Selina Hostels at Playa Venao
The hostel is new and not finished yet, but it has a great design, is located directly at the beach and the staff is really cool. A con is that there is only one shop which has basically nothing and is really expensive; so you either have to bring your food or eat at the bar in the hostel.
The beach itself is good for surfers, but you can also enjoy the waves without a board.
There are only two (or maybe three; nobody knows) buses from Pedasí to Playa Venao: once in the morning (I think at 7) and once at 12 o'clock. It takes around 1.5 hours. Keep your eyes open and when you see the sign of the hostel, shout "(la) parada, por favor"

5/5 Excellent

"Hotel Posada Destiladeros is an undiscovered gem on the Azuela Peninsula! I enjoyed a rejuvenating 3 day stay in the Vietnam room, overlooking deserted Ocean beaches. A professional chef prepared meals with ingredients sourced locally - including fish and seafood. I watched the sunrise and sunset from my deck and walked on beaches during the day. Muy tranquilo."

3/5 Okay

Relaxing in Pedasi, Panama

"The location is private , no neighbors. Beautiful views Outdoor area and pool is excellent. Could use some new pool side chairs. They gave us fresh cocounts -delicious. We were asked to host the property dog, Baily, which was a great companion for walks and hangougts. Long beach to walk on but not adequate for swimming. In door accomodation are basic, could use some updating, especially bathrooms. The one in the kitchen is excellent. Bedrooms do not connect to a central living area. Kitchen appliances are ok, but we did not have a toaster. They provided all consumables for the week including filtered water. The property owner and support personnel were fantastic and friendly they responded to our every need. (I speak Spanish). A minor drawback was having to chain and padlock gates was we enter and leave the property. Also the only swimable beach that we found adequate was La Playita in the town of Venao about 40 min. drive. Small plaza in down town, but no major attractions . Markets and restaurants about 10 min drive from the property. "
