We went for 3 days to the Junior Suite 1.
First day there was a wedding. Noise all night long

When we got there, the TV did not work.

Wifi slow and sometimes it went down.

Antes on the sink, the staff told me that \"usually happens\".

No mosquito screen. You need to sleep with windows opens, which usually slam at night.

You can hear your neighbor through the walls.

Mattresses are really hard.

The keys did not work. Staff told me to \"insert the key slightly\". That was their solution, did not work.

I don't know what happened to Casa Grande Bambito. Maybe it's the staff? But I felt the attention was the minimum. Sadly, won't be returning.

The person working the breakfast was extremely RUDE and unfriendly. Every person related to the restaurant obviously did not like their JOB

Beautiful property in the woods. The hotel restaurant serves wonderful foods. Lots of nature and fresh air. The room was good and had hot water for shower. Internet WiFi was spotty at best but we did have good mobile reception. Good location.

Beautiful Hotel, next to a river and nice garden. Weather is perfect, at around 60-75 degrees farenheit. It can get a bit chillier at night so bring a light coat.
Staff is limited.
They have 1 restaurant and 1 coffee shop which was closed.
They don’t offer room service.
Price was very decent. I would stay again.

Buen Lugar

El hotel esta muy bonito, comodo, buen restaurante, la pasamos muy bien!!!!. Solo dos cosas por mejorar, no tiene aire acondicionado, lo entiendo porque el lugar es fresco, pero en ese caso las ventanas deben tener malla anti insectos cosa que uno pueda abrir las ventanas sobre todo en la noche para que la habitacion se ventile.

Por lo demás excelente, las vistas son espectaculares

It's an escape for one night. The house is dark, for its size there was no sufficient lights. Despite a space in a kitchen there was a refridgerator only, no coffee maker, no wash sink. A good restaurant is on the site. Beautiful nature and kids playground to spend a half day there.

Cute outdoor hotel on mountain stream

The grounds were nice walkways around the various rooms, and a fish pond. The hotel is on a nice mountain stream. The room was aged a bit, but comfortable except there was no hot water. This is not always needed in Panama, but in the mountains it is. The \"A\" restaurant was fine, but the grill was ordinary bar food quality. There is nothing in town (which is only a few houses). This is a stopping off point for things in the area.

I chose this hotel because on Expedia it was indicated that there is a Spa, pool and that you can get massages. In the end there was no such option on the property, so that was very disappointing.
We did not get free coffee with our breakfast, although it should have been included.
Overall the stay was okay.

Very disappointed with this hotel. We were 5 adults and 2 little girls so I ordered the 9 people room. We arrived afternoon, the room was freezing and it has no heater. It was actually colder inside the room than outside. There was no hot water in the shower, I went twice to the front desk to tell them about it and only at the second time they sent someone. He said he fixed it and that we should wait 15 minutes and try again but guess what- it didn’t help. In addition to that the roof was leaking so we had water drops all over the main dining area. We asked to talk to the manager of the property but were told that he’s not coming and we can’t speak to him and that any compensation is not even considered. Very poor customer service regarding handling complaints. Needless to say that we won’t be staying in this hotel ever again.
P.S, in the hotel’s home page in Expedia it’s mentioned that they speak both English and Spanish. None of the staff spoke English.

Beautiful spot

I gave the hotel several 3s. And in other circumstances, I might have given all 3s, but it's Volcan and you shouldn't (and I didn't) expect the Ritz Carlton. It got several 3s because (a) there were a lot of bugs and ants in the room (b) there was a power outage during a rainstorm and the staff/hotel was strangely unprepared for what I would think is a regular event in the rainy season, and (c) staff made no attempt to compensate for (b), e.g. comp a drink at the bar.

If you go to Volcan, this is a beautiful spot to lay your head. And, you need to know Espanol!!!!!!

Beautiful secluded getaway, awesome staff

This is a beautiful property sits on the side of Volcán Baru. The garden and setting is beautiful, facilities and amenities are well maintained. Food in the restaurant is good and well priced. Staff is friendly and helpful. The first great help was sending a vehicle to come pick us up after a taxi left us at the wrong hotel. The second instance where the staff went above and beyond was after I left an iPad in the dresser of our room the day we checked out. I didn't realize it was missing until we were in Panama City almost a full day later. Ana, who was working at reception when I called, had not seen it and went and thoroughly searched the room. It wasn't there and she hadn't seen it in the lost and found so she called the off-duty cleaning person and found that the iPad had been returned and kept in a safe location. Unable to ship to Panama City before our flight back to the States, Ana agreed to ship to a hotel in Boquete where we had made friends with the American owner. I am extremely grateful for the honesty of the staff and the exceptional customer service and highly recommend Casa Grande Bambito if you're lucky enough to visit Chiriquí province.

if you like strawberries

the best about this hotel is the location, this area grows alot of fruits and veggies, strawberry stands within walking distance with great sundaes and banana splits, great food at the hotel too but the slowest service in Panama and thats saying something. The room started out great with a newly renovated bathroom that included a giant soaking tub but we couldn't access the internet so the hotel changed our room to one in a duplex, it was charming but had poor lighting and a very small rundown bathroom and the noise carried from the attached room, worst of all the internet was barely useable. we didn't stay the 2 nights we booked. the hotels need to understand that when you advertise wi fi that we rely on that even though we are on vacation we still need to check in with those at home,work and for our other travel reservations!!

Last Minute Cancellation

The day before I was to check into Casa Grande, I received emails and phone messages from hotels.com booking alerting me of a problem with my reservation. I lost 2 hours of my precious time in Panama City dealing with this unforeseen cancellation. After being shuffled back and forth between representatives, I was finally able to get 3 out of 5 days at the hotel. I'm not sure if I'm more upset with hotels.com or with Casa Grande.

Quizás incluir abanicos en las habitaciones podría brindar mayor comodidad mientras se está dentro de ella. Regularmente es fresco pero tiene pocas ventanas de ventilación lo que no circula el aire para que se sienta el frío como afuera de la habitación.

Waren überhaupt nicht zufrieden. Die ganze Anlage ist ziemlich heruntergekommen, von der Zimmereinrichtung ganz zu schweigen. Das Bettgestell war kaputt, die Wände hatten Risse sowie die Möbel auch. Die Bettwäsche war fleckig und somit unnutzbar, weshalb wir unsere Reisehandtücher zum schlafen nutzen mussten. Im Badezimmer krabbelten mehrere Ameisen auf dem Waschbecken und der Ablage und eine Raupe fanden wir auch.
Wir hatten eines der Zweibettzimmer mit Gartenblick, das direkt gegenüber von dem Restaurant lag, wo an diesem Tag eine Hochzeit gefeiert wurde. Darüber wurden wir zu keinem Zeitpunkt informiert. Die extrem laute Musik brachte unsere Tür zum Beben und wir konnten nicht schlafen.
Eigentlich hatten wir das Hotel für 2 Nächte gebucht, flüchteten aber nach einer Nacht, weil es so schrecklich war!

Una estadía relajante

La experiencia en general fue muy buena ya que te encuentras en medio de la naturaleza, con un clima delicioso, a orillas de un río. Las personas que atienden en general muy amables. La comida tanto del restaurante para almuerzo y cena deliciosa y a unos precios excelentes. Las opción es de desayuno qué vienen incluidas con el hospedaje muy bueno.
Lo único que les puedo sugerir es mejorar la limpieza de los cuartos, ya que al estar em el medio de tanta naturaleza se meten insectos en las esquinas de las habitaciones. Y también me parece que los baños necesitan anaqueles para que uno pueda colocar sus acceaorios de baño a la hora de ducharse.

Possibliter de faire du lavage.

Excelente lugar como punto de partida para conocer Tierras Altas, se nota que han hecho excelente trabajo por mantener áreas comunes y que hay otras áreas como la piscina y juego de Ping pong con áreas de mejoras. Las habitaciones bien generalmente, deben revisar detalles en los baños para su buen funcionamiento. Lo recomiendo 100%. Restaurante y bar se pasa buen rato y el personal atento.
