Top Hotels Near Santa Clara Beach in Rio Hato from AU$63

"Horrible customer service, tried calling to cancel as our flights to Panama were cancelled and they had no number to call, the number given was a house number. Expedia tried calling and no answer in the end we lost out on our money, we lost out on the hotel. "

"Receptionist was very serious, employees should look happy as they are enjoying their job."

"The property is clean, the beach is beautiful, pools are nice and food was good. Had an oceanfront view which was perfect. The things that lacked for us was fridge refills every two days, if you called in between then never return unless you call. Room cleaning was mediocre if they showed up each day, never left extra toilet paper so if you run out you have to call for more. gym is small and only one treadmill and elliptical working but does the trick with weights and cable stack machines but is also quite warm and no windows shades to keep sun out. They still using towel cards and run out of towels occasionally. There is also no room service which doesn’t matter to us, always food available. Buffet is a seat yourself but the drink service was quick and the staff are always on the move and great to deal with. Sports and is 24 hours with snacks, drinks and the best coffee on the property. Checkout was odd for us, had to wait for them to check the room before we could check out. Didn’t take long (10 minutes at most) but still not something we have dealt with elsewhere. This is a 4star for us and we did have a great vacation overall. "

"Good place but the room was a little bit dirty. The staff were very friendly and helpful. "

"None of the photos of our room matched the ones in the add. It is not a hotel nor associated with Playa Blanca Resort. This should be something on AirBnB. Overall the Playa Blanca property was very interesting but it was a little confusing as to what possible amenities were accessible or how to access them in general. In the end we just enjoyed the grounds and the property. Overall, we were glad to have stayed at the property despite everything. "

"The beach is a short walk away, and there are restaurants nearby. We didn't have an opportunity to use the kitchen, but it was well equipt with a spacious fridge labelled for each room. The breakfast was simple but good."

"John was great! Wish that there was air conditioning in the living areas, as while we were there between big winds and workmen spraying the building, it was a challenge to have windows open. We found out quite by accident that there were meal options nearby; a map with what is available would be appreciated. What we did find in time had great meal options. Overall, John’s place is quiet, has plenty of space, working laundry, inviting balcony with table and chairs, all within a short walk of the beach. "

" Beautiful grounds, flowers , trees and palms. The casita was perfect, clean and cosy. Loved loved loved the breakfasts! "

"I had to move the microwave "
