The resort is absolutely lovely! The beaches have been beautifully crafted - it's hard to believe that they are all artificial!

Angosta Beach

The beach had a pleasant view and the water was invitingly warm. However, the available space to lay down your towel was limited. Despite the presence of wooden canopies, we were unable to locate anyone to provide us with a mattress until we were leaving.

Tortuguilla Beach

8 Nikolai Petrovichov

This beach on the Caribbean side of the isthmus is a hidden gem with a system of caves nearby, perfect for both swimming and sunbathing, as well as exploring.

Nice..

Diablillo Beach

10 Kai Wexler

When venturing to this beach, exercise caution while swimming as sharp coral rocks lurk on both sides of the shoreline, concealed by the high tide. The path leading down to the beach spans approximately a quarter mile and is accompanied by the sounds of howler monkeys. The beach itself is a sight to behold with its breathtaking beauty. However, it's best to steer clear of the river leading to the beach as it can be deceptively deep. Lastly, be mindful of the park ranger's announcement that the beach closes at midnight.
