I have never had such a wonderful experience. And, can you imagine our surprise having come from a rented house with A.C. and an inground pool, to landing on an airstrip in the middle of the jungle?

Think Gilligan's Island type accommodations with running water and someone to cook your meals. The cabanas were well maintained and functional - doors with no locks and windows with no screens.

This eco resort (formerly known as the Dolphin Lodge) is operated by the Kuna Indians of the San Blas Islands, just off the coast of Panama. Six of us flew from Panama City (about 40 minutes or so) and landed at the Aeropuerto de Mamitupu--a tiny little landing strip with a bamboo hut. We were met by our Kuna guide... more
