Perfect hotel for resting
Hôtel parfait pour se reposer

Overall, a very good hotel. It's perfect for relaxation. The staff is kind and attentive. Although swimming in the sea isn't possible, the stunning view from the room allows you to enjoy the ocean. The only downside is the faulty equipment in the gym.

Un hôtel très bien en général. Il est parfait pour le repos. Le personnel est gentil et attentionné. Bien qu’il n’est pas possible de se baigner dans la mer, la vue imprenable de la chambre en contrepartie fait profiter de l’océan. Le seul bémol c’est les appareils défectueux à la salle d’entraînement.

Great family stay at the Westin Playa Bonita
Super séjour en famille au Westin playa bonita

Great stay with my family. Beautiful hotel with good restaurants, just the service was rather slow. The pools are splendid, however, there's a lack of activities for children.

Super séjour avec ma famille.
Bel hôtel avec bons restaurants, juste le service assez lent.
Les piscines sont splendides par contre manque d’activités pour les enfants.

The hotel was really nice, I loved everything about it and the fact that it was close to Panama City was a must for us!

This hotel is at the center of nature and culture.
Cet hotel est au centre de la nature et la culture.

This hotel is perfect! It is located in a quiet area, with wildlife (birds, sloths and monkeys nearby), but only 20 minutes from Casco Viejo and Panama City.

Cet hotel est parfait! Il est situé dans un secteur tranquille, avec de la faune (oiseaux, paresseux et singes tout prêt), mais à 20 minutes à peine de Casco Viejo et Panama City.
