“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……
“The pool and view are awesome. Sadly, this hotel clearly has slid into disrepair. There were at least 30 mosaic tiles loose on the shower floor--one cut my foot. The walls looked like a 12 year old did the painting--so much paint on the beautiful tiles, ceiling, door trim. Doing a nice job on the paint would have cost almost nothing, so sad! Hundreds of tiny ants crawling around the porch slider. Electricity out both nights. Second night from midnight to after 10 am--so no ac, running……
“A nice and cozy place! The owner is extremely friendly and made the stay feel like home. He also offered us to use the bikes and we had some interesting conversations on football, music, and ancestry. He also has a really friendly dog named Music that wants to be petted all the time! The place has a lot soul, it’s very green, has lots of interesting books and is at a nice location to start hikes.
We were staying in the time of ripening of mangoes which were falling of trees at all times (onto……
“There was no AC in the room. There was a unit but it was not running. I explained this to the staff and they did nothing. The same with the guests next door blaring jazz music all night long. The staff did not even come to the room to address the issue. I was to have had a six night stay but checked out the very next morning. I will not be returning.”
“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.”
“Nos encantó este hotel de verdad que volvería, desde la atención hasta las habitaciones estuvieron espectaculares, me sentí como en casa de verdad que lo recomiendo bastante y es un lugar hermoso para desconectar ✨”
“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 💎.”
“It’s a fairly cheap place; it’s right on the beach; and it’s just a few minutes off the pan-American highway. If you are traveling through and need a cheap convenient place to rest your head, this is it. The staff is kind and genuinely want to help you. Breakfast (patacones, fried Panamanian tortilla, eggs, sliced cheese) was included in my room rate - it was surprisingly decent.
That said, you get what you pay for so don’t expect anything fancy. The property is old and quite dated. The……
