We spent three nights at Yandup last week. We were a group of five-three adults with two small children, aged 4 and 6. We had the most wonderful experience! The accommodations were lovely-much more than we expected after reading the reviews here. We were happy...More
Spent 2 days in the waterfront cabin with my daughter and it was delightful. This is not an ordinary resort, you are getting an upscale version of the Kuna Indians' life and it's less luxurious than most tourists are used to. The plane flies whenever...More
Although my friend and I only stayed 24 hours (yes unfortunately flight was delayed so it was very sad when we had to leave), we loved every second of it. If we could have re-scheduled we would have stayed another 2 to 3 nights. We...More
The lodge is on an islet of its own, 10 minutes from Playon Chico. The setting is beautiful and the rooms are just right - spacious, clean and over the lapping water. The establishment has fantasic potential, but it is not well run.

- there is no bar, but there is an open air restaurant where you can ask for beer. I don't know if they have other alcohol. I recommend you buy a bottle of alcohol in Panama City and take it with you in your luggage.
- I do not know about the beach on the island where the lodge is located, but the beach on the nearby island (where they take you to snorkel) is shallow for about 15 meters, and then there is a deep drop-off.
- I did not see lizards, but depending on the weather, there are some mosquitos and sand fleas. I recommend you take insect repellant.

The main problem is Air Panama's website which seems to be impossible to reach from abroad. But the lodge can make the arrangements if you ask them. Expect to pay around $150 rt
