Santa Clara Estate: Private Chapel & 3 Homes on 13K m² - Coclé Panama
A Sacred Sanctuary Where Three Homes Become One Extraordinary Legacy
This remarkable Santa Clara estate transcends typical property ownership, offering a private compound where family gatherings feel like retreats and investment returns multiply across three distinct income streams. Few properties in Panama's coveted Pacific coast region offer such rare combination of spiritual sanctuary and practical prosperity.
About This Property
The estate's crown jewel—its intimate chapel—sets this property apart from every other luxury offering on Panama's Pacific coast. Whether hosting destination weddings, spiritual retreats, or simply providing a sacred space for family moments, this unique feature transforms the compound into something approaching the sacred. The three homes flow naturally across the expansive grounds, each offering its own character while contributing to the estate's unified vision of elevated coastal living.
Santa Clara's legendary beaches stretch just minutes from your private gates, where consistent Pacific swells meet golden sand and world-class fishing grounds beckon just offshore. This coveted stretch of Coclé Province has become Panama's answer to Costa Rica's Guanacaste—except with better infrastructure, stronger property rights, and prices that still make sense. The region's microclimate delivers endless summer, while mountain breezes from the continental divide ensure nights remain comfortable year-round.
At $1.5 million, this estate represents more than luxury—it's a legacy play. Multi-generational families discover the joy of shared vacations without shared spaces. Investors recognize the triple income potential from three separate rental units plus event hosting. Developers see the bones of Panama's most unique boutique retreat. The previous owners invested years creating something irreplaceable; the next owner inherits a turnkey empire.
Properties of this caliber and uniqueness surface rarely in Coclé Province. The combination of scale, income potential, and that extraordinary chapel creates a value proposition found nowhere else along Panama's Pacific coast. This is your invitation to own not just real estate, but a private world where memories multiply and returns compound across generations.
