Hotel Posada Destiladeros

Hotel Posada Destiladeros

8/10 Good
"Hotel is a little rundown but they were making repairs. Our room was comfortable AC worked great, breakfast was nice and the pool was wonderful. The staff was kind and helpful but services were only available if you asked. For example; website says daily housekeeping. When we asked why our room wasn’t cleaned they said we didn’t ask for it. We had the only key to the room so they couldn’t clean unless we gave them the key. We couldn’t check in because they didn’t have power in the office. They asked us every day to go check in but when we tried they said “later”. We ended up checking in and out on the same day. (Not a problem for us.) They couldn’t provide a printout of charges. Sweet people but the place is a bit disorganized. We enjoyed our time there because it was quiet and peaceful. Very few people were there which we liked. We live in Panama so we’re use to things very relaxed and off beat. If you’re looking for a 5 star resort with lots of services this isn’t it. If you want beauty, peace and quiet among friendly staff in a beautiful setting and don’t mind quirky and rustic THIS IS IT! This met our expectations so we will be back!"

"My husband and I couldn't have a better experience. This place has all you need to rest, relax and enjoy yourself. The place is well mantain, the hosts are so friendly and courteous, it felt like home. My husband and I had stay in many places but this one surpassed all. I loved their eco-friendly system, and the place is centric to all beaches in the area."

Beautiful Villa in Pedasi, Beach View.

Beautiful Villa in Pedasi, Beach View.

8/10 Good
"We've stayed 2 weeks at the villa in march.The villa is huge, well equiped, the kitchen is very very big.The AC works very well, and all rooms are equiped with AC, so it's very convenient.We were only two persons, so we had plenty of space in the villa !The pool is great, big and hot every day because the temperatures don't go down under 25 degrees at night, so the pool is always hot, almost 32 degrees in the afternoon !The villa is located in a gated communauty, with vigils and cameras ;You need a car to go to the Pedasi village to buy food, go to the restaurants, and visit the area and the beaches around.You need to be independant because it's a self cattering, and need to count on yourselves ;By the way, the area is far away from the capital Panama City (we wanted that sort of far away village, more authentic and genuine Panama).The garden is nice but needs to be done.We enjoyed swimming in the pool every day, and lazing on the terrace."

10/10 Excellent
"The communication before and during was fast and clear, which is always appreciated. The house is gorgeous and well appointed. We loved the living areas, beds, hammock, and of course the pool. Everything was clean which was such a relief after a much different rental experience we had the week before in Pedasi. The house is in a beautiful neighborhood close to town. And we loved the landscaping. We plan on renting the house next time we’re in town. "
