What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Nueva Gorgona?

"Nueva Gorgona is a town situated in the Central region of Panama and is a popular destination for expatriates due to its close proximity to Panama City. Expat homes and apartments in this area tend to be modern and typically come with all the amenities one could need. Expats can typically expect apartments and homes to be spacious, tastefully furnished, and often feature modern amenities such as air conditioning, wifi, washer and dryers, and kitchen appliances. Many properties in Nueva Gorgona tend to have bigger balconies that offer spectacular views of the beach and ocean. Security is usually tight in the area and many buildings have 24-hour security guards for added protection," said another expat in Nueva Gorgona, Panama.

"I own/rent apartments in both Nueva Gorgona (Royal Palm -RP) and near Panama City/Panama Pacifico at Casa Bonita -CB. Given the two I like the Beach in Gorgona best - its really unique as it is in part a black volcanic rock beach that shimmers in the moonlight - amazing and fantastic- also I do like to cool off in the different pools there. People bash Gorgona because of proximity to shopping - I thinks its better proximity to shopping than Casa Bonita above. The last couple of times I stayed at CB there was oddly police men checking for a pass - to go the quicker "back way" to shop at Panama Pacifico (that you can buy for $5 but oddly again they can't process them fast enough for you to get one). CB is much closer and right across the americas bridge from Panama City. But going to Panama City (for me) is an all day event in traffic from CB. But that depends on planning around traffic. CB would be the place I would stay if I constantly needed advanced healthcare. Also there are pools at CB - you have to have a Pearl Club membership to swim and use the nice facilities there. Also I like CB to watch marine traffic and ships pass by going into the Canal. Also kind of funny story - Gorgona has dogs barking and cocks crowing all the time - but at CB I wake up to hear a howler monkey in the jungle - that the locals say is "just a dog" ? who's pulling who's leg. But anyway as far as square meter, beds bathrooms both places are very comparable," wrote a member who made the move to Nueva Gorgona, Panama.
