Top El Platanal Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Playa Blanca - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Exelente ubicación y bien servicio su comida muy buena"

The Buenaventura Golf & Beach Resort Panama, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful place"

Nomada Republic Hotel El Valle

10/10 Excellent

"Una vista relajante, el lugar muy bonito."

Casa Caracol Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"We were terribly disappointed with communications with the property. The internet site says that a door code is sent 24 hours before checkin but on the morning of our arrival we still had not received a code. We tried for 3 hours whatsapp and calling direct but no repsonse. As we were looking at a 2.5 hour bus trip from Panama city to the hotel we were anxious to make contact and get a code. As we had booked thru Expedia we turned to them and they also were unable to contact the hotel from 8:00 till 11:00. So by 11:00 we were completly frustrated and as we were writing a letter to cancel and them book elsewhere the hotel finally responded. Very frustating for 70 year old travellers to be unable to commuicate with a hotel during normal business hours."

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."

Mi Casa Asi de Grande

8/10 Good

"Bueno en general"

Hotel Eclipse

Villa Botero By Casa Mojito B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Christophe and his family were amazing hosts. The breakfast was incredible and fit for a king. The grounds, room and pool were decorated beautifully and very well maintained. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. We highly recommend this place."
