Do you have any suggestions for other beach towns to check out? Please let us know in the comments below! 🙌
Yes!!! Panama Car Rental is great. We loved John, best service!
They are a great business and Oscar was really great to meet while we were there, thanks for pointing them out, as we would strongly suggest looking them up when looking into the area! 🙌
Love your energy. I’m taking notes for when I come to Panama!
Hey Tanya! Thanks so much, we’re glad you’re liking our videos and definitely happy to see another member of LCA fam joining our journey! Any specific plans on when you’d be coming this way??
Coronado is awesome, and you've done a great overview. Look forward to your day on the beach when the weather allows. Check out Buenaventura as already suggested by another. Also heard that Punta Chame is good as well as some of the beaches near David.
That’s two votes for Buena Ventura, think it might be going on the list! We are planning on going in the direction of David soon, so the city and the near by beaches are definitely coming! 🙌
Great Video ..Great info 💯..Thanks Guys..🇵🇦🌎
Hey hey, happy Saturday Gregorious! Thanks so much, we’re glad you liked it! 🙌 Coronados such an awesome town!
Ran into you two in a hotel in Costa Rican, I enjoyed your videos on Costa Rica. Will be in PANAMA in a few weeks will check out some of your suggestions. Keep those videos coming. Enjoy!
Yes!! Hi! We remember, we had the early morning flight! Nice to hear from you again! ☺️💜✈️
y'all are adorable - thanks for the great info! stay safe....
Hey Glen! Thank you so much for the kind words! Glad you’re enjoying the videos and we will definitely be keeping safe, with a dash of adventure and seeking discomfort 🙂🙌.
Entertaining, likeable, real, informative, helpful. Thank you.
Ah thank you so much! We’re glad you found the video both informational and entertaining! 🙂🙌
Great video..Thanks
Thank you! 🙌 Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Hey! I work for a Gas & Electric Utility in the USA and Michels is our gas construction contractor. I work in GIS, so I get to interact with the foremen a fair bit. Thanks for the video 😀
Ah nice! Thanks for reaching out, glad you enjoyed the video! 🙂
Panamá 🇵🇦
Excellent
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video 🙂🙌
Great video! My parents live in Panama for the winter. I love it there!
Thanks! 🙂 It is absolutely a beautiful country and Coronado is such an awesome area to be in as well!
@@KyleJess absolutely, we’ve driven around Panama many times, so much untouched beauty as well
Definitely! We love visiting panama. 🇵🇦
The Best beach towns in Panama are Buena Aventura which is like 20 min from coronado
Ahh, thanks for the suggestion Roberto! 🙌We’ll have to check it out! Hope you enjoyed our video🙂
@@KyleJess i did very nice and yes go check out Buena AVentura you will love it
I used to live there! So beautiful
Oh that’s awesome! It’s such a great place for sure! 🙂🇵🇦🙌
Very interesting and cheers 🥰🙏🤩🙏
Ah thank you so much! We're glad you enjoyed it 🙂🙌
Go to Santa Clara beach...beautiful WHITE sand beach. Eat at El Restaurante Las Bougainvilleas right on the beach. ⛱
Hi Glen, thanks for the suggestions/recommendations! We always love getting that inside scoop! We were actually through that beach club and golf course a couple weeks ago on our trip to Anton when we took the wrong bus 🤣. Looks amazing and might have to be a little day trip we make for sure!
@@KyleJessTravels Santa Clara is where my grandpa had a beach house and we used to go there every other weekend as a big happy family. GREAT memories. I love the way Jenn laughs.... hilarious. She is full of life. Y'all are very complementary. I was born and raised in the Panama Canal Zone and lived there for the first 18 years of my life until I came up to the USA to attend University. Anton, as I recollect, has great little sweet candies manufactured there by the locals - the "huevitos de leche/sugar and brown sugar with milk sweet little eggs wrapped in very colorful paper", etc. Also "suspiritos".
I can't believe the main road leading into Coronado is STILL all full of potholes and totally uneven with no shoulders on either side....it was just like that in the 1980's. You would think one of the many muti-millionaires in Panama would pay to have an asphalt company totally repave all the roads in Coronado, proper.
@@glenntucker69 Yep, still potholes haha.
Jess is definitely full of life and does have a contagious laugh that keeps me smiling everyday! 🙂
How long have you guys been together? You are both so genuinely happy! Love your videos!❤
Awee thank you!! 💜 We’ve been together for over 6 years!
Hi! Love your channel! How long is from Coronado to Tocumen International airport? Also can you provide some Airbnb? Thanks
Hi Yessy, thanks so much! We’re glad you’re enjoying our videos!
Coronado is roughly an hour and a half away from the Tocumen Airbort, but we’ve been caught in traffic before between Panama City and Coronado. That traffic can sometimes extend that drive time by upwards of an hour… But still fairly close!
We are currently in an Airbnb in a condo complex called PH Ibiza, with a few basic studio and one bedroom style apartments. However, we have extended our trip by a few days to specifically check out this cool and unique boutique hotel that is also available on Airbnb, looks awesome! We are going to be sharing that in a soon upcoming video though, so don’t want to give too much away on that just yet 😉.
When are you planning on coming this way?
@@KyleJess where can we find you. We're there in about 2wks
@@millionaireby1524 We are actually leaving in about a week so we might be just missing each other unfortunately!
This video is what I needed to confirm Im moving to Coronado. I will let you know once there inMarch and invite you for an Argentinian BBQ.
Glad you enjoyed it and helped make the decision easier! We haven’t been back since, but loved it there and will be back in the near future! Let us know for sure, sounds great 🙂
Good 😃👍🙂👍
Thank you! 😊
Thank you. Just rented the golf cart from Sarah 😊
Awesome! Enjoy 🙂🙌
Hi! Great video, we're heading back to Coronado in mid-June and this video got us pumped! Quick question, what are you using to film?
That’s awesome! Coronado is such an awesome little beach town, we’re loving it here and have some more videos we’re planning to share on the area soon!
We are currently filming on a combination of a Canon m50 (with multiple lenses), GoPro Hero8, iPhone 11 and Mavic Mini! We edit through Adobe premier pro and after effects 🙂.
@@KyleJess Thanks for the reply! Keep up the great content. Maybe we'll see you around the neighborhood 😃
Was that a Michael Scott reference I heard? If so, BONUS POINTS for you... great video, guys; very helpful information!
It certainly was! You'll find The Office references coming quite often on our channel haha
@@KyleJess 🤣🤣🤣
Is Coronado far from the city? How long does it take to get there from the city? Great vid by the way 😊
It’s around an 1hr to 1.5 hr, depending on traffic. It’s definitely not that far from the city. Thanks for watching!! 😍🙌
Jess and Kyle- watching your video and knowing it's around 92 degrees F, is it bearable? Or is it a heat intensive, sweat dripping experience everyday in Coronado VS mountain area?
What month is it during this video?
May of last year 🙂
What are health costs, internet and gas, water and electricity and council tax
We stayed a long term stay in an Airbnb, so sorry we unfortunately can’t offer much on that information, as it was all included and our nomad insurance covered the heath cost side of things.
Can you drive a golf cart anywhere in Coronado. And do you need a special permit for driving one
Yeah, pretty much everywhere, you’ll see them all over and we didn’t need any permit to rent it. But not sure about ownership
I'm coming there in a week, from the states and looking for a nice, reasonably priced hotel to stay in Coronado, Panama, any suggestions?
I'm looking for a 2 & 2 place to purchase & retire there.
Thank you in advance...
Hey, sorry for the delayed response! Sure you’ve already found where you’re staying, but we went with Airbnb all throughout Panama, apart from a couple of over nights in Panama City. There are some really great apartment complexes in Coronado, with awesome rates for short term/airbnb stays! Hope that helps and that you have a great time, best of luck with the purchase and move as well! 🙂🙌🇵🇦
It's tripe. The lining of the stomach, so not quite intestines. Still an acquired taste for sure 😆
Haha we think it's a mind over matter situation more than anything cause the taste was actually pretty good! But once we found out what we were eating, we put it down pretty quick and was hard to stomach anymore haha. 😂
You just ate tripe. Mondongo is tripe, that is no beef my goodness.LOL
Haha yeah it was a bit of a shock initially, but actually wasn't that bad, just all in the mind haha. 🙌
What is Pedasi like?
We did not make it to Pedasi personally, but we had that area suggested to us multiple times and have heard really good things about it. We were just there on a limited time and so couldn't see everything. But a list is starting to form of reasons for us to go back, I'm thinking that Pedasi might be on that list 😉
boring
What about the crime stats of Panama? I read there are parts of Panama the State Dept advises against visiting due to all the drug trafficking and crime.
We didn't have any issues while we were there and Coronado specifically is a gated community with guarded gates etc. We had heard there are some issues with theft from time to time, but nothing major and we didn't see anything in terms of heavy drug use or anything while we were in the area. That being said, we're sure some parts aren't the safest for expats and travelers, as with any country
I'm sure that the crime where you live is worse than Panama as a whole. Why do People talk bad about somewhere they've never been? America is the most violent place on 🌍/they have the audacity to issue a travel warning to another Country.
Mondongo are intestines! 🤣😂😅
Haha yes we found that out after. Acquired tastes are often talked about, Mondongo has an acquired texture we’ll say haha
Beef stomach is Tripe
Hi Kyle, sent you a mp on messenger.
It is a terrible beach, better are to be found on the north east where the billionaires hang out or south of David....
Haha there are definitely some other beautiful regions, but we felt it was an amazing beach town and had a great central location to other parts of the country 🙂🇵🇦
