So good this is my 2nd trip back to this paradise
I had to stop in and write a review here. I've been here before and enjoyed my stay more than I can put into words. I've stayed at this private seaside property before and decided to come back. This Coronado Beach House is wonderful. The silver sand beach is just a 5 min stroll. The designers professional work here shows in the renewals and 4* amenities, I feel so calm and stress-free here. Designed for one's comfort and personal enjoyment. Outdoor Tropical Living at best. The ocean air, lap pool, terraces with outdoor kitchens, bbqs , private self-contained suites beautifully decorated , clean and with top of the line amenities. The tropical birds are always pleasantly chirping. In Coronado everything is 5 minutes away from the beach here - the spas, restaurants, bars, shopping, social activities, golf. Coronado is Life.
For me this trip was all about rest and relaxation. I spent long days by the pool in the hammock and laying about working on my writing and my tan.. The wifi is excellent which made it easy to work remotely .
I just wanted to say Thank You for the great, easy going atmosphere. Love the neighbourhood.
My new regular vacation spot. I will see you again 6 months !! I've found ... My Happy Place !

incredibly beautiful,amazing place to vacation
I stayed here for a month long I came at the start of July and spent the hot summer there, I spent most of my time in the pool and was even able to learn how to surf at a close by local shop for my birthday, the wonderful lady let me set up a knife throwing set in her front yard, I got to pick mangos and other fruits right from the tree, got to go swimming five minutes away from where I was staying at the beach, would definitely recommend to come here before your time is up.

Exactly what you're looking for
I stayed with Marie for the month of August. There was nothing left wanting for. From daily pool side drinks, to the sandy beach1 block away, relaxation was at your fingertips. From the moment we arrived, Marie picked us up and not only drove us the scenic 45 minute drive to Coronado, but filled us in on all the rich and amazing history. Picassos was a local restaurant with good food, live music and the World Cup games. The Volcano town and market were a wonderful day trip, as was the fish market, a must see! Buy fresh lobster and prawns and fish and use the outdoor bbq that is provided. If you are looking for night life and loud music, this is not the place for you. If a quiet pice of paradise is what you seek, then this is where you want to be. This was my third time back, and won't be my last.

Seasides Suites & Lofts, Playa Coronado, Panama
Please bear with me and try to read my review in its entirety. I feel like our story is your story and most travellers do not take the time to educate others on their experience. I am hoping to save others from what we went through.
We all work hard for our money. Some of us are fortunate and are able to save some of our well earned dollars to go away on a holiday. A sunny and warm climate away from the grey skies and cold winter weather of Toronto is always a great choice. We are grateful to be one of the lucky ones!
We booked our flight and accommodations a year in advance. We did our due diligence and research so we had thought. We decided that Panama would be our choice of destination specifically the Playa Coronado Beaches. We discovered it was safer than other countries in South America, the weather was consistently 28 to 32 Celsius in February/March, no precipitation and travel by airplane proximity was desirable.
We wanted to spend a month away so we decided to join three Facebook groups: All Things Coronado, Expats in Coronado and Coronado Eat-Shop-Play. We asked our new FB group “friends” for advice on finding accommodations. We received a number of responses but MJ Markie aka MJ Barens a retired Canadian who resides in Panama intercepted and against our better judgment we decided to rent a loft from her privately outside of Airbnb to save fees. We rented the Seaside Beach Loft in Playa Coronado, Panama.
Over the year of communication through Facebook MJ appeared to be helpful. I felt like we had made the right decision but a nagging feeling I had would come to light once we landed in Panama.
Our connecting flight from Mexico City was delayed due to Aeromexico’s misinformation regarding gate departure, nevertheless, we had damage control to take care of as soon as possible. I messaged MJ at 10:00 am in the morning which was plenty of time to notify our driver she had arranged and we had paid for in advance. The driver’s contact info was never provided to us other than his first name. Our original arrival time in Panama was around 1 pm. After making flight re-arrangements our arrival time was now 5:30 pm. Please note that we were advised the day before from MJ that she was going away for the weekend of our arrival and that her mother would meet us at the house. No further instructions were received.
We were busy on our departure day with packing and errands. Our flight was leaving at 12:05 am. We left for the airport at 9:30 pm. It had been a hectic day. We did not look at emails nor did I expect to receive another last minute email with a wifi code and/or unrealistic demands regarding water usage and a/c expectations. Information that should have been provided from the start otherwise we would have reconsidered our decision. I had inquired about wifi, a/c as well as tv in the unit when first booking. I was told twice that these services were available in our unit. Our unit did not have wifi nor a tv.
Fast forward. No driver was at arrivals nor any response from our host. I called MJ and she was very aloof. The helpful host we had communicated with for a year was gone. The nagging gut feeling I had over the past year was now a hard reality. She coldly stated that she had no reception to receive messages although it showed a read/received confirmation on WhatsApp on our end therefore the driver was not contacted in time. The driver showed up at the original arrival time, waited then left. We were then advised that it was too late to check into the property and we should find a hotel. It was 6 pm. Hardly too late. MJ never reimbursed us.
While we were trying to digest my call with our host and research reasonable hotels for the night the driver coincidentally showed up at the airport for another transfer and recognized us from our photo provided. We arranged a transfer to a hotel close by with him. That night cost us an extra $200 CDN. We were literally physically and mentally exhausted. We had been awake for 34 hours. We showered and fell into bed. We were still in sleep deprivation mode when the driver picked us up at 6:00 am. It was the only time slot he had available to transfer us to Playa Coronado.
We arrived at 7:30 am and MJ’s mother checked us in. She knew nothing about the property and had no instructions other than a book she asked us to fill in with personal information that I felt was was a bit much. I told her we were just renting the loft from her daughter and not applying for a job.
Her mother was kind enough to take us to the local grocery store to pick up some things which was about 15 minutes away in car. We had no car at this point as we were told by our host that one was not needed unless we planned on day trips elsewhere. We found out quickly that this was misinformed information. We were given no instructions to operate the air conditioning unit. We were told later to use it as a courtesy and for 15 minutes only before bedtime at a temperature of 27/28 degrees. We were left alone to fend for ourselves for three days except for their two dogs. Fortunately the dogs were friendly but lonely.
Our muggy and overheated first night’s sleep at our seaside loft was interrupted by whining and barking dogs. That sinking feeling I had was increasing tenfold. We woke up still feeling very disappointed and wish we had gone thru Airbnb. We would have been protected.
Our vacation was not off to the start we had anticipated. With time on our hands we decided to take photos and document videos and continued to throughout our stay.
To give you a visual first impression of what we encountered the property is an overall unfinished construction site. Patio furniture is old and musty. The front of the property is designed to provide a secured parking lot which was laid with gravel and very dusty. The grounds resemble a junk yard. The property is gated and surrounded by a barbed wire fence. Not unusual in Panama but we had to rely on our host to unlock the large padlocked gate every morning and hope that we arrived back on time at night before she secured it again. She would not provide a key to guests. Please note the photos we saw upon renting were different.
Our third day in a couple returned from a short trip to Panama after having been here for two weeks. They were renting the king garden suite for 3 weeks. They informed us of their disappointment. We were told that others were all shocked by the description of the property and what they found. A number left early and did not stay for the days paid for without reimbursement. Two other renters would come and go during our stay with the same opinion. All have written bad review since then.
Our host showed up later that day. We sat down with her to discuss our concerns. She said we were welcome to leave without a refund. We had no choice but to make the best of a bad situation as we did not want to lose the money we paid for the month. We would have had to spend the same amount $2500 or more for a last minute accommodation change. We spent our time with other guests which helped us survive our stay. On our fifth day in we decided to take a long bus ride back to Panama City to rent a car. This was the best decision we could have made. We spent many days driving to Santa Clara beach which is a thirty minute car ride enjoying the white sand beaches and restaurants.
The Seaside loft which we thought as others had before us was not beachfront property at all. It turned out to be a long walk to a volcanic black sand beach which was unattractive with no restaurants or beach chairs/tiki huts except one which had no specific hours. The gravitational pull of the Pacific Ocean tide at this bay was like a washing machine and unsafe at times.
On the days we decided to hang out by the pool there were several times during our stay we could not. The pool pump was constantly turned off producing cloudy, algae and not swimmable and daily cleaning of debris was not catered to by our host. We had no relief from the 32 C Panama weather.
Requests were directed to our host during our stay regarding the unkept pool, the wifi, tv and other issues ie. broken bbq’s, holes in our bedsheets, dog feces left around the property and a foul odour of urine and feces coming up through our shower drain which was a septic tank issue. We ended up expensing a $300 home away plan with our cell phone provider.
Please go to you tube and check out our videos. Search for Beachside Private-Clean Spacious King suites, Seaside...Coronado Beach & Private King Suites, Seaside King Suites....at the Beach, Coronado Beach - Seaside Beach Loft. FYI: the units are advertised separately on three different vacation rental sites. The only reviews we saw originally were ones that she asks guests to write in a guest book. She sits across from guests til they finish writing. Guests feel obligated to write something positive. When they write their true review on line our host questions their reliability. I am expecting that she will respond to this review with a generic response.
We did in the end leave a week early. We lost $625 CDN but gained privacy and much better conditions but expensed an additional $400 CDN for a condo in Panama City. We could not endure the continuing pool conditions, a/c restrictions, and overshadowing hanging out by the pool and listening to our conversations. Even when she went inside her unit we all witnessed her peeking out of her drapes at us. It wasn’t exactly a relaxing environment.
In conclusion we were quite happy to leave our holiday at the Seaside loft in Coronado along with its challenges. Reminder: please view the photos/videos relating to our stay. They are worth “a thousand words”. Our advice would be to never book a home/condo or other residence privately with a host outside of a legitimate vacation site where you are protected if your expectations are not met. We wish you the best of luck in finding accommodations and a location that meet your needs. Don’t be disappointed. Be wise. Cheers Pamela & Will💋
