"This was an extremely frustrating and unacceptable experience. We called the phone number listed on Expedia countless times, and every single time the number was disconnected. There was absolutely no way to reach the owner of the apartment. Expedia also tried to contact the owner using the same information and was unsuccessful. Neither they nor we were able to get any response at all. Because we had no way of knowing where we were supposed to go or how to access the property, we made the...

Top La Ensenada Beach Hotel Reviews

Gran Evenia Bijao - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"Las instalaciones necesitan un poco de atención, el personal es atento y amable, la comida es buena, nos sorprendió gratamente, todo con muy buena presentación y mucha variedad. Fuimos en una fecha festiva y el hotel estaba muy lleno, había que esperar para comer, para pedir bebidas, eso fue un poco incómodo, pero fuera de eso le doy una buena calificación, en general fue una experiencia agradable y sin duda volveríamos, tal vez no en festivo."

Grand Decameron Panama, A Trademark Resort

8/10 Good

"Pros: The staff was outstanding,helpful, and friendly. The location of the resort is close to the ocean and there are sufficient umbrellas and lounges for everyone. There are 4 freshwater pools to relax and again there are enough lounges and umbrellas for everyone. There are acrivities for children and adults alike. The rooms are spacious, have a balcony and face the ocean. Cons: This resort is a part of the Wyndham Resort family. I am not sure what that means since the quality of the rooms reminds one more of Motel 6. The resort is not handicap friendly. There are no elevators for persons with mobility issues to get to where they need to be. The bathrooms are cheaply constructed, when you flushed the toilet it sounded like jet engine taking off. The shower was only cold the first night. The second night it was either scalding hot or cold. There was no inbetween. For some reasons the swimming pools were closed at 6:30pm. There was also no waitstaff at the pools, where one could order drinks. So if you wanted to get a drink, you had to walk to the nearest bar. Food was only served at specific times. During the time I was there, it was either Hamburgers, Hotdogs, Rice, Chicken or some Meat, Salads and some fruit. There was not too much variety, and because the times were limited, it was always crowded and chaotic. One thing I did not appreciate was the constant pressure by sales people to sell you a time share membership. These people prowled the resort everywhere."

Casa Swell Coronado

10/10 Excellent

"I just cant say enough good things about Casa Swell. Our room were clean and comfy and had everything we needed in it. The grounds were well kept and tropical and fun. The location was perfect, close to restaurants and shopping. The outdoor recreation area was cool too. I liked the outdoor kitchen and seating. We didn't use the pool but sitting by it and eating breakfast that the host prepared for us was wonderful and delicious. We will definitely book here again! It was unique and very comfortable. We didn't want to leave:)"

San Carlos Surf Resort & Eco Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"What a wonderful place to find out what life on the Pacific coast of Panama is like and what it can be for you. Brooke and her staff are everything you would want in them. Friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating and supportive. Breakfast is included and is the only meal served daily. Definitely try El Parque restaurant in San Carlos. Delicious and inexpensive. Being a small lodge on the ocean makes it special. FYI: No TV, no fridge, no microwave in my room but an awesome ocean view, a comfortable bed and a large walk-in shower. Totally recommend this resort unless you are seeking the amenities of a corporate resort."
