Wake up hearing the waves in your ocean-view room and be at the beach in less than a two minute walk! Discover the perfect home-away-from-home and relax in a comfy hammock between surf sessions at one of the best surf spots in town. Your comfortable room has one King bed and one Twin bed and comes with its own private bathroom. The shared kitchen is fully equipped and you can enjoy spacious living/dining areas with outdoor seating. Come stay with us to enjoy the best of Playa Venao! There are five rooms for rent in the house, so if you need space for more than 2 adults, please contact us to arrange renting multiple rooms for your trip. You can even rent out all five rooms and have the whole house for your group! Our house is one of the original buildings ever built in Playa Venao. It features traditional architecture, stunning views of the whole bay from its wrap-around porch and second-floor balcony, and a forest setting where monkeys and parrots enjoy the fruit from our mango trees. We have renovated the house to restore it to its intended beauty, while adding modern touches and updates. We have retained its rustic charm, high ceilings, and authentic feel. The house is located up a steep hill, but it's only a 2 minute walk to the beach - you just walk down our outdoor stairs and down the driveway across the road. Your bedroom with private bathroom is on the main floor along with three other rooms for guests. On the upper floor you'll find the shared living room and dining area as well as the shared kitchen and one more guest room. We also live upstairs with our two daughters, who love to welcome our visitors from all over the world! We offer full-service laundry options, with wash/dry/fold service starting at $8 per load. Our house is a non-smoking facility (including vapes), but you are welcome to smoke outside. We offer a room refresh every few days, including clean towels and clean sheets. We can also leave you to your privacy if you prefer to opt out completely. Our family (myself, my husband, and our two daughters) live in the house and will be your hosts - along with our friendly cat, Dolores! Our girls love to entertain other kids, and we love to meet new people. But we respect everyone's privacy when you're not up for socializing. Our house is on the quieter west side of the beach, which is less busy than the east end, where the main part of town is. It's an easy 20 minute walk along the beach to the main area of town where you will find a great grocery store, lots of restaurants, cafes, shops, the ATM and the gas station. However, you could easily spend most of your time on this end of the beach. It's only a 2 minute walk to the Surf Dojo Cafe and La Barca Beach Bar across the road from us, where you can enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner options. It's also only 2 minutes to Eco Venao's Cafe and Restaurant if you'd like to enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner surrounded by the jungle. 10 minutes further west you'll find Canas, a charming authentic Panamanian village, which also has a supermarket. 20 minutes further west is Tonosi, with bigger Supermarkets, pharmacies, a rural hospital, and other amenities. 30 minutes to the east is Pedasi, a more touristy town with many restaurants, supermarkets, pharmacies, shops, a private medical clinic, and the public hospital. Lots of people walk everywhere in Playa Venao. We can also offer you a lift if you need help getting somewhere. We offer free parking onsite if you're coming with a vehicle, and it's easy to find parking wherever you need to go in town. There are also several private taxis if you need help getting around. We can also connect you with the right people for scooter or bicycle rentals. We offer surfboard rentals and surf lessons (with the best instructor for beginners on the beach!) as well as various tours of the area. We can also put together customized Surf Camp Packages for you - please contact us for details.
