Puerto Armuelles is a charming beach town

This property is in the charming & unique beach town of Puerto Armuelles. It was built from scratch by Chiquita Banana starting in the late 1920s.

Chiquita put its own unique stamp on the town.  Puerto has distinct neighborhoods. The ones Chiquita built have a nostalgic feel with their tropical wooden houses on stilts. Because the town was built by Americans it has a different look and feel than other places in Panama.

As I mentioned already, this property is in the Las Palmas neighborhood. The neighborhood Chiquita built exclusively for it’s executives. It has the largest lots of any of the Chiquita neighborhoods.  It is also a neighborhood with very little traffic since there are no roads connecting Las Palmas to other neighborhoods.

In the video, Google maps indicate you can drive from Las Palmas through the Retorno neighborhood and into the San Vicente neighborhood.  But that is not the case. Las Palmas purposely blocks access to its neighborhood. The only way into Las Palmas, by car, is from downtown Puerto.  Although, as the crow flies, the waterfront in San Vicente is less than a mile from this property, by car, it is almost 2 miles.

Puerto Armuelles is home to about 25,000 people.  It has all the services and amenities needed to such a population.  So while you may choose to shop in David, you don’t need to go anywhere but Puerto Armuelles to meet your daily needs.   David is both the capital of and largest town in the Chiriqui Province  It takes about an hour and 15-minute to drive there from Puerto Armuelles.

“Puerto” is a wonderful place to live. It is an ideal place to enjoy a relaxing beach lifestyle and retirement.
