Experience

We arrived at 2:15 pm, we know check in is 3:00pm, we tried to know if we can check in in advance, but staff said check in at 3:00, that’s totally fine, but no one told us we have to draw a number to check in. All check in process is terrible. When we get into the room, there is no towels, staff said no enough towels, and we only get two at last, but we have 4 people. The bed is horrible, because it's quilt cover not quilt, we sleep very uncomfortable. We even take towels to cover our body. We eat Panama Canal restaurant, the plate wasn’t clean at all. The food, the entertainment are good.

Fui con mi esposo y 4 hijos, nos hospedamos en el town center. Muy amables al entrar y al check in. Las llaves de la habitación no funcionaron correctamente ninguno de los 4 días. La limpieza de la habitación podría ser mejor. Las piscinas bares y playas muy bonitas y limpias. Las opciones del buffet deberían ser más amplias. Las actividades de recreación fueron muy divertidas. Es un buen lugar y es acorde al dinero que pagas.

This is a large resort about 120 Km from Panama City on Pacific coast . The nature is beautiful in the resort which has not been renovated for at least ten years . The resort has several sections including privately owned condos and villas. The food quality is 3 star at best with reasonable choices . The most attractive feature of this resort is a gigantic man made lagoon with concrete floor . However, I was lucky to be under radar and was able to use the best and cleanest part of this Lagoon during my 3 days stay . I learned at the end that part is reserved for the units owners only ! The price is reasonable and staff are friendly and only a few speak some English. It is a beautiful and comfortable place with a variety of sport facilities.

Room are very old, no control of the AC - room were very cold even with 2 blankets I was still cold. water from the shower was too weak and I couldn’t wash my body so don’t ask for my hair. No glass in the room, food was not really good. Meat too cook, no house wine at the Italian restaurant so you have to pay for wine if you want any. Music is so loud, no way you can have a spot to just relax. Even at night, the music is so loud, it was difficult to go to bed early. I wanted to leave before the end of my stay, they did not want to cancel my last night and reimburse me but I left anyway. I will never go back there and I will never recommend this place to my worse ennemies.
