Very nice area, it was once you Sheraton and we loved it then. We had many people and were able to fit all in three rooms. Food was fantastic, pools are great, but too bad about the bar! And the beach, magnificent as always in Panama. We will be back so we can enjoy the pool bar hopefully get complementary upgrade! Thank you so much
