What our clients are saying.....

"As non-Spanish speakers and like most newcomers we found Panama a bit bewildering at first.... This is where Amanda became invaluable to us. Because of her contacts with a number of furniture, appliance and kitchen suppliers we were able to completely furnish and equip our new condo with the minimum of stress and at reasonable cost. Her introduction to our kitchen suppliers was especially helpful as she was able to communicate our ideas in Spanish." G. Ryder (UK)

"I was referred to Amanda Heapes and Inma Diaz. I found them to be immediately responsive, reliable communicators and very good at what they do. I instantly felt That I would finally be taken care of the way I would expect to be when I am dealing with someone outside the country in which I reside (US). They were very concerned about decorating my condominium exactly the way I wanted it to be and not the way they wanted it to be. I also had no reservations sending money to them and knowing I wouldn't be taken advantage of." D Nitke (US)

"Younique Casa has become a highly respected and successful business in the short time it has been Panama. Not only have I found Amanda and Inma to have a great design and artistic sense but a unique willingness to allow their clients to have the finished product exactly the way the client wants it. They truly listen to the client, offer design suggestions when necessary but the client is truly the designer. Younique Casa works quickly, and with their expert connections and shopping skills are able to produce a finished product in record time and on budget. I recommend Younique Casa to all my clients , knowing they will be well pleased with the price and the results." Pamela King, owner, LA CRESTA de ORO Apartment Rentals.
