This was the highlight of our trip to Panama. I read another review that dissed Aroma Island, but it was my favorite. A thatch hut on the beach with sand floor. Minimalist Paradise. You keep the door shut with a couch shell. The folks that lived there were so kind and it had the best food of the three islands we stayed on. (Order the Traditional food). The other islands had rustic, rough cabins. It rained everyday we were there but usually at night. The thatched hut didn't leak, but the cabins did and the metal roofs were noisy. I loved it all, but think of it like camping and bring the minimum things you need. We brought water, swimsuits, towels, toiletries, phone power bank, waterproof phone case, flash light, water shoes, and waterproof bag. Conserve fresh water and don't bring or leave trash. Don't put toilet paper in the toilet, put it in the basket next to the toilet. The toilets and showers are functional. There weren't any bugs. We visited different islands everyday, snorkeled, swam, and flopped on pristine beaches. The sand was powdery white, the sea was shades of blue and green. Everything was photogenic.

We really enjoyed the overall trip. It is a beautifull part of the world. Transport to the location was nice. Communication was good from the organiser Sadly some small details let the experience down. For instance construction rubbish were present next to our accommodation The worst part we felt completely let down from day 4. We paid for 4 days ,re received a message saying that We could leave first thing in the morning or stay on the beach. Bearing in mind you pay a good price for 4 days there are no transport not even food on day four. We should have booked 3 days not 4 the fourth day was a joke as I said nobody cares for you . We got picked up and dropped us off.Driver again was very good Food was nice apart from breakfast which usually consisted of dry eggs .

We went a 4 day 3 night excursion and it most definitely was an experience of a lifetime, my girlfriend was the one who wanted to go on this journey and I wasn’t too sure about it, but now all said and done I’m really glad to have experienced it and most definitely recommend it

I went March for 3 nights. If you are up for basics, on sandy desert islands, away from home comforts this is absolute heaven. Eg this is not a hotel. It is basic shelters on a beautiful desert island. There is a new road just complete (March 2024) from Panama City so it’s not bumpy like the last reviews say….but it is very windy. Have faith in the process. You will never know what is happening or where you will go - it will not be islands as listed on the itinerary but you won’t be disappointed… so…. relax, get to your most chilled place and know that someone will bring a boat round and shout your name at some point and all will be well. We went to 3 islands a day and slept on a different one each night. One had no power, one you poured water down the toilet to flush but that was more that I expected. Some had power and flushing toilets. Peaceful heaven… day trippers come onto the island for 2/3 hours then leave it just to your group. I would not recommend this for day trippers- it is too far a journey.. stay at least a night, 2 if you can and 3 was great. If you need detailed plans day to day this ain’t for you. If you can let go and go with the flow I have never been anywhere more beautiful. You are safe. Tou will be fed chiecken and rice/ fish and rice/ breakfast eggs…You will have food but bring own water and a few snacks from the gas stop on the way. Most places you can buy water and beer and Coca Cola. And even cocktails at some. At this time of year you only need swimsuit shorts and something to cover up from the sun. It is hot at night so do not need anything warm at this time of year. Some swimming shoes useful for snorkelling around sunken wrecks or one of the rocky islands. Because you are largely in the water and travelling by the local boats you will be wet all the time so just wear your swimsuit and a clever up. . You don’t need anything here. It will only be sandy and wet.. Leave your suitcases at your hotel. Most have free storage is you ask. You have to climb in and out of the boats often from the shore/ the water … if you ask loud enough before you set off they will put a ladder in boat which really helps but we didn’t get that til day 3. But we all helped eachother in and out. No mosquitoes on islands. Bring power bank cos you’ll want to take a lot of photos. You’ll see clear water and amazing underwater wildlife. If there was some information that would have made things better but we learnt there is none and you’ll only find out what is happening when something is happening but it works!!! Bring waterproof phone case and bring Colombian pesos you may want drinks, or to buy things from local tribes. Probably the best thing I have ever done.

The car trip from Panama City to Carti Port was approx 3 1/2 hours. The beginning and end of the ride was smooth. The middle was very bumpy - TAKE Dramamine for motion sickness. The first night at Aroma Island was in no small words - shocking - for those used to AC and towels. Hut with Dirt floors but had a bed. My kids ended having fun with the experience but be ready. The second night at Aguca Island was really nice. Above ground lodging and just cool all around. The 3rd night at Perro Chico had electricity and fans which made sleeping so much better. At All the islands, you mostly have to take turns using the common shared but private showers. The food is the same throughout, chicken, fish and sometimes octopus or shrimp. Food is good. Bring snacks from the mainland to supplement. Bring $1s and $5s to buy water, soda and beers. The day trips to the natural pool, sunken ship, native islands and various coral reefs were amazing. They provide snorkeling gear. Pack light, bring soap and shampoo. Leave the sneakers at home or in the suitcase. Aqua socks, crocs or flip-flops all are better. Bring a water proof bag. Order a quick-dry micro fiber towel from Amazon and bring it with you. It will double as a beach towel, bath towel and blanket (this is my wife telling me to share this). Bottom line: if you are looking to do some different in a stunning scenic location - this is the place. Be prepared to go back in modern time to basic living conditions. The Kuna people are so nice but very reserved. The guides are outgoing and fun. My wife and 3 teenagers, niece and I will never forget their time here!

It was amazing 4 days. The islands are like from different world. Beautiful nature, warm people, good local food. The activities were amazing. You could try many varied things like paddling or snorkeling. We loved that part of our trip. They were also very well planned - they took part of the day, leaving the other part to rest. The logistics was also great. The boat pilots knew precisely who should go where and at what time.
