19th Floor - Beachfront With Ocean and Mountain Views - Beautiful - Sleeps 2-6

This 3 bedroom 2 bath condo located on beautiful Gorgona Beach is part of Playa Serena Resort gated beachfront community. This beautiful condo isn't a short drive to the beach or a short walk to the beach, this condi is ON the beach.

From the balcony of this 19th floor home you have a wonderful view of the Pacific Ocean and a spectacular mountain view as well. Condo is new w/ all appliances, a/c, WiFi, pool, equipped exercise room, etc. We can accommodate up to 6 people.

COME ENJOY PANAMA!!! BUT BE WARNED, YOU MAY NEVER WANT TO LEAVE!!!

Coronado is just 3 km away with Hospital, Catholic Church, Synagogue, Banks and 4-24-hour Super Markets with Pharmacies. Nearby you can travel to El Valle mountain village with: Thermal Springs, Treetop aerial ride, peaceful mountain forest trails and Handicrafts and Farmers markets. You can drive or take tours of the Panama Canal, or visit nearby towns and enjoy natural tropical settings, Rain forests, Ecotourism. We can give you contact information for tour guides and more.

Additional details: Fully equipped condo: All bedding, towels, wash cloths and kitchen towels are provided. The condo is fully equipped with all kitchen appliances, dishes, silverware and knives, table-wear, comfortable furniture, beds and patio table and chairs. We have a porta-crib for those people who have a baby with them.

We have stayed at some rentals that just were not what they advertised. You will have my email address (and there is very good high speed internet at the condo) and my cell phone number in the US. You can email or call me if you have any problems.

There is a final cleaning fee charged but that is already in the price you have been given. We don't have any 'hidden' costs, i.e., taxes, management fees, linen service, etc.

There is a parking space inside the parking garage after you pass by the guard at the roadside gate so if you have a rental vehicle (or your own vehicle) we do have 1 parking space that is included in your cost.

We really love it in Panama and we really love Playa Serena and the beach and surrounding area and we're sure that you will love it also.

Refreshing
Great location right on the beach. I enjoyed everything about the place except for the fact that the entire building was without gas the entire time I was there. There was some sort of inspection that was going on and it wasn’t completed when I was there. This meant I had no hot water and no stove. I usually cook on my trips so I ended up having to eat out exclusively. Other than that, I enjoyed the condo a lot.

Overall very nice but unexpected view
Overall a very nice and clean unit! Excellent detailed and rapid communication from and with the owner. 8 pages of notes and tips about the unit and surrounding area! The owners go above and beyond in providing items such as towels, kitchen utensils, soap, etc. even including a cell phone! When the Wi-Fi password didn’t work we sent an email to the owner who responded within minutes and fixed the issue (minor password typo)
 the fast communication made this a non-event. Great location for exploring the area. We didn’t use the pool or common area, although they both looked very nice. Very nice walk on the beach. Take care as the black sand gets very hot in the sun! The was a no gas due to a required safety inspection, so no hot water, no stove/oven, and no dryer. The owners were notified a couple weeks prior to our visit and they called to inform us. We used the provided gas grill to cook. It might have been nice to receive a bit of a discount or partial refund but the situation was out of their control. 1 small power outage for about 15 min
 this is expected in Panama and was not an issue. An unexpected item was the view from the balcony and master bedroom. The adjacent building is located very close to the unit and directly between it and the beach, blocking about 80% of the view. I wish this was included in the owners description or that there were better pictures showing the adjacent building in the posting.

A beautiful oasis
We arrived at Tom and Karen’s condo on April 7th 2019 and stayed in their well-appointed condo for 3 wonderful weeks. Our son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren joined us for one week and there was more than ample room. The condo was everything that Tom and Karen said it would be and more. The condo is beautifully decorated with local Indigenous art. All the appliances worked perfectly. Made use of all the amenities of the building, including fitness room, great pool overlooking the ocean and, yes, even an elevator to bring you to the beautiful black sand beach that sparkles like diamonds. It provided hours of fun for our granddaughter who collected shells. You can hear the sound of the waves throughout the condo. We literally took all our meals outside on the balcony. The views are breathtaking and always a nice breeze from the ocean to make al fresco dining comfortable. The BBQ was much appreciated. Great local restaurants and convenience stores at walking distance. Quite a great selection of supermarkets and restaurants 10 minutes away by car in Coronado, including Reba Smith a supermarket who carries specialty items for diabetics and celiac clients. Tom and Karen had recommended a driver to bring us to and from the airport, Byron Moscoso. He is a kind and well-versed chauffeur that speaks English very well and his passionate about his beautiful country. He took us as well for a one day excursion to the historic Old City of Panama and Miraflores. We rented a car from Coronado Car Rentals at Tom’s recommendation. It worked out beautifully and strongly recommend it. The family excursion to El Valle was definitely a highlight and is less than 1 hour by car from the condo. The Rio Hato fish market is a great place to go to buy fresh fish and seafood and local produce. Very inexpensive. From the moment we booked the condo back in June 2018, Tom and Karen responded quickly to all our queries. We have stayed in many VRBO properties in Europe and Mexico, and this one is definitely among the best. Thanks Tom and Karen for everything. Michel Smith and Danielle Martel Wakefield, QuĂ©bec Canada

Great stay, great place, great beach.
Playa Serena in New Gorgona is the place if you want a well appointed condo, on a great beach that you will have mostly to yourself. The views from the apartment of the ocean and mountain are excellent and Thomas has provided all the hardware you will need if you decide to eat and wash and live in a home environment. However, the Tiki Bar which is right on your beach front door can provide food and drink. They serve the best Eggs Benedict ever! ZThere are many restaurants in the area and some shopping in the immediate area. The area around the condo is beautiful and the Panamanians are still developing this location. I think you would enjoy everything about the condo and area. And as a special treat you get to have a thrill ride while driving with the locals.

My wife and I loved our staff in Panama.
This was our first time in Panama and we loved Tom and Karen's place. The condo was very well equipped and the location was perfect. We were far enough from Panama City but yet close to many attractions. What we liked most was the quietness of Playa Serena. Tom and Karen are great to rent from . They give you lots of ideas what to do and where to go. We thank them much. Highly recommend!

Amazing adventure in Panama
My family and arrived in Panama 9/16/17 and it was wonderful from the start to the very last day. Owners Tom and Karen Szewczyk were remarkable on how much information they gave us. From Coronado Car rental to all the wonderful places to grab a meal. I would have to say La Ruina was my daughters favorite she just loved the food and how interesting the owner Frank was with all his stories. Our condo at Playa Serena was comfortable and from the balcony the view was amazing. We enjoyed several Adult beverages by our pool and next door at the Bahia Tiki bar. One of our big adventures for a day was a visit To El Valle Mountain tours for an breath taking ATV journey to the beautiful Jungle Mountain waterfalls. I would highly recommend anyone interested in visiting Panama to use Tom and Karen as your host they are wonderful people with all the amenities and information you will need to enjoy a trip to Panama.

Awesome Condo in Playa Serna, Coronado Panama
From the minute we arrived at Tom and Karen's condo, we loved it. Situated on the 19th floor with a deck that gave us lots of shade and cool breezes this condo was all you need. The condo was fully appointed with ample furniture, good TV and Netflix, free phone calls to Canada, great kitchen dishes, utensils, and cooking pots and pans. The fridge made ice and was good size. We didn't need to bring a thing. Even spices were well stocked. There are 3 good sized bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Good showers. We loved the buildings common area and especially enjoyed sitting on the beach watching the sun set each day. This was the perfect getaway and we would recommend staying at Tom and Karen's condo to anyone. This condo gets a '2 Thumbs Up'! It was the perfect home away from home. Thanks for allowing us to rent your condo Tom/Karen. The Grigors

Slice of Paradise
To start off I would give this Condo Rental a five star rating. My wife and I stayed at this condo in Neuva Gorgona, which is located right on the beach for the month of Feb 2016. The Condo location and surrounding area were as wonderful and beautiful as it gets in Panama. The beach was soft white and black sand with very few rocks or seashells to bother your feet as you walked the long stretch of beach in either direction with your feet in or out of the ocean. Waking up in the morning to have coffee on the large balcony to hear the ocean waves crashing onto the shore and feeling the warm breezes wafting through the air with the smell of the ocean made it feel serene and calm every day. This was one of my greatest pleasures in the early morning hours.The view from the balcony was breath taking. The condo was equipped with everything you need to eat in if you so desired, but the restaurants in the area and in Coronado, a 15 minute car or cab ride away, were spectacular. The three bedrooms were all equiped with queen beds with very comfortable foam matresses, the linens and towels provided were also very nice. The TV's were newer flat screen models and had HDMI access. The local supermarkets were full of name brand products and reasonably priced but the best buy for local fruits and vegetables were the road side stands. The staff at Playa Serena was all very friendly, and although most did not speak English very well they would always wave and say ola with a smile. Our month stay there seemed way too short as we were just getting used to the place when we had to pack up and come home to Windsor Ontario Canada. I would go back without hesitation, if it is available. Tim & Cathie

Playa Gorgona,
We had a wonderful week in Panama and at the Condo with our 4 kids ages 13-21. The place was meticulously clean, comfortable and welcoming. Everything I could think of was there - boogie boards, blow dryer, scotch tape, baggies, and wraps, all cooking supplies, and much much more. Tons of towels, pillows, etc. Views were gorgeous from all sides. We walked out the back door of the building each afternoon to the pool and then down some steps to the beautiful beach where we watched the sunset each night. New Year's Eve - and beyond- fireworks were amazing. Security on both sides of the building was 24 hrs - I never ever felt unsafe. We spent most of each day touring within an hour of the condo - and had fun filled days, ziplining, boating to monkey island, snorkling, hiking in rainforests, near waterfalls, seeing the Canal museum, exploring downtown Panama City and more. Great vacation and family time!

Paridise in Panama
We rented this lovely condo for vacation and our first trip to Panama to see if we would want to consider retiring in Panama. Oh, what a beautiful place we found Panama to be and the condo had EVERYTHING you needed. Spacious rooms, a beautiful view of the mountains and the ocean. Tom had provided every possible piece of information , from driving directions, to where to eat, shop and visit. I would definitely recommend this condo to anyone wishing to travel to Panama and enjoy this beautiful country. We are already planning our next trip back, and Panama is definitely a major consideration for our upcoming retirement. You can't go wrong with Plya Serena 19D. If you go be sure to eat at the "Rincon Catracha" , this restaurant is as local as you can get, but the meals are outstanding. You literally eat on the homes front porch, I guarantee you will have one of the best meals you have ever had, and the price isn't bad either. My, wife, one of our daughters and myself had a three course meal, several drinks and awesome service and our bill was $26 total. Also walk to the local fish market and get fresh seafood for really great prices. I got 18 shrimp as big as my hand and 3 corvina(sea bass) and langostine for $30. There is a great pool, beach access and the most wonderful salt and pepper sand beach. The Panama Canal and El Valle de Anton are great day trips and easy to get to from the condo. Thanks Tom and Karen for sharing your condo.,
