After a hiatus of two years due to the pandemic, we were pleased to see many of the former staff, the upgraded rooms, and especially, a more imaginative menu.

Best laid back beach hotel ever!
The Hotel is right on the beach! Exit room, walk across the lush grass barefoot, you are on the sand. Miles and miles of wide, flat smooth beach in both directions. I enjoyed a four+ mile run at sunrise, and no end of the beach in sight! The biggest beach I have ever been on. My wife loved beach combing and found several nice shells. The room had a mini-split air conditioner that took a few hours to cool the room, but eventually it did catch up to it's task and we slept well. The restaurant is great. Very tasty food, cold beer, excellent service and wonderful outdoor setting. There is a pool that looked nice, that we did not use because the ocean is what drew us away from the Colorado winter. (The ocean was very warm waves where a blast on the boogie board they rented us for $6.) We wished we had discovered this gem of a hotel earlier in our three week trip so we could stay longer. When we return to Panama at a date yet to be determined, we will be back!

Good Value for the Money
We enjoyed our stay! The staff was pleasant and the entire hotel and grounds were spotless. The on-site restaurant and bar was very good as well. The only negatives I would have is that the sheets pillows and towels could use an upgrade.

The property is beautiful & well kept. We arrived at around 2pm & our room was not ready so we were asked to wait in one of the beachside bungalows. The room was spacious & the beds & pillows were comfortable. A light scent of natural gas lingered in the air after taking a hot shower. Though the garden was lush and groomed, we were mortified at the fact that the garden sprinklers were on from 7am to 7pm, non-stop. What felt like lack of water conservation practices left us with a poor impression of the hotel’s respect for this precious resource. Our experience with the restaurant & kitchen staff was not positive: each time we dined we had to repeatedly ask for water to be brought to our table. From behind the bar the staff gestured the international "what can I do for you" head shuffle, without approaching our table. They behaved with greater interest in maintaining their ongoing conversations than in the business of serving us. Our food was served either too hot or very cold. For our first dinner, we didn’t realize that we clashed with the staff break time until we noticed our server dining on the table next to ours, having a loud phone conversation about her issues dealing with her pigs & farm animals. We're sad to say that the staff was not warm to us. They seemed to be gossiping & mocking us, & that was disheartening. We are happy go lucky seasoned travelers, a mother & a mother and daughter team & this is not a place where we would return to. We considered leaving...

We wanted a place at the beach to spend a couple days relaxing and enjoying the ocean, and we found that here at Las Lajas Beach Resort! Having the restaurant there meant that we didn't have to leave. The room was very large, the shower had amazing water pressure, the staff was wonderful and the weather cooperated! We'll be back!

This is a small, modest but comfortable full-service hotel in a spectacularly beautiful location. The restaurant serves very good and varied food, the pool is nice, the rooms are a bit dingy but good enough, and the beach is world class. The staff speaks English and is very friendly and attentive. Book it if you love the Pacific. A very good value.

The resort is really a small, somewhat remote and basic hotel with a very serviceable restaurant, an adjacent pool, and cheerful staff. Behind the hotel, it’s lawn leads to the loveliest beach and a perfect sunset. This won’t appeal to the luxury crowd, but for most Las Lajas is sure to spawn warm and vivid memories. Enjoy!
