The
Punta Brava Lodge Complex comprises
30000
m2 and two modern beach lodges in an idyllic oceanfront setting.
Best of all, we offer guests direct access to the breathtaking Santa
Catalina Reef Break. An ideal "couples" getaway, the complex
features a main 2-story lodge with
3 bedrooms, a kitchen and
a restaurant/bar with upstairs and downstairs terraces. The main lounge
area offers guests
Direct TV and a private telephone-the only
telephone in the area.
The second lodge building features five private cabanas, and each offers
a private bathroom and air conditioning.
Each cabana--individually named in dedication to various islands known
for their reef breaks-can sleep up to six (the actual number may be
less, depending on total overall occupancy).
Their comfortable size
gives ample extra space for stowing surfboards, scuba gear, fishing
tackle, and personal items.
The food prepared by our restaurant's resident chef features generous
portions of international cuisine, and the bar offers a place to relax
with panoramic views of the Pacific. A 1 1/2-hour drive to
the provincial capital of Santiago will satisfy cravings for fast
food (McDonald's, KFC, etc.), and the city also offers bars,
discos, night clubs, a cinema, and even a Dairy Queen. There are two
"pool vehicles" on hand to shuttle guests to and from Santiago
or other nearby towns for the evening.
Adventure seekers have many options to choose from. Tours for surf
seekers can be arranged by bike, boat or helicopter, on the mainland
or to the nearby islands. Or you can enjoy sportfishing at Coiba Island,
considered among the top 3 sportfishing sites in the world. Your spouse
or "significant other," if not a surfer, may be interested
skin in diving and get a close-up look at the primitive nearby islands
and coral reef--the only one in the Pacific.
The reef is unique because it was formed millions of years ago in
the Atlantic, and remained after the isthmus of Panama completely
closed. Review your options and indicate your interest(s) in advance
(use the Reservations & Booking page). We'll take care of the
rest.
