Within the Santa María residential development east of central Panama City, The Santa Maria, a Luxury Collection Hotel & Golf Resort, Panama City overlooks an 18 hole golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus. Rooms and suites combine dark timber, patterned textiles and references to Panamanian craft, with balconies and course views varying by category. Mestizo serves Panamanian and international dishes, The Grill House focuses on seafood and steaks, and the deli handles pastries and coffee. Leisure spaces extend from an outdoor pool to treatment rooms and a gym. Tocumen International Airport is around 14 kilometres away, while Casco Viejo and the city’s waterfront districts require a road journey west.
