Home away from home.

The owner is awesome, very accommodating, relaxed atmosphere, rooms were spacious and clean. Food was some of the best on our trip and pool was great. It is Right on the beach for swimming or just fall listening to the waves! Many expats come for drinks and they are very warm and inviting you feel like your home.

The staff were polite, the bed comfortable and room clean. Water went off for over 12 hours and we had to use the pool water to flush the toilet but I do not think this had anything to do with the hotel as I was told this was the normal in this part of Panama. No one cleaned our room while we were there for 5 days, and we had to put the trash out and requested tissue, towels, etc.

When we arrived, never having been there, we were immediately made to feel very much at home. They acted like they truly appreciated our business and our company there. The first person we met was Mario. He was very welcoming and friendly and let us know if there was anything we needed to let him know. The girls that work there are also friendly, and almost by accident, we met the owner David. David is great! Puerto Armuelles is fortunate to have him and his business there. He was also very accommodating and interesting to talk to. Our stay was awesome. We absolutely enjoyed our time there and look forward to coming back again. They have the best place on the beach and met all of our needs. The food was good, the drinks were good and the company was great! Awesome, awesome place!

We really enjoyed our stay at Big Daddy's. The place is very clean and the staff is super friendly and always very helpful. The restaurant food is very good and their hours are convenient. If you get back to the hotel after 9pm, you need to use the doorbell to alert someone to let you in. I appreciated that actually, as to me it meant good security all around. All in all I highly recommend this hotel as a base to explore the lovely area of Puerto Armuelles.

BD's is a very nice little 11 room hotel right on the Pacific Ocean. It's not fancy, but it has a nice pool and an elevated restaurant dining area overlooking the ocean. The staff was very helpful and kind. I will go back.

Stayed in the honeymoon suite facing the ocean. The beds were very comfortable and clean. The AC kept up with the brutal heat and humidity. Customer service was excellent. Fresh coffee at sunrise and good hearty Panamanian breakfast to start the day.

Nice small hotel in Puerto Armuelles

This was just a one-night stop for us, in conjunction with a trip to a monkey preserve nearby. We were very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the accommodations. The room was large, with a sitting area and a comfortable bed. The pillows didn't work as well for us, but that tends to be individual. They have a nice deck here you can eat and/or have a glass of wine looking out over the ocean. Pool was nice. One suggestion would be to make the toilet a bit more private in the room. The restaurant menu is limited, but the food we had was good. It served our purposes very well and we would return.
