I visited Playa Blanca and Panama City in August. My parents decided to purchase property there to retire and I wanted to check it out. We stayed at Playa Blanca for 6 days and I must admit I loved it. It was fun, not too load, not too boring and the food was actually great for an all-inclusive. People working... more

I didn't want to like this place since it is so massive and so different from Bananas, where I stayed last time, but geesh, just loved it. Why: 1. Great -- comfortable, never felt crowded-- facilities, restaurant, beach, pool and bars. 2. All-inclusive, even the pina coladas. So nice to pay once and be done with it! 3. Bargain for... more

We originally booked for Decamaron but I am happy to say that we went to Playa Blanca. I went with 3 boys and my mother - in Law. We all had a blast. The hotel lobby was spectacular. The service was great. One thing is that the people are humble and nice. The pools were delightful. My husband and children... more

Last year we stayed on St Andres Island in Columbia and really enjoyed ourselves, but so many travellers were raving about Panama that we decided to check it out for ourselves. Boy were they right! The Playa Blanca is the perfect resort. The food I must admit was a big surprise. There was such a variety.The buffet was excellent. Their... more

The website is completely false. The staff is horribly rude and unhelpful. Canned pop is not included. We have Felix the Friendly Wasp in our room. Organized team sports take place at the resort. Construction everywhere. We hope to get out by morning! Whatever you do, do not be fooled by the beautiful computer generated photographs on the website. more

Went down to Playa Blanca, April 21 (hottest month in Panama) 35 degrees was common with no rain except in Panama City. The 2 hour drive from the airport is much more than a bus ride, certainly an education for newcomers to the country. We were swiftly taken away moments after our airport arrival in our bus. English speaking tour... more

We returned from Playa Blanca on April 29. We had a wonderful time! We had an oceanview room in Buiding #7. The room was clean and the water hot. We were near the disco and the soccer field so at times it was noisy outside. If we were on the balcony the noise was not bothersome and if we were... more

The resort is not what expected. We had problems with the first room in which we stayed, later we changed rooms. Not enough towels, no remote controls, and no COLD water. It also smelled like mildew. The shower curtains don't go all the way to the floor so the bathroom floors always wet. There was only one good resturaunt, the... more

We have travelled alot (Cancun, Bahamas, Cuba, Florida, etc.) and this was our best trip yet! The resort is fantastic, staff excellent and friendly, food & drinks were great, a full slate of tours to choose from, golf nearby, and lots of beach to enjoy. It is just 1.5-2 hrs from Panama City, all divided highway. We stayed in Building... more
