C'est à se demander si le Panama se limite au "Hôtel Royal Decameron" !!
Tous les posts ou presque sont sur ce sujet ! Il doit bien y avoir d'autres hôtels dans ce pays, non ?
Le Panama, c'est aussi les San Blas, Bocas del Toro, la ville de Panama et plein d'autres endroits à découvrir !!
D'accord, ce ne sont pas des endroits où on est en "tout compris" mais les prix sont plutôt abordables !
Regardez par exemple sur Bocas del Toro, nous avons passé une super semaine au Tesoro Escondido, un Eco Lodge, certes rustique mais tellement sympa et dépaysant ! (500$ la semaine pour 2 personnes dans un bungalows au bord de la mer avec 2 plages privées et une plage déserte de 7kms à 5mn !)
Il en existe plein d'autres dans la région.
Ayant souvent voyagé en tout inclus moi aussi, je ne vais pas vous blamer mais sincerement, ca vaut le coup de tenter un peu l'aventure !
😉😄
C'est probablement parce que les billets d'avion sont plus coûteux si on ne prends pas un forfait avec hotel. C'est très avantageux, du moins en partance du Québec.
c'est vrai, mais il est aussi vrai qu'il y a plein d'endroits trés agréables, auxquels les forfaits tout inclu de ce genre d'hotels ne donnent pas accés.
San Blas, Las Perlas, Bocas del Toro, la région des Terres Hautes de Chiriqui .....
Et finalement, avec ce genre de forfaits, pour ne pas "bronzer idiot" pendant une semaine, vous devez acheter des excursions complémentaires, pour quand meme voir quelque chose du pays, et cela finit par augmenter la note.

Oui en effet, ça peut finir par coûter cher. Je serai au Decameron le 5 janvier prochain. Et nous comptons bien sortir de l'hotel mais pas avec les tours organisés, plus avec les bus locaux et en taxi. Avez vous des conseils à me donner sur nos possibilités de visites et d'excursions ? Nous n'avons pas peur de passer du temps dans transport et nous avons prévu passser une nuit ou deux en dehors de l'hotel.
Bonjour Caroline, pour voyager par nous même au Panama, nous louons souvent une voiture, environ 50$US/24 H ...c'est moins cher que le transport en commun pour les 4 personnes de ma famille ... Je te conseille de visiter la Vallée d'anton, un ancien volcan de 35000 ans il y a des paysages splendides ...Aussi à Proximité du RD il y a la petite ville de Pénonomé ou ''pay no money '' telle, emt les prix sont bas ....BYE et bon voyage j'y serai à nouveau 6ìème fois du 29 au 12, , , donc une semaine ensemble ...je suis le maniaque de lapêche là-bas très facile à reconnaîttre
Dorochris, plutôt d'accord avec toi !! d'autant plus que ces systèmes all-inclusive encouragent un tourisme de masse non respectueux de la nature et de l'environnement de ces pays où des hôtels énormes envahissent les si belles plages que l'on recherche ensuite ailleurs désespérément... y'a qu'à voir Cancun !🏴☠️
I’d like to book an all-inclusive trip next April. My criteria: 1) no sargassum, 2) 4 stars or higher, 3) ability to snorkel right from the hotel beach, and 4) safe.
Hey, I’d like to know which hotel in the south doesn’t force you to wake up at 4 AM just to reserve a shady chair, whether it’s at the beach or the pool.
Hi,
For my husband's 50th birthday, we're going to Mombasa for 10 days and 8 nights in March 2026.
I found a hotel, the Kappa Club Crystal Bay Resort, and online reviews for this hotel recommend a guide named Omar. I contacted him via WhatsApp, and he's offering a 2-day, 1-night safari in Tsavo East, a "blue safari," and a Marafa Canyon day trip for 400 € per person.
I’m asking for help from people who’ve already done these excursions because I have no idea what these offers entail.
Thank you for any advice you can give me about this trip.

Hi everyone, I’m writing here because I’m really torn—I want to go on a trip. A vacation? 10 to 12 days, maybe 14 days. Starting March 14th. I’m in a wheelchair but completely independent. I was thinking of going to Martinique, but apparently, the hotels aren’t all-inclusive, which might be a hassle. If you have any advice, that’d be great. Otherwise, I was considering Mexico—a long-time dream. At an all-inclusive hotel with accessibility on one level (since I’m independent but in a wheelchair). Do you know of any nice, budget-friendly hotels with activities in Mexico? Or Zanzibar is also an option for me, same idea.
Thanks in advance for your help! If you have any tips, that would be amazing so I can finally make up my mind and plan my trip without too much stress. I’m looking ahead so I have plenty of time. Feel free to ask questions if you’d like. Thanks for your feedback, have a great evening!
Hi everyone,
happy to be back on this site.
I’m tired of spending hours and hours searching for all-inclusive hotels for my first trip to Mexico to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary.
Can anyone recommend 5 or 6 hotel names that meet the following criteria? (I’m not too picky, lol)
1. All-inclusive
2. Adults-only
3. Beautiful beach and pool
4. Hotel for relaxing (no "factory hotels")
5. One-week stay in February 2026
6. A nice hotel (3 or 4 stars) but no need for an ultra-palace
Oh, and I almost forgot the main thing 😉: budget between 3500 € and 4000 € for two, including flights from Montreal-Mexico-Montreal.
Thanks to all of you for your recommendations!

I’m looking into November (first, will it be warm enough for snorkeling in Sharm El Sheikh?) and especially for feedback on hotels. I’ve read that the clientele is mostly Italian or Russian. Are there any French-speaking hotels—or at least mixed ones?
We’re a retired couple and are looking for a hotel around 1,000 € per week.
We’ll be in Cairo beforehand and will take a domestic flight.
Thanks in advance.
We’re thinking of booking an "all-inclusive" trip so we don’t have to worry too much... for a week at the beginning of next September, but we’re torn between several destinations: Crete? Cyprus? Sicily? Sardinia? The only thing we’re really looking for is sunshine. Thanks in advance for any tips you can share!
Hi there,
I’m planning a stay at the Sian Kan in the Riviera Maya and was wondering if anyone’s been there recently. If so, are the location, welcome, services, and food still as excellent as they used to be? I’ve heard that since the train between Cancun and Tulum was built, things might have gone downhill.
Thanks for your feedback!

Hi there, I’m a 43-year-old woman planning to travel solo in early March. I’m not really into "commercial resorts," but if I find a place that fits my criteria, I might be interested. To add to the info in the title, I’m open to various activities, but ideally, it’d include snorkeling, hiking, dance (every evening if possible!), group tours, etc. I’d love to meet people (not necessarily a man—just people in general!). I’m not necessarily aiming for the cheapest resort, but since it’s spring break week and everything’s already pricier, 5-star options are probably out of the question. Thanks!
Hello!
What a pleasure to be back on Voyage Forum!
We’ll be in Venice from March 20th to 24th, and I’m looking (for two couples) for a hotel close to St. Mark’s Square—my husband can’t walk long distances. For four nights with breakfast, our budget is around 1,400 € per couple. To avoid too much walking for him, I’d also prefer a hotel where we could potentially eat dinner in the evenings.
If anyone has any recommendations, thank you in advance to those who reply!
We’re planning a week-long trip to Iceland to see the Northern Lights.
We’re looking at staying from March 22nd to 30th: will we still be able to see the Northern Lights, or is it too late in the season?
We found a deal on Voyage Privé that seems like a good price, with a hotel in Reykjavik. If we rent a car, are there any interesting sites we can visit during the day, since we’re tied to returning to Reykjavik every night—or else we’d lose our nights at the hotel!
Hi,
I was planning a trip to Hurghada at the end of March, but it's the end of Ramadan.
Some people are telling me I should avoid it.
What do you think?
Thanks
Hi
I can’t manage to get in touch directly with one of the hotels in Prachuap...
like Prachuap Grand Hotel or Prachuap Beach Hotel...
has anyone been there recently?
or have any info?
Thanks everyone...
Hi there,
We’re heading to Argentina and Chile in February 2025. I’d love to know if it’s recommended to book accommodations (hotels, guesthouses, etc.) in advance, especially in Patagonia? Thanks for your tips!
Hi everyone,
I’d like to book 2 nights at a camp inside Etosha (Halali).
However, online, I’ve found two sites for making this reservation:
The first is the Etosha National Park site: https://etoshanationalpark.co.za
You can’t pay online there—you just submit a reservation request (enquiry).
The second is the NWR (Namibia Wildlife Resorts) site: https://www.nwr.com.na, where you *can* pay online.
Is the latter one reliable?
Thanks so much for your tips!
