This is one of the most beautiful and fun places I've ever been. The staff/owners were so friendly and courteous. The food was excellent and served family style with other guests who were very nice. (This was a few years ago, but I just joined Trip Advisor and wanted to comment.) The trip to Punta Marenco Lodge was half the... more

Our bungalow was breezy, clean and comfortable with a deck with hammock and view overlooking the ocean and Cano Island to the west (sunsets were gorgeous!). Meals and hospitality were excellent.

The Macaws were especially spectacular.... more

Punta Marenco possesses many good qualities, but unfortunately, in the end, the bad issues ruined the overall experience. Good Things: 1. Quaint setting with beautiful views (location, location, location). 2. Everyone was VERY nice. 3. Tours and lunches, if you made it on them, were decent. Bad Things: EXTREMELY DISORGANIZED TOURS!!!!! It will be easiest just to tell you of... more

We just returned from Punta Marenco Lodge and have very mixed feelings about the place. First the good: It is a beautiful setting, nice staff, very reasonably priced, decent food, cold showers were fine, the lack of a dock and the hike up the hill to the lodge didn't bother us. Some rooms are nicer than others, do not stay... more

We stayed at Punta Marenco Lodge for 4 nights with our two children (5 and 11). Our experience was incredible. The food was fantastic, with lots of variety. The staff, especially Carlos and Fernando, were wonderful. They helped us celebrate my wife's Birthday and it is one she will never forget. The activities and the wildlife observation possibilities were truly... more
