The Bouzy Group Unveils First Westin-Branded Residences in Panama

PANAMA CITY, PANAMA, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Bouzy Group has announced the launch of The Residences by Westin, Playa Bonita, marking a significant milestone as the first Westin-branded beachfront condo-hotel in Panama. This innovative development, situated just 15 minutes from Panama City, features 448 fully serviced residences nestled between the scenic Pacific Ocean and the lush tropical jungle of Playa Bonita. The project, developed in partnership with Empresas Bern, aims to offer a unique blend of residential living and hospitality-backed rental potential, catering to the growing demand for both short- and long-term accommodations in the region.

The decision to introduce this Westin-branded project comes amid increasing interest in Panama’s real estate market, particularly within coastal areas. According to the Panama Chamber of Real Estate (CAPI), the demand for luxury properties has surged, bolstered by the country's dollarized economy and stable political climate. The Residences by Westin are designed to appeal to a diverse demographic, including digital nomads, retirees, and corporate travelers, thus enhancing the area’s profile as a desirable living and investment destination.

With prices starting at $400,000 USD, the development offers an accessible entry point into luxury real estate under a globally recognized hospitality brand. Each residence promises high-standard amenities synonymous with Westin, including: - Rooftop and lagoon-style pools featuring ocean vistas - Sensory Spa by Clarins - Coworking and wellness lounges - 24/7 concierge service and secure fob entry - Private event and dining venues - Direct beach access via the Pearl Club

The Bouzy Group emphasizes the importance of on-site property management for owners, providing hands-off investment solutions and ensuring consistent oversight for rental opportunities. The strategic location within Palma Bonita, a burgeoning private coastal enclave, is further enhanced by new infrastructure developments and proximity to the Panama Canal, which is vital for international trade and tourism.

Reggie Bouzy, CEO of The Bouzy Group, stated, "Our partnership with Empresas Bern allows us to bring a new level of luxury living to Panama, merging the best of hospitality with residential comfort. We are excited to cater to the needs of investors looking for properties that promise long-term value stability."

The project is anticipated to contribute to the region's economic growth, with real estate investment expected to rise as more individuals recognize Panama's potential. According to a 2023 report by the World Bank, Panama's GDP growth is projected to remain steady, supported by foreign investment and infrastructure improvements.
