My wife and I have been here a few times in the past. This time we came with our 9 children. At first there was a little confusion with the booking and they wanted to place us in several different rooms, but when I explained our children were all young and we would not be separated from them, Gilma arranged...

So glad we found this place of peace to break our journey. We stayed 3 nights and enjoyed the quiet and nature surrounding the hotel/hostal/B&B. The staff is extraordinary in service. We booked the airport pick-up service and was pleased to be met as soon as we exited baggage claim. We walked up to the top of the hill to... More

The high rating of this hotel on Trip Advisor is well-deserved. It is very clean, and the staff are friendly and efficient. The rooms are simple but comfortable, with both air conditioning and ceiling fans. It is enough removed from the hustle and bustle to be peaceful and relaxing, yet near enough that a taxi ride to/from the city doesn't... More

I stayed for two nights at La Estancia. It's situated in a tree lined well kept area about about 10 min. drive from Albrook airport, about 20 min. from The Canal, and 15-20 min. (depending on traffic) from downtown; so I found it a convenient and quiet place to stay for my needs. It's a good idea to take their... More

After my arrival I was a bit dissapointed because of the location but just the other day I absolutely changed my mind and was more than happy about my joice to stay in this place. Wherever you look you see only trees, the only noise comes from the birds and so it is a great place to escape the modern... More

We were hot and road weary after a crowded bus ride down from El Valle de Anton in which my daughter was feeling nauseous. We arrived long after dark, and the first thing we saw as we approached the door was a guest paying a delivery man for Chinese carryout. This was a most welcome sight, as we were too... More

Very clean rooms although they are small they have space for you to organize your personal things. Great breakfast with very friendly service and bird watching while you enjoy your breakfast. Beautiful hill to walk. We will com back again.
