Very nice silent vacation. Retreat from civilization.

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Jan 12, 2020
We have ordered through booking. The name of the place was Arridup Islands, San Blas. They use different names for this place like Cabanas Nubesidub or Discover Guna Yala. I suppose that it is because of the very different opinions about this place. For us it was beautiful place. We found it at tripadvisor and read before what to expect. So rustic toilets and showers was not surprise for us. But they were clean. Simple chalets without cupboards inside and the food prepared by hosts from fish everyday also not. But the place is very beautiful. The island is approx. 150 meters long. You have small beach before the chalet. 20 meters from the island there is the small reef very nice for snoorkeling. Take your mask and fins. You can not rent them there. For 2 $ you can order beer or coconuts. They do not have anything else. Mineral water you can take from Panama. I also use ti to brush teeth. We have ordered the transfer for 80 $ per person from Panama Citi. 3 hours by jeep and 1 hour by boat. They organized for guest also the boat trip to Pelikan Island - free of charge. So before you go there be sure that silent, retreat from the civilization is what you want. If yes this is this the place for you. if not do not go there.
Date of stay: December 2019
Room Tip: Retreat from the civilization perfect for 3 - 4 days.
