Need to know what is close to the Playa Blanca Resort, is there any nearby towns or villages. Any thought on the hotel itself??

The closest town is Penonome. Here's a link to some info:

The hotel also does trips to El Valle de Anton, which is a really nice place to visit inland and in the hills.

There are some pretty good reviews on here for Playa Blanca. Based on my personal experience, I really enjoyed it but I can read a book, soak up the sun and then sit by the pool bar to have a good time and don't need the resort to provide 24/7 stimulation.

I answered your other post, thinking you were looking at Gamboa. But I'd say much the same thing here. Stay in PC if it's a choice between here and PC. Penonome isn't much. Plus PB's tours seemed expensive, as you would expect at a resort.

Loved Playa Blanca by the way. Check out my review. But for us it was a breather from seeing Panama and a chance to relax with our Panamanian friends instead of them showing us around.
