Distrito Montijo Hotels

"My husband and I only stopped overnight. We were confused about their one star rating. Anyone who has traveled knows the difference between a 1 star and 5 star. This is of course not a 5 star place. But i would say a solid 3 star. The rooms were clean, air-conditioned, the pool was clean, the staff was friendly and kind and helpful. We had dinner at La Mandolina that was the best food we've had in panama to date. Was there road noise. Yes...to whoever complained about this in other reviews. The hotel sits directly on the PanAmerican highway....so ya know cars and trucks equal road noise. I would totally stay here again. "

"Loved my patio with private hammock surrounded by plants, the view from the restaurant & pool amazing."

"I spent a week at Surfasana Lodge. It is a unique property on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Surfasana Lodge is very peaceful surrounded by nature. Mauricio is a chill guy that can answer all your questions about Santa Catalina in general or surfing in particular. He is very interesting to talk with. I thoroughly enjoyed my week at Surfasana. The rooms are very clean and well appointed. If you come to Santa Catalina for surfing or diving, I highly recommend Surfasana Lodge for your accomodations. "

"Great place to stay for the night :) pretty setting, spacious clean rooms, yummy restaurant, friendly and helpful staff. Great value. Highly recommend."

"This property could use some love! We arrived to a grade 10 drive up a steep steep hill or option 2 - a steep climb up 120 stairs (not a misprint) with no sign indicating you were actually heading to reception. Once checked in we had to go down the 120 stairs to our car. A very kind receptionist gentleman drove down the hill to help us get our luggage up to our room. So only a 30 stair climb from this point! Needless to say you will get a workout. The room was nice. There was air conditioning which was necessary as it is the hot season here AND we were hot after the climb. We were able to get our car part way up the “driveway”. Most clients did not chance it! All this and we do enjoy our stay in Santa Catalina. We do recommend Panama Dive Center for scuba diving!"
