Recommended place to stay in Playa Palmar

Relaxed,good location for the beach but still retaining a sense of adventure (crossing the river into town). Room good size with well equipped kitchen. Bathroom very functional. Breakfast was excellent and plentiful. Hosts very kind and considerate.

GREAT PLEASANT SURPRISE!! Parking place, also.. :)

The yard is beautifully organized and welcoming with trees, flowers and little lights.. The common space for breakfast and leisure is very enticing and you can even buy sdome drinks if you forgot to do your groceries. The house is close to the beach. The rooms are beautifully decorated and comfortable with everything one could possibly need. The couple that manage the business are kind, friendly and open, the lady of the house has a keen eye for detail and one can see they both put their hearts in this business. A beautiful and welcoming accommodation close to a beach. One hour drive from Panama city, great for a one night stop or a longer chill time. Great value for money. I'll be back when I visit Panama again.. :) Thank you! :)

Great location just about 100m from the beach, in a nice garden setting, quiet.Very nice and helpful hosts.We had great breakfast included in the price.There are no shops in El Palmar,but San Carlos has everything and it isn't far, so we could easily walk there.

Amazing people!

Much love for the owners. They help you where they can. Very friendly people! We arrived late at night and hadn’t had dinner. We heard a knock at the door and there was the owner with bananas and granola cookies. Very relaxed accomodation just a few feet from the beach. I definately recommend this cosy place.

Eduardo is a fantastic host. He was really friendly and helpful. He dropped us to the bus stop and gave us good tips. Breakfast was delicious. There are two beaches very nearby and some good places to eat in walking distance. The room was comfortable with good air conditioning and a fan.
