Funky surfer world with good restaurants.
Funky surfer world with good restaurants. Feels like real Panama. Pleasant and relaxing except for the last 20k driving on the rough gravel road under heavy construction (Feb 2025). Once finished it will be great. Difficult drive at dusk and after dark with people on horseback. No gas station in town so be sure to fill up when on Hwy 5 in Sona or at the one Delta station about 1/2 way to Santa Catalina.Guest review byEnzo MMUnited States - 10.0
Santa Catalina is a lovely little village.
Santa Catalina is a lovely little village. The atmosphere is relaxing, people are friendly and it’s a nice place to hang out. The snorkeling and diving at Coiba island are impressive and gorgeous. A definite must!!Guest review byMariaPanama - 6.0
Santa Catalina is an interesting place.
Santa Catalina is an interesting place. If I were younger and a surfer, it might be awesome. At this stage it feels like it is still the frontier, the “wild west” of Panama. It is obviously super popular with the crunchy backpacker and surfer crowd, and judging by the development taking place (golf course down the road), it will soon be popular with the expats and gringos as well.Guest review byGlenUnited States - 10.0

Good place to have a day trip to Coiba, we did an excellent snorkelling tour with Watching Dolphins. Playa Estero is very pleasant for a lazy afternoon ( but better with a car!). Some pleasant restaurants in the village : We liked lodge bar and restaurant, very good and friendly. Very disappointed by Los Penguinos, beautiful view and nice for a drink, but very very very long service. There is an ATM near the Pharmacia and supermarket.Guest review byClaudeFrance - 10.0
I’ve been to Santa Catalina about 9x in the last 15 yrs.
I’ve been to Santa Catalina about 9x in the last 15 yrs. It’s clearly a place I enjoy. I’m there for the diving. If you go there to dive you should visit Isla Coiba … it’s world class. Of course you also have surfing, kayaking, fishing, walking on the beach or just relaxing at your hotel pool. Highly recommend getting out and enjoying one of the many restaurants. I also really like the people, who I find friendly and hard working. Hangout by the beach at sunset and you’ll find locals & tourist playing volleyball or just sitting over a cold beer enjoying the view.Guest review byJoeUnited States - 8.0
Santa Catalina is quiet surf town.
Santa Catalina is quiet surf town. During the day, most of the restaurants were closed. There are two beaches, the nicer one is Estero beach, which is good place to surf, even for the beginners. You can do snorkling trips, diving, surf or kayaking to the Santa Catalina island, where the beach was great and water clear.Guest review byRiikkaJJFinland

- From $99 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.5Very Good - What previous guests thought, 791 reviewsWithout a doubt (one of) the best locations you will find in Catalina. The views from the garden + deck are unmatched. Very kind and warm staff, excellent breakfast and dinner. We had a great day trip to Coiba arranged via the hotel. Also, many restaurants within a short walking distance! Nice pool. But the biggest magic is the view, truly stunning and nothing short of paradise. Very happy to have stayed here.Guest review byLiesbethNetherlands
- From $66 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.4Very Good - What previous guests thought, 605 reviewsThe location is unbeatable: very close from Santa Catalina main street (use the handy shortcut by the beach), and has amazing shared facilities, such as the pool and the nice bar and patio area. The budget twin room is literally just a tiny room with two beds, full stop, but it's a great deal because you will still have access to all the amazing share facilities. Staff is nice and helpful.Guest review byCarol40Italy
- From $72.60 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.1Very Good - What previous guests thought, 375 reviewsThe hotel is right on the ocean -- the surfers walk down the stairs to the beach and start surfing. My room had a lovely view of the water and there are plenty of terraces with comfortable chairs that also look out on the ocean. The staff is very laid back but very helpful. The restaurant/bar is open all of the time, and the food is good.Guest review byPhilipUnited States
- From $61.99 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.2Very Good - What previous guests thought, 828 reviewsFantastic location at the beach. About a 20 minute walk from Santa Catalina. Although this walk is during the daytime very hot and exposed to the sun. With, hopefully in the near future, improvements this could be a top location.Guest review byJeroen Smit BloemendaalNetherlands
