Dreams Playa Bonita Panama - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"I would definitely stay there again!"

Central Hotel Panama Casco Viejo

8/10 Good

"The hotel's location is excellent, right in the heart of the lively Casco Viejo district. Museums, restaurants, shops, and the waterfront are all within easy walking distance. There was always something happening in the square across from the hotel entrance, from live music to graduation celebrations and photography sessions, making the area feel vibrant and full of energy. The breakfast staff were outstanding—friendly, attentive, and very accommodating. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of options, including fresh fruit, juices, and a made-to-order omelet station, making it a great way to start the day. The biggest drawback, and the reason I would hesitate to stay here again, was the noise. The rooms offer very little sound insulation. We could clearly hear full conversations from the room next door, and children were running through the hallways well past midnight. The rooms also overlook an atrium where music played late into the evening. Unfortunately, what surprised us most was being awakened at 2:00 a.m. by hotel staff vacuuming. The vacuum ran for about 30 minutes, and it was loud enough that I checked the clock because I couldn't believe housekeeping was vacuuming in the middle of the night. If you're looking for a hotel in the center of all the action, the location and service are excellent. However, if you're a light sleeper or value a quiet night's rest, you may want to consider choosing a different property."

2 BRM Ocean Front Apart Panama Canal & Panama City

8/10 Good

"The actual condo was good with great view and was clean, but the outside of the building and amenities need a lot of work. The outside almost looks like an abandoned building. The location is fantastic and an easy walk to Isla Perico. This building could be fantastic if a new owner took over and brought it up to par. Esteban was great and really did his best to make us happy. Very nice condo and would consider it again especially if the outside is fixed."

PANAMA CANAL & PANAMA CITY - FULL OCEANFRONT APARTMENT

8/10 Good

"L’appartement tout était parfait, c’est plutôt les autres parties collées à l’appart qui manquaient beaucoup d’amour. Les photos ne représente que l’appartement mais tout ce qu’il y a autour est vraiment désolant. Oui ça devait être très bien avant mais bcp de choses sont laissés à l’abandon. Heureusement on était super bien, on avait tout ce qu’il fallait, la vue était superbe, grand balcon. Un gros merci à Esteben pour son service il a été génial, et il s’est tre# bien occupé de nous. Le séjour a quand même été très bien."
