I went with my son for his birthday and it was amazing, very pricey but celebrated his 16th birthday and we had a blast! The hotel staff made it very special for us and they were excellent. We enjoyed all 3 nights there.

Wow! This resort is absolutely amazing! Bekar went above and beyond for us! He even brought in a TV to the lobby so we could watch the NHL playoff game! Food is 10/10 as well. We will definitely go back!

Terrible road to get to the resort. Be prepared - the road urgently needs to be paved. Resort is beautiful and restaurant was pretty good. Had to send one order back due to fish being old/fishy tasting. Really irritated to have music played at the pool. Trying to relax and enjoy the sound of the ocean and instead there was constant bass/dance music being played. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful, where possible.

The Hotel is beautiful with a great location.
We spent three nights and we have dinner the three nights, I recommend more options for the menu and also offer night specials, more drinks options as well maybe happy hour specials, our last dinner the tuna wasn’t good (no fresh) we still enjoy our wine, entrances and deserts.

Zensational, the settings spare no detail, since arrival you are treated as the most important person in the island. Adriana provided the surfboard, Luciano, John & Carolina therapeutical massages. Diana e Eugenia lead meditations. Hilary, Ceani, Mariano & Diana provide world class service at dinner and breakfast. A must visit.

Excellent property, beautiful, great food, chef is excellent. It is a little pricey, but well worth it. Downside is that it is a ways away from downtown bocas. Where there is more happening. We rented a motor scooter which allowed us to do more things

This location is beautiful. The staff had a sense of calm and kindness that welcomed us upon arrival and upon departure. Deep tissue massage from Kim was perfect and the morning yoga was challenging enough to make me feel like I wasn’t being lazy on vacation.

Very difficult to get around because of the only unpaved road. The resort was fine. If you go there, plan on staying 3-4 days because it’s very hard to get to due to the only bumpy road.

Gorgeous spa hotel nestled in an amazing Panamanian jungle surrounded by wildlife. A lot of thought and effort has gone into designing this hotel to make it a tranquil oasis for anyone looking to escape the modern world. Spa facilities were beautiful and the food was of incredible quality. An improvement this hotel could make however is the staff attitude (which at times felt less friendly then it could be) towards helping customers and the timeliness. Things to be aware of: the hotel rooms do not have televisions or sound systems - that’s presumably intentional as this is meant to be an escape. The road to the hotel is bumpy and unkept due to proximity to the sea.

La Coralina is incredible! It feels like you are staying at a 5 star hotel with high end amenities, from the bedsheets, gym, pool and hotel grounds. The staff is extremely attentive, friendly and helpful. Will definitely be returning and cannot recommend highly enough!

Amazing experience, with the perfect mix...
The experience since the arrival was spectacular. The location, the service, the food experience.
We are a family of 4, 3 surfers and 1 non-surfer, and all of us had a great time. The spa was a great experience as well for us 4.
There are several options for day-trips that can be arranged at the front desk.
