“Good value for money Beah accommodatio”
Very efficient check in , good communication.Good value accommodation with a good freshly made breakfast. Location steps from the beach and a small mini market 5 mins walk away stocking essentials plus meat. Patricia is a very nice helpful lady, mother of the owners of Kilian Restaurant ,which is a must if staying here.Just 5 mins walk away.

“A quiet place.”
I was the only guest, so it was quiet. I spent a lot of time in one of the hammocks reading and dozing. The beach is nice and close for a walk and a swim. There’s a lot of sand wall protection going on to protect against beach erosion. My room was ok but I did have a separate bathroom which wasn’t such a nuisance being the only guest. My hosts were genuinely hospitable ensuring I had everything and gave good advice about local dining and onward travel. Breakfast was good in that I received fried eggs one day and scrambled the next.

“Perfect location for a family beach weekend”
The beach house was ideal for what we needed. We took up 2 of the 4 rooms and used the common area quite a bit. The rooms are simple and comfortable with AC. There are facilities to store food and cook but we only used the fridge. The beach is 30 seconds away and the Lilian restaurant is about 6 minute walk! Perfect! The breakfast was basic but tasty - eggs with toast and coffee. The Fonda across the road is great for lunch too. Patricia was a fabulous host, helpful, attentive and friendly. Would 100% recommend!

“hostel-type basic room with friendly hosts & great location steps from Farallon beach.”
Killian beach house is a hostel type accommodation a minutes walk away from Farallon beach, a handful of restaurants & convenience stores. The location & people are the best features at Kilian. It’s run by a lovely family that are happy to help and also run a delicious contemporary restaurant with the same name 7 min walk inland. In contrast to the contemporary upmarket decor at the restaurant, the seemingly clean but rough-around-the-edges rooms are super basic with AC, clean sheets, towels, working Wi-Fi, basic hand soap, as long as you do not mind the occasional cockroach and having to walk across the communal living area to reach your ‘private’ cold-shower bathroom (our bathroom was not en-suite to the room). The building has seen better days and could do with a refurb, but must have once been an impressive large home. Our sheets were refreshed, bathroom & common areas cleaned once in the 6 nights we stayed. We swept the floors ourselves daily as to not get beach sand everywhere. In the shared areas, the fridge to keep our cold water & beer, & the basic old but working washing machine were convenient. We preferred the house during the week when we were practically the only guests as it felt more private & quiet. By the weekend more guests arrived, partying late through the night in their rooms and the common areas. There was a power cut in the entire neighbourhood (seemingly common throughout the outskirts of Panama City) on Saturday morning, which lasted a few hours, but luckily didn't affect our stay too much.

It wasn't exactly what I expected. But it was a good stay and I would recommend it. It's only a stone throw away from the beach. The host Patricia is very friendly and helpful. There is no breakfast on site but a large shared kitchen. The Kilian restaurant is a short walk away up the road and it is excellent. Awesome coffee! There is a bar across the lane and a fonda next to it plus two merkados within walking distance. The bar provides good music all afternoon and into the night. I liked it but if you are looking for quiet you may not. The rooms are very basic and the beds could be better but everything is really clean. Free parking for the guests. The locals are very friendly and engaging. The DJ at the bar will play your requests. If you meet Angel (speaks english) on the beach he will offer you catered fishing trips and rides to the island in his panamanian style fishing boat.
