Why Stay
Punta Caracol's concept is an Acqua-Lodge within a truly untouched environment. Surrounded by the Caribbean Sea, along the coral reef coast, sit the unique and rustic cabins, built on stilts over water and covered with a palm leaf roof. Natural materials such as leafs, bamboo, wild cane were used in construction and make you feel closer to nature than ever. Enjoy the sunset and dolphin watching from your private terrace. Choose the master suite for a spectacular panoramic view and personal hammocks.
Why Wander
Get your snorkelling gear and kayaks and explore the rich coral reef around the lodge. Ten minutes away is the Starfish Beach, a beautiful place that gets its name for being a home to lots of large Starfish. Visit Dolphin bay, and another great snorkelling spot called Cayo Coral. Take a day trip to one of the numerous virgin islands of the Bocas del Toro archipelago. Hike in the rainforest and make friends with the sloths and the scarlet red frogs - native only to Bocas. Stay on land and visit the chocolate farms or the bat caves.
