I stayed here with a few of my friends for a short getaway in February. This place is great! The condo is exactly like the pictures. Molly is sweet and helpful! Everything we needed was there, including pots and pans, cell phone, even computer and wifi. I have rented a lot of vacation condos over the years and this was one of my favorite experiences. We had the pool mostly to ourselves (you can see the pool from the living room windows) the whole time. Note: it can be slightly difficult to get a taxi on Avenida Balboa on weekend nights. Just be patient and one will eventually come. Who needs to rush when you are in Panama??? Also, we almost locked ourselves out of the place one night. Read Molly's instructions on this point carefully! Everything else was a piece of cake. You can walk to Calle Uruguay from here easy. Not too far from Casco Viejo and El Cangrejo, either. No cab ride in the city was over a few dollars.Recommended for: Girls getaway, adventure seekers.
Owner response: We make every effort to provide you with information about Panama and our location so you can make the most of your stay in Panama. We are happy to hear that are efforts are appreciated. There are Radio Taxis available in Panama if you don't want to hail one. You can wait in the condo or in the comfortable lobby. Once the taxi arrives the Security Guard will ring you at the condo. It's "not" possible to lock yourself out of the condo, but it is possible for someone who is inside the condo to lock the rest of the party out. How? We have a deadbolt lock on the door on the inside that is not accessible via key from the outside. So if a member of your party stays back at the condo, they should not lock the one particular deadbolt that is not accessible via key. Otherwise if the member of the party staying back falls asleep and can't hear the doorbell you will be locked out of the unit they unlock the deadbolt from the inside.

Great location in general...even better for enjoying the City's Carnaval. The apartment is as described. The directions and suggestions provided by Molly are very helpful, especially if not familiar with the country. I may even look into becoming a neighbor. One thing I suggest when checking out is to call the security officer first to let him know if you have a car as there isn't an exit button to open the gate. Finally, although this seems out of the owners hands, the gym is rather limited, so if that is part of your expectations, keep this in mind. Needless to say, I would consider this property during my return!Recommended for: Romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, sightseeing, families with young children, age 55+.

I attended a wedding with my family in Panama City and rented this great condo. Molly was very helpful with sending us maps of how to get to the different locations of the wedding festivities. We never had problems with hailing taxis as the apt. is one block from Avenida Balboa, a main avenue. On one occasion it was raining when we needed to get a taxi and the security person at the condo called one for us. The property was well maintained and very clean. It looked exactly like the photos. The apt. is centrally located and near Casco Viejo, as well as several shopping malls. We felt very safe there and would definitely stay there again if we ever return to Panama. Thanks Molly!!!! I would definitely recommend this property.Recommended for: People with disabilities, families with teenagers, girls getaway, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, sightseeing, families with young children, age 55+.

This is now my fourth stay in this apartment and each time we have had a wonderful time, you get much more space for the money. The apartment is beautifully decorated, very comfortable, safe with an outstanding view and it just always feels like I belonged once I enter the door. Without doubt will stay again on my next trip!Recommended for: People with disabilities, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway, families with young children, age 55+.

Year Purchased: 2008
About the owner: Alberto and Molly Sasso, are the owners of this property. Alberto was born in Panama. Molly was born in the United States. We met at the University of Maryland. As fate would have it, we moved to Panama and lived in Panama for several years together. We got married in Panama City but, eventually we found ourselves back in Maryland. We now have 2 children, they are 7 and 10. We love Panama! The warm climate, the beaches, the fresh tropical fruits, the fresh seafood, the beautiful flora. Panama is a wonderful place. The picture was taken on a boat in the Panama Canal during a transit cruise.
Why the Owner Chose Panama City:
The majority of Alberto's family lives in Panama, so we visit often. We wanted a place where our family of 4 could stay for several weeks at a time and be comfortable and relaxed. We wanted to be in the heart of the city close to the entertainment and nightlife, but in a well secure location. We also wanted something we could actually live comfortably in if we decide to relocate back to Panama in the future, either as a family or as a retired couple. Welcome to our home away from home in Panama City, Panama.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
We are centrally located with easy access to both the North and South Corridors. So when visiting family who don't live in the heart of the city, we can get there and back quickly. Being in the heart of the city, means a short, cheap, taxi ride to the activities we enjoy. We do live in the United States and we know the standards that most people enjoy. So we took the time and expense to provide those extras that you may not find at other rentals, like Egyptian Cotton Sheets and Towels, Stainless Steel Cookware, Refrigerator with Filter Water and Ice Maker, Coffee Maker with a grinder, a Scale to Weigh your Luggage, Laptop with video camera and memory card slot so you can upload your photos immediately. Our administrators are actually Alberto's family members. So if you have an issue it's addressed immediately. They take pride in meeting the standards of our renters. For an additional fee they will provide taxi service to and from the airport in their SUV. The maid has been working for the family for many years and is excellent and well trusted. So if you are staying more than 7 days, her once a week service is included. For an additional fee she can come twice a week. Our 24 hour security guards. They don't work directly for us, but they have truly been a great gift. I get many compliments about them and how helpful they are with taxis and general information. I have a personal Google Map of Panama. Including restaurants, shops, tourist interests, beaches, bookstores, casinos and if you ask about a location and it's not on the map, I will do my best find it and add it on the map. Hence my map continues to grow.
