Valió la Pena ("It was Worth it") is the sixth Spanish album and eighth studio album by Marc Anthony. Anthony is reunited with Producer Sergio George on their first collaborative work since 1995's Todo A Su Tiempo album.

The album contains seven songs from Anthony's previous album, Amar Sin Mentiras, in a salsa arrangement and adds Rafael Hernández's classic "Lamento Borincano." Like the previous album, Valió la Pena also peaked #1 at Top Latin Albums.
