Top El Centro Beach Hotel Reviews

Chateau Beachfront Hotel, A By The Sea Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I loved it ❤️"

Sandpiper Beacon Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This was a really nice little place. We only stayed one night because our original hotel couldn’t accommodate us for an extra night. But, I think this will be where I stay the next time. Nice little kitchen and bathroom. The room was pretty big. The pillows suck but everything else was good."

Boardwalk Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Beach view was nice. Boardwalk could have been better lit, only part past pool was lit up. Outside shower from beach was not working and people were getting in pool to rinse sand off after coming from beach. Was nice to have restaurant and bar on premises. Staff were very professional and helpful. Smell of marijuana was strong, outside and in our room. Nice refrigerator in room. LIked that it was pet friendly."

The Palm & Tide Beachfront Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stay in Panama a bunch the staff was so accommodating to us we came a day early they got us a room and we stayed a extra day and they let us keep the same room and was so kind just small things to help a vacation would be a place to hang towels and wash clothes in the shower and somewhere to put shampoo and body wash"
