This five-bedroom, six-bath house with a pool, service quarters and guesthouse is in the oceanside neighborhood of El Majagual, about 12 miles southwest of Panama City.

The area offers restaurants, cafes, supermarkets, gas stations, banks and schools, among other amenities. Panamá Pacífico International Airport offers domestic and some international flights.
