Panama's Azuero Peninsula - Pedasi, in Search of The Tuscan Coast of the Americas.

Bordering the shores of the Pacific Ocean in Pedasi on the southern tip of the Azuero Peninsula lies the 40 hectare luxury beach development that is Andromeda Country Club. World-class features and unique design blend together with the natural elements of Pedasi to form an enchanting beach escape a mere four hours away from the bustle of Panama City. This gated beach community represents the first big development in Pedasi as well as an iconic beach lifestyle that offers elegance, adventure and recreation.

The development is only minutes away from the quiet fishing village of Pedasi, located in the Province of Los Santos. Pedasi has a small population mostly made up of warm and welcoming locals and expats who have tapped into the potential of the budding town and set up small shops, restaurants and supermarkets in the area. Though ultimately a tranquil town, Pedasi ranks as one of the most popular destinations for Panama’s annual Carnival with its vivid celebrations. Colorful well-maintained homes adorn the perfectly paved streets of the town, also home to Panama’s former president and Pedasi native Mireya Moscoso. Pedasi even has a small air strip that receives regional, charter and private flights.

Set amidst the vast richness of nature, culture and pristine beaches offered by Pedasi, residents of the Andromeda Country Club development have an array of attractions at their fingertips.

The tantalizing beaches of Pedasi are ideal for surfing as they come complete with breaks and swells for both beginner and experienced surfers. Playa Venao, a top surfing beach in Panama, is also in close proximity of Pedasi.

A diversity of fish such as amberjack, snapper, dolphin and tuna in the area make sport fishing a very popular attraction in Pedasi. Lucky beach-goers can even catch a glimpse of the vibrant fish that ride the waves of the crystalline waters.

Scuba diving and snorkeling are available at Isla Iguana Wildlife Refuge, a short boat-ride from any beach in Pedasi. The island has the only white-sand beach in the Azuero Peninsula and is haven to a vast population of iguanas, birds, marine wild life and the biggest well-preserved coral reef in the Gulf of Panama. Humpback whales can also be observed during their migration swim through the Island’s channel.

Andromeda Country Club offers sprawling beachfront lots of up to 1500m2 and condominiums of up to 100m2 that offer gorgeous ocean views as the development overlooks Playa El Toro. Drawing from Mediterranean, Panamanian and Mexican concepts, dazzling model designs for beach houses and apartments have been created by Zulcher and renowned architecture group Mallol & Mallol - a firm with a 25-year trajectory throughout Latin America.

Among the countless amenities to come in this Pedasi beach development, there is a Beach Club with adult and kiddy swimming pools, a sundeck with beach access as well as a spell-bounding view of the piercing blue waters that front the property; a gourmet restaurant that offers a variety of delectable fresh fish daily; a bar and fully-equipped gym.

There is also a business-ready meeting area for those who need to catch up on business, as well as a party area for those in the mood to celebrate. The Fishing Club offers the opportunity to enjoy deep-sea fishing for which Pedasi is famous.

Optimum relaxation and pampering can be achieved at the spa, while several game courts including volleyball, basketball, racquetball, tennis and mini-gulf serve for more athletic recreation. The development includes walking trails for nature lovers who can enjoy long serene afternoon strolls and observe the two natural seasonal creeks that run through the property.

Other services include concierge, maid services, high-speed internet and telephone lines. There is also a five-star hotel that sits on the property. Most importantly there is 24-hour onsite security.

Crafted to cater to the adventurous, the fishing enthusiast and those simply seeking lazy days on the beach, this Pedasi beach development is set to begin construction early next year.
