Partner Company of Visit Panama
Evenia Hotels is an independent, family-run Spanish hotel group with resort and city properties across Spain, the Pyrenees and Central America. Combining Mediterranean hospitality with professional service, the group caters to leisure travellers, groups and MICE clients alike.
Its Panama portfolio brings this experience to one of Central America's most dynamic destinations through two complementary properties.
Gran Evenia Panamá is a 5-star hotel in the financial district of Panama City (El Cangrejo), opened in 2022, with 100 contemporary rooms set around a light-filled courtyard, a rooftop pool and sky-bar with skyline views, a wellness and fitness area, and its signature restaurant El Jardín de Gaudí. For meetings and events it offers five function rooms for congresses and celebrations, fully soundproofed and equipped with the latest technology, with flexible layouts hosting up to 150 people for conventions, incentives, banquets and gala dinners — supported by full-service staff, professional event and catering planners, high-speed wireless access, a complete range of audiovisual equipment and a business centre. The restaurant El Jardín de Gaudí can also be privatised for events of up to 40 people, banquet or cocktail style, led by Chef Carles Guitart. Its location — around a 10-minute ride from the ATLAPA Convention Center and next to the Multiplaza Pacific mall — makes it an ideal base for corporate travel and incentive programmes.
Gran Evenia Bijao is an all-inclusive beachfront resort on Panama's Pacific Riviera, in Santa Clara (Playa Blanca), set among tropical gardens and the calm shores of the Bay of Panama. Beyond its leisure appeal, it is a fully equipped events venue: it offers six different event spaces with capacity for up to 600 people, versatile function rooms fitted with state-of-the-art technology, an experienced events team and exclusive catering — ideal for large conventions, incentive groups, product launches and dream beachfront celebrations.
Together, these two properties let planners pair a professional urban meetings hotel (up to 150 delegates) with a large-capacity beach resort (up to 600) in a single destination — an attractive proposition for the North American MICE and leisure markets.
