I can't even begin to explain how magical and perfect this place was. From the urban scene in Panama City, Panamá Province, Panama, I surprised my little tribe with our next stop in coffee country: Valle Escondido Resort, Golf & Spa. in the mountains of Boquete, Chiriqui Province, Panama! I knew it would be nice cause I did a ton of research to find the right place, but from the wedding anniversary private dinner on our own terrace by the river that runs through the place and finding a very hard to get hold of bottle of Ron Abuelo Centuria on extremely short notice to the stay, staff especially Abdul, FOOD, the ambience, the ARCHITECTURE, and customer service even after we checked out were EXCELLENT! 1 to 5 stars they deserve 10! We were sorry to leave but wouldn't be able to get our money back from the next place with a cancellation less than 30 days lol. Abdul almost made me cry with the wedding anniversary welcome in our room, he really went above and beyond he's amazing! And someone surprised us with more years the next day, I can't tell if it was staff or the owner who Whatsapp-ed me personally with well wishes for our anniversary, but we were so surprised.
We didn't do a coffee tour while in Chiriqui to experience the most expensive coffee in the world, the Gesha (pronounced like geisha), which is at least $100 USD per POUND on the world market, but the coffee everywhere we've been in Panama has been excellent and the one here at Valle Escondido tastes the best.
