About
Playa Blanca Beach Resort, Spa & Residences
Playa Blanca is located in the province of Cocle, Panama – 115 km from the city (an hour and a half drive) crossing the Bridge of the Americas. A new airport is being built in Rio Hato, near the Playa Blanca, for easier guest access to the location.
The area where Playa Blanca is located is commonly known as the Arco Seco (Dry Arc) in Panama – meaning there is good weather in the area throughout the year!
The Playa Blanca Resort is a striking oasis situated on one of the most beautiful beaches of Panama’s Pacific coast. Enveloped by lush surroundings, this impressive all inclusive hotel features 2 sparkling pools, specialty restaurants, a snack bar, and several bars. Guests can experience an array of land and water sports such as tennis, aerobics and dance classes, kayaking, and more. Each of the stylish guestrooms and suites include a balcony offering breathtaking views of the gardens, pool, or ocean. Visitors can enjoy the wonderful scenic views of the countryside and the Panama Canal en route to the Playa Blanca Resort hotel before settling in for a tropical beach retreat.

Wonderful locations near The Playa Blanca
The Panama Pacific coast is world famous for sport fishing. Ask the concierge about charters where you can reel in a giant marlin or sailfish. In addition to ocean fishing, some of the charter operators will take you into Panama’s interior to fish for trout in its streams or huge bass in its lakes.
The Panama interior mountains are an eco tourist dream. Rent a car and head up to el Valle where you can see some of Panama’s famous and currently endangered golden frogs. The extinct volcanic caldera is a verdant paradise. There are a number of walking tours around el Valle. There are also a number of nice restaurants in town, including Casa del Lourdes at Los Mandarinos Hotel and the Orchid Room at the Anton Valley Hotel.
If you come to el Valle on a Sunday, visit the market. There will be handcrafted items for sale at substantially lower prices than at the hotel gift shop. Check out the hand painted wooden bowls or bring home a hammock or basket made in Panama.
Around el Valle are waterfalls. They are most impressive from May to December, which is Panama’s rainy season. Visit El Macho, just five minutes from the center of el Valle. This beautiful part of Panama has been inhabited long before Columbus, so if you have time, ask about the petroglyphs. This is part of the world that was warm and wonderful during the last ice age!
