Wonderful Experience at Dreams Playa Bonita
We had an amazing stay at this beach hotel. The service was outstanding—staff were always friendly, attentive, and helpful. The facilities are well-maintained and perfect for relaxing. The food exceeded our expectations: a wide variety of delicious options to suit all tastes. Definitely a great choice for a beach getaway near Panama City.

Amazing time, will definitely be back!
We stayed at Dreams in Panama and it was a marvelous time. We even left the resort to go stay in the city for one night and turned right back around and came back to dreams. The service is excellent! The food is really good! The views are breathtaking. We stayed in a preferred room and sat poolside most of the day. The bartender Eric was always amazing providing excellent and fast service. He’s so nice! 10/10 recommend! The hostess at the breakfast buffet Kathleen is also extremely nice! Also William the groundskeeper is the man if you want to see a sloth! He climbed up the tree and took the best pictures for us! So kind! Visit the French and Italian restaurant because the food was great! We will 1000% be back!
