Not Dreams Standards

CynthiaO13 (Chester, Canada) on Jun 10, 2026

The resort location is exceptional, and the room configuration is well-conceived, with all accommodations offering views of the pool and beach. However, the property as a whole is in need of updating, both interior and exterior. In its current condition, the resort does not reflect international Dreams brand standards. The overall presentation and product quality are more consistent with a three to four-star property than the five-star all-inclusive experience the Dreams brand represents.

Older Resort - Do Your Research

travey79 on Jun 02, 2026

As a UVC Preferred club member, this resort is very old and outdated. The food is subpar typical resort menu food nothing spectacular, spa was under construction and outdated, no real amenities, drinks outside of preferred club are watered down, pool was full of flying ants and other bugs so unable to enjoy. They need to do a total renovation as the grounds are 20+ years old. As far as location, about 20-25 minutes away from Casco Viejo and other areas of interest. About 40 minutes from the airport. Ubers are reasonable or you can rent a car. There is a language barrier with most of the staff and uber drivers in Panama so be prepared to use Google Translate. On a more positive note, the grounds are well kept around the pool, and we had some great service from a few of the bar tenders. We ended up making a ton of reservations outside of the resort since the food was not that great. Please do your research and read the reviews before booking. We have visited better UVC properties around the world however wont be back to visit this resort.

beautiful resort

We had a great family vacation at Dreams Panama! There were fun activities near the pool and the dancing lessons in the lobby were great. The lunch at seaside grill was consistently delicious and had great options. We loved Oceana for dinner! The staff was kind, friendly and professional. I would highly recommend this resort.
