Ranchos De Chalia

We are a military family from San Diego California that wanted to enjoy a peaceful vacation in Colon with our local family. It was all that and much more. The property was beautiful, and well kept. The service was excellent. The rooms were clean. The owner was very friendly as well as the staff. I have nothing but good things to say about the place. I will refer all my friends and can’t wait to get some time off to go out there again. From The Bovell Family

Amazing! This was my family’s first trip to Panama. We live in the US. This stretch of the country is perfect. Spent a few of the first days of our trip here before heading south. Boats out to Isla Mamey or Isla Grande for a few of hours of swimming or chilling are easy to take from close by. Small towns along the coast are close for store with snacks and drinks. There is minimal shopping in this remote area but that’s not why you come here!

We stayed in a double set up, separate rooms and bathrooms. Super comfy beds and pillows!!

Carlos is a wonderful and attentive host! He took care of us while we were here, sent us tour guide options, even went above and beyond checking on our late luggage to ensure it came. His English is fantastic which is such a help to us given our poor, but trying!!! :), Spanish.

They cook breakfast (included), lunch and dinner and provide pool side snacks and drinks (extra but the charges were so reasonable it felt like it was included!) The kitchen staff is super nice and the food hits the spot. Simple menu but when your kids clean their plate every meal you know they are doing it right! We loved the hamburgers and fries.

The town of Portobello is about 25 minutes away and there were ruins along the road that we stopped at for a great surprise and treat. I highly recommend this place.

We had dinner across the street down the hill at the bay. A quaint seaside restaurant with a limited but just perfect menu for fresh fish. It’s run by a guy from Holland with a great sense of humor and again great service.

Full disclosure: no swimming beaches close by. You pretty much have to take a boat to one of the islands but it’s worth the $40 round trip fare and fun to see the coasts from the water.

Also, lots of steps so if someone in your group has trouble getting around just ask for a lower level room. We needed the exercise, stayed high but it was worth the views!!

A pretty amazing place to stay, so peaceful & surrounded by wildlife.

From reception to the rooms you will feel at home.
If you want to get out for long weekend or holiday, this is where you will stay to go and explore the area.

Excellent price vs quality stay! What a pool and view 😉

Super friendly staff and amazing food!

Fantastic stay and wonderful hosts

Es muy bien hotel. Es un lugar agradable y divertido. Las habitaciones muy buenas pero la cortina no funciona. El internet un poco lento pero funciona para cosas básicas. Ubicación cerca del puerto para ir a algunas islas. Muy buen servicio y muy atentos.

Un hotel muy tranquilo, familiar , la cocina es deliciosa, no es variada , pero muy bien preparados sus platos y la vista !!!! Está cerca del pueblo donde puedes tomar el paseo a isla mamey el cual no te puedes perder . Tienes que reservar con tiempo más habitaciones.

Me encantó,super tranquilo, comida deliciosa y servicio muy agradable. Todo lo mantienen limpio y ordenado.

Lugar muy bonito y acogedor para pasar en pareja o con tu familia

Nous avons passé un très beau séjour dans cet hôtel. Les chambres sont climatisées, spacieuses, et la matelas sont super confortables (nous avions une chambre double et une chambre familiale). La piscine est très grande et la vue est superbe! Le personnel est très gentil!

Très belle expérience dans cet hôtel. Chambre climatisée et spacieuse, pergola très agréable et très grande piscine. Les prix du restaurant sont abordables . La vue est magique.

Excelente lugar para el descanso y el relax muy cerca del muelle donde se toman las lanchas hacia las islas. Carlos nuestro anfitrión siempre estuvo allí pendiente de todas nuestras necesidades. Buenos sabores en su cocina bajo las manos de Ana... volveremos.

Maravilloso hotel VIP con espectacular vista paradisíaca, atendido por sus dueños. Comida excelente, limpio, maravillosa piscina rodeado de bosques y palmeras con vista al océano.
Volveré sin dudarlo.

Sinceramente, uno de los mejores lugares que he visitado en mi vida.
Un vista hermosa, el despertar con sonidos de pajaritos, todos super limpio, el servicio super pendiente. 10/10

Hermoso y exclusivo hotel en el Caribe Panameño, con una impresionante vista al mar, entre bosque y canto de aves, se respira aire limpio para oxigenar y descansar.

Excelente lugar ubicado entre el mar y montaña, hermosa vista, lo que más valoro cuando salgo de casa la cama divina y despertar con el ruido de los monos.

Muy buen lugar para descansar

Preciosas vista, buen ambiente, deliciosa comida. Lo mejor es el trato de todo el personal. Instalaciones muy bonitas y cómodas
