Bambuda Santa Catalina
10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely incredible stay! I would recommend this place to anyone - not to mention that Santa Catalina alone blew my mind! Beautiful beachfront, incredible food, and cute rooms :)"
Catalina's Hideaway
10/10 Excellent
"I loved it here!
The grounds and layout were so personalized and it felt very uniquely designed in the best way.
The staff, rooms, and vibe was calming but also fun, and being right on the beach to watch sunrise was a 5 star experience. Great food and drinks and lots of options for excursions too.
I will definitely be back!"
Villa Coco
10/10 Excellent
"The food was great! Beautiful pool and a very comfy room.
The walk to town was very doable, and I appreciated the central location. Would definitely stay again!"
Hotel Santa Catalina Panama
10/10 Excellent
"Great location, very cute hotel and great view on the famous surfing spot!"
Hotel y Restaurante Mama Ines
10/10 Excellent
"I was traveling with my teen daughter and we stayed here for two nights. The property is located a few stair steps down to the beach. Very quiet. Very homy relaxing atmosphere. Staff is very friendly. They have a restoran on the site and serve delicious freshly made food for a reasonable price. We rent two queen bed room with a big furnished terrace overlooking ocean and the pool. Room was clean, spacious with good wifi reception and big tv. Chanals and Netflix available. It is a family buisness definitely dedicated to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. The property is just 15 min. of safe walk at any time to more restorants and buisness. It is hard to find such a property for that price in this area. We would definitely come back here."
Punta Duarte Garden Inn
10/10 Excellent
"We stayed 3 nights. We loved the location, staff, and the whale watching nearby."
Kooteja Santa Catalina KAÏSA
8/10 Good
"The system to get in the cabin is pretty clever, and the place looked nice. Yet, I would have appreciated instructions on where to leave the money and also if the grass around the cabin was lower or cut. "
Hotel Hibiscus Garden / Jardin De Papos
6/10 Okay
"The online 1-star rating is not really justified. Although basic, this place is worth the $55 fee. The Hotels.com experience is to be avoided, they overcharged on the rate. The room was basic, the bed below average, but seeing the many species and number of sea birds in the early morning is a treat. The dirt driveway to the site is a biet of a pain."
Casa Morrillo
10/10 Excellent
"Amazing location. Great staff and owners."
