Concluding our Panama trip at Playa Blanca, we faced challenges navigating the resort with a surprising lack of English-speaking staff. Dated rooms, limited accessibility, and the absence of coffee makers were notable drawbacks. Despite these issues, the food was plentiful and decent. Attempts to dine at other restaurants were hindered by a reservation only policy. The beach area was well-maintained, but concerns arose about the underweight horse used for rides. The pool deck was clean, but the water seemed cloudy. First-time at an all-inclusive, this experience has sparked my interest to continue exploring similar resorts.

Cuartos: huelen a clorox y lampara dañada, inodoro falta de mantenimiento Toallas: mucho olor a clorox Comida: buffet regular, comida en restaurante con reserva estaba bueno. Lo malo es que solo puedes reservar y el dia que llegas ya no van a haber reservas disponibles, si te hospedas 2 noches podras disfrutar 1 dia en restaurante con reserva Hotel: le falta mantemiento en general Servicio: regular. Al reservar por aqui, cuando llegas te quieren ofrecer paquetes para que no vuelvas a reservar aca. Cocteles: no muy buenos, deben mejorar Shows de adulto: deben actualizarse He ido 3 veces pero cada vez el hotel se encuentra en peores condiciones.

They have multiple options for units to stay in. We stayed at the Town Center towers, and we had a lovely view of the logan. A good selction of non resort eateries if you get tired of the resort food. Overall, relaxing, enjoyable and child friendly.
