About the host
Hosted by MARC Fornos
La Concordia was born from a conversation between two Spanish teenage siblings on a beach in Southeast Asia, where they daydreamed about a future in which they would create something together.Marc and Eva Fornos grew up between Spain, France and Belgium, and thanks to their international education, they became very curious about the different cultures around the globe. With every family trip, they felt more and more passionate about traveling, and so hotels became their second home and a focal point when choosing a new destination.This passion they shared drew them to enter the world of hospitality, completing their university studies, Marc in Barcelona and Eva in Switzerland.Little did they know that, shortly after graduating, their dream would begin to become a reality…While Marc was gaining experience working for an internationally renowned hotel chain in Barcelona, Eva decided to cross the pond to support a friend opening his hotel on a Panamanian Pacific beach. A few days after landing, she began exploring every corner of this country with which she ended up falling deeply in love.A couple of years later walking through Casco Viejo, which at that time was mostly composed of dilapidated buildings, Eva discovered a property that seemed to be taken from a classic movie and of spectacular beauty, which coincidently was for sale. Her vision was clear and her focus even clearer. She called her family to tell them about her discovery, and so they decided to begin making their dream, a reality.In June 2012, the Fornos family bought what was, at that time, only the façade of what we see today. In November 2014, Marc moved to Panama to supervise the interior construction and exterior restoration with his sister and, in mid-2017, their dream finally came true.Today la Concordia Boutique Hotel has received the Grand Prize of the Contest for the Best Works of Architecture of the year 2018 and has become an icon of tourism in Casco Viejo and Panama City.More important...
Why they chose this property
Casco Antiguo captured our hearts because of its unique blend of historical significance and vibrant cultural life. As Panama’s most historic district, it reflects centuries of stories and diverse influences, from Spanish colonial architecture to the dynamic communities that bring it to life today. We knew that if we wanted to create a hospitality experience that truly immersed guests in Panama’s spirit, Casco Antiguo was the perfect setting.
The neighborhood’s charm lies in its contrasts—cobblestone streets lined with beautifully preserved colonial buildings, colorful murals, and plazas bustling with locals and visitors alike. It’s a place where history and modernity coexist, where you can step out of your door and find yourself surrounded by both iconic landmarks and hidden gems waiting to be discovered. For us, choosing Casco Antiguo meant embracing a neighborhood that inspires connection, exploration, and a deep appreciation for Panama’s past and present.
By establishing La Concordia and Casa Arango here, we aimed to be part of this lively, evolving community and to offer our guests an authentic experience within the heart of it. We love sharing the joy of Casco Antiguo’s rich character, from its historical landmarks to its thriving art and culinary scenes, giving visitors a meaningful stay that goes beyond the walls of our properties.

Every decision, from the materials used to the design elements incorporated, was made with care to ensure that the spirit of our family’s history was preserved while creating a welcoming space for guests.
One of the most distinctive aspects of Casa Arango is its ambiance, which invites guests to feel at home from the moment they walk in. Unlike a typical vacation rental, Casa Arango exudes warmth and personality, reflecting our family’s love for Panama and for Casco Antiguo’s beauty. We’ve infused the space with elements that embody the essence of the neighborhood, including carefully chosen artwork and furnishings that harmonize with the building’s original architecture.
