What a pleasant surprise. We were SO impressed. This GEM has been recently upgraded and remodeled. PLUS: under new management! Let me start by saying that I had been hesitant to return after my last trip 2 years ago. What first impacts you as you enter the property are the incredibly expansive grounds. Green everywhere. This is a third-generation family... More

I called Crater Valley two days ago to book two rooms. They said they would get back to me "pronto" with a confirmation. It's two days later and I've heard nothing. I've just called again and they said the same exact thing. Bottom line, this is a sleepy, indifferent place with no concept of customer service. Zero stars.

I enjoyed my stay here so much that I started a Facebook page for them. Please visit Crater Lake Panama on Facebook and check out Malice the web series on YouTube! The only improvements I would recommend is having a stronger internet signal and upgrading the TV sets. Great value for about 90$ per night. Quiet, scenic, enchanting, and also... More

I have stayed at this hotel for several years. I keep coming back and highly recommend this hotel because the friendly atmosphere not only of the staff but also of the surroundings. Situated on a vast secluded piece of land,with beautiful gardens, the hotel offers on site therapeutic massages, heated pool and jacuzzi. The price includes continental breakfast on the... More

My wife and I stayed here for one night in their "suite" for $150 a night and it was terrible. The bed was awful and the room was big but there was no furniture and the A/C barely worked. We only saw one staff member the whole time we were there (and she did not seem happy she was here... More

First impression was great, beautiful driveway. The pool area is also very beautiful with a large pool. Okay that is where the great review stops. When we checked in there was only one girl working who did not know any english. We had to wait a long time to find her, looking around and had to yell for service before... More

Although we understood that check in was not until 4 p.m. we did arrive about midday and were immediarely checked in by a young lady to our room, India Dormida. The room was rather dark and the uneven stone flooring was quite hard on the feet,especially if you were... More

We were there 3 nights ago and were amazed. All of the good things in the other reviews are true and I would stay here again in a second. Any questions please ask. Roberto and his staff were very nice.

This time stayed at the Pilón because the rest of my preferred rooms Cariguana, Gaital, Manigordo, Coatimundi were all occupied or in renovation. The room is a bit small but nice as my last stay more than 2 years ago. Reception: No change as seen last time. But this time we arrived to the hotel under a copious rain and... More
