    During low season, there is not much to do around the area and there are not a lot of restaurants. However there is a great cooking space for you to make your own meal and you can also order food if you want.

    We loved our stay at Casa Swell. The room was nice and spacious. A very enjoyable pool and sitting area. Good communication with the hosts who were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was made fresh and delicious every morning (if you choose this option). The accommodation is near the beautiful beach, only a 5 to 10 minute walk.

    Nice people and staff in an unusual, yet quiet and relaxing, facility.

    The bed was too hard for my liking but yet I did sleep.

    The facility and the room were very nice, just a bit different. The difference being that each room, with a bathroom, was separate from the others with an outside sitting area. The kitchen along with the eating area was under a cover by the pool. No food or drinks allowed in the room, but sitting outside, under a cover, was fine for us. No television in the room, just one in the eating area by the pool. Lots of hammocks and lounging areas. The nearby beach had no name and accessible thru a narrow walkway between beachfront homes. Quiet and very relaxed stay.

    2 local streets leading to the property were not paved yet - less than half mile. A bumpy car ride ride for a few minutes

    I liked verything! Modern big rooms. Each room can sleep upto 4 & has a big king bed & 2 trundle single beds. Big open-air communal kitchen & dining area overlooking a nice pool. Natural beautiful setting with fruit trees. Staff reachable immediately via text message or whatsapp. Five miute walk to the beach. This is a safe enclosed property that would be great for families, families with small children or like us friends & couples travelling in a group!

    We absolutely loved our stay at Casa Swell! The hosts—Ben, Eva, and Cedric—were amazing and incredibly helpful. They shared so much interesting info about Coronado, which made our visit even more special. The room was clean, and the bed was super comfortable. The location is perfect, just a short walk from the beach, and the pool area is a great spot to chill .

    When you are in the hotel area you feel like the rest of the world doesn't even exist and you could definatly spend days just chilling by the pool, on the amacas, playing pool, etc Room is spacious, clean, and everything was working properly

    There was nothing I did not like.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the stay. Very relaxing, super friendly and the care takers, Seba and Jacinta were fabulous. I felt so welcomed from the first moment, and together with the other guests we quickly became a group of happy people having a great time. Jay, the host, whom I did not meet was in the background on WhatsApp. The few questions I had he replied immediately as well as he helped with finding reliable transportation from Panama City. Thank you Jay, Seba and Jacinta for making my stay a lot of fun, I loved it😊

    A car or a taxi is needed to go around to places. Cafes, restaurants, stores etc are a short driving distance away.

    Charming small hotel! We had a cozy room and a super comfortable bed. We also loved the common area where travellers could casually mingle and get to know each other. Lovely rustic decor of the place and a perfect little garden around the pool give Casa Swell a lot of character. The hosts were super accommodating!

    We really enjoyed Casa Swell! It was private, the beach was close and the breakfast was good! We had the most romantic vacation watching stars from the poolside bed and having long walks at the beach. It felt like we owned the place (I wish!), because it felt like home. The actual owner was really helpful and friendly! This place is for you if you prefer private vacation, beautiful nature and cool activites. The bed was really comfortable in my opinion. Only the best emotions from this place!
