This was our first hotel in Panama, and our first trip to Panama as well. After we saw a lot of overpriced hotels in Costa Rica, we were surprised about the standard here. The Bambito is up in the mountains, and you definitely need a car to reach it or get around. The rooms are spacious and clean. We had... More

This was my wife’s and my second trip to Volcan and our first stay at the Bambito Resort. We were there for three nights (Tuesday to Friday). On our first trip we had driven by and even stopped at the hotel to look around so when a special offer came up we jumped on it. We always try to stay... More

The reviews that discredit this hotel are not giving the true picture. I visited Chiriqui from the US and stayed at this hotel on March 13, 2012. The room was in excellent condition. The beds were comfortable with adequate pillows. The bathroom was very clean and modern. The room had hard wood floors and 32 inch flat screen TV with... More

I stayed one night here January 13, 2012. The Hotel itself is impressive; with spectacular views; and well kept grounds. The staff was excellent; carrying our luggage to the room, which was immaculate. Woke up at 3:00am and called room service for coffee. The restaurant was not open yet.......but yes!!!!!!they would bring me coffee immediately. This is what European 5... More

Stayed in Bambito resort one night with family. We had three rooms and they were all situated together but still varied a lot in standard. The hotel has a great location and from the outside looks really nice. On the inside though it is as if the place has been stuck in time for some 30 years. I cannot believe... More

Stayed here for a few days during a business trip. There didn't seem to be too many options in Cerro Punta. During our stay at times we seemed to be the only ones at the hotel (with the exception of the Mother's Day luncheon....which was packed!) The staff was very helpful and friendly. The bus to Cerro Punta/Volcan pass by... More

This hotel is awesome. The price was $99 a night and it looked as if you where staying in the swiss alps. The hotel is situated outside Volcan and is surrounded by mountains. The hotel grounds had a huge pond in the front, amazing flowered gardens and a bamboo forest leads you to the separate tennis court, pool and play... More

Merritt Island, FL We visited friends who lived in Panama. They made all arrangements and we drove up from Panama City. The change of scenery varied from tropical, to arid plains, then lush forest. As we departed David and started our climb in altitude to Bambito, the vegetation became more and more lush, calla lilies growing wild in roadside ditches,... More

Stopped at this hotel to get a room for the night after hiking all day on Quetzal Trail. Got a room right away, and got a rate that was much cheaper than their advertised rate. Whoot! Our room was super nice, with a large bed (which has been lacking at other hotels in this country, LOL). Really nice balcony that... More

nice place, many on-site facilities (see hotel info), that is good because there isn't much going on in the area. great trout baked a variety of ways in the restaurant. we were there off season so there weren't too many other people there and the off season rates are good. Rooms were ok, staff helpful and friendly. More
