Located 16 miles from El Cacao, Dos Mares Venao Village offers an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and air-conditioned accommodations with a terrace and free WiFi.

Dos Mares was the silver lining and shining star to our Panamá trip. The property, rooms and facilities are immaculate. Coffee every morning was a treat and conversation with Chiara (the property manager) was easy, informative, and helpful. After we left the property, we ended up coming back to eat a meal with her and her sweet friend who was visiting from Germany. My dad caught a couple fish so Chiara prepared us a beautiful meal. We should have never left and finished out our Panamá trip at Dos Mares!

Eco Venao is set within a 140 hectare (346 acre) reforestation project. With a choice of low impact accommodations. Offering a restaurant and Free Wi-Fi access.

Best beach ever, huge, no rocks, wonderful waves,no undertow. So much fun, felt like a kid again, and we are in our mid seventies! Staff could not have been better, - the manager Estoben, staff Manual, Eli, Aaron, Juliette etc, all exceptional. The restaurant and bar was very cool based around a big old style fishing boat. The food was very good. Very romantic setting at night under the multiple strings of lights made it like a movie setting. Lots of places to lounge in the shade or under trees in their large wooden chaise lounges. Saw howler monkeys in the trees. There are plenty of trails, one leading to a waterfall.

    I stayed two nights in the Eco Venao Lodge. Right at the beginning there was a very friendly reception. They showed me also other rooms for rent in this lodge, but I stayed with the casita I had booked. The casita in the forest was a really great experience: view from the terrasse and windows into the forest. The room was perfectly clean and everything worked. The WiFi was fast.

    We had a wonderful stay at Surf Lodge. The place has a magical feel and is located on the mountainside with a beautiful view of the sea. Meredith and Jonathan were excellent hosts and are very welcoming, they will help you with anything and are so reliable. Would love to come back!

    The surf lodge is a really incredible place. The hosts are very welcoming and the house is very modern. My room was big and clean and comes with a modern bathroom and airconditioning. The view from the shared balcony over the bay is amazing. The place comes with a lovely family, who is really amazing and incredibly helpful.
