The turn off to our property is a gravel road located on the RIGHT, EXACTLY 23 kilometers from the Pan America Highway in David. Set your odometer to ZERO when you enter the road to Boquete at the Ricard Perez Totota DealershipYou will know our entrance road because it is next to a very small concrete bus stop which is located about 50 meters BEFORE a small Hotel (on the right side also) with a a Red sign "Bosque". There is also a small metal sign advertising Mountain View Farms, only 25 - 30 feet beyond the road that leads to our project. It is MUCH better to come to visit with one of our small team. We are NOT the type of people who pressure clients. At the same time, our gate is often locked, and in order foy you to know where lot lines are, what lots are available, and what we are doing in the project in general, you will be muc better served by calling ahead and making an appointment, so that you can learn see the lot plans, and ask us questions. We will be very open and honest with you about everything Our ethics and high standards are the reason that we have clients, and we are not the "hard-sell"
Our Project is located in Boquete, Chiriqui Province, Panama
Our properties are in Boquete Panama, a thirty five to forty minute drive from the regional airport in David. This airport has become an "International Airport" in the past 18 months, with flights and connections now coming in and out of San Jose, Costa Rica. In the coming couple of years direct flights from North America and other locations are planned, which will be a great convenience to those of us living in the area.
David is the second largest city in Panama, and is just a one hour flight from Panama City; there are several flights daily from Panama to David. Please note that you use a DIFFERENT airport for flights within Panama (see below) than Tocumen Airport, where flights arrive internationally.
David offers most of the conveniences of most modern cities, such as a new private hospital, private schools, shopping centers and super markets, cinemas and hundreds of businesses and professional services. This is where you'll come for major shopping trips, or to go to the movies, when you live in Boquete.
To get to our current Project, MOUNTAIN VIEW FARMS, coming from David :
The Road that leads to our project is a gravel road located on the RIGHT, exactly 23 kilometers from the Pan American Highway in David.
Get onto the Pan America Highway and the first business you pass is the Ricardo Perez Toyota Dealership on your left.
Set your trip odometer to ZERO when you enter this "highway" which leads to Boquete, and start driving, leaving the Ricard Perez Toyota Dealership
Drive toward Boquete and go exactly 23 kilometers
After 22 kilometers you'll see the "Emerald Drive" housing development with homes, out in open fields, on your left. Our entrance road is across from Emerald Drive - exactly 23 kilometers up the highway from the Ricardo Perez Toyota Dealership. There is a very small concrete bus stop, just to the right of the gravel road that will lead you to us. Go 1.2 km down the gravel road to our project on the right.
It is much better to come to visit with one of our small team of 3. We are not the type of people who pressure clients. At the same time, our gate is usually locked, and will be until we have some finished homes & residents. In order foy you to know where lot lines are, what lots are available, and what we are doing in the project in general, you will be muc better served by calling ahead and making an appointment. This way you can see lot plans, and ask us questions. We will be very open and honest with you about everything. Our ethics and high standards are the reason that we have clients.

Other important information and travel tips - cell phones, local safe & reliable transportation:
In the coming 1-2 years, direct flights from North America will definitely be coming into the airport in David.
Until then, one typically flies into Panama City's Tocumen Airport. Continental, American and several other major airlines serve Panama as it is the banking and business center for all of Latin America.
There are hundreds of hotels in Panama City, which is very modern and safe with excellent shopping and hundreds of restaurants, many gourmet quality. A tour of the Panama Canal and the surrounding area including Amador and the restaurants at the end of that AMADOR causeway, make for an excellent day & evening when you arrive in Panama. Have dinner at the end of the Amador Causeway, and you will have an beautiful view of Panama City !
For transportation from the airports & in PANAMA City, we recommend that you contact Mr. Jose Saenz, the owner of Bocas Frog Transport & tour company. He operates 5 - 7 private taxis, plus vans, driven by polite, mostly bilingual drivers, and they seem to always charge LESS than regular city cabs - and are MUCH more reliable and comfortable. If you are having Jose pick you up upon your arrival in Panama be SURE to send him all of the following information:
- your full name and how many people you are traveling with
- What hotel you are staying at in Panama City
- Your airline and flight number, and what city you are departing from
- Your scheduled arrival time

* Again, remember that it is necessary to dial a "6" prefix for cell phones in Panama
We recommend that if you plan to spend more than a few days in Panama or will be returning to the country, that you purchase a cell phone in your first couple of days in Panama. They can be bought for as little as $15 and are available at one of the many cell phone stores in Panama City or David. We recommend that you buy a telephone that works on one of the 3 major networks. Movistar is the service we use, but there are several companies. Purchase a $10 or $15 telephone usage card. The store where you buy the phone will show you how to input your "minutes". Once you have done this, you will have a permanent phone number in panama. which is a great convenience. These phones will call anywhere in the world. To get to David, and then to the Boquete area and our properties, you'll leave Panama City using the domestic, regional airport in ALLBROOK. Allbrook is a 10 - 15 minute taxi ride from Panama City, and Jose Saenz's drivers can take you there. Jose Saenz can also make your flight reservations for your DOMESTIC flights to and from the city of David for you, at no additional cost.
