Set to debut in early 2025 as part of The Unbound Collection by Hyatt, this story-worthy hotel serves as the second Hotel La Compañia property to open in the La Compañia Hotels & Resorts portfolio.
Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H) and Shebandowan Holdings, S.A. today announced plans for Hotel La Compañía del Valle in Valle de Anton, Panamá, slated to open in early 2025. Located approximately 50 miles west of its sister hotel, Hotel La Compañía in Casco Antiguo, this new thought-provoking hotel will allow guests and World of Hyatt members to explore a new destination in central Panamá surrounded by biodiversity, mountains, and lush landscape. At its core, Hotel La Compañia del Valle will serve as an art and wellness house, inclusive of a one-of-a-kind sculpture park with art pieces around the corridors and hotel public areas offering natural healing spa treatments and experiences.
El Valle de Anton is a mountain town nestled in the crater of an extinct volcano. The town is approximately 2,000 ft. above sea level, so guests will enjoy crisp mountain air and temperatures, making El Valle de Anton the perfect backdrop to hike and explore. Hotel La Compañía del Valle will join The Unbound Collection by Hyatt, a complementary property to Hotel La Compañía in Casco Antiguo. Guests of Hotel La Compañía will have access to Hotel La Compañía del Valle’s amenities including concierge services with transportation options to choose from, making it the ideal day trip option for a restorative retreat.
The hotel’s art and wellness house will be a one-of-a-kind sculpture park symbolizing five elements – fire, water, earth, metal, and wood – that features 200 distinctive pieces displayed around the gardens and public areas. Additionally, at Elysium Spa, guests can expect an 18,000 sq.ft. spa with Roman baths, chocolate and wine therapy, a saltwater pool and a sundeck overlooking La India Dormida, a mountain with a ridge that is shaped like a sleeping woman’s body. Guests will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the destination with a variety of activities offered onsite including an activity and racquet center offering hiking tours, e-bikes, horseback riding, tennis, paddle and pickleball courts. Some of the most sought-after mountain hikes nearby are La India Dormida, Cerro Gaital, Cerro La Silla and Pozo Azul where you might see sloths, night monkeys, porcupines, and Panamanian golden frogs.
“Following the successful opening of Hotel La Compañia, we’re taking the elevated experience to El Valle de Anton. Hotel La Compañía del Valle further expands Hyatt’s brand presence in Panamá in a destination that is truly a hidden gem,” said Camilo Bolaños, senior vice president, Latin America & Caribbean, Hyatt. “We’re thankful for the collaboration with Shebandowan Holdings, S.A. and look forward to what the team has in store.”
“We are delighted to further strengthen our relationship with Hyatt with the forthcoming Hotel La Compañía del Valle,” said Fidel Reyes, Managing Director, La Compañia Hotels & Resorts. “Panamá continues to see a strong trend in tourism and ecotourism and following the success of Hotel La Compañia in Casco Antiguo, we’re excited to unveil Hotel La Compañía del Valle, which will mark the first international-branded hotel in the countryside of Panamá at El Valle de Anton,” added Chris Lenz, CEO and Founder, La Compañía Hotels & Resorts.
Inspired by a Tuscan retreat, Hotel La Compañía del Valle is nestled in an extinct volcanic crater and embraces the beauty of El Valle de Anton. Blending art, wellness, nature and organic healing to create a sanctuary with a purpose, the hotel will offer 70 spacious rooms and suites spread across four different wings with balconies and terraces overlooking the mountains, garden courtyard or surrounding spaces.
Hotel La Compañía del Valle will offer three unique food and beverage concepts rooted in FUEGO (the art of fire), TERRA (the soul of earth), and TIEMPO (the art of travel). Each concept will present cuisine aligning with what each restaurant symbolizes, offering fresh and seasonal ingredients suitable for all. For those seeking an unforgettable event, Hotel La Compañia del Valle will offer the perfect canvas for your celebration, including three indoor meeting spaces and the unique Plaza Auditorium to enhance freedom of creativity.
