Las Olas Beach Resort - David

This hotel is located in a remote agricultural area of Panama. The beach is beautiful and that is the main attraction. The staff was friendly but needs some training. Also, the room was clean but needs to be updated. The television was old and we were given a remote control that did not work. Also the signal for the cable/satellite connection was not […] consistent. This was not such a big deal since we did not spend that much time in the room but I thought it should be noted. Read more

We enjoyed a one night stay at the hotel. It is rather far out from town but great for a restful time. Checkout time is midday but you can use the facilities until 6:00pm.

The rooms were very nice, the beach and the area extremely hot & humid. Much more than any of the carribiean islands we frequent.The one front desk person (Vinney) set us up with cab to & from town & tours, but were extremely over charged. Avoid using him if possible. Beautiful black sand beach but the sand was extremely hot untill you get to the water.Always […] has a heavy surf, not too good for swimming or wading above your hips. Read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Las Olas Beach Resort! The staff went out of their way to make us comfortable and make ALL accomodations for us! The food in the restaurant is excellent and the setting beyond beautiful! The pools were beautifully laid out and warm! There is a plethora of things to do at the resort for both adults and children. You […] will not be disappointed if you give them a chance. Like I said, the staff bent over backwards for us! Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel has seen better days. The pool furniture was in poor repair, and the landscaping needed attention. Just a little investment in time and materials would pay big dividends. The beach had trash in the sand, someone needs to rake it occassionally. However, the biggest problem was the lack of attention by the housekeeping staff. The bathroom walls, […] light switches, and shower were dirty. Inexcusable. Also. the bathroom light was so dim, a woman would not be able to do makeup. The doors had no deadbolt, so anyone with a key can gain access, at any time. Read more

It's a shame that such a nice hotel, have a bad maintenance. The savannas of Hotel beds not changed daily. The beds have fleas. The bathrooms are very dirty. The room smells bad. The swimming pools are neglected. The food is very expensive and not very good. Therefore, no comfort in the room. The beach is dangerous.

Pros : The resort is very beautiful and well maintained. The restaurant offers an excellent variety of choices in food and wine. Cons : It is a little on the expensive side, the rooms are not as large as I had hoped, and it is very difficult to find from David. Once you find the correct road, there are signs to guide you, but any sort of sign on the […] highway would make a huge difference. Read more

We stayed a few years ago for half the price. Rooms were a bit more run down this time and paying double didn't seem right. Location on the beach and pools were still great.

Located aprox. 30 minutes outside of David , Panama on the Pacific coast, this resort is very isolated. This is a great place to go to if you want a quite , secluded resort , especially when we were there during the rainy / off season in July 2011. We stayed 10 nights , which was a bit long, but we wanted to explore the areas around David, Boquete, […] Volcan, in search of a rent house to serve as a home base for our future travels in Central America. The cab ride into David takes 30 minutes each way at a cost of ~ $ 25 USD each way. Have the desk call you a cab. There is only 1 restaurant located on the property, which serves just adequate fare. The staff was friendly and seemed eager to please upon request. There are buses that run from the front gate twice in the AM and at least once in the evening for ~ $ 3 USD per / person / per 3 hour ( THEY MAKE FREQUENT STOPS ) trip.into David, where you can catch a bus to Boquete, Volcan , etc.. BUT , you will need to speak some Spanish, or know key words and phrases. The beach at Las Olas is somewhat DANGEROUS due to the large waves coming in and the RIP TIDE , but we did see allot of the locals, who come out on the weekend, in the water about 50 feet out and some were even 100 yards out surfing. The sand is a course black sand allot like blasting sand , that can get quite hot. We think there are sand fleas on the beach as we noticed many small red bite marks from our knees down, not with welts like a mosquito bites , and we seemed to get more spots every time we went down to the beach for our walks. Nice place for a short visit , especially if you want seclusion. Read more

Calm, not that much to do, the sea has violent waves making swimming in the ocean an adventure. The restaurant is very uneven, some meals were delicious, some meals plain disasters. When we got crude fish fingers and had them changed, we were charged for also the crude uneatable. Slow service and everything closes at 10 pm. After that, there is nothing […] to do except stay in your room. Read more

Nice place. Not 5 stars as stated, but quite good for the price. The staff is very helpful, good food, good amenities. We had 3 enjoyable days on the beach. Apart from the beach there is not much to do.

The Las Olas Hotel is a simple beach motel. You only have 3 spanish TV channel and a noisy air condition in your room. The only restaurant there looks good, the staff is friendly but the food is lousy. Best thing is to keep your cuisine order simple: rice or fish. No Burger, no french fries, no gravy. Give the cook no chance to be creative. The Hotel […] location is right at the beach. And the beach is to recommend. It is a nice place to spend a weekend if you not expect too much. Read more

Was told it was in David when actually it is a $30 taxii ride each way to get there or an old American school bus. No happy.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It was very hard to find the resort due to lack of signage. We turned back at one point as we thought we must have taken a wrong turn but a local told us we were on the right track. After having a shower, I walked around our room before getting dressed. When I went to put my sandals on, my feet were dirty. This more than anything put me off. The service […] was great, your staff is wonderful and helpful and the food was especially good. The location is beautiful. Read more

Peaceful and calm hotel with nice pools an beautiful views on the ocean. Outside of the hotel there is not much to find and it is quite expensive to get there with a taxi.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

La ubicación del hotel es mejor que lo se espera, pero de ahí en adelante todo fue un caos. Llegar a la habitación standar y que la llave no abra sino es empujada o alzada la puerta, que el inodoro gotee y que el baño no sea lo que se espera, que además no te den llave para la puerta que da a la playa, que el teléfono no funcione para realizar el reporte […] a recepción, que no haya refrigerador, que el televisor de la habitación sea de los de hace 20 años siendo Panamá uno de los países con excelente tecnología y precios cómodos para mantener los electrodomésticos en óptimas condiciones, y que además tenga que esperar una hora para que te sirvan los refrescos en tu almuerzo, la cosa fue un caos. Si no es por los jóvenes de recepción, del bar y una joven del servicio de habitación hubiese salido corriendo la primera noche. Al ser el único hotel por la zona se espera el servicio de WIFI en las habitaciones, pero existe cobertura solo en cierta área del hotel, en fin se recomeinda paciencia. Le falta mantenimiento y actualizar los activos de las habitaciones. Read more

El hotel es estupendo para descansar y pasarse el día todo disfrutando de sus instalaciones. El restaurante es bueno, aunque un poco caro.

Het hotel zelf is mooi gelegen, alle kamers hebben uitzicht op het strand, maar de kamers zelf zijn ouderwets en worden niet goed onderhouden. Ook de openbare ruimtes zijn verouderd. De eerste dag dat we er waren was er alleen buffet voor lunch en diner, dit was slecht. De tweede dag a la carte gegeten en dit was beter. De bediening is traag en meestal […] afwezig. Het strand is prachtig, het is er niet druk en geen hoogbouw.Er zijn nog twee kleine restaurantjes en verder is er niets. Als je een of twee dagen rustig aan het strand wil zitten met een boek is het prima. Read more

goed hotel, lekker rustig aan het strand. Goed lang strand voor rustige liggen of strandwandelingen. Voor degenen die meer drukte zoeken, kan het een beetje te ver van David afliggen, zo'n 25 km.

Right next to the beach but 20 - 30 min ride from David.
