Breakfast is available each morning, and includes à la carte, continental and vegetarian options. At the lodge you will find a restaurant serving Belgian, Caribbean and French cuisine. Vegetarian, dairy-free and vegan options can also be requested.

Very pleasant atmosphere thanks to the kind owners. The place offers access to the sea and at the same time a stay in the jungle, a generous terrace with a restaurant lies practically in the treetops. We also took advantage of the offer of dinners, we were satisfied. The owners offer to rent kayaks, snorkels with goggles. They can also arrange trips and advise on what activities can be undertaken.

Palmar Beach Lodge is located on the famous Red Frog Beach, within walking distance of the Bastimentos National Marine Park. The property features an on-site bar, restaurant, and a lounge. Wi-Fi is available for all guests. Daily yoga classes are offered in the on-site studio.

Everything was just marvelous - the cabin was very comfortable and clean (and showering with rainwater was pure bliss), the food and drinks at the restaurant were to die for, the location in the jungle by the sea is spectacular, but most importantly, the staff are just wonderful! They really make this place what it is. Cecilio stole our hearts!

Jungle Paunch provides accommodation with a kitchen, is situated on the way to Bluff Beach in Paunch. Complimentary WiFi is offered.

All units feature private terrace.

Bocas Town is 3.4 km from the lodge.

I have just finished my stay at Jungle Paunch and I really want to go back. Maxi is a great host, be will do everything to make you feel comfortable and help with whatever you need. Inside the cabins you will find the story of how Jungle Paunch was built and it is simply inspiring; a true eco lodge. the surroundings are magnificent and you can hear not only all the sounds of the jungle, but also the waves crashing in the sea very close by. an extraordinary experience, with regular visits from many animals! There is also a higher platform on the property that is excellent for meditating in the early morning and late afternoon! the Paunch area is very quiet, and Bluff beach - one of the owners’ passions - is well worth the visit. I couldn't recommend this place more. Thank you so much Maxi and Jane for your inspiring work!

This spot is amazing, right on the beach, with the sound of waves as your wake-up call. The bar has an awesome vibe, and I can't wait to return. Shoutout to the cool people here who make it even better. P.S. Bingo lady, get a life

Boasting a garden and a terrace, Jungle Bluff Beach Paradise - Jungle House provides accommodation in Paunch with free WiFi and garden views. Featuring free private parking, the lodge is in an area where guests can engage in activities such as snorkelling and cycling.

Such an exceptional location and accommodation! Being 2 minutes from the amazing beach, but at the same time living in the middle of the jungle was the top experience in Panama. Even though the house gives the natural rustic vibes, it has all the neccessary amenities and is perfectly thought through. We did not want to leave and for sure will be back again!

Looking for a lodge?

Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.

    We had an amazing stay at Ataraxia, the hosts are so welcoming and friendly. We stayed in a sea view lodge which was perfect, the balcony had lovely views of the sea and jungle. On our second day we used the complimentary kayaks and went through the mangroves seeing sloths and many birds - an incredible experience! Thank you

    Everything. The place is outstanding, surrounded by nature, sea and wildlife. The huts are lovely and clean and very comfortable. Breakfast and dinner very good and they made vegetarian menu for me. The owners Pierre and his wife are so nice and helpful. They tried to make our days there so special. I give the place 10 points over 10. I recommend this lodge if you’re gonna spend some days in Bastimentos.

    We loved the lodge on the water but unfortunately there was no path to the restaurants on the island. We took a watertaxi and it was fine :)

    The stay in the Palmar Beach Lodge was excellent. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Food and Drinks in the Restaurant were very well. (vegeterian and vegan options) The beach was awesome. Although the rip currents was very safty to swim, because there is a lifeguard and the flags shows you, were you can swim.

    The place was beyond my expectations. Ecolodge at its best, with a wonderful room and deck in front of the sea, staff hired from nearby communities, and exquisite meals and cocktails. Wifi only available after a short walk, which forces you to healthily manage your connection time... this is sustainable tourism for real!

    the Palmar lodge clearly benefits from its location but forgets that it should also cater for its guests. rooms are nice, yet expensive for what you get
