Rio Mar Premier Beachfront Community - Beach-Pools-Spas-Surf-Mountains

Rio Mar is an exclusive, beautifully maintained coastal community in Panama’s San Carlos district, set along the Pacific shoreline. Known for its dramatic natural scenery, private beachfront residences, and easy access to outdoor adventures, it offers a perfect balance of serenity and activities.

This 10th-floor condo in the Pacific (3) Tower overlooks the lush grounds and miles of pristine beachfront. With 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, full kitchen and living with approximately 1,900 sq. ft. (170 sqm) of space, it comfortably accommodates 4 adults and 2 children.

Stepping inside, you’re welcomed into an open, airy layout where floor-to-ceiling windows and patio doors frame sweeping ocean views. The design flows seamlessly from the kitchen to the living area, ideal for both conversation and relaxing while taking in the scenery.

The kitchen is fully outfitted with high-quality cookware, tableware, bakeware, and modern appliances. Included are a 5-burner gas stove and oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, deep single-basin sink, toaster-air fryer, 5-stage drinking water filtration system, microwave, blender, coffee maker, and more. Adjacent to the kitchen, the laundry room includes a full-size washer/dryer.

The dining room offers a warm, inviting atmosphere with seating for six and dimmable Edison-style lighting to set the mood for any occasion. The main living space includes two remote-controlled ceiling fans and a quiet, oversized mini-split HVAC unit to ensure year-round comfort.

After dinner, unwind in the living room on soft leather couches around a handcrafted local hardwood coffee table. Enjoy the sunset, settle in for a movie, or step out to the patio for a nightcap as the pools glow softly.

Both bedrooms feature high-quality comfort king mattresses, plush bedding, and a selection of pillows. Each room includes a wall-mounted TV, wardrobe, nightstands, a remote-controlled ceiling fan, and a quiet mini-split HVAC unit. The master bedroom’s corner window provides a stunning ocean view right from the bed.

An alcove adds flexibility with a queen-size foldout couch and a beautiful locally crafted hardwood desk paired with a 27" HD monitor. Family-friendly amenities such as board games, cards, and puzzles are also provided.

High-speed fiber internet connects to a Deco mesh network for seamless coverage throughout the home, supporting multiple users and streaming. A Sonos sound system placed throughout the living area offers rich audio or soft ambiance. (Use the Sonos app to connect your music.)

Rio Mar provides amenities for every interest. On the main floor, enjoy a spacious entertainment area with TVs, pool tables, ping-pong tables, and board games. Fitness enthusiasts can take advantage of the modern gym featuring treadmills, rowers, dumbbells, leg-press and squat machines, cable machines, and more.

After your workout—or a relaxing day by the water—the spa offers massages, manicures, steam rooms, and separate hot tubs for men and women. When hunger strikes, Maria’s Restaurant is conveniently located just steps away.

For those who prefer to relax poolside, the property features two saltwater pools and two freshwater pools. The central 25-meter pool is perfect for lap swimming, and ample patio furniture surrounds the area for lounging or dining.

A short two-minute walk leads you to the pristine beachfront—ideal for surfing, swimming, family activities, or simply unwinding. The large rock at the beach entrance is a favorite spot for morning meditation, and a few steps farther provides a peaceful space for yoga by the water. (The nearby Rio Mar Surf Club offers lessons.) During low tide, the beach expands for scenic walks or runs stretching up to 5 km in both directions.

After booking, you’ll receive a detailed amenities guide with videos, travel recommendations, local attractions, and more. A luxury car rental option is also available upon request.
The condo is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find WiFi, free WiFi, and a Smart TV. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.
