The worst ever
This was terrible and dirty! We drove for 6 hours and got in around midnight ( I reached out to the resort and let them know a couple days before it would be late). When walking in there was alot going on. Setting up for a party and check in was upstairs, which was very confusing. Part of the floors were torn up. Not a great first impression but once we got in the room (at midnight) our 19 yr jumped in the shower and then realized our room had no towels or wash clothes. We had to call down and ask for them. The room was old, the bathroom had broken tile, mold and water damage on the picture. The next day I took a shower and realized they didn't have a blow dryer. I had to call and wait for one almost causing us to be late for our pick up time for a booked excursion (Thank goodness they were 10 mins late). I had read some bad reviews but thought I would still give it a try, big mistake. While in Panama we stayed at 5 different places. We loved all but this one. Don't stay here!!!!

This was our second stay at Summit. Please please reconsider before booking. Three main issues from our first visit have only become worse. 1.Deferred maintenance (balcony door wouldn't open, hot water didn't work, thermostat malfunctioned). 2. Staff very unhelpful and unfriendly. It's as if we were bothering the reception staff with even simple questions. If you don't speak great Spanish, you will have a difficult time. 3.LOUD PARTIES! This property prioritizes weddings and other events. On our first night this trip, there were three separate weddings happening at the same time, two of which created significant access challenges to the elevators and other amenities. Every single night we've stayed at Summit (4 nights in early 2020 and 2 nights in 2024) there was at least one large, loud event. This property has incredible potential, but the management clearly its priorities (large events trump smaller parties). I would glady pay double the nightly fee for a better maintained property, more helpful and friendly staff and a few less bass-thumping evening parties.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
A number of things bothered me. - no hand towels or wash cloths in the bathroom. - need second trash can in main living area. - no desk chair for using computer. - elevators close too fast and don’t open when an obstacle is in place. - water never gets hot in shower. - food in restaurant overpriced and always overcooked. - all of the outdoor pool seating is around children’s pool (annoying). - ran out of certain foods at breakfast (yogurt, scrambled eggs). - bathroom sink initially backed up but eventually worked properly. - for over $100/night, I would expect better amenities and housekeeping. You won’t be a five-star hotel anytime soon, and I don’t think we’ll be returning anytime soon.
