Bristol Buenaventura Offers Unparalleled Panamanian Experience by the Beach
Bristol Hotels, Panama’s premier hotel group, is pleased to introduce its new beachside resort, Bristol Buenaventura, which opened this past February. Conveniently located within an upscale gated residential community just 80 minutes southwest of Panama City, this intimate hotel boasts a number of high-end amenities and offers guests an unparalleled Panamanian experience by the beach.
Adorned with elegant Spanish colonial-style designs, the new hotel features 114 spacious guest rooms and lavish suites, each equipped with private balconies offering stunning views of the on-property lake, ocean horizon and surrounding gardens. Additionally, 18 two-story lagoon villas, each with either four or five bedrooms, large living room, dining area, fully-equipped kitchen, open terrace and private infinity plunge pool, are located by the lake and are an ideal getaway for families or couples looking for more private accommodations.
Guests at Bristol Buenaventura are invited to dine at one of the hotel’s many restaurants, all featuring the imaginative work of the resort culinary team. The main dining locale, Tamarindo Restaurant, offers Latin Fusion-inspired cuisine, complete with indoor and outdoor seating, as well as on the outdoor lakeside Alfresco terrace. Just north of this main dining room lies Terraza Caobos, a quaint eatery perfect for an early breakfast under the shade of the large Corotu tree. Finally, guests can enjoy casual pool and beach menus at the poolside Tagua Grill and El Faro Club House. The hotel bars, Bar-a-Lago and Solera Pool Bar, also invite guests to indulge in refreshing cocktails with their friendly and welcoming bar atmospheres.
Bristol Buenaventura also boasts a number of activities, ranging from tennis to water sports to horseback riding. Only a six-minute walk from the main building, El Faro Club House is the heart of the property and serves as the meeting point for most water sports, including jet skiing, fishing tours, sailboat rides and snorkeling. With direct access to the beach, El Faro houses the private beach butler service, allowing sunbathing guests to order snacks, beverages, sunscreen and more from the comforts of their chaise lounge. The hotel’s nearby private stable is also home to two Peruvian horses and two ponies that can be rented for a sunset ride around the lake, beach or gardens. Additionally, after a long day in the sun, guests can indulge in relaxing spa treatments at the hotel’s five-treatment room spa.
The destination of Panama lends itself to a number of activities, including hiking, biking and horseback riding, all amongst Panama’s beautiful landscape. Off-property excursions to the Penonome Museum, tobacco factories, canopy zip lining at El Valle de Anton and other historical Central American landmarks can easily be arranged through the hotel concierge.
Buenaventura is a welcome addition to the already open Bristol Panama property, conveniently located in the heart of the Panama City financial district and surrounded by shopping malls, exciting nightlife, restaurants and medical centers, making it the ideal hotel for business and leisure travelers alike. Equipped with 56 distinct guest rooms and suites, the hotel also features personal 24-hour butler service and the award-winning Barandas Restaurant, as well as extensive meeting spaces and Business Center. Additionally, the hotel serves as an ideal starting point for visits to the Panama Canal, the Ruins of Old Panama and various historic Panamanian cities and craft markets.
Rates for Bristol Buenaventura range from $395 per night to $2,000 per night and the rates for Bristol Panama begin at $355 per night.
