Bananas Resort is a nice 31/5 star place on the other side of Isla Grande in Panama. If you are looking to get away from it all and have some private time this is the place. It has nice clean rooms and the staff is friendly. The downside is no real beach to swim, music was low and only on... more

I went with three other people and we stayed for one night. We were on kind of a quick tour of panama and this was one of our stops. I would agree with other reviews about it being a solid 3 star resort not a 5 star. The management could be a bit better (we wanted to check out an... more

We have travelled a great deal through the USA, Asia, Europe and Canada, and have never experience anything this bad. We arrived on Dec. 27th, You drive from Panama city... more

Located on Isla Grande, there isn't a better place to stay! (In my opinion) My husband was born and raised in the Canal Zone in Panama and I have visited on three ocassions. We have been here to the island several times but this was the first visit to this particular resort. Upon arrival by boat you receive a free... more

Just got back from Bananas Resort on Isla Grande yesterday. It was a very nice place with large rooms (3 to an "A" frame). The bottom 2 are adjoining if required. The rooms were a little worn, but the beds were firm and good for sleeping. Hairdryers are also included in the room. There is a hammock on each balcony... more
