Only a year and a half old, the Westin Playa Bonita hotel awaits its guests in a wonderful ambiance just 20 minutes outside of Panama City. So if you haven’t been to the fascinating Republic of Panama recently, then you should try this new hotel next time you go there. This plush resort is the first Westin to open in the country.
Its setting is excellent: it has the Punta Bruja Nature Reserve on one side, and the wonderful Playa Bonita on the other. We are talking about a $100 million hotel on the beach with 611 plush rooms and the biggest meeting space in the whole of Central America, measuring 62,000 square feet.

With six fine restaurants, the resort promises a truly varied menu that will keep global travelers satisfied throughout their stay. Then there are the numerous off-site attractions that guests can enjoy every day. You must visit the Anton Valley, which is the world’s only inhabited dormant volcano, and where you can see hundreds of species of birds as well as the Golden Frog, which is a beautiful endangered animal. The famous Panama Canal is also close by, so you shouldn’t miss the opportunity to see it as well. Rest assured that your vacation at Westin Playa Bonita is going to be a huge success.
