Playa Blanca Beach Resort - All Inclusive

Resort focused on locals. Some staff don’t even speak English. Rooms are dated with broken furniture. Bathroom with faulty toilets and gunk in the shower glass. Food s not bad but repetitive and boring. Specialty restaurants food is mediocre with premium to visit tepanyaky and steak. Pool music is based on small groups that bring their own boombox and it becomes very noise and annoying. Beach is rough with a step made which can be dangerous for kids specially. We rented a vehicle to go visit sites around. The rental comes with surprise extra insurance to be paid at the time you pick up your car, and cannot be avoided according to local laws. Overall, for comfort, and pleasure it disappoints. If you’re one of those that can make the best decision f anyplace without being too fancy, go for it.

We stayed at Playa Blanca Resort in Panama for 9 days with family and had 3 different rooms. The resort is beautiful and has great potential, especially the view of the artificial beach from our room, but the lack of maintenance, cleanliness, and service was very disappointing. All 3 rooms were missing basic furniture or amenities. The built-in kitchens were useless because there were no plates, cups, utensils, pots, pans, or anything in the cabinets. Our room did not even have a refrigerator and was missing a desk chair. It was also very dirty under the cabinets and furniture, which was concerning because our 12-month-old was crawling around. My in-laws’ first room smelled like feces and had mold, so they had to move. This was a serious health concern because my father-in-law is 94. Their second room had a broken bed. Staff said it would be changed and later claimed it had been, but it had not. We had to move an unused bed from our own room ourselves. We also requested a wheelchair for my father-in-law on day one, but did not receive it until day three. The food was generally good and most restaurant servers were kind, but we saw rat droppings on buffet tables two days in a row. The reservation system was also difficult for multiple rooms. Beach towels were only available in one faraway location, so we kept the same towels all 9 days. Overall, the resort is beautiful, but it needs major improvements in cleanliness, maintenance, communication, and hospitality.

I broke my left foot walking down the steps by the check in and security was so very helpful in getting me to my room. Thank you for your service.

Beim CheckIn wurden wir erst einmal zwischen TownCenterReception und HotelReception hin- und hergeschickt, das Personal an der TownCenterReception schien völlig unmotiviert. Das Apartment im TownCenter war völlig abgewohnt und in schlechtem Zustand. In Ecken und hinter dem Bett war es völlig verdreckt. In der Nacht durften wir mehrere Kakerlaken töten. Der sogenannte Zugang zum Salzwasserpool ist ein Witz. Den Bereich für die Anwohner darf man gar nicht nutzen, nur ein kleines Stück am hinteren Ende ist zugänglich. Dort sind dann so wenige Liegen, dass man gleich wieder gehen kann. Am Strand sieht es nicht besser aus. Kaum Liegen vorhanden, niemand fühlt sich verantwortlich, man kann sich also in den Dreck legen. Getränke gibt es in winzigen Wegwerfplastikbechern, die Qualität ist mies. Ebenso das Essen im Buffetrestaurant. Gut ist einzig das italienische Restaurant MammaMia, allerdings muss man dann Wein zum Essen trotz "AllesInklusive" extra zahlen - Unmöglich! Insgesamt war der Aufenthalt hier enttäuschend!

I read the bathroom do not ha

Good value. Had a great stay.

I’m writing this review after staying at this hotel twice, and unfortunately, my experience has been consistently disappointing. The food is extremely basic—far below what you would expect in Panama, a country known for its amazing cuisine. It honestly felt very low quality and repetitive. The only positive aspect is the staff. They are kind, friendly, and do their best with what they have. The pool is also nice and enjoyable. However, the biggest issue is the condition of the facilities. The hotel looks old, poorly maintained, and quite neglected. Everything feels outdated and not taken care of, which makes the overall experience very disappointing. I gave this place a second chance, hoping things would improve, but nothing changed. I would not stay here again and would not recommend it unless major improvements are made.

Food was great, we had a great time. Property is really big, plan for a lot of walking. The whole thing with access to salt water pool is very confusing ask a lot of questions before booking. The rooms need to be updated. Doors don’t work, things like that. Other than that is a good resort if you don’t care about older structures.

Checked out before my checkout date.

ideal para familias

Guys, please don't stay there, it was the worst hotel I've stayed at in my life. It took me 4 hours to get there from the airport, when my friend and I arrived at the hotel, the room was dirty, stain on the sheets, and the bathroom was a mess. Although the staff was very sweet, and they changed my room, I didn't have a good time during my stay, the hotel falsely advertises itself as a luxurious resort, however, it is not that!!!

Muy buena experiencia, el lugar, los empleados, complacidos!

clean room

No Hot water, AC not working for the entire stay

Todo muy bien mi familia disfruto mucho, habitaciones e instalaciones limpias La comida estuvo muy Buena

Long and tediuos check in process. Room looks old, like the whole complex. Poor maintenance, no hot water. You need to walk the whole hotel to get and return towels. Low quality of drinks and foods, not many options. Staff is friendly.

My mom went there for her birthday and she was really happy.

Piscinas, resbaladeros

The pool, slides, beach access, food were great.

Room was in good condition. Service staff very helpful. The hotel rooms were in proximity to the pools and had good beach access.
