Al Natural Resort

This is one of those special spots! This was our third trip. The food is phenomenal. The location is phenomenal. The wildlife is phenomenal. The owners are beyond lovely. (If you want a fussy resort this is not the place for you!!) If you want to have quiet peaceful days, enjoy watching your kids OFF all their devices, meet fascinating people from around the world, snorkel out to reefs, watch baby turtles hatch, eat great food, sup up and down the coast line, enjoy stunning sunsets from the dock, then you will be in HEAVEN here. Meals are family style and are prepared by w needful Belgian chef. We have had some of our best nights in Panama around the table, laughing with other guests. It’s a truly unique and special vibe.

This place is one of the few places that is so untouched, pure and completely tranquil. The hotel is fantastically embedded in nature - that's where humanity has adapted to Mother Earth - and not the other way around. A characteristic that, as I said, is only very rarely found and we were very enthusiastic about it. You can also see that in the fauna: Countless animals that came to visit us there, such as many different species of monkeys, sloths, butterflies, owls and very special birds. But the underwater world was also incredibly impressive because the surrounding reef is so healthy and there are colorful fish, turtles, reef sharks, rays, starfish and much more. Even me, as not the biggest snorkel fan, had the time of my life right in front of the door. The hotel provides free kayaks so there's so much to explore and self-guided excursions like paddling through the mangroves to the nearby community. Everything is so cordial, attentive and designed with a lot of attention to detail that nothing is left to be desired. Above all, Ismael contributed to this, who sweetened our holiday from the first second. He really read our every wish from our lips and made the impossible possible. He loves what he does and he definitely lets the guests feel it. He even got fresh coconuts from the palm trees every day to pamper us as much as possible ;-) The food and catering is also stunning. My partner and I travel the world, we also love luxury accommodation and good food, but this was truly sensational! We have rarely eaten so well! In one week not one dish was repeated! Daily fresh fish, delicious salads, homemade bread and sophisticated food combinations have inspired us every day. Vincent and his excellent kitchen team conjured up culinary moments of pleasure for us and the amazing Mamacitas and cooks of the house, Mariella & Jari, simply spoiled us every day with so much passion and love. We also got to meet the owner and host Michelle. He is such a wonderful soul and his vision of the resort not only made his dream come true but also ours and we are so grateful for him for what he created there. What we liked best was that there is not internet everywhere, because that way we could switch off in a completely different way and very intensively. If you absolutely need Wifi, you will find it in one of their houses, a 10-minute walk from the main house, where we eat. (It is better to use the numerous possibilities that the hotel offers for excursions and activities on the island and around.) This is also the house where meals are taken together. Such a beautiful, familiar and unique concept, which we love and has given us wonderful friendships. We not only recommend this resort from the heart, We also will be back very soon because it's just so real, individual and special. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for this experience and the perfect stay with you! Jasmin & Linus
