Riu Playa Blanca: Good for price

The hotel is not a 5 star hotel but it is a nice hotel. Very nice view, helpful people and good food at the buffet and the restaurants. Lots for young kids and adults to do not as much for teens, other than hanging on the beach. Hotel staff should become more versed on the activities to do outside of the hotel. New airport 10 min from hotel makes check out very easy.

Hard Rock Megapolis: Good hotel for singles---NOT for Family

Too loud music late at night. Good location and rooms were good. Language is a challenge, most staff do not speak English. Out of 7 days stay we had to call service to restore TV and telephone 5 times. On the 4th night when we were out, our kids room was gutted with water leaking from above. The all inclusive snack bar was abruptly resorted to paying for our afternoon meals without any notice.

Grand Decameron Panama: Very Good

Very Good Resort, excellent food and service! Good beach but unfortunately the red flag was up most of the time I was there. Service at all of the restaurants was super good. The show time was average but lots of fun.

Riu Playa Blanca: amazing resort

Top quality service bad amazing view. Would definitely recommend it. The pools were spacious the staff was helpful and honest. The bartenders were enthusiast and the night life was to die for. My favorite restaurant on the resort was the steakhouse.

Grand Decameron Panama: Wonderful Resort!

Royal DeCameron Beach Resort Panama is well worth the money! Food is always good, rooms are clean and the resort offers plenty to do. Already planning on going back again. Lots of attractions that one can avail themselves of.

Grand Decameron Panama: Great Resort

Enjoyed the 8 days at the resort. It is based on the pacific and has great weather and 8 different pools located around the complex plus very sandy beach.They offer nightly entertainment that is free - it is okay. 11 different restaurants - breakfast and lunch are buffet with a wide variety of different foods that are great. Some of the specialty restaurants are good; others okay. We played golf 4 times; nice golf course but hot. Staff are very pleasant.

Grand Decameron Panama: very satisfied

When we arrived after dark we were worried that we had arrived at rowdy young persons resort and were afraid that we had made a big mistake. In the morning when we woke up in our relatively stark but very clean room it was wonderful to look over the beautiful golf course and all the flora and fauna. We felt like it was a little bit like being in Africa so different from the Caribbean. The café makes great espresso and latte to start the day. Walking around the beautiful grounds was very relaxin [... read more]g.There are some very impressive trees that look like they are right out of Jurassic Park. Beautiful birds, long long beach with very unique sand formations at the south end. Glass of wine on the beach watching the sunset was a favorite. the food was quite good, especially the variety offered. Local fruits and vegetables that were delicious. Not a resort for a person with limited mobility though. The airconditioner in our room was perfect, we slept very well. Would definitely love to go again.

Grand Decameron Panama: Great Weather

Grounds are lovely, but the number of stairs you have to climb are tough, language barrier with staff was frustrating. When we arrived we were not directed to our room location, took some time to find our room.

Grand Decameron Panama: Disappointing

Could not get a drink at 2:00 am. Chicken nuggets and french fries are not food I expect at a resort. Tours offered were poorly organized; 50 people on a bus with a rest stop at a location with one wash room; that took over an hour. It is 3hours+ by bus from the airport in Panama City.

Grand Decameron Panama: Amazing place!

Staff were courteous, rooms were extremely clean, food was good, drinks were good. Beach was great, nightly entertainment was great. Tours were amazing. Will definitely return. Really enjoyed the Panama Canal tour and spending our last few days at the Hard Rock Cafe in Panama were amazing. Did a private tour in Panama which I would totally recommend people do rather than the hop on hop off tour.

Grand Decameron Panama: Second trip as good as first.

This was the second trip in 2 years ,and hoping to go back in 2015.Staff were very helpful ,food excellent ,accommodations excellent.Very well kept resort ,would recommend to friends and family,Only draw back was trip from airport to resort ,this should not be a problem any more since the new airport was opened in May.hoping to see you soon .Thank You .

Grand Decameron Panama: Great vacation!

My wife and I visited the resort in late May. Overall, my wife and I had a great stay. I'll try to summarize what we found at the resort. Pros: - Beautiful beach, never overly busy (no issues finding loungers etc). There was a bit of a current and the waves could get a bit larger at times, but nothing compared to other resorts we've been to. It was quite possible to swim in the ocean. - Peddlers will pass by on the beach but never harassed us - Beautiful pools, well maintained. Lifeguards on du [... read more]ty, plenty of loungers, and the adult only pool has a swim up bar. - Lots of restaurants and bars to choose from - Excellent service at the bars with a great frozen drink selection and excellent coffee at the bar by lobby 1 - Decent shows for night time entertainment (well choreographed performances most nights) - Beachfront room was close to everything - definitely recommend this if you want to avoid the walk up/down the hill and to be only a few minutes from restaurants/bars/entertainment - A la carte restaurants were generally excellent. Seafood was fantastic (especially calamari) but beef tended to be tough - Room was kept very clean by housekeeping Cons: - Language barrier. The resort is geared mostly towards local tourists (ie. Panama, Columbia). Many of the staff didn't speak any English. We were fine getting by with the Spanish we knew, but for anyone that doesn't speak any Spanish, the language barrier could cause issues. - Buffet wasn't the best. It wasn't terrible and we could always find something to eat, but there often wasn't a lot of selection and again it was geared towards the locals. - Trip to the resort is a bit long. It's roughly a 2 hour bus ride and although they try to give you a tour as you go, it gets a little long by the end. The airport right by the resort should be opening soon though so that will take care of this issue. - Entertainment was decent, but it's setup in an amphitheater style (tiers of concrete) for sitting so it takes its toll on you after sitting there for the duration of the show! - Fridge cost extra in the rooms if you wanted one, and if was more if you wanted it stocked with things (we've been to other resorts in the Caribbean that will at least provide you with pop/cold water in the rooms). There were however bottles of water available in the room still Overall, it was a great experience and we'd recommend it for sure. The price was similar to that of the average Cuban resort, but the food and quality was much better than what we've experienced in Cuba.

Grand Decameron Panama: less than before

The room were not that clean. But the public areas were great. We appreciated the restaurant, the food as well as the staff. It was our 3rd time there and it was not the best of it. Some areas were closed for clean in the week but we were there !!!

Grand Decameron Panama: Great weather for winter time

The grounds and hotel were well kept. The pools and beach were amazing. I love the fact that in January the heat was a consistent plus 30. Much warmer than Cuba at that time of year. I enjoyed the hotel and would recommend it but a few things to note: The food was ok but not great. The airport is a long distance from the resort so be prepared for a long ride. The staff catered to Spanish speaking guests so I recommend you know a little Spanish or you will be served last. Staff are not as friendl [... read more]y as I have experienced in other resorts.

Grand Decameron Panama: Great get away!

We had a great time at the Decameron Golf and Beach resort. We played golf everyday but one. And went to the beach every day too. The transportation from the villas to the restaurants and beach was very efficient, and always available. The food was very good and well thought out. All the employees at the resort were very genuine interesting honest nice people. We met many lovely people there and will remember the vacation we had there for a long time to come. Thank you Royal Decameron

Grand Decameron Panama: Awesome resort!

Not one bad thing to say about this resort...Best trip I've had...Amazing organization from noli tours for activities and orientation...Beautiful resort, well maintained...Food was great...Nice place for golfers

Grand Decameron Panama: Royal Decameron Beach Resort

Compared to other resorts visited the Royal Decameron Resort is pretty much a 3 star. The resort is huge and on a hill so may not be suitable for folks who have mobility issues. There is a van service but I found it unreliable so ended up walking a lot. The rooms and overall the resort was clean and well maintained. There are several pools and snack locations. I was not impressed with the buffet and the a la carte restaurants were just OK. The staff need some training in public relations. The en [... read more]tertainment was typical of a lower end resort. The resort staff that was to keep you busy pretty much did not run activities on time. After all the negatives - this resort was fine for the cost. The beach is great as are the views from your room.

Grand Decameron Panama: Amazing Staff

Your staff were aware of our mobile difficulties and whenever they saw us they rushed to help, especially in the dining rooms. The suites were very clean and handy to everything, and the entertainment and service unparalleled..we received good value for our money. We love Panama

Grand Decameron Panama: Great place for all!

A great resort with lots for all ages. Friendly staff and lots to see and do. The weather is perfect and the resort is clean and beautiful. The golf course is nice and the beach is long, you can walk for miles.

Grand Decameron Panama: Amazing resort
