Almicar is a nice and helpful host. He even picked me up and dropped me off from other places in the village several times. He was always available for questions and also gave me recommendations for activities. I found the yard with garden and hammock really great and I was able to relax well.

The small but nice place is in a beautiful garden with many birds ( even a toucan!) and sometimes a squirrel, wonderfully quiet and yet within walking distance of the restaurants or other important things. There was not so much live contact with the host family, but via chat contact the responses are quick, friendly and accurate. All accommodations in this place are pricey, this location could be a little cheaper, yet I would definitely choose it again next time. I had 4 great nights and 5 nice hiking days.

Quiet accommodation in a pretty garden but quite far from the center if you are on foot. A good mattress and a big screen are nice. Host is always available to help. However, the space lacks kitchen amenities and needs a good refresh or cleaning.

Amilcar's apartment is well-equipped and suitable for anyone who doesn't expect greater luxury. Amilcar was very nice, always responded quickly to messages and his brother even picked us up and drove us back to the stop (as the apartment is a little away and hidden from the center). It was a great fit for our two nights.

Great stay Amilcar, pick me up 1 mile or so from his house because I was lost. He did so on the fly, he was very friendly spoke English as well, and made me feel very relaxed. He was fast to respond to questions or concerns or recommendations re: El Valle, I only stayed 2 nights, next time I would stay longer as his place is equipped for long term stays.

Everything was perfect. very clean accommodation. Perfect welcome. Amilcar even picked us up from the city center upon our arrival. Very peaceful place. Regular bus passes in front of the house so very accessible. The house is in a pretty and large garden in which you can see passing in front of the terrace of squirrels and pretty birds. I would recommend this place ++ if you want to go to El Valle de Anton. Thank you very much Amilcar.

Really the place was quiet and modest the location a little confusing but they managed to guide me and I was able to get there.. I rented the place just to sleep so it was good for me.. despite not having air conditioning not hot because at night it made it cool to take a bath before going to sleep so that helped.. for those looking for something more luxurious is not the ideal place.. but for what I wanted to serve me.. I would use it again

The accommodation is super cute and has a very pleasant ambience. There is a private bathroom, but only with cold water (which is half as bad as it sounds). The accommodation is a little hidden, so it's best to call ahead and get directions. The kitchen has everything you need (cooker, small fridge, crockery, cutlery, spices). I would visit this accommodation again at any time. Thank you very much.

We enjoyed our stay in Amilcar place a lot. The room was nice and the garden is super beautiful. There's also a little kitchen attached that was just right for cooking our own dinners. Amilcar was a very friendly and helpful host. He even took us from the bus station when we arrived and his brother drove us into town when we left. I recommend this place for a pleasant and quiet stay in beautiful El Valle!

Amilcar’s little apartment is complete with all the basics that we needed for a couple of days. Kitchen have basic ingredients for cooking, pans, water, coffee and even cleaning products. There’s a dining area inside and also outside to enjoy the beautiful garden. The bed is comfortable, the linens used are in good quality for a pleasant and relaxing sleep. Bathroom has no hot water but we actually didn’t miss it, the cold water is perfect in this summer weather. Location is not very close to town but if you enjoy walking like we do then it’s perfect as the surrounding is beautiful. Also good to mention that, before check-in - Amilcar kindly picked us up with his car when he found out that we already reached the town, because of this we did not have to struggle in locating the apartment. All was smooth. It’s a bonus that we surely appreciated! Overall great and would recommend!

Amilcar was very nice and helpful. The place was very clean and as described. Two water bottles and filter coffee bags were provided free of charge. The only drawback is that the directions, which are on file on Airbnb, are not true. The apartment is 200 m away and would not have been findable without Amilcar. Nevertheless, it was a nice stay with a little walk to the city center. It should also be mentioned that Amilcar was very helpful and drove us for free to our other hostel in Valle de Antón.😊

Complete apartment with kitchen and bathroom. Everything you need is available. The situation is not good, but the buses to the center stop in front of the front door and it is accordingly convenient. The host is really very nice. Good to know is that the house is blue and not red as shown in the pictures. This makes it easier to find :D

Very good place for a weekend, very quiet and spacious. If they like to bathe in the warm water, it's excellent. It is very close to the main one, and it is very comfortable. Despite the check-in time, we were taken care of a thousand wonders. We would stay again.

Small apartment with everything you need to have a great weekend. It has a kitchen included, and everything was really clean! There was a coffee maker (with coffee), water, and touches that are fully appreciated. The apartment is left in a very nice property near the nature. For outdoor lovers (like me), I highly recommend it. Amilcar was totally proactive and very kind. The stay was super!

A simple and beautifully located place. Upon our arrival we did not find the accommodation, but Amilcar is very helpful and came within a few minutes to show us the way. The accommodation is perfectly located to explore El Valle and surroundings. We arrived by car, so everything was easily accessible. But also on foot (a longer walk) the main street with restaurants, shops can also be easily reached.

It is 1km off the Main street and very hard or impossible to find when you get there for the first time. Make sure to arrange pick up if you do not have a local sim card to call for indications. The room is a little dark but it was clean and we could use the porch of the main house at the others side of the building. We loved the green setting with plants all around.

It is a very private place to spend time with your partner, the map takes you to the place to recommend placing a sign for a better location for a better location when one arrives to know that it arrived at the place of the destination, the host responds quickly to the message and helps you to locate in general a good place to get lost on a weekend, the water from the shower is cold but very rich

Well, sadly I had to leave earlier than planned due to some downstream issues that came up. From an amenities and usefulness standpoint Amilcar’s unit was probably one of the best I have used outside of Panama City. The surrounding area is just beautiful and from a walking standpoint I would have loved exploring had my trip not been cut short. The kitchen was well equipped but because I do very little cooking myself when I travel I was concerned about the lack of restaurants nearby. I had just started to explore and found some nice places within a 20-25 minute walk including a very nice coffee cafe; I would have been good for a longer stay (no car)!

Inge

Super welcome by Amilcar, really friendly and helpful. Pleasantly welcomed us and made sure that we were taken to the hike La India Dormida a day later by his brother at our desired early time (05.15 am). Great! Still, we think the price is just a little too high for what you get. Quite basic space, insects (especially by the kitchen), and 'shared space' depicted in the pictures appear to be more involved with their private home than at the property itself (not inviting). Far from downtown, but you'll choose that. We will of course grant Amilcar and his family the best!

Room was ok, nice garden, we were allowed to use the private little pool, hard to find the wrong one. Maps coordinates ( the property is about 200 meters above on the left), unfortunately we cannot assess the friendliness of the host, as unfortunately there has been no conversation. We thought that was very unfortunate.

Beautiful location. If you stay here, keep in mind it's about a 20 minute walk into town. If you don't mind walking, it can be very relaxing to walk around the neighborhood as the whole area is gorgeous. Amilcar had his brother pick me up in town when I arrived and when I left he took me back into town himself. Really nice stay but just keep in mind you are a bit further away from town if you're the kind of person who needs quick access to shops/restaurants etc.

A nice and helpful host welcomed us in a large incredibly beautiful garden. The accommodation is within walking distance from the center ( approx. 20 -30 min ) The accommodation is located in the back of the apartment, which is pictured in the pictures. The room including small kitchenette & private bathroom offered us all the basics you need for an overnight stay. It is an accommodation in the green, that's why there is also a visit from bugs etc. The cold water was no problem for us. All in all. A solid place to sleep and explore the area from there.

I loved the hospitality of Amilcar and his family the most. Because there was a spontaneous being together on the grill, with some rum and beer 🇵🇦 The cold shower was a suggestion for me to use water a little safer in general, and that you can also start the day with a cold shower.

Place at Amilcar has all equipment you will need during hot times or rain. Cold shower sounds harsh but in Panama weather, there is no problem even with that. Amilcar was very kind and picked up us from the centre of El Valle at 10pm when we arrived that day by bus from Panama city. Since his place is 25 minutes from centre we cannot thank him enough!

Amilcar is an excellent host, very attentive and willing to help make your stay in El Valle the best. I was surprised at how complete the apartment, kitchen, coffee maker, etc. She took care of every last detail. The place where it is located is very pleasant, quiet and safe Amilcar took us in his car to the entrance of Dormida India, but before in a very good way he gave us a little tour of El Valle and he was explaining everything to us. It was a beautiful experience that we would definitely want to repeat.

Unfortunately we did not see our host in person but he was very helpful and quick to respond via phone or Airbnb. We did not find it at first but then he sent his brother to pick us up as he could not leave work. The accommodation is pretty much as you would expect from the pictures. There is an amazing garden, some friendly dogs and it is really quiet. The kitchen is ok to prepare a small meal. The bed is comfortable, Wifi is stable and fast. The only downsides were ants in the kitchen and bathroom and that the water is really freezing cold. Everything seemed a bit old and used but it was okay for a short stay.

Amilcar was very friendly and helped us with tipps. We even could wash our clothes there, which saved a lot of our time. The dogs, the garden and the terrace were really nice. However it was lacking on hygiene in the apartment. The small kitchen had a lot of ants and there were bed bugs in the bed, and my boyfriend and I had very scratchy next days. The bathroom on the other hand was very clean.
