My mother is Panamanian, I have been there twice, both times I went to Contadora Island, it is absolutely beautiful! I even met the president when I was on that island, in fact back in the late 70's or 1980 the Shaw of Iran had a house on Contadora which is one of the places he was hiding. Pretty interesting.

Contadora Island is beautiful; another interesting fact: it have the only officlal nudist beach on Panama! Beaches are white sands, and the island is not too crowded. <BR>Royal Decameron is an all-inclusive Resortvery popular here in Panama, with great beaches, and a great deal considering the relative low price. <BR>If you have the time, I would recommend also a visit to Bocas del Toro, on the Caribbean side. For some useful information about Bocas and other places in Panama I would recommend panamareservation.com, the local directory of hotels. Good luck!

<BR> I was in Panama last month. I spent one day at decameron. It is a very nice all inclusive resort. A week there may be too long. Isla Contradora is very nice and relaxing. If you get a chance the Atlantic side of Panama is also beautiful. It's a great place to explore. A couple of resorts on the Atlantic side are: Banana's, Melia, and in Panama city is a nice eco- tourism hotel. I can't think of the name right now. I travel there frequently. Panama is a wonderful place.
