“A once in a life time visit.”
We were welcomed at the dock, coffee always available. Nice restaurant on site. Rent a golf cart for your stay! We think this made our holiday perfectly! The island is walkable with lots of places to explore.

“The staff is really what makes the place!”
Each and everyone of the staff members worked so hard and were so very friendly, making our stay seem like a 5star accommodation. Thank you, thank you! You are the hardest working staff we encountered and so happy! The breakfasts are included and made to order. We were so comfortable and enjoyed the food & staff so much we ate dinner there every night. Delicious and easily accommodated my gluten-free diet. There are so many other places on the island that have shuttered, but not Gerald's. The building is so well built we did not hear our fellow vacationers staying above us. Beds were comfortable and everything is so clean. The proximity to the airport was actually enjoyable. We could only hear the planes for a short moment and they were fun to watch. Playa Larga is a short easy walk away that's both beautiful & clean with a restaurant to buy refreshments. We would definitely stay there again.

“I never return to places I have visited. Unless I really love them. This is my second visit...”
It is where I feel most at home. The staff, the other visitors - it seems to attract people I appreciate. And it is right close to My Private Beach (yes, if we can change the gulf of Mexico to you knowwhat, please can i change Playa de Las Suecas to Playa de Giselle?!)

“Worst place ever! Avoid this place”
Nothing! Is the worsts place we have been on, the treatment we received from Gerald and his wife from Germany is the worst they are completely rude, unpolite and they do not deserve to be in panama the island is such a beautiful person place, they shouldn’t be allowed to run a hotel, im a world traveler and this trip was a nightmare thanks to Gerald, avoid this hotel a all cost!

“3day break to a beautiful island ,we were not disappointed!!!”
Gerald’s Hotel was excellent!! Everything we needed for a short break away ,the breakfast was continental style ,fresh fruit followed by eggs (done as you wanted)toast ,butter and jam ,we loved the homemade bread , also juice coffee and tea , enough to set you up for the day . The room was very nice if simple ,but you needed no more .The staff were very friendly and on hand if you needed anything . We hired a golf cart for 1 day ,Gerald arranged this for us . We wished we had stayed longer ,and will definitely return .

I liked the staff. They were all very attentive and friendly. The hotel is located 5 mins walking to the Playa Larga. The onwers picked me up from the new ferry station. The breakfast is good. The have like coffee, fruits and eggs. They also have a menu for lunch and dinner. They have an air conditioner in the room and also water. They left an umbrella for the sun in every room.
