! Despite the challenges that COVID-19 brought, we were able to get our deed, agree on plans and specs, and get all the contracts and paperwork done remotely. Our hoarse is now weeks from completion, and we are really happy about the way it looks. We would never have been able to do something like this on our own. The team at Panama For Life pulled it through for us. We are now really looking forward to our first stay in our new home, as soon as travel restrictions ease up”

Owners Villa Magnolia - Spain/China

My husband and I cannot say enough about Coco Beach. The true beauty of this gem is hard to believe, unless you are standing on the beach or at the club house taking in the soft breeze, gorgeous beach, or relaxing atmosphere. We purchased our lot in early 2019 after visiting Panama for the first time and recently visited again to see our brand new home in this amazing community. During our most recent visit, we had the opportunity to eat at the clubhouse with Happy Green and the food is divine. We also stayed in the glamping eco pods Happy Green has onsite while finalizing our home and we were not disappointed.

Owners Villa FRESH - US

My journey with Coco Beach began in March 2020, days before the plandemic hit Panama with all its restrictions. I was on vacation in Panama and planned to visit the site, but unfortunately this never happened. So, the Panama For Live Team quickly set up a video tour for me and showed everything I wanted to see. It was a very pleasing experience and I felt that this will be my future place to live.
