The stay was fantastic with a cozy bed and an amazing balcony view that made every morning special! Enjoyed the beachfront and the relaxing massages offered nearby. Just wish the hot water was a bit more consistent, but it didn’t ruin our awesome experience. 🌊

local art exhibit

Just a decent option for a transient visit in Portobelo with fantastic value. The local art exhibits in the main space were a nice touch and added to the ambiance. Bring bug spray for the mosquitoes in the evening.

what a letdown. ' i was honestly expecting an upgrade or at least a welcome gift to remedy my discomfort, but that was clearly too much to ask for here.

10/10

Waking up to that ocean view? Priceless! Super comfy bed and Emily at the front desk was a gem—helped us catch a cab back to Panama City no sweat. Can't get over the breakfast, especially the fresh seafood. Just wish we could've enjoyed more time on that balcony before heading out.

The view from our balcony was stunning, especially during sunrise. My kids loved exploring the beautiful surroundings, taking part in snorkeling adventures, and discovering local beaches. The artwork throughout the property added a lovely touch to our family experience.

In my wife’s opinion, better family-oriented activities would enhance the experience.

hot water issues

Had the best time with friends! We enjoyed snorkeling and hiking in the beautiful surroundings. The local art and relaxed vibe made our stay feel special. The breakfast was delicious, and the staff was helpful in organizing our activities. Can't wait to come back for more fun in the sun!

However, we did face some hot water issues during our stay, which was a bit inconvenient, but we managed.
