Family hotels and homes in Contadora

Travelled with a friend here for the weekend. The staff made us feel like we were right at home and we were so comfortable we ended up extending another 2 nights. We enjoyed the outdoor pool for hours and it was a bonus that there’s direct beach access to the most beautiful beach I’ve ever been to. They also have kayaks and stand up paddle boards and snorkels that are all complementary for your use. The other places we stayed we’ve always had to pay for those extras. Would definitely recommend and for sure I’ll be back!

I liked everything. The place was charming, the rooms were clean and comfortable, breakfast was lovely. Most of all, Nicola was exceptionally kind and helpful, assisting us to rent a golf cart and arrange for a snorkeling trip as well as telling us many things about the island. She went well above the usual level of customer service.

We loved our stay. The place is very clean , they pick you up from the ferry dock, which saves you the money of renting a golf cart. The place is very charming with the island life vibe. Staff is kind and friendly. All was amazing! The beach under the hotel gives you a feeling of a private beach although public. Very not crowded. Beach bar. Clean. Was absolutely perfect.

Excellent location, very comfy clean room and the staff was kind and helpful.

Nice place to stay, Gabrielle was a wonderful host, arranged Golf Cart Rental for us.

Fully equiped kichen. Very clean. tap water is salty and they provide a big bottle of water. Prompt reply from the host and helper. 3 mins away from the new ferry pier (Aug 2023). charge reasonable price for extended time.

Great location - 2,5h from Panama City. Quiet isolated island. Great beaches. Staff was very helpful. Good food. It is nice place to stay 2-3 nights to really rest.

Breakfast, rooms, AC, owner and staff are amazing. This was our 4th visit.

For a relaxing getaway with stunning views, El Remanso is the perfect choice. Our stay was magical, with breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and a serene atmosphere. (The photos do not do it enough justice). I visited to celebrate my birthday, and to my delight, the team prepared a special surprise for me! A heartfelt thank you to Hanik and Ehran, who were exceptional hosts. Their warmth and attentiveness made our experience unforgettable, especially with the upgrade to a spectacular room and great activity recommendations. The hotel is beautiful, located by what we believe is the most pristine beach on the island. Our spacious room was well-equipped, and waking up to the ocean view was a highlight. The shared kitchen is a nice touch for meal prep. I recommend bringing food for breakfasts and snacks. You might consider packing items to make sandwiches and purchasing the spectacular baguette from La Choza, which is just a short walk from the hotel. Their food is fantastic! That said, don’t miss La Choza, a delightful restaurant run by Jean-Baptiste and Eli, offering delicious local cuisine in a cozy, welcoming setting. I also recommend exploring the trail between the beach at Saboga Lodge and La Choza beach. The path, surrounded by rocks, nature, and the ocean, truly makes you feel like you’re in a scene from Star Wars. If you decide to walk to find the 500-year-old tree, be sure to bring mosquito repellent, as it can be quite helpful. Good luck finding it—we weren’t able to locate it ourselves! Without a doubt, El Remanso is a hidden gem. We’re already dreaming of our next visit to this slice of paradise!
