It was an amazing place: located in beautiful nature right on the beach; the pool was clean and had perfect temperature. The newly built bar is also very nice and the drinks and food were very special - the music was fantastic! But what we liked the most: the staff was very friendly and cool - thanks to all of you. Finally: cheers to Freddy ♥️

I stayed in one of the standard rooms — it was small but cozy and very clean. Being right on Playa Estero was a highlight, and I loved rinsing off in the beach shower and heading straight to the pool. Great location for a beach getaway.

Fantastic stay, Joel and Olga are gems. The warm welcome by Joel made the check in very nice. Helped us with some excursions. Knowledgeable and caring. When we had a very early excursion they made sure we got breakfast to go. Very thoughtful as I traveled with 2 boys that always want te eat. When we decided to stay longer in town after our excursion we got a what’sapp to see if we were alright. We had a fabulous diving experience with Camilo from panama Dive center. Towels and warm drinks were waiting for us on our return. Very caring. On the snorkel excursion with Ricardo, we saw Dolphins and whales. They did so their best to make it a memorable experience and it absolutely was fantastic. Our accommodations were wonderful, beautiful appartment with everything you need and more. Clean. The restaurant was very nice and the cocktails were an other highlight. Can’t say anything negative about our stay, only that i should have stayed more days.

    Location was amazing being right on the beach. Main area had lots of sitting areas to relax and find shade. Atmosphere and decor was relaxing and inviting. Great having a pool when you didn’t feel like going in the ocean. Beach was beautiful and long enough for a good walk.

    The location is to die for. Right on the beach, you can hear the waves crashing and the breeze blowing as you're falling asleep. It was kind of funny because you have to cross a little "river" or inlet on foot to get there, and depending on the tide it can be a bit of water to wade through (roller bags not recommended!) but it just added to the sense of adventure and seclusion. It was very easy to book a day trip to Coiba Island via reception, as well as sign up for surf lessons.
