The owner, Carlos Alfaro, is the creator of all the buildings on the site although he is not an architect. Each suite, room, chalet, and cabin is different with charming details and beautiful woodwork. He is also an environmentalist and most of the food is grown or farmed in the area. The kitchen cooks fresh bread every day. Everyone in... More

While in Panama City I was able to make a last minute reservation at Los Quetzals Lodge for about six nights. But because of my dilatoriness we needed to switch rooms a few times during our stay because other guests had already reserved the room, but that really worked out fine and now having stayed in four different accommodations at...

We stayed 3 nights in Los-Quetzales Lodge - family of three (with 17 years old daughter). The first night we spent in the cabin - and I need to admit it wasn't our cup of coffee. Probably we weren't ready to this kind of staying, and I definitely understand, that other people could find this experience wonderful. For us the... More

We recently went to Panama for two weeks and specifically went to Los Quetzales for the hiking portion of our trip, driving from Panama City. The hiking in Panama left a lot to be desired. The famous Los Quetzales trail is in disrepair and does not look like it will ever be reopened. We did hike up to the landslide... More

I stayed in one of the hotel-style rooms and it was simple but fine. Maybe slightly overpriced for the area (a lot of lodging is in Panama), but clean, staff were friendly, and I loved the dining room and common areas. Breakfast and wifi included (so I can't comment on those who say the restaurant was overpriced - I found... More

We visited Los Quetzales Lodge having read good and bad reviews that eventually decided us against actually staying there. The lodge is tucked back at the end of the street in the small settlement of Guadelupe. The structure is wooden with a reception downstairs and outside steps leading to the restaurant and lounge area. It's lovely up there, rustic and... More

Los Quetzales lodge was one of the best places we have ever visited. The rooms are extremely comfortable and homey with very good beds and wonderful fireplaces. The lodge is large with plenty of comfortable chairs and couches to just hang out for those rainy afternoons and visit with other guests. The restaurant is not only lovely but has the... More

We just needed a weekend getaway - this was great. The hotel is cute and funky with lots of charm, the upstairs bar and lounge are nicely done and comfortable. The Bartender, Andy, is simply super and helpful. Los Quetzales has put extra touches everywhere - in the game room, in the hallway tile decorations, in the restaurant, and in... More

WE LOVED EVERY MINUTE except when we had to leave. One night at the wonderfully comfortable luxury lodge and next 3 nights in the cloud forest in a rural cabana. Carlos, the owner and his staff were perfect hosts. Meals and facility was equally awesome. Best experience in Panama we had in 3 weeks of travel. More

We only stayed here 4 days, but it was just about the best experience we have had in 20yrs, Carlos the owner has built a complex of Swiss like cabins, tree houses, and an ordinary bunk house for those on a tighter budget. The main lodge has the restaurant on the 2nd floor with a large fireplace, couches, and game... More
