Titled Corner Lot in Torio Plaza – Torio Hills

This flat, titled lot is located in Torio Plaza, the future commercial hub of the Torio Hills development. Positioned on a corner in the center of the planned plaza area, it offers good visibility and potential for foot traffic as the community grows.

The property has access to electricity and water, and while no businesses have been built yet, the groundwork for a small town center is in place, with a café, yoga studio, and artisan space already operating nearby.

Though intended for commercial use, the lot can also be used for residential purposes, offering flexibility for those looking to build a home or live-work space in the area.

This is an opportunity to get in early in what is expected to become the social and service hub of Torio Hills – a place where residents, visitors, and small businesses will naturally gather over time.

About Torio Hills

Torio Hills is not just a real estate development – it's a visionary, community-first project rising from the lush hills and Pacific shores of Panama’s remote and beautiful “Sunset Coast.” Just minutes from the beach town of Torio in Veraguas Province, this master-planned, 600-hectare property is shaping up to be one of Panama’s most intentional and inspiring coastal communities.

What sets Torio Hills apart isn’t just the land or the views – it’s the philosophy behind the project. The developer, a long-time resident of Panama, isn’t driven by fast profits or speculation. His vision is grounded in creating a sustainable, vibrant, and self-reliant community where people can live in harmony with nature – with real infrastructure, long-term thinking, and a collaborative spirit guiding every decision.

A Community Designed for Living

Torio Hills is home to several distinct neighborhoods – from ocean-view estate lots to walkable village parcels – as well as a budding town center. These include:

• Sea View Hills: Elevated ridge lots offering sweeping views of the Pacific and year-round sunsets.

• Green Valley: Jungle-adjacent properties nestled near rivers and waterfalls, shaped to fit the natural terrain.

• Torio Village: Affordable lots designed for modest beach homes, perfect for families, retirees, and dreamers.

• Torio Plaza: The commercial and cultural hub – home to a café, restaurant, yoga studio, artisan lab, and more.

Each lot is fully titled and connected to essential services: electricity, high-speed fiber internet, and reliable water sourced from reserve tanks and private wells. Lot owners can build custom homes or purchase move-in-ready casitas already constructed within the project.

But what truly makes Torio Hills feel different is how it’s growing – not from the top down, but hand-in-hand with its residents. The developer actively partners with community members to co-create the features that matter. A recent example is the new skate park, initiated by residents and supported by the developer who donated land near Torio Plaza for its construction. A small daycare and school is also in place, and an NGO facility has been built and awaits active programming. These additions aren’t just amenities – they’re reflections of the developer’s belief that strong communities are built through participation, not imposition.

World-Class Infrastructure, Privately Funded

Despite its remote setting, the infrastructure at Torio Hills rivals anything you’d find in more developed areas. And that’s no accident.

The developer has personally invested in every aspect of the infrastructure – from roads to culverts – without relying on government assistance. What’s more impressive is that all the machinery, equipment, and materials used to build this community are owned and operated on-site.

• Roads throughout the project are expertly graded and maintained using the developer’s own fleet of heavy equipment.

• High-quality fill dirt, essential for long-term stability in the tropics, is sourced from within the property and carefully compacted.

• There is an on-site concrete block factory and a dedicated culvert manufacturing operation, ensuring reliable drainage and durability across the project.

This level of vertical integration – from land preparation to road building to construction materials – gives Torio Hills a rare advantage: total quality control and the ability to respond quickly to resident needs without outside delays or cost inflation. It’s also a reflection of the developer’s serious, long-term commitment to this land and its people. The results are visible: the roads are in excellent condition, the infrastructure is robust, and the project is expanding steadily and responsibly.

Lifestyle and Community

Life in Torio Hills is relaxed, connected to nature, and deeply community-driven. You’ll meet an eclectic mix of residents: North Americans, Europeans, Panamanians, surfers, retirees, creatives, and digital nomads – all drawn by the lifestyle and values this place represents.

The development avoids the artificial feel of cookie-cutter subdivisions or exclusive clubs. Instead, neighbors gather organically for yoga at the plaza, weekend beach bonfires, waterfall hikes, and casual farmers’ markets. Whether you're growing your own food, trading mangoes with a neighbor, or sharing tools for a new building project, the vibe is grassroots and cooperative.

There’s no formal HOA, but a strong sense of shared responsibility keeps the place thriving. With fiber-optic internet, many residents work remotely or run small businesses, blending productivity with a peaceful, off-the-grid lifestyle that doesn’t sacrifice comfort.

Nature, Wellness, and Adventure

Nature is more than a backdrop – it’s the main attraction. Torio Hills is designed around natural topography, preserving jungle buffers, wildlife corridors, and green space. Hiking trails wind through the neighborhoods and connect to waterfalls, rivers, and a soon-to-be-official 100-hectare private nature reserve – the first of its kind in Veraguas. Wildlife sightings are common: monkeys, toucans, scarlet macaws, and more.

The Pacific Ocean is just a few minutes away. Torio Beach is ideal for swimming and beginner surfers, while nearby Playa Morrillo is a world-class surf break. Deep-sea fishing, horseback riding, and trips to Coiba National Park are part of the rhythm of life. Residents prioritize wellness and sustainability – with permaculture gardens, composting, solar power, and low-impact design common across the community.

Real Estate Opportunity

Torio Hills offers a variety of property options:

• Small lots in Torio Village priced accessibly for first-time buyers.

• Mid-size Green Valley lots with lush surroundings and natural privacy.

• Premium Sea View lots ranging from 1,500–9,000 m² with jaw-dropping views.

• Turnkey casitas with utilities, ready to live in or rent.

All properties are titled (rare on Panama’s coast), with no HOA fees, and developer financing is available. Prices remain well below those in comparable beach towns, offering strong value for lifestyle buyers and long-term investors alike. And with construction capability already in place, buyers can break ground quickly – or work with the in-house team to custom build.

A Vision Rooted in Purpose

Ultimately, Torio Hills is not just a place to buy land – it’s a place to live well. It represents a philosophy: that real communities are built over time, with care, creativity, and cooperation. That infrastructure matters. That nature should be protected. And that when the people who build a place also live in it, something rare and lasting can be created.

For those seeking a healthier, simpler, and more intentional life in Panama – whether full-time or seasonal – Torio Hills is a development unlike any other. A true example of what's possible when vision, resources, and heart come together.
