Lovely beaches and aquatic facility. The hotel rooms are tired (aged). The maid room service is poor. The French restaurant and breakfast buffet are good. The Italian restaurant fillet steak is good, otherwise be careful or you will be running to the toilet. For the price overall, it is a value.

Very attentive and pleasant staff. Great specialty restaurants you can take advantage of each night. Disadvantage: there are stand up paddles boards shown on the hotel pictures but this activity is not available. They are very strict with the kayaks as far as where you can take them and the time limit is very short.

This was not a 5 star hotel

Pros: The room was nice and clean. Most of the hotel staff was friendly. (bartenders, waiters/resses)
Cons: The managing of the hotel. The food definitely needs to improve. English classes for the staff.
Location: The hotel is located far from the city. There is not much nearby which is fine.
We stayed there for a week. We were there 10 minutes and we were trying to be up sold with a 90 minute presentation which would give us an additional $50 in hotel credit to an already $200 worth of worthless credits they provide. Although "all-inclusive", the food was horrible. Many nights, there were 3-4 items that they did not have on their menu of a list of 9. They never restocked the mini-bar of even sodas or juices in the week we were there even though they claim they do it every other day and would not stock it with soda our last day because we were leaving the next day even though they never stocked it, but this is an "all-inclusive", and we just wanted soda, not alcohol! The room was nice and clean. Had an adjoining room so could hear neighbors all too well at 6:00am!! The bed moved because not attached to wall or anything when there was anything more than sleeping on the bed. Most of the staff spoke very little english although they tried. The best people were the bartenders, waiters/ress, support staff, they were all very friendly and accommodating. (not the front-desk people) I have heard that other Dreams Hotels are better, but my 1st experience with this one is tainted so hesitant to stay at another one again.

Awesome place on beach

Pros: Everything was great
Cons: Nothing
Location: Location outside the city and we are not avid tourists but with driver, had great tour of the Canal and Old City. Recommendation is not to u-drive.
We had not been to an all inclusive for a number of years and Dreams Playa Bonita exceeded expectations. Panama was a tremendous place, had a great tour of the Canal at the Miraflores Locks, which provided a great overview of the operation. Service at hotel tremendous, food excellent and activities, while limited, were just what we needed for a relaxing holiday.
