Everything was great, view, cleanliness, accessibility to beach. Response from property maintenance was prompt and efficient when the air-conditioning stopped working. Only downfall would be the beds are not that comfortable, but that alone would not stop me from visiting again. Definitely an A1 place to stay!!

This was our first time in Panama as we booked this last minute. The unit was great. Had all the amenities we needed and then some. It was clean, comfortable, large, and loved being able to look at the ocean from our bed each morning. We loved the free beach chair and umbrella rental that came with the condo. That was an amazing feature that actually enticed me to book this particular unit. There was a beach wagon that we used to load and unload the car which was very useful. The covered parking garage and parking spot also alleviated a lot of stress. Our only personal qualms that we had were from the condo itself and this is due to us typically staying at smaller condos and during the October time. There are only two working elevators for 23ish floors. They had men working the elevators during busy times. We could hear the patrons above us and beside us while in bed most nights. We didn’t stay at the pool, but it looked like there might not be a lot of seating options during peak time. All that said, we would definitely book again as the unit was exactly what we want on our beach vacation!

Unfortunately, the current President’s disdain for Canada and his unwarranted attacks on our country makes it impossible for us to return.

Another great stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have rented now from Gretas’s rentals five or six times over the years. Whenever we have had an issue during the stay they are very quick to respond. Our master bed mattress was less then comfortable this last stay, I reached out and they were quick to respond however weren’t able to switch out the mattress during our stay. So I can’t give a five star rating. Also, the indoor pool had worms all over the walls. I realize this is more of an issue with the building rather then the condo itself but it was disappointing since the weather was cold and the kids would have liked the indoor pool.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Thank you for a wonderful home away from home! We chose to stay in the exact same condo as the last time we were there in 2022 and it was just as fun. The only thing negative thing I would say and negative is harsh, but I felt like the bathrooms could have been cleaner. The toilets had black stuff all where the water comes out and you saw it every time you flushed. I took the brush to both toilets and it came right off. Also the under side of the toilet seats were not clean and there was dirt and hair in the corners of the bathrooms. Other than that, the cleanliness was great. I do wish the furniture in the living room was a little more comfortable, you can tell the blue couch has been around for awhile. These are minor things that will not keep us away though, just providing honest feedback.

Love Ocean Reef

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We always enjoy our time at Ocean Reef. It's our 3rd year staying in the same place and condo. I was a tad disappointed in the cleanliness. One shower had no drain cover so you could see all the hair just stuck from previous people and the other shower had so much gunk in the drains that we didn't use it due to the tub filling up ankle deep due to clog and it was gross. The floor was quite dirty, our bare feet were black day 1. We found a pair of underwear and socks from a previous stay under the bed. Under the beds and furniture, it is just sitting dust so like I said we love the place, but the cleanliness and shower situation wasn't great. I hope they get it taken care of. I left a similar review last year so here's hoping this reaches someone.

Great Getaway with terrible elevators

This is our second year staying at one of Greta's properties, and we were excited to. We love the balcony overlooking the coastline, the room easily sleeps 5-6 people and comes with everything you need to feel like home. The pools and sauna were very nice as well as the access to the beach directly. The only issues we had were dust allergies so a deeper clean would be helpful, and the elevator was a problem. We got there with only 2 out of 3 working and were down to only one for all 163 units during the busy Memorial Day weekend. We were one of the groups of people that were stuck in elevator number 2 and ended up having to call the Fire Service to be rescued. While there, we looked at the Service Certificate and it said the elevator certificate expired in August of 2024! Several of the ladies in there including one of the people I was traveling with experienced claustrophobia and terror after the incident. Tenants who had been there before said the same thing happened last year. We love the condo itself, and the property amenities, but elevators that aren't serviced and break down trapping people (we weren't the only ones last weekend) are unacceptable.
