The windows are outstanding. They enable you to get fresh air and a great view. Very comfortable. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. We did take a translator device because our Spanish is limited. We were there for two weeks and chose not to rent a car (which we regretted when we learned there were no restaurants) but we had the services of Marco for transportation. He was very helpful and we highly recommend him. Others, mostly owners, were mostly absent until the holidays but everyone was considerate so there was not offensive noise.⁹ We would enjoy staying there again.

What Guests Said About San Carlos:

    San Carlos is a very sleepy town that shuts down by 8:00 PM.

    San Carlos is a very sleepy town that shuts down by 8:00 PM. It’s a great place if you just want to relax but I would recommend renting a car if you enjoy eating later in the evening. There is only one Uber driver for the area so do not count on Uber. Taxis were more plentiful depending on time of day. We stayed 4 nights. 3 would have been sufficient. El Palmer beach has nice big waves that are great for jumping and beginner surfing.

    The tranquil vibe of the resort was perfect.

    The tranquil vibe of the resort was perfect. The garden and the covered terrace provided relaxation in the shade from the sun and the relaxing sound of rain landing on palm fronds during the normal daily tropical rain that’s common during the time of year that we visited. Just a step outside the garden and we were on the beach. The children played in the sand and gathered seashells while my wife and I relaxed in the shade. Our son fell asleep in the hammock between two palm trees. Life is good.

    I’ve been lucky enough to visit more than 30 countries, and obviously countless hotels. I have never stayed anywhere as beautiful and utterly rewarding as ‘A Piece of Paradise’ though. This place will stay with me forever. 💕 Thank you Ayana, Dora and all the staff for making this place so incredibly special.

    It's a beautiful beach place, very down to earth and truly original Panama. It's actually a great place for families to stay at a very nice beach. If you want to go to the big beach in San Carlos it's only a few minutes, but also the beach front of the hotel is really nice and very peaceful.
