A historic country inn, nestled in the foothills of the Baru volcano, Panamonte Inn and Spa is the perfect base for exploring the Chiriqui Highlands with its unique ecological system and biodiversity. More reminiscent of an elegant home than a hotel, this delightful inn is renowned for its impeccable service and it has one of the best restaurants in Central America. Relax in the gardens and soak up the calming atmosphere that embodies this peaceful sanctuary or learn to cook some regional specialties at the Panamonte Cooking School by Charlie Collins, award-wining Executive Chef, and co-owner of the Inn. Trek the Quetzal trail in search of this beautiful and elusive bird, take a canopy ride through the lush rainforest or experience exhilarating river rafting. Alternatively, take a tasting tour of a nearby coffee plantation or hike to the top of the Baru volcano with its spectacular views. Afterwards, return to the hotel spa for a recuperating hot stone massage. |
