Beautiful property, great service

It’s a beautiful hotel and the service is exceptional. The pool area and the views are very special. I would also like to commend some of the staff who were most helpful and friendly during my stay. Julissa in room service was very friendly and genuinely committed to her guests, a smiling face to greet me each morning. Jesus at the front desk and Shaun both went above and beyond to help answer my questions and replace a lost key. The staff represent the hotel and the warm and friendly country of Panama very well.
