ABOUT PANAMONTE INN & SPA - in their own words:

Boquete’s Host to World Travelers, Since 1914

The Panamonte Inn & Spa is famous for its gracious hospitality, antique charm and exquisite cuisine. The Panamonte is not a hotel or a lodge, but the true definition of a country inn: a warm and friendly place for travelers seeking a comfortable ambiance and personalized attention, a home away from home.

Since 1914, the Panamonte Inn & Spa has hosted travelers and explorers the world over. The Inn is owned and run by the Collins-Elliot family, who for more than 50 years has harmoniously blended their Scandinavian traditions with the friendliness and natural beauty that Boquete is known for. Located at the foot of Barú Volcano, the Panamonte is the perfect base for exploring the Chiriquí Highlands, and it is the only full-service lodging option in Boquete, offering a deluxe SPA and regionally renowned gourmet restaurant.

Our guests love the fresh scent of the inn’s beautifully tended gardens, and that the Panamonte is on a country road just a 5-minute walk to downtown. It is the ideal base for enjoying one of Boquete’s annual festivals, such as the Feria de las Flores (Flower Festival) or the Feria de las Orquidea

The Panamonte Inn & Spa is located in the cool highlands of Boquete, in the Chiriquí region, a 45-minute drive from David.

In addition to the Panamonte’s 12 new guest rooms, all of our rooms have been newly renovated to provide true comfort, yet we’ve been careful to maintain the antique look and feel that evokes charm and a quieter, less hurried era in Panama. All guestrooms are equipped with newly upgraded bathrooms, telephones, hair dryers, air-conditioning, security safe, internet connection, and Sky TV; our suites feature fluffy robes and slippers. All rooms are surrounded by beautiful gardens full of birds and butterflies, with lots of outdoor areas for lounging … or napping

GOURMET DINING:
The Panamonte Inn & Spa is renowned for its gourmet cuisine and its cozy fireside lounge and bar. Condé Nast Traveller has named the Panamonte’s restaurant as one of the best in Central America, and the Washington D.C.-based publication Capital Chef has called the restaurant the best in Panama. People come from near and far to savor the flavorful creations of co-owner and award-winning chef Charlie Collins, who has fused his overseas culinary experience with his passion for Panamanian cuisine to produce a menu that is both international and indigenous.

The Panamonte has a more formal dining room and a fireside lounge, where guests may order from the regular menu or opt for a lighter meal from the bar menu. On Sundays the Panamonte offers a special Brunch Menu.

ACTIVITIES & WHAT TO DO:
Beautiful Boquete. A tropical Shangri-La tucked away in the mountain highlands at the foot of Volcano Barú. Boquete is a storybook village enveloped by jagged emerald peaks capped in cloud forest. Shade-grown coffee plantations swirl with incandescent birds, and rainbows appear suddenly and with surprising frequency.

In Boquete, spring is everlasting, with balmy temperatures year-round and lush flora that overflows from the side of winding country roads, gardens and flower boxes. Local Ngöbe-Bugle women stride through the streets in billowy, colorful dresses. Trout-filled, crystalline rivers trickle down through the rainforest, and butterflies prance through the air.

Simply put, Boquete is the kind of place that ecotravelers, birdwatchers and nature lovers dream about. From wild canopy rides to river rafting to trekking through rainforest, catching a glimpse of the famous Resplendent Quetzal to “cupping” fine coffee, Boquete offers plenty to do – and plenty of space to do nothing but relax and soak in the paradisaical ambiance. After a long day exploring, we’ll leave you rested and well-fed with our spa and gourmet restaurant.
