10/10 Excellent
"La habitación limpia y completa, tiene de todo, nevera, microondas, estufa, utensilio, vasos. La vista al mar es espectacular, un lugar bien relajante. Es bueno para parejas y familias pequeñas, tiene 2 piscinas y 2 jacuzzis."
San Carlos Beach Inn
8/10 Good
"The room was clean and beds were comfortable. It was a 15 minute walk to the beach and next to local corner stores and restaurants. The owner was nice and showed us around when we came in. It was also around a 20 minute walk from the bus stop so there's no need for a car to move around. Theres a rooftop bbq area with hammocks and table top games that anyone staying can use. There's friendly cats on the property so that's a plus too. The shower was a hassle to use, the shower head sprayed everywhere other than me and to use the hot water I had to keep my finger on a hose coming out of the heater. In the middle of the night another person staying came over banging at the door and swearing over tv noise not letting her sleep, even though the volume was at 10%, so noise travels easily between rooms."
The Golden Frog Inn
10/10 Excellent
"This is a beautiful property with clean, comfortable rooms and a very well-maintained pool. The entire property is beautifully kept and has a lovely, relaxing atmosphere. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and pleasant getaway."
Surfside Beachfront Suites by Playa Caracol Resorts
10/10 Excellent
"Everything was great except for the towels they provided, they were smelly and no matter how many times I washed them they were bad, other than that it was great and would go again with my own towels"

"Great stay"
San Carlos Surf Resort & Eco Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"What a wonderful place to find out what life on the Pacific coast of Panama is like and what it can be for you. Brooke and her staff are everything you would want in them. Friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating and supportive. Breakfast is included and is the only meal served daily. Definitely try El Parque restaurant in San Carlos. Delicious and inexpensive. Being a small lodge on the ocean makes it special. FYI: No TV, no fridge, no microwave in my room but an awesome ocean view, a comfortable bed and a large walk-in shower. Totally recommend this resort unless you are seeking the amenities of a corporate resort."
