This was a beautiful experience. It was wonderful to hear the birds in the morning. Early morning tours to go bird watching, Monkey Island nearby which was wonderful. On Cable Car to top of mountain at $50.00 we didn't see much so felt it wasn't worth it. Breakfast was delicious as was both restaurants we ate in at night. Staff was wonderful and helpful. I would have loved to spend more time here and would definitely go back.

This is an excellent Hotel. You have an amazing view. Rooms are very nice and throughly cleaned each day. The service is very good. The people are very nice and helpful. The location is very covenient. It's in the rainforest, away from the loud city noises. The air is so refreshing.
I recommend going to the Monkey Island. This is a tour the resort offers for a fee, but it is well worth it. You get to ride in a boat on the Panama Canal to go to the island. Although you can't get off the boat, the monkeys will come to you. Very fun, relaxing place to stay at. I would highly recommend staying at this resort rather than a hotel by the city. The only downside is that you have to cross an old bridge to get there,that's only one way.
