Casa Swell Coronado

10/10 Excellent

"I just cant say enough good things about Casa Swell. Our room were clean and comfy and had everything we needed in it. The grounds were well kept and tropical and fun. The location was perfect, close to restaurants and shopping. The outdoor recreation area was cool too. I liked the outdoor kitchen and seating. We didn't use the pool but sitting by it and eating breakfast that the host prepared for us was wonderful and delicious. We will definitely book here again! It was unique and very comfortable. We didn't want to leave:)"

"Decent good"

Hotel La Compania Del Valle

10/10 Excellent

"An Extraordinary Escape — Even More Magical Than We Imagined! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ After staying at Hotel La Compañía in Casco Viejo, I genuinely didn't believe the experience could possibly get any better. Well, I was wrong. La Compañía del Valle took everything to an entirely new level! We arrived in El Valle de Antón after experiencing the frightening earthquake in Panama City. Unaccustomed to earthquakes, we were understandably shaken and desperately needed somewhere to unwind, feel comfortable, and regain our peace of mind. What we discovered was nothing short of extraordinary. There is something almost indescribable about this property. The beauty, the tranquility, the atmosphere, the energy… everything comes together to create a truly magical experience. It is a sanctuary of relaxation, elegance, and absolute pampering. The staff were exceptional, making us feel genuinely cared for from the moment we arrived. Somehow, they transformed what had been a frightening experience into one of our most beautiful and memorable escapes. Words and photographs simply cannot capture the essence of this place. You have to experience it to understand it. We left feeling so relaxed, reassured, and rejuvenated that we wanted it to continue so we had to return to La compañía in Casco Viejo! La Compañía has mastered something truly special: not just luxury hospitality, but the art of making people feel wonderful. Absolutely unforgettable! ❤️"

Casa Caracol Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everthing were amazing. I will comeback every time I could. Just one thing to say. I know the bookings in USA and Europe are in a different way. But here in Panama we use WhatsApp a lot so just improve that. But the site is wonderful. A 💎."

Gorgona Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay close to the beach. very nice big pool. Management is super friendly."

Casa Madre Tierra

10/10 Excellent

"the property is gorgeous and the rooms are comfortable and nice. Don't expect a tv in your room, or a refrigerator. It is more like a very nice bed and breakfast. the restaurant was very nice and moderately priced and breakfast, which is included, was also very good. It is about a 10 minute drive to the little main area of the Valle but not bad. The pool was nice enough, but small. The staff is very friendly and helpful."
