Plongée très sympa

Reviewed By fazgaz76

École de plongée qui fait aussi snorkling. Nous y avons été pour le snonkling, le guide pour cette sortie était très gentil et nous a montré 2 endroits pour plongée. Le premier l’eau était pas assez clair pour bien distinguer les poissons mais le deuxième était juste magnifique. Au retour nous avons pu voir les fortifications de Portobello.

A really nice hotel

Reviewed By Kevin S

A really nice hotel. Our room was a good size, spotlessly clean, a/c, good WiFi, fridge, tea and coffee and a hot shower. Plus a balcony overlooking the river flowing into the Caribbean. Breakfast was a good choice, ours being eggs, toast, tea or coffee, juice and a large plate of fruit. Safe car parking was only 150 metres away and assistance with our luggage was provided. Portobello was a pleasant town for a stop over. Decent old Spanish forts, a very pleasant old church, small supermarket and meals available at the hotel.

Basic but great!

Reviewed By Carlos M

It is basically in the middle of the jungle but close to the main road. The room is very comfortable, the employees very useful and wiling to help. Very clean, no restaurant, hot water, no a/c, tv or wifi. Perfect if you want to get in contact with the nature with facilities.

Scubapanama

The place in little habitation was good, nice view!

Reviewed By d13travel

The accommodation was respectable good value for money and access to a hammock plus new chairs. What I want to highlight the most is the restaurant which has changed owners and is now excellent. We ate 3 times at this restaurant and the Creolian style WOW !!! JEAN CARLOS BLANCO JIMENEZ is one of the owners of the restaurant, he is really exceptional, he gave us good advice on food and maintained us during our stay. The 3 dishes were just tasty, the cuisine was delicious: the cooking and the typical little sauces like the three members of the restaurant who are all from Colon. My rating for the scubapanama restaurant is perfect, go and enjoy this succulent Creolian food ...

Not A Resort

Reviewed By triplovernj

First this is not a resort - It is a set of 3 condos located on the beach south of Portobello - it is in Maria Chiquita. The restaurant is closed and most of the condos are vacated. Building 2 looks like it is falling apart. I was in building 1 and it was ok. The place is kept clean and well manicured but it is not a resort. There is nothing to do and while there the Portuguese man-o-wars littered the water and the beach so my plan to relax on the beach for 2 days did not come to fruition. What I don't understand is why the builders didn't pave the road through the town It would have been the decent thing to do. I would have rated it a 2.5 if I could because I wanted peace and tranquility so I didn't mind the desolation. Views were great Security was very much appreciated

Hidden B&B with 5 star hosts

Reviewed By Pim P

Rancho Juancho is a small “resort” on a farm run by a couple. They are the best hosts we have met in Panama. Super friendly and always helpfull. There are +- 5 cabins and they are basic but ok. We did an amazing horseback tour trough some farms and the jungle. Highly recomended.

Great Value Hostel

Reviewed By V1905VTpaulm

Booked this hostel for one night as I was sailing to Cartagena via San Blas Islands. It was the cheapest hostel I could find for one night and was very happy with my choice. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The bed was comfortable and it was clean. It has air conditioning in the rooms. It has changed owners and is no longer owned by Captain Jack. There is a bar and restaurant but didn't get opportunity to use. I would recommend staying here.
