Eden Potrerillos Arriba
In between the beautiful town of Boquete and David, the second largest city of Panama, lies the picturesque village of Potrerillos Ariba. This little gem at the foot of Volcan Baru gives you the best ever changing views in the Province of Chiriqui. The Eden community borders the natural park Olimpo and guarantees an abundance of beautiful wildlife such as monkeys, exotic birds, gato solo and many more. Living in Eden is like going back in time, a complete change in lifestyle. Located on a dead-end street and close to, yet far enough away from the village, it gives you peace and quiet except for the sounds of an occasional hauler monkey or a bird of prey in its majestic flight. All houses have a fenced area and plenty of space for a nutritious vegetable garden or even horses or an extra guest house. All three houses are solar powered like most of the houses on Eden.
