great apartment with beautiful sea view. It was very clean and equipped with everything you need. The host was very nice and was always available. The kitchen has everything you need to cook for yourself and the bed is very comfortable. We recommend this place. It was very relaxing and the kilometer long beach right outside the front door is beautiful for long walks.
4.0
The ocean. Spactacular sunsets.The view was great of ocean and fields with cows. Fresh fried fish and french fries at the beach restaurant. Cute apartment. Perfect for a single or couple. Bring your own food and supplies.
Poor sunblocking curtain in kitchen. No microwave. No drip pan on frying griddle. Hot plate took forever to boil water. Overwhelming chemical smell under cabinets in kitchen. No dish soap. Limited towels for bath and kitchen, would be nice to have more than one of each for longer staying guests. Outdoor pool was slimy green. Payment method was confusing and key return both required extra unnecessary steps/effort. Should be clarified in advance. No stores or supplies nearby. Bring food, beverages, snacks, and personal hygeine items, other wants or desires. Taxi service is about $30 for 30 min drive into town.

This place is right in front of the beach, the pool is a nice sized and not deep so kids can play safely. The room was a great size for a family of 3. We brought our own food, drink, etc. so we didn't need anything. That is key because there is not many restaurants nearby except the resort and no where to get food or snacks nearby. So bring your own. The view of the beach, sunsets, and stars from the balcony were wonderful. The kitchen had all the appliances you need to make a nice meal. The ACs run great, one in each bedroom cool the whole apartment. There is hot water in both of the showers and the kitchen sink. We went for my birthday and we had a blast.
I enjoyed everything about the space, I have no complaints.

On the beachfront with beautiful view from private balcony, the property is well equipped. The 2 bedrooms have good AC, hot showers, small kitchenette/lounge area with fan, balcony with comfortable seats and small table, and a washing machine. A sufficient amount of toiletries (soap, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion), cleaning products (dishwashing liquid, laundry liquid/powder) and towels (kitchen, pool, shower) were supplied for our 6 night stay. We didn’t have cleaning service during this time but may have enquired if we stayed longer. The wifi worked well, and the swimming pool well maintained & a good option for swimming as the Sea has huge surf and riptide. There were a couple brief power cuts, & the back up generator helped. We opted to walk 4 flights of stairs to not get caught inside the lift. Our host Samuel was a professional and courteous host & speaks English well. For $20 USD he picked us up from David bus terminal in his car, with a stop at the supermarket along the way as there are no shops or ATM near the building. The nearest local shop (with limited choice) is a mini bodega, a 15 min bicycle ride or 30 minute walk. It was super quiet during the week with barely anyone about aside from a handful of maintenance staff. By Sunday late afternoon the black sand beach was bustling with Panamanians. There are a total of 4 nearby restaurants which are open at staggered times. Las Olas resort very nearby is convenient for meals throughout the day with options to sit inside or out. Here we could pay by card. 3 other beach restaurants nearby serve a limited menu of local food. The main attraction in the area is the turtle sanctuary. There is a sign at the beach for@acotmar instagram alerts of turtle hatchings.
The area has a small village feeling where everyone says hello. Some American expats living nearby gave us helpful tips which made our stay in La Barqueta memorable and reassured us its a safe place.
the property & host were perfect. the only thing is the area so leaving some advice for future traveler.... There are an incredible amount of Chitras (biting sand flies or midges), so it is advisable to follow the host’s instructions to close all windows and doors that don’t have screens., and to bring plenty of insect repellent. Otherwise, the place was really clean with no other unpleasant insects.
You also need to ensure to bring enough drinking water.

You are on the beach. Quiet and safe. Walk over to the resort next door (Las Olas) to book excursions such as farm tour, bikes, etc.
Water quality from the tap is discolored. Apparently this is an issue in the locale. Make sure to bring plenty of water for drinking, cooking, and maybe, washing your face.

The owner met us at the entrance and was very welcoming, showed us up to the apartment and introduced us to the features inside. He assured us we could contact him at any time during the stay if we had queries. he also checked in on us a couple of times by text, just to check we were getting on okay and we really appreciated this. When we had an issue with one air condition unit and a blown fuse, he was very quick to respond and send out an engineer to repair them both - we were very happy with that! We loved the sea view and the sound of the ocean, as well as the peaceful surroundings. The premises are very well maintained including the pool. We felt we had a lot of privacy.
Cooking facilities are basic, there was a mini oven which we decided not to use, however the plug in camping cooking rings proved adequate for our meals, so we still got on very well. It should be noted that we are possibly unusual guests in that we chose to cook for ourselves rather than eating out much, so other travellers might have quite a different experience. But having said that we would still have no issue visiting again.

Ambiance, pool, beach atmosphere sun
Very very remote area ocean had extremem riptide. Only good for surfing.
3.5
The owner is an excellent host, picking us up and returning us into town, which is a half hour drive. But the pool was out of commission for our entire stay, plus one full day with no electricity for cooking , wifi use for business, nor air conditioning. Unless you're driving important to bring all food or items needed since there's no place to buy items at the beach.
Otherwise great views, lovely beach with powerful waves, potential for strong undertow so important to swim well or carefully.
