Honestly, one of the best Airbnb stays I’ve ever had! The home was spacious, clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained, with an ideal layout and excellent amenities for our group. The location was perfect, within walking distance of great restaurants, and the neighborhood felt very safe and peaceful. Our host, Mauricio, was welcoming, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay, making everything seamless and stress-free. My only minor complaint is that the steam iron could use an upgrade 😂, but that certainly didn’t take away from the experience. Overall, I highly recommend this property and would absolutely stay here again. Looking forward to returning!

Amazing stay! The property was beautiful, spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. The host was also very accommodating and allowed us an extra hour in the living area of the property since we had a later flight, which we really appreciated. The only downside was that we weren’t really able to use the pool table because the 8-ball was missing. I mentioned it at check-in and was told they would look into it, but I never received an update or even a response after following up by text. If I could give it a 4.9, I absolutely would, but since the options are 4 or 5, I have to go with 4. Overall, it was a great stay and I’d happily return.

The house was really nice. We were accommodated with early check in which was great. We noticed an 8 ball was missing from the pool table which was noted when the host received us and gave us a tour. It was never addressed during our stay. We also reported issues via the app with the coffee maker and it was never remediated during our stay. The game room seems to clearly struggle with dampness and mold, because it reeked of ammonia and cleaning solution to the point where none of us used it all during the stay. The house is a great space, but the host is a management company leading to different individuals seeing and responding to messages, and also likely why no issues we reported during the stay were ever resolved.

We had an amazing stay overall and really enjoyed the property. The amenities were awesome, the house was comfortable, and it was a great place for our group to enjoy our time in Panama. There were a few minor issues worth mentioning. The basketball rim was a little damaged, and the pool table was still missing the 8-ball. We also decided not to use the game room because there didn’t seem to be much ventilation, and the humidity appeared to have caused some mold, so we felt it was best not to enter. That being said, none of these things took away from how much we enjoyed our stay. The property was amazing overall, and we had a great experience. With a little maintenance and attention to those areas, it would be even better and more accurately reflect everything shown in the listing. We would definitely recommend the property and would be happy to stay again.

Mauricio's place is perfect for group gatherings with plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms and entertainment area. There is literally something for everyone! It was that special balance of feeling right at home but also a relaxing getaway retreat. Would def recommend!
