Bristol Buenaventura

Located in the upscale planned community of Buenaventura on Panama's Pacific coast, the Bristol Buenaventura combines a restful residential environment for business meetings, seminars, and corporate events with the leisure attractions of an incentive beach destination. The 114 luxury guest rooms, suites, and villas feature Frette linens, hardwood floors, 42-inch flat-panel TV, work desk, three dual-line phones, and wrought-iron balcony with lake or ocean views. Recreational amenities include Corotu Spa and fitness center, tennis courts, horse trails, and El Faro Club House with two outdoor pools, cabanas, snorkeling, scuba, and watercraft.

Bristol Buenaventura beckons meeting planners with seven versatile conference venues, from the 20-seat Aquadulce boardroom to the 500-capacity Grand Salon. Guests enjoy golf at nearby communities pending the August 2011 opening of Buenaventura's new Jack Nicklaus-designed 18-hole golf course.
