$100 Million Luxury Beach Haven Debuts in Top Ranking Travel Destination with Special Introductory Rates
Playa Bonita, Republic of Panama (PRWEB) February 22, 2012
The gentrification of Panamá City’s renowned historic quarter, Casco Viejo, has contributed to the region’s panache; the once crumbling Unesco World Heritage Site has become a hotbed of art galleries, cafés and stylish boutiques. Just outside the city, experiential travelers can hike through the rainforest, visit indigenous villages, and snorkel waters off the golden shores of the Pacific Ocean.
In celebration of the hotel’s grand opening, The Westin Playa Bonita Panama is offering an exclusive “Westin Indulge Package,” which includes daily breakfast in bed, sparkling wine and strawberries upon arrival, and a late checkout of 4:00 p.m. Rates start at $285 per night for a green view room, and $295 for an ocean view room through April 3, 2012.
A luxury beach oasis, The Westin Playa Bonita Panamá breaks through traditional barriers of design to create an artful juxtaposition of Panamá’s unspoiled landscape and cosmopolitan appeal. Flanked by rainforest and golden stretch of Pacific shoreline just 20 minutes outside Panama City, the 100 million dollar Westin Playa Bonita is a secluded escape featuring 611 luxury rooms and suites, six fine dining restaurants, four bars and an ultra chic, open-air VIP Lounge on the 19th floor, which boasts panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, rainforest and Panamá Canal.
Unprecedented in the Republic of Panamá, The Westin Playa Bonita also features 62,000 square feet of meeting and event space comprised of 22 multi-purpose spaces. Additional facilities include a Westin WORKOUT® gym, three freshwater infinity edge pools, a dedicated children’s pool, and Westin Kids Club®.
“The unveiling of Panamá’s first Westin hotel is one of the most exciting developments the destination has seen in decades; one that is sure to redefine the country’s travel industry,” stated Herman Bern, President of Bern Hotels and Resorts. “The Westin Playa Bonita offers an exclusive luxury experience, which truly captures Panamá’s natural beauty and modern appeal.
