The Buenaventura Golf & Beach Resort
Panama
The Buenaventura Golf & Beach Resort combines Panama's Pacific coast with an eighteen-hole Jack Nicklaus golf course. The layout moves through undulating fairways, white-sand bunkers and water hazards, with corotú trees marking the landscape. Rooms, suites and villas mix contemporary design with locally made details such as handwoven chunga baskets and handcrafted cushions. Villas add a kitchen, terrace and private pool, giving families or groups more space to settle into the coastal setting. El Faro Beach Club has five pools close to the beach, while a separate resort pool and children's pools broaden the choices for swimming. Corotú Spa, restaurants and the clubhouse provide alternatives to a day on the course. Golfers can also use the practice facilities and stop at Hoyo 19 for food and a drink overlooking the fairways.
