Two of our friends decided to have a destination wedding/elopement in Panama, so last month three couples spent three nights at Cerrito Tropical celebrating the nuptuals of our dear friends. From the first email communication, Cynthia (the owner) was professional, friendly, and incredibly kind and helpful. The highlights include great food, good service, friendly staff, clean rooms, and amazing views.... more

Cerrito has good rooms (spacious, tv, fridge, AC) at decent prices. But the great part about them is that they go out of their way to make you feel at home. They let me check in early (8 AM the day I arrived) and check out late the day I left (3:30 PM), all for no extra charge. The food... more

Cerrito Tropical was nice, basic accommodations a 3 minute taxi ride or 10 min walk from the ferry. The room was large, had good AC and the common room had a DVD player for watching movies. They also provided a great continental breakfast of fruits, coffee/tea/juices, and toast. We were here in the rainy season, so it was hot and... more

Thank you for taking time to review Cerrito Tropical. We appreciate the positive review. In the past, we have had some guests who found there were not enough activities for them, so we hooked up with a couple of local fishermen to offer fishing tours with a local - just yesterday our guests caught a 30 pound corvina (sea bass)....

Cerrito Tropical recently hosted our one-day staff retreat and exceeded all expectations for service and attention. The hotel was a beautiful setting for the day, with an incredible view of the ocean and ships waiting near the mouth of the canal, from the upstairs suite that we used as our meeting spaceoom. Our lunch was delicious and delivered quickly with... more

We have been to the Cerrito Tropical three times now, and each stay gets better. This last stay was like a homecoming weekend, except that we made 'new' friends! The hotel was full, yet the patrons all seemed to bond in the two short days. The owner, Cynthia, was a great host throughout the weekend, and was even able to... more

I went to Cerrito Tropical looking for a place to relax, I found more than that. The B&B is home-like, They take care of the small details as well, I could request housekeeping, fresh coffee brought up to my suite. The view at the La Palma Suite is simply said breathtaking. The chef is really good, I recommend his fish... more

I visited Cerrito with two friends for a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. Cerrito couldn't have been a more perfect choice; between lounging in the hammocks overlooking the gorgeous water, Aristides' delicious cooking and the overall atmosphere and decor of the place...it was hard to leave!! The staff was very helpful when we had any questions... more

My husband & I returned to Panama in February. We enjoy the unique atmosphere of the smaller lodgings as opposed to the cookie-cutter AI. Cynthia met us upon our arrival and it was a welcomed surprise. We truly appreciated the taxi service as the trip up the hill with baggage in tow would be a bit of a challenge. Our... more

Across the Bay from Panama City there lies an enchanted island - Taboga. It is close enough to the big city that you can see it in the distance, especially at night, yet far enough away that you can leave the hectic life style with all its contraptions way behind. I stayed on Taboga a couple of months ago, at... more
