We had a lovely, quiet and relaxing stay. The staff was super accommodating and helpful, going out of their way to please our needs. Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. Very relaxing and tropical scenery. Restaurant menu was varied and delicious. Only downside is the main road to get to the hotel — you need at least an SUV to get there, specially when it’s rainy. Will definitely come back during the summer!
It was a last second choice and only for one night. The room was perfectly adequate, nothing special but clean.
Parking and checking, simple and accessible.
The view from our room was absolutely spectacular!
But, as foodies, the chef at this property was over the top fantastic. We commend him for his friendliness and generously, sharing his time and his talents with us. And we regret that we were unable to stay for lunch.
Hotel Punta Franca is a real paradise!
A great place to stay and relax on the pacific cost of Panama.
Not my first time here and o always return to this little resort with the super comfortable rooms and suits viewing the ocean from a cliff, private beach, pool and open jacuzzi , fine restaurant and good breakfast, great positive and welcoming team. If you are looking for a place to stay and relax, this is certainly the place
ITS AMAZING! I feel like I am in a 5 star hotel. The view is breathtaking. I wish I could stay more! ❤️ the only feedback I have is the cleaning products, they have a very strong smell, but aside from that, everything was absolutely perfect

The ocean view on this property is breath taking. The staff was nice and quick to make your stay great.
Loved the view & the staff! Room lacks amenities- no coffee, no drinking glasses, only 2 towels - not a big deal for us, but others may just want the heads up. Fantastic view and super friendly staff! Recommend
The location is amazingly beautiful, the beaches are fantastic and the buildings are good (they are doing maintenance and it was not so nice to look at all the construction. But the road to get here was a night mare, it was rocky and with big holes. Also google map and WASE were confused on where it was. It kept taking us down the wrong roads. I arrived super stressed out because of it. Otherwise love the place.
La ubicación es increíble así como las vistas al mar, el personal muy amable y atento en todo momento. Lo único que recomiendo mejorar es el mantenimiento de la piscina ya que es un aspecto importante de la propiedad.
Exceptional destination, peaceful and beautiful, we enjoy plenty of breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. The staff were very kind and demonstrate special attention to out kids which is very much appreciated. The place is pet frindly which is a plus for us traveling with out per. Also the meals were excellent. Very happy with our stay, deffinitively we will come back.
The view is amazing.
Food is good.
Need to bring water with you, if not you will end buy a 1.50 bottle everytime you need water.
Overall is a nice and quiet place. One of the pool the botton look dirty.
The view from the restaurant is spectacular. In my opinion one of the best scenic spot in Panama. The property is old and difficult to get to. But did I mention the view 😁
This is fine for a few days. The beaches are local and the sea warm. Whilst they claim to have internet in every room, my room (5) did not have internet in it. The food is average and the drinks seems overly pricey - $7.42 for 2 cokes… That aside the views are amazing and the constant roar of the pacific is amazing. I would go back, but only for a few days, its not a place to stay longer
