    Very cosy and nicely decorated room and common area. Everything was very good and we felt very comfortable. The terrasse is very nice in the evening and morning. The breakfast was very tasty! We would definetely comeback.

    Cannot say enough good things about this place! Great location at a great price as it's just a few seconds walk from the beaches. The accommodation was ideal for us and had everything we needed - TV, strong WiFi, fridge, teas, coffees, kettle, towels, hammocks etc as well as really thoughtful, useful things that we didn't expect like an extra outside shower to wash off the sand from the beach before entering our rooms and racks to hang-dry our wet beach clothes each night! The breakfast each morning was delicious, and if you want to prepare your own lunches or dinners during the day or night, the kitchen area in the garden has everything you need to cook or BBQ and is available to use as you please. We went to the supermarket on route, so we made our own lunches and dinners for some of the days and then went out for dinner on the last night. Sweet Dreams owners are lovely, friendly hosts who are instantly available to help with anything, but also leave you in peace and give you your space so you feel free and relaxed. We spent our days chilling on the beach, swimming in the ocean and exploring the tide pools to see what little marine creatures we could find and if you're a surfer (or a wannabe surfer!), the ocean had some nice waves for beginner level and there were surf classes being taught at the beach while we were there.

    The volcanic sand can be hard on the feet. This has nothing to do with the property, though.

    The hosts were fantastic, especially Eduardo, who went out of his way to help us with our travels. The room was very comfortable, and the covered patio area not only serves as a place for their really good breakfasts but as a place to hang out in a hammock or play games. The place is tastefully decorated throughout. The beach is a very short walk away. There is not too much to do in the area if you don't surf, but Eduardo showed us how to grab a bus for day trips to El Valle, even giving us a lift to the main road. This place is very good value compared to other options in the area.

    The walls are a bit thin, so you can easily overhear things.

    Nice outside lounge place for relaxing and a very good breakfast in the morning. The beach is just around the corner and next door there is a good surfing school.

    We were craving for fresh produce (fruits and veggies). But we are glad to see this perseverance in Panamanian people and wish them to win from he bottom of our heart.

    Location is perfect. We came for 4 nights and stayed for all 18 nights. At first, because of protests and road closers (our initial plan was to travel west), and later we've fall in love with the place. It is quiet and welcoming: only 2 rooms and tent for rent. Most of the days we were the only guests there. Very few steps from the beach, and a light walk of 1 km to Panamericana highway where you can catch "chivas" going west or east. San Carlos is in walking distance too by the road or by the shore (when the low tide is) with its minimarket and small shops. The hosts Eduardo and Jenny are very nice, they made us feel like at home, being helpful with advice or a small car lift. Breakfast is rich enough to snack on it in late afternoon. The fridge in the room and small kitchenet were very convinient, when we opted for light and homemade meal.

    I liked everything about the place.

    Very nice clean and thoughtful has everything you need to spend the night. Clean, comfortable and homey with nice place to sit outside. Very close to the beach. Excellent breakfast. Friendly welcoming atmosphere and host. You can also buy drinks (beer;soda,wine and simple dinner (spaghetti )etc on the premises.

    The noise from a movie being watched in another suite was disturbing at 10pm and on

    Eduardo was engaging, friendly, very helpful, and willing to provide short rides needed. Breakfast was over the top including eggs, meats,variety of breads, fruit, juice or nectar, cereals, and baked goods. Coffee was in your room or fresh brewed at breakfast. The outdoor patio area was delightful and very comfortable

    There wasn't anything I didn't like.

    Breakfast was wonderful! Served personally in a beautiful outdoor veranda. Lovely tablecloth, fresh coffee, juice, a wide assortment of fruit, muffin, cold cuts, cheeses, breads and eggs. Delicious and consistently good day to day.

    I needed an escape from the city on a budget and this was exactly what I was looking for. A very nice tent equipped with electricity, a fan and an outlet to connect my gadgets. Slept very good and the place was a walking distance from the beach (literally a minute). Delicious homemade breakfast and coffee. Will be coming back. Hosts made me feel comfortable and were very attentive.
