I can highly recommend Casa Manila if you are looking for great Hostel in Santa Catalina. So let me start of with the location. You are located right at the ocean and have stunning view over it. You are perhaps only 20 meters away from the pacific and can take a dip whenever your heart desires. It’s truly the dream location for a hostel. The owners are even more amazing. Pia and Kike are always looking out for you if you are having a great time and are so friendly and polite doing so. The kitchen has some great equipment, especially a strong stove. The rooms are amazing and there is nothing to complain about. All in all I am very happy with my choice, so much so that I extended my stay multiple times

We had a wonderful stay at Rancho Estero with our family. Even though by European standards, facilities are not perfect, and there would be place for some minor reparations, especially in the bathroom and shared kitchen, the authentic setting, the warm hosting from Eli, and the proximity of the beach made our stay at Rancho Estero one of the best experiences throughout our Panama trip. But above all, are the surfing lessons with Zigor. Big thank you! We really loved every minute spent on the board (and near, and beaneath it :)), and feel we have advanced a lot in surfing. The kids still say that surfing with you was by far their best experience in Panama. Hope to come back some time.

We loved our stay at Villa Coco, it was very clean and modern. Our room had a wonderful view through to the sea. The restaurant is amazing, with changes to the menu each day and the food was delicious.

Best hotel we went to Panama. Perfect location, beautiful pool, comfy bed and there was a basket of fruits in the house. The host was very friendly. I really recommend it, especially for surfers, it's 10 minutes walk from the spot La Punta

United Kingdom

Incredible location. Throwing back the curtains each morning, the surfers (often including Ricardo - the owner) were out in the waves off the point. What a view for breakfast! Bungalow was beautiful and well looked after. Ricardo and his wife could not have been nicer or more helpful- they made our stay truly memorable (including the fabulous margaritas!), and left us more knowledgeable about Panama and with many stories to tell.

Although the location only opened recently, staff tried to fix everything as good as possible. Food was decent, pool and bathrooms where clean. Next to some small mistakes due to recent opening, staff was eager to help you with information, bookings and were really nice! Really worth exploring this place. Location is perfect, close to town and restaurants

Elli, the manager, was amazing. She did everything she could to make us feel home. The view was fantastic, the scenery was just wow! The location was a 15 min walk from the center, which was fine. Nearby was a nice bar/restaurant for a drink.
