Coronado Luxury Club & Suites

Interesting place. I wouldn’t use the word ”luxury” to be honest. A strong feeling of the 90’s. Despite high season it felt like we were almost alone in this enormous resort. Not that we like crowded places but being almost alone in both the resort and the beach club for three days it almost felt spooky 🙈 Two pool bars of which one just felt abandoned.. But nice rooms, ok food, great staff. So, the place have potential but I wouldn’t call it ”luxury”. They could for example shape up the Kids area in the little house that now was just empty. Put some tables, chairs, papers, pens, crayons, hobby/handicraft stuff for the kids to get some break from pool/sun. But, I repeat - all staff was GREAT. ABOUT THE AREA - NOT THIS SPECIFIC HOTEL Another thing to be aware of in Playa Coronado is that it’s like a Gated Community with only private beach clubs. No public area like ”ocean walk” with shops and restaurants, no cosy ”town/village center or street” like we are used to from European beach destinations. For us that was the most negative thing with Playa Coronado, we don’t like to be ”stuck” in a resort. For me, it’s strange with a beach destination that doesn’t have a bunch of public restaurants by the beach with ocean view 🤷🏼‍♀️

Propert6 well maintained but it didnt feel like a luxury stay at all. There are very few in-room amenities (maybe I missed that in description): no coffeemaker, no iron available at all -literally have to contact housekeeping and they will pickup and iron items for you. Sounds nice but if you're just needing to run a few passes of steam and go, this doesnt work. Also no phone in room to contact front desk or housekeeping. You habe to ise WhatsApp. Furnishings were older (fine but not luxurious), tv super small and no outlet near the bed. Restaurant and staff were super and pool areas and bars were inviting. But wouldnt stay there again.

Only one restaurant was open, but it is the rainy season so I guess that's how it is. One of the days my room was not cleaned. That was a little disappointing.

A group of us played golf then ate poolside after. The golf staff were courteous; the restaurant staff indifferent, the food the worst we had throughout our Panama travels. We had played 4 other courses in Panama, and Coronado pricing is similar but there’s no value …a serious **** problem and to find real grass or a fluffy lie was a challenge. The restrooms on the course and at the “spa” were broken and dirty. We didn’t see the rooms, but didn’t need to because we all agreed we would never return.

We visited in the shoulder season and pretty much had the whole resort to ourselves! Our room was big, clean and there was a pool literally right outside our patio doors. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Luis in the restaurant was top notch and Navella at the spa gave a superb deep tissue/ therapeutic massage. Very easy to lose a golf ball on the 18 hole golf course as the fringe gobbled them up - but I guess, if you are good enough to stay on the fairway, you wouldn't have a problem. This resort is NOT on the beach. There is a shuttle that will take you back and forth though. The only drawback was the traffic jam going to and from Panama City. It took about 2 hours one way - no matter what time of day or night.

First time in Panama. Coronado is a great beach town with friendly expats. Will definitely be back and want to stay at this resort and at Martha's Airbnb Suite 1121. Her place was impeccable. The resort itself has incredible amenities, on-site restaurant, room service, beautiful pool, golf course, tennis courts, nice size gym. The staff was gracious and lovely. I felt at home and at ease. Martha was super responsive and ensured we had all the info we needed. When you are on the road and in a foreign country, "your trusted guides" are so important.

Very poorly maintained property Our bathroom toilet alone had a loose toilet seat, the seat was missing bumpers, the caulking was moldy When our room was last painted they did not paint all the way to the baseboards ect… The one pool is missing so many tiles it took years to get that way it was difficult to get a server to acknowledge you for anything whether at the restaurant or the bar

MUY BIEN, ESTADÍA MUY TRANQUILA Y RELAJANTE, EL HOTEL ESTABA VACÍO.

I can't write a review of our room, as it was booked through Air B&B, not with the hotel, so this is just about the hotel part. It is an aging 'luxury' - showing its age with areas needing repairs. The complex is spread out with 3 stories of suites - some with balconies, many without. We stayed there mostly because they have pickleball courts, and the couts are pretty good - if you know when to play and can get in with other local players. The pool area is also very nice - different pools and lots of room to spread out. We did not have pool towels provided in our rental unit and there weren't any available at the pool. The gym looked pretty good, although we didn't use it, or the sauna. There's a good restaurant and bar on site, and the one meal we had at the restaurant was decent and not over priced. We only ended up staying 2 days because our accommodation rental was terrible, so didn't get to enjoy more time at the 'luxury club', or take their shuttle to the beach. The location is OK - but about a 10 minute walk if you want to get to the beach, or else take the shuttle. Seems most people who stayed were golfers. Biggest complaint was difficulty getting taxis to come pick us up - and even when we had asked the concierge to arrange a ride for us a day in advance (checking out to another location), it never arrived and the guy at the desk was of very little help.
