Anyone near Playa Venao?

6 years ago
My wife and I are at the very start of considering retiring to Panama. We have no interest in being any place near Panama City because we don't like crowds or the big city.

We have been reading, and the Los Santos province seems like an area we might like.

This is our first visit so we are a little scared. Not of the people or anything, just the unknown in general. We have booked a vacation in February of 2018 with the plan to look around a little, get a taste of the area, take a big brave step into the unknown.

When it comes time to retire, we would love to buy some property on the beach but that is not happening for a few years still. We just want to look around.

It would be amazing to get to know someone in the area and maybe connect while on vacation to get an insider's point of view and maybe be shown around a little.

With that in mind, is anyone that speaks English living reasonably close to Playa Venao that might be interested in at least emailing, messaging before our trip or possibly even showing us around once we get down there?

This is both exciting and a bit scary. I hope someone can help us get comfortable.
