Grounds were beautiful! No complaints, just my thoughts...food was good but lacked selection and variety. Staff were helpful however the bartenders did not seem as upbeat and friendly as other resorts we have visited. Entertainment in the evening was lacking, not enough places with music and/or dancing until 11pm. Overall the property was very nice, just needs updating. I am guessing COVID hit this resort hard.

Through your app we booked at the Dreams Playa Bonita hotel in Panama, Panama, from December 30 to January 3, we were guided by the fact that your app says it is a 4-star hotel, which would qualify it as a 2-star hotel. Below I detail the drawbacks: The room needs maintenance, curtains are very dirty and stained. The metal door to the entrance is completely destroyed. The safe does not work, the shower is dirty, the counter is totally unclean, the ceiling has insect blood stains. The telephone has no service. 2. The supposed French restaurant Bordeaux had no availability. They told us that reservations were not accepted. When we went, they told us that they already had 30 people on the waiting list and without standing in line, and it looked empty. The food is not fresh at all. They say that the beach is spectacular. It is really very rocky. We had to leave the hotel on the 2nd due to the atmosphere and rotten smell of the room. The sheets and towels were too old. I am attaching photos.

Pros: The staff is very nice. The massage was good but overpriced. Cons: I have stayed at many resorts. This was by far the absolute worse. Most resorts provide entertainment. They had bingo, a movie and Monday night football. There were absolutely no shows. They encourage you to use the app for Hyatt, but little to no entertainment display on the app. The food had limited options and absolutely no flavor. The market cafe was tolerable for breakfast. This is the only all inclusive resort where we went off the property to go eat. The resturants say no reservations, only to find out they put your name on a list. Excuse me, that is a reservation. They have a seafood restaurant with very little seafood. The main bar in the lobby had a limited selection of cheap alcohol. This is the bar that everyone passes. Not to mention, there was only one bartender. Most of the time, they didn't have anything to make the drinks they listed as options. Plan to wait for a drink of any kind. This resort is tatered and dingy. The sheets, towels and washcloth are thin and stained. They are ready to be used to wash the car. The curtains have holes and the bathroom in 128 has mold around the shower.. The couch in 128 came with a lot of stains. Room 140 air does not cool the room. Do not waste your money.

The property was in very good condition given its age. I like the proximity to park land and the opportunity to see animals not normally available. Food was very good and the breakfast buffet convenient. I enjoyed the Club with a separate pool area and bar area.

It is beautiful hotel, but not well maintained and is falling apart with cracks on the property grounds posing fall safety for customers. Food quality at the buffets were very bad and not many selections . Not very clean either . The beach area was full of trash . I got sick after just drinking some ice with my water. They would only offer bottled water to their club members. I could not get emergency help while I was completely dehydrated from the foodborne sickness. Staff not very responsive and emergency line would not answer calls. I finally had to call the US number of Hyatt to call the hotel and receive help. Very bad service. I would not recommend this hotel at all.

When requesting something, like a pen and paper, towels, or a light bulb change...it's best to use the app. I figured it out by my last few days that the response is faster than telling someone in person.

We had a great stay! Excellent view of the ships waiting to go into the canal and a great adults only pool section- watch out for sand fleas but bug spray solved that fast. We did see a sloth and her baby in her natural habitat next to the hotel thanks to a hotel employee! We had a great time!

We loved our visit. The resort setting is more beautiful than we expected. Amazing views from pool and grass lining the beach and the beach of the surrounding area and distant ships lining up to transit the Panama Canal. The condition of the property met our expectations which is to say we expected AC running overtime to keep up with humid conditions and nice but not immaculate condition/facilities. Mosquitoes and no see ums live in and around rain forests; not noticeable on the property during the day, but wouldn’t eat outside at dusk/night and wish the resort used mosquito netting for the buffet restaurant (for some unknown reason it is essentially open air). Loved the rain forest hike. Uber is great in the Panama City area. The staff are great. Love the coffee cafe & breakfast (fresh mango and papaya every day). Wish the dinner restaurants had more variety. Loved seeing sloths along the perimeter of the resort!

The food was good but selection limited. Based on our all inclusive you had a variety to choose from. The rooms are a bit outdated but was kept clean. A bit disappointed that my family had to check out by 12;00om but was unable to eat. Very unfortunate because they had a late flight and the facility requested them to pay to eat. Very disturbing it was the interest of the facility and not the guest. How much would a plate of good take away from this facility. I do not believe I would return.. maybe try somewhere else. Not al staff was friendly and extremely difficult communicating if you do not speak the language.
