A Hidden Gem in Panama, Exceeded All Expectations! We had the most wonderful stay at this charming boutique hotel in Panama. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcomed and cared for, everyone was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and attentive to our needs. The property itself is quaint, intimate, and beautifully maintained, with breathtaking views that made every moment feel like a dream. The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. It’s worth noting that while the resort is tucked away from the main city (which adds to its peaceful charm), they go above and beyond to accommodate any special requests or dietary restrictions. Just let them know in advance, and they’ll take care of you with excellence and care. We were so impressed by every detail of our stay and are already looking forward to returning. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a serene and personalized getaway in Panama!

Absolutely beautiful property with very friendly staff. The rooms and common area are very clean and welcoming. You will want to go to this place if you want a calm and relaxed atmosphere. The owners were very nice and came around often to see how everyone was doing. I would highly recommend El Regalo to anyone

We had a wonderful stay at the El Regalo. This boutique hotel is an absolute gem, remote and very private. We went for a walk and saw wild monkeys, it was amazing. The property was absolutely beautiful and very well maintained. The staff were so helpful arranging snorkeling tours and giving advice on where to dine and visit in Boquete. The food was delicious and the drinks were good and the rooms were clean and comfortable. We will definitely return!

We had an amazing stay at El Regalo Resort! We visited in July, during the wet season, so the hotel was very quiet but this just made our stay feel even more personal. The staff and owners were so lovely and helpful. They helped us book all our activities in Boca Chica, including a whale watching tour where we were lucky enough to see a mother and baby whale, as well as exploring the many remote idyllic islands and white sand beaches in the area, which was incredible. We are both vegetarian and the hotel and chef were so accommodating, cooking us something different every day and even providing packed lunches for our day adventures. The food and cocktails were delicious. The views from the hotel are absolutely stunning and you are surrounded by nature and interesting exotic wildlife the whole time, so there’s plenty to explore - you cannot beat the location. We had such a memorable experience and cannot recommend this hotel enough. We would love to stay here again soon!

This was a most special experience. Clearly, this is a special and magical place. Words do not adequately describe the beauty of this location. The staff was extraordinary. The service was impeccable. What a blessing to have spent several days here.

Small boutique hotel with a lovely atmosphere on a beautiful location. We felt totally away from everything not only as it was at the end of a dirt road but the serenity made us forget everything . Owners were accomodating and friendly. They were very responsive and organized our kayaking and snorkling trips as well. We enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and the food was wholesome and tasty. Even the cute little dogs made us feel welcome. Highly recommended
