We loved the relaxation and beautiful gardens at Hotel Posada. The staff are wonderful, friendly, and kind. It was lovely to come back from a sunny day sightseeing to a float in the pool or to play in the waves on the beach. Hotel Posada helped us fall in love with Panama.
We had a very relaxing stay, lovely to walk on the beach before breakfast and chill by the pool in the daytime.
The food was most enjoyable and overall it was a good value stay.
The arrival/check-in process could have been smoother - we arrived within the specified times but could not enter the gate as we didn't have the gate code and neither the video doorbell or the phone was answered.
The view from our room was amazing, truly a million dollar view! Our host was extremely welcoming and friendly and the food from the restaurant was amazing. Overall a great experience and we will definitely be back soon!
The sea view was amazing and it had easy access to the beach. The breakfast was lovely. The hosts are very helpful. The restaurant evening meal was wonderful, we had fresh fish and shrimp. A good selection of drinks was also available. A short drive from Pedasi. We also saw a yellow caracara at breakfast as well as a black vulture.
Excellent hotel. My room was at waters edge. Well maintained and incredible view of the Pacific. Staff was incredible. They loved my dog and made breakfast for him. Will definitely come again

Most everything was fine except for a couple of things. The people in the cabin next to me (I think they were workers or family) would leave their dog in the room and it barked and howled and bashed against the door constantly. All day. No one should treat a dog this way and it took away from the calmness of the resort. The pool could use a cleaning
Hotel Posada Destiladeros is an undiscovered gem on the Azuela Peninsula! I enjoyed a rejuvenating 3 day stay in the Vietnam room, overlooking deserted Ocean beaches. A professional chef prepared meals with ingredients sourced locally - including fish and seafood. I watched the sunrise and sunset from my deck and walked on beaches during the day. Muy tranquilo.
Stayed in the "Bobby". Very happy with staff and accommodations. Outdoor pool was a nice change of pace. Great walks on beach exploring. Included breakfast was wonderful on the patio in front of the restaurant. A bit of trouble getting into resort as it is gated and needed a pin code, but once we got in, friendly staff greeted us.
Beautiful property on a lovely private sandy beach. Most days there were only a couple of people on the beach. Glorious sunsets. The facilities were wonderful. Friendly professional services provided by Mayrubis.
Food and food service was excellent. Your place is a great place to escape the world. If you want more business you need to look for customers outside of Panama. Your place is like a small hotel association in Germany Romantik Hotels.
The hotel is on an outstanding beach. The first room they took us to, the one we had booked online via Expedia, was dark and a little creepy. We asked for another, and with a small upcharge stayed at a charming cottage right by the beach. Beautiful room with an unobstructed view. Breakfast the next morning was exceptional as well.
We are so disappointed at the uninspired greeting we received when we arrived. The entrance is not welcoming. When we figured out where the unattended front desk was we were less than greeted. I felt like we were putting the host out. That continued as he pointed to
our room and pointed to the stairs to get to the beach. That lack of service continued at dinner when the service was depressing. We felt like we should leave and go to town instead of inconveniencing the poor grumpy guy but we had been driving all day. His personality shifted from drab to rude. We wanted a treat on vacation so we were going to order a cocktail and dessert. After waiting for over an hour we left without.
This place could be such a gem. The beach is so close to the expansive grounds, which are wonderful, but the opportunity was missed by bad customer service. There is no place to sit comfortably to relax with a book. The sparse chairs are extremely uncomfortable. The simple process of putting out some comfortable chairs and/or hammocks could have changed the experience. Additionally, the pool was dirty. We will not come again, which is sad because it has so much potential.
I can’t leave this bad review without adding that the breakfast staff was awesome. They were friendly and did an amazing job. The food at our first dinner was good too. It was sadly overshadowed by the bad service so we did not go back.
