Eastern Panama, Panama hotel rooms at the Independent

"The resort was outstanding. It exceeded expectations in every way. The service was the best we had in Panama. The cocktails were fun and the food was delicious and they have a vegan menu. We stayed in a king room and it was very private, pristine and well appointed."

"Amazing location, beautiful vistas of mountains, forest and ocean. Very relaxing environment with infinity pool. Well maintained grounds. Wonderful breakfast and dinners. Jose and Anna were amazing hosts. Marijka and Garth"

"Great location for bird watching! The hosts were friendly and helpful. It is best to contact them directly using WhatsApp in addition to booking on Expedia."

"This hotel is very run down, and should not be $150/night. Did not have access to running water in our room. Location and beach are its saving graces."

"The views from this mountain-top boutique hotel are extraordinary."
