"Beautiful small hotel ocean front, right on the sand! Our room was amazing and the outdoor shower was a bonus! It had a nice deck as well. The beach was large with salt & pepper sand and practically empty. There are lounge chairs with thatched umbrellas on the property by the private beach entrance. Plenty of on-site parking. Only thing I would change would be to add a small table & chairs as there's no place to sit in the room except on the high, comfy bed! AC worked great! FYI there's no elevator to the second/third floor but the staircase is beautiful! Would definately stay again! "
The Buenaventura Golf & Beach Resort Panama, Autograph Collection
6/10 Okay
"This resort was less than expected. At first I did nlt get the room view I picked from Expedia and had to claim. After my claim I felt mistreated based on my race as well. They did not have any birthday courtesies. Later I found out they did but categorized based on ethnicity. I originally reserved as single but later my parents came along. The place did not have ammenities out on beach or water tours for 3 or 2 o 1 person. The place was not spotless but decent clean. Pool lounches have stain spots and also beach towels have stains. Pool became un maintenance on 04/07/26 assuming it was "low season" [bizarre]. And main activities start thursdays thru saturday so there is nothing for the other natural days. Restaurants like DUNAS do not offer food all week so its a mislead. It was not worth 100% the price paid. I was dissapointed and expected more. "
"This is a great resort for families. The staff is wonderful, helpful, attentive and friendly. The pools, slides and food were great. My kids loved the activities. The pools were spotless and the active lifeguards were a very nice surprise for a parent. I’ve was concerned after I saw so many negative reviews but I think they must be taking the comments seriously because it was an amazing stay."
