Yandup Island Lodge

Top choice in Comarca de Guna Yala


Accommodations at this lodge are simple but comprise 10 lovely octagonal thatched-roof cabins with cold-water bathrooms; a half-dozen of the cabins sit right over the water. Light comes from solar panels and water from the mainland. The island’s grassy grounds, palm shade and small but powdery beach might be reason enough to just stay put.

Guests can be catered for with vegetarian meals at the large and breezy restaurant-bar, with more seating in a thatched bohio at the end of a very long pier. Tailored excursions include cultural visits as well as the usual snorkeling and hiking.
