We normally visit Playa Blanca Resort in low season. This was our third visit, taking advantage of a local promotion that often comes between August and September. For US$ 140 per night (02 adults and a 05 year old child), all inclusive, one more time we had a great experience. The resort is about 1 hour 45 minutes away from... more

I stayed at Playa Blanca last August with a few friends. The rooms were anything but clean. As soon as we stepped into the room, we could smell mold. As soon as we put our legs inside the blanket, we could immediately feel that there were fleas. My legs were red and swollen for two whole weeks after I returned... more

we just returned from 10 days at the playa blanca hotel. the weather was beautiful beach was nice but on the weekends locals come in and the lines for food are ridicluous. the rooms were kept clean but PLEASE lock up anything of value. my dad who traveled with us for the first time to panama had a diamond ring... more

My family and I stayed for three days during the low season. The beach was beautiful, clean, and relaxing. We had no problem finding chairs with beach umbrellas, it was not crowded. The shows are in Spanish, but the MC tries to incorporate a couple words of English, so the Americans feel comfortable. You can always find something that you... more

This is our 5th time to Panama. We love the country and the people. Playa Blanca has such great potential, beautiful pools and beach, but was a big disappointment. To make an internet reservation you end up using a 3rd party travel agent, so if there are any issues, the resort just blames the travel agency. Rooms are average and... more

I am just back from 6 days at Playa Blanca and I had a wonderful time. The beach and the resort were beautiful. I read a number of negative reviews on this website before I left and I am glad that I ignored them. I have been to Central America several times (Nicaragua, Belize and Costa Rica) and I found... more

The hotel is just as beautiful as it looks in the pictures. However, that is where the resembelance ends. Service is terrible, and I mean extremely terrible. Once you're checked in, forget any help from the front desk. People are very nice, but completely unresponsive. When we checked in we were on the first floor with a view of the... more

The best holiday ever. Food, nature, weather, Pacific, staff, beach, peace... Our 12 year old daughter wants nowhere else never again. The best was the really quiet beach and the great buffet, all-inclusive means you don't need money anywhere. And all those exotic birds and plants, really marvellous. Only some other tourists didn't have good tablemanners in the buffet. If... more

I spent two days with my wife and adult daugthers. Food was a major dissapointment, particularly the buffet. We were there on week-days and the restaurant:s' schedules were severely cut-back. The offerings of the snack-bar, the only place serving food during they day between meals. were truly awful, and the drinks, whether alcoholic or nott, were served in small plastic... more
