Places to Stay
Before escaping to the Pacific Rivera, you certainly need to find a place to stay. And, since this is a rather popular destination, we strongly advise you to book your stay in advance. Talk to a travel agent and have an organized trip, or opt for Booking.com, where you can be your own trip organizer.
Moreover, be sure to know what you want to do in Panama before you book your accommodation. It is simple – by knowing what you want to do, you will know where you want to stay! For instance, if you want to sunbathe and enjoy the water, look for villas with waterfront views and beach access. If you want to explore Panama’s beautiful national parks where you can hike and get to experience the wildlife, plant life, and some of the most mesmerizing views, choose an accommodation far from the city center. And, if you want to enjoy the bustling city vibe while also learning about the history of Panama and its people, choose an apartment downtown.
However, if you don’t want to be your own trip organizer, if all you want to do in Panama is relax and not worry about a thing, consider booking a stay in one of the many resorts Panama has to offer. For instance, you cannot go wrong if you choose:
- Coronado Resort
- Bijao Resort
- Buenaventura Resort
- Decameron Resort

These places offer beautiful accommodation, tasty food, an d plenty of activities to keep you entertained.
Or, Places to Buy
We have to warn you about something, though! Once you visit this amazing Pacific Rivera, you will instantly fall in love with it. Ultimately, that love will either force you to vacation in Panama rentals for the rest of your life or simply buy yourself a Panama property. You already know what to do for the first option. So, let us give you some tips for the second one.
Namely, if you decide to buy a home here, be sure to do thorough research on Panama real estate. Let us warn you again – buying a property here will not be easy! You will have to deal with a lot of paperwork, attend tons of open-house events, and have countless sleepless nights because you will not be sure what to do, which property to buy. We strongly advise you to hire a reliable, local real estate agent to avoid all of this. This person (or a team) is the only one that can help you find the home of your dreams, that is, a home that suits your budget and all of your needs.
But, don’t relax once you find that home – you still need to move there! Organizing an international move can be very time- and energy-consuming. Moreover, it will also be hard on your wallet, provided you will need to hire a moving company, moving insurance costs, etc. So, in order to escape to the Pacific Rivera, you must be aware of the expenses and prepared for everything.
Places to Visit
And, now, let us move to the part you have been waiting for. What are the best places to visit in the Pacific Riviera? Panama is a big country, and as such, it has many places to visit – beaches, forests, cities, countryside, etc. It is also important to note that the best places to visit in Panama will depend on what you like. For instance, if you like beaches, you should explore one of many of Panama’s islands – some of them look at the Pacific Ocean, and others face the Caribbean Sea. But all of them have beautiful beaches with white sand and crystal-clear water. Thus, it is needless to say that you can’t go wrong when choosing a beach in Panama.
When you decide to take a break from all the sun, you can also visit the national parks of Panama. There, you can enjoy nature, breathe in the fresh air, and experience this country’s amazing flora and fauna. Or, you can start exploring Panama’s land and visit Bocas Del Toro and see the rainforest.
Are you a part of the younger crowd? Do you want to experience some of the most amazing nightlife, eat at 5-star restaurants, and shop till you drop? Then just pick any bigger city close to you and go to its downtown area. The vibrant of the city centers and the friendliness of the people will amaze you. This is just one more reason to escape to the Pacific Rivera if you ask us.
