The Space

Oceanfront, two-bedroom apartments laid across low-rise buildings designed with privacy in mind, each one spanning only four units. You may also stay at a three-bedroom villa with a pool view and private garden: our very own Villa Panameña.

Guests enjoy three exclusive oceanfront pools, private beach palapas, and the vibrant energy of neighboring Vento Beach Club in what many guests consider the best spot in Playa Caracol.

Who It's For

The effortless connection to the ocean has made The Residences the favorite choice for surfers, who can walk to the break with their boards without a second thought. Groups of friends are drawn here for the same reason: a prime location, a small and social building scale, and a beachfront energy that is easy to settle into from the first afternoon.
