Words can never express how much it breaks my heart to leave this place. From the literal moment I arrived the staff have been attentive, accommodating and so warm that I felt like I was with family and not alone in a foreign country. Panama keeps finding ways to hold my heart and this time around? Sofitel Legend did the work ❤️
