We had a wonderful experience! The apartment was beautiful, clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was incredibly welcoming, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay. Everything was perfect, and we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommended!

The complex is exceptional. The apartment met all our expectations and is almost in front of the beach. My family loved it and they told me that it was one of the best places we've been able to stay for a vacation together in Panama.

It's an honor for us to be considered one of the best places to vacation together in Panama. Thank you for your trust and for sharing your experience. It will always be a pleasure to have you again.

Playa Escondida is very nice. The beaches are very quiet and shallow, ideal for hanging out and even just sitting, and also ideal for kids. The apartment was spectacular, very comfortable, 3 comfortable bedrooms, each with a bathroom, and also a maid's room with a bathroom. The kitchen is very well equipped, there's a giant TV, and a comfortable balcony. You have a restaurant, cafe/ice cream parlor, 2 pools and the beach very close, all less than 200 meters away. Definitely highly recommended. Alanna was very attentive at all times and explained many things about Playa Escondida well.

It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and I'm so glad I could help with recommendations and arrangements during your stay.

It was a pleasure to have you, and we're glad to hear you enjoyed the apartment, the views, and each of the spaces. We love that the welcome gift for the Deleones family made their stay even more special. We hope to receive you again soon!

After a disappointing experience at another property, we found this place at the very last minute, and it completely turned our trip around. Alanna and her team responded to our request that same evening and went above and beyond to accommodate us. They not only prepared the unit for an early check-in, but also allowed us to access the amenities well before the official check-in time, which made all the difference. The property itself is absolutely beautiful. The unit is spacious, impeccably designed, and incredibly comfortable. But what truly sets this place apart is the hospitality. It's a perfect reminder that while beautiful infrastructure is important, genuine service is what transforms a stay into an unforgettable experience. Thank you, Alanna and your wonderful team, for your kindness, flexibility, and outstanding care. We can't wait to come back and would wholeheartedly recommend this property to anyone visiting the Portobelo area.

Thank you so much Mileidy for your wonderful words and for trusting us after a difficult experience elsewhere. We are truly delighted that Marina Escondida could turn your trip around and provide the comfort and care you needed. It was our pleasure to welcome you with flexibility and genuine hospitality, and we are thrilled that you enjoyed both the property and our service. Your recommendation means the world to us, and we look forward to hosting you again whenever you return to Colon. Warm regards from our entire team!

The apartment is bigger and nicer than it looks in the pictures. The host communicated from the beginning until check-out, always friendly and communicative, open and helpful with the requested extras. The apartment is super equipped, with a large balcony overlooking the ocean. This is the best beach complex in Panama. It has all the services you can think of, is super clean and organized down to the last detail, all the staff are super friendly, and the food at the restaurants is very good. Really great value for the price. I highly recommend it.

El apartamento es mas grande y mas lindo de lo que parece en las fotos.

The apartment is beautiful. We found everything impeccable. You really feel at home. It's very comfortable and has a beautiful view of the sea. It's steps from the coffee shop, the little store and one of the restaurants. Alanna is a great host. She stayed in touch the whole time and helped us check in early, since my husband needed to be connected for a video conference. We are very grateful for being welcomed, and we recommend them without a doubt!

El departamento es precioso, encontramos todo impecable, realmente uno se siente como en casa, muy cómodo y con una vista bella hacia el mar, a pasos de la cafetería, la tiendita  y uno de los restaurantes.

It was a pleasure to be able to help you with the early check-in and to accompany you during your stay. Thank you for recommending us so warmly. Our house will always be open to welcome you back with open arms. See you soon!

La Playa Escondida is the most beautiful beach that I have seen in Panama - and I have visited many. It has been developed as a gated community, with maybe ten blocks of apartments plus a few houses. All are close to the sea-front, plus also maybe six shallow swimming pools, all very safe for children. We visited two restaurants which had excellent food and mixed drinks. The nearest pool to our apartment was maybe two minutes walk, four to the sea. The apartment was spotless, and well equipped, with the largest TV I have ever seen! My only complaint was that, whatever we did, the air conditioning was too cold for me - but at the age of seventy-nine, this may be a personal problem? This is on the Caribbean, around one and a quarter hours drive from my home in Panama City, closer, and with much better beaches, than those on Pacific near to Coronado. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much James for your kind words and for sharing such a detailed review of your stay at Marina Escondida. We’re delighted you enjoyed the beach, pools, restaurants, and the comfort of the apartment. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’re glad the Caribbean side gave you such a memorable experience. We’ll take note of your feedback on the air conditioning to make sure every guest feels perfectly comfortable. We look forward to welcoming you back for another relaxing getaway ☀️

We had an excellent experience at this place in Playa Escondida.

Communication was smooth at all times, and their willingness to help made everything even more comfortable and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this place 100%. We hope to be back soon!

The accommodations where very comfortable and very clean. We enjoyed our time visiting the area. Alanna was very responsive every time we had a question. We were able to meet her and her husband due to a very small problem with the toilet. Both were very kinda and apologetic with the problem but it did not affect us. We enjoyed the activities during the carnival, what a great surprise for us, we did not know the carnival was happening when we booked our stay. I would come to the condo again. I recommend this location and beautiful condo while visiting Panamá.

Thank you so much, Maria, for your kind words and for choosing our condo for your stay.
