"In the furnished condos along the beach, kitchens have all appliances.. these include refrigerator, stove and microwave, many even have washers/dryers, dishwashers, and garbage disposals. They are often furnished with toasters, blenders, coffee makers and other small kitchen appliances and table service too. Units usually have air conditioners too. It's a good idea to check the kitchen out thoroughly and see what is there," explained one expat living in Nueva Gorgona, Panama.
"Rental properties in Panama commonly include kitchen appliances such as refrigerator, oven and stove, common laundry appliances such as washer and dryer, air conditioning units, fans and window screens to keep out insects, and occasionally furnishings, depending on the agreement between the tenant and the landlord. Additionally, it is common practice for landlords to provide households with basic, essential utilities such as water, electricity and internet," said another in Panama.
