This one-bedroom Philippe Starck-designed residence turns daily life into a curated escape—fusing effortless sophistication with the vibrant energy of Avenida Balboa.

Property Details
This one-bedroom condominium doesn’t just frame views; it transforms them into the emotional backdrop of your day. The open living space flows with Starck’s signature playfulness—clever storage disappears into sculptural walls, lighting shifts with your mood, and the boundary between indoors and the endless blue outside dissolves. Mornings feel like private gallery viewings; evenings, a front-row seat to the city lights as they ignite across Avenida Balboa.
The residence comes turnkey furnished, every piece curated under Starck’s vision so you slip straight into the luxury, no effort required. Yet beyond your door, the 75-story vertical resort offers a lifestyle of artful leisure: infinity pools that seem to spill into the ocean, a spa curated for sensory restoration, and communal lounges designed for the kind of spontaneous encounters that become global friendships. This is not a building; it’s a statement of arrival.
Step outside and Avenida Balboa delivers the best of Panama City—morning runs along the Cinta Costera’s palm-lined promenade, a quick drive to the UNESCO-listed Casco Viejo where cobblestone romance meets rooftop cocktail bars, and the gleaming financial district just minutes away. The address is the emblem of Panama’s renaissance, a capital that leads Central America in growth and expat satisfaction.
Priced at $350,000, this is an entry point into a market where oceanfront luxury typically commands far more. With Panama’s economy expanding and foreign investment surging, owning at YOO means participating in a golden age while living it. This condo is more than a home; it’s your margin in the sky, a tangible piece of the country’s ascendant story.
