Nice size rooms with parking in front of room and nice beach front private patio at rear of room. The room was clean except coffee pot had not been cleaned when we arrived. It was extremely quiet and pretty much empty. I suspect that was because of arriving right after Easter. The pools looked in need of a good clean... More

This was one of my favorite places in Panama. The rooms aren't that great, they have that NJ beach hotel feel. The hotel itself is wonderful. Great pool, a stones throw to the beach, which you can see from the patio outside your door. We were the only people on the beach.The hotel has a great restaurant and the food... More

I stayed there three nights and it was an oasis just South of David and right on the Pacific. The hospitality was great and the place was nice and reasonably priced. We traveled all over the country and that was our favorite place. I'd just assume fly into David and go straight to the resort and stay there on my... More

We spent one night at Olas Beach Resort. The staff was very friendly and nice. The pools and beach were great. The resort was very clean and our room was on the first level with a door that went out to a small patio. The decor was a bit dated, but after all, who goes to the beach to spend... More

Stayed two nights for some beach time after five nights in Boquete. This was a nice place however it is isolated and the restaurant on site is essentially the only game in town. The ground floor room was good, two queen beds with private patio with a table and a couple of chairs that faced the beach. The hotel itself... More

Last 4th of July weekend we stayed at Las Olas, we had miles of Pacific beach literally to ourselves. The room and view was just perfect. The food and staff compliment the resort. This place is isolated and would be excellent for Honeymooners, Conventions or an extended family stay. The owners are on property and so friendly and welcoming and... More

Las Olas means The Waves. You know how you always go to a hotel that is on the beach and then get disappointed because you don't get a room that has an ocean view? Well that won't happen at Las Olas! Every room has an ocean view whether you are upstairs or down. Because the black sand (yes black sand)... More

As residents of Alto Boquete, sometimes we need a little heat and a chance to watch and listen to the wonderful Pacific ocean waves crashing on the beach. Las Olas is a very nice hotel with great staff. We stayed there during the off season and besides the one other family staying there, we literally had the entire resort to... More
