Pearl Island

UNIQUENESS IS IN OUR NATURE

About Pearl Island

Creating an authentic private island destination requires a particular respect for nature and heritage. Only a few miles offshore South of Panama City rests a unique island resort waiting to be discovered. With almost 30 kilometers of coastline, 14 private beaches and one of the richest marine and bird sanctuaries on the planet, Pearl Island breaks new ground, environmentally, economically and socially, for the region. A world all its own that feels so far away, and that is yet so very close. Once at the heart of the international pearl trade, Pearl Island possesses rich ties to Panamanian history and culture. With an existing population of 150 locals in the small village of Pedro de Cocal, it embraces a rich biological diversity as well as its own cultural legacy, recently discovered to be dating back over 5,000 years. Pearl Island is a wildlife preserve all of its own, resting in the serenity of a unique and dynamic ecosystem that includes marine and bird sanctuaries and coral reefs.

Real Estate

La Peninsula is the first phase of Pearl Island’s development scheme, designed by Hart Howerton, a renowned resort master planner and creator of some of the world’s most successful residential and resort communities.

Residences

The design, volume and location of The Residences at La Peninsula are the result of Pearl Island’s team, who carefully considered and planned every detail.

Home Sites

All home sites offer generous living areas alongside a detailed overall layout, which includes basic services such as paved roads, running water, electricity, phone and Internet connections.

Villas de la Marina

Nestled in the untouched hillside overlooking the marina and right next to the water, La Peninsula includes 5 independent two-story buildings.

Apartments

In conjunction with its sparkling Beach Club and Marina, La Peninsula offers exquisitely designed 3-bedroom apartments spread across seven exclusive buildings.

Location

As the third largest island in Las Perlas archipelago, Pearl Island (geographically named Isla Pedro Gonzalez) is only 40 nautical miles South of Panama City, an easy approach from nearly any part of the world. Its ideal geographical location also benefits from a constant tropical climate outside the hurricane zone.

Marina & Beach Club

La Peninsula represents Pearl Island’s first phase of development, located on the Zancadilla peninsula part of the settlement. Designed by world-renowned New York architecture and master planning firm Hart Howerton, La Peninsula provides a limited number of home sites, residences and apartments for sale. This is complemented with a variety of leisure activities and services that are fully integrated with the island’s natural environment, allowing residents and guests the unique opportunity of having an authentic private island experience.

Ritz Carlton Reserve

A Ritz Carlton Reserve resort with 80 rooms and 80 branded residences is to be developed on Playa Don Bernardo and Playa Mague, two of the most spectacular beaches of Pearl Island, with a total area of 50 hectares. The resort will include a main lodge, a beach club, spa, kid’s club, a dive and fishing center, tennis courts, retail and other leisure facilities.
