"A typical expat home or apartment in Playa Panama, is often a spacious, modern property with a blend of indoor and outdoor living spaces. These homes usually feature large windows or glass doors to allow for plenty of natural light and to take advantage of the stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The interiors are often designed with a tropical aesthetic in mind, featuring warm colors, natural materials, and local artwork. Many homes have open-plan living areas, with a seamless flow between the kitchen, dining, and living spaces. The kitchens are typically equipped with modern appliances and ample storage space. Bedrooms are usually generously sized, often with en-suite bathrooms. Outdoor living is a significant aspect of life in Costa Rica, so many homes have large terraces or balconies, often with a private pool or access to a communal pool. These outdoor spaces are typically furnished for dining and relaxation, and they often overlook the beach, the ocean, or lush tropical gardens. Despite the tropical location, most homes are equipped with modern conveniences such as air conditioning, high-speed internet, and cable TV. Security is also a priority, with many properties located within gated communities that offer 24-hour security services. In terms of location, many expat homes are situated close to the beach, within walking distance of local amenities such as restaurants, shops, and healthcare facilities. However, some prefer the tranquility of a more secluded location, nestled in the hills or surrounded by forest. Overall, a typical expat home in Playa Panama offers a comfortable, luxurious lifestyle, blending modern conveniences with the natural beauty of the Costa Rican landscape," commented one expat who made the move to Playa Panama, Costa Rica.
