Definately a place where we will go again. A bit hard to find if you are not from here, we are, so was easy. Great beach, waves. Loved the hotel, clean, Italian looking architect.

We found out about the Hotel Playa Cambutal while on a Chiriqui Viejo whitewater rafting trip. The hotel owners and their extended family happened to be using the same river guides we were.

What a delightful surprise. This hotel exceeded our expectation by a mile. It is new, attractive and well run. I am not a surfer but the beach break was perfect for boogieboards available at the hotel. The rooms and baths were so well finished it was like being in another world. If you go, plan to stay more than a... More
