Much improvement needed!
This place is a collection of multiple properties. I was put in a property that wasn't listed as an option on Hotels.com nor expedia. The pool in the photo wasn't operational. I had to walk a quarter mile to the actual resort to access functioning pools and other amenities. They don't offer enough chair on the beach to accommodate more than 20 people. A joke of an operation if you ask me. I booked an ocean view and the room I got was first a 4th floor with a parking lot view but I changed to the first floor with the SAME VIEW because the sliding door lock was busted. The rooms were condos with no cookware, plates, cups, nor utensils. And worst of all.....they don't provide FACE TOWELS! They only had drying towels and towels to step onto upon exiting the shower. Book at your own risk.

The property is beautiful on the outside but when you go into the rooms everything needs renovating, from the bathroom mirrors to the bedroom furniture…the food is the same every day no variety,it’s advertised as a bilingual resort..everyone speaks Spanish,minimal English and it doesn’t seem as if they’re even interested in making an effort…The alcohol is watered down,..when you go to beach the guys are there with their horses,that’s popping on the beach…then one of the hotel workers attempted to charge me $20 to use a beach chair that was already on the resort property..She claimed it was for customers that were at a particular beach restaurant (which there were none).,..Then they had stray dogs just roaming the resort,they come up while your eating or if your on the beach relaxing!!!,If I could rate it a 0 I would,but the servers where pleasant and it stop right there.

I don’t want to bash the place because the staff were AMAZING however this resort is for people on a budget and or locals from the area. Only reason I came here was because it was the half way point in meeting my long distance family. The Rui next door was a lot nicer and vibe was good.

2/10 Poor

Been to so many places all around the world never seen anywhere this bad. Totally overrated , totally unprofessional staff, totally inconvenient checking experience. THEY DONT EVEN HAVE CUPS TO DRINK WATER IN THEIR ROOMS. As you enter the facility it says “Good Vibes” there is nothing good about this place. The facility could be very good but whoever is managing it have no idea about what is all inclusive hotel is. DO NOT Spend your money in this places. They have much better airbnbs and cheaper hotels with much better quality.

Not good.
The location is good. The conditions of the rooms is poor. Sliding door lock will not work and using a pin. Doors do not close properly and noise gets in the room. The floor tiles and entire room need deep cleaning and new furniture. Conditions were really run down. Reservations at restaurants is a nightmare and can only be done during breakfast, lunch or dinner. How about ludricous. Will never recommended it.the value is 30% of they charge.

Just ok
It was just ok. I would say overall it was more of a 2.5 star hotel. Everything was a bit outdated, staff was just ok, check in was not great at all due to reservation mix up. I would only consider staying here if it was a few hundred cheaper off the overall price. Food was just ok too. Has a big potential due to location.

Not so good. The property requires important maintenance improvements, and the attitud of the front desk and staff is not good. Only the people in restaurants have the kindness and good mood that we spected

Great location, close to some bigger city, food is delicious with plenty of variety if you are not a picky eater, only issue is the wifi in rooms is spotty. AND BEWARE if you are renting a car, go with someone other than Budget who sold me extra insurance cause they were not seeing our expedia booking and then charged me extra for a tire when returned...

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.
