Where to Retire in Coronado Beach and Home Prices
There are numerous condominium projects on or near the beach that are popular with retirees. Many of them are gated. Prices have been rising. A typical price might be $2300 per square meter (more than $200/sq.ft.). These developments are popular both with expats from North and South America as well as from wealthy Panamanians looking for a getaway. High season rents for nice buildings with ocean views tend to be between $1500-$2000 per month, with fairly large apartments selling in the best buildings in the high $300s. Interior developments will be less.
