Spent 3 nights at Palmar and had a fabulous, relaxing time there. We started off in a smallish 2 bed tent .. there was a slight problem with rain leakage, so we were immediately moved and upgraded to a 3 bed tent. Thank you! The food was good, the staff very friendly and helpful, the beaches are beautiful, great jungle,... More

While the tents were fully booked, I basically lived at the restaurant/bar/chairs/beach at Palmar anyway. The volunteers were lovely and friendly and got to know the guests and visitors during their stay. The family-style dinners were delicious and a great way to mingle, as well as a less pricey option. The $4-6 yoga was a fantastic value with really well-taught... More

We stayed at Palmar for three nights in April. The setting is beautiful and overall the area is well set up. Was a bit disappointed with the cleanliness though. The bathrooms were clean and tidy but the common area wasn't. The tent (private safari) was good, but not quite as large as I had expected (you can't walk around in... More

There's no way to describe what a treasure this place is! Kristin, Chris, Kat, the volunteers, everyone was so helpful and we enjoyed getting to know them all. People coming over to Red Frog Beach from Islas Bastimentos and Colon all commented on how they wish they had stayed at Palmar. From our tent with a double bed to the... More

Some friendly feedback to the management. My wife and I visited your Redfrog Beach establishment last week. A beautiful setting, great location and seemingly paradise. We were not guests, we were told by “Bocas Bound” that there were no other places to stay in the area. As tourists out for the day, walking along the beach we found you. With... More

I was here with three girlfriends and had a great time. When we arrived the tent was ready for us except for the fourth bed that we had asked for. I appreciated the foot wash bowl that was useful in decreasing the amount of sand in the cabin. It would have been great to know that we needed to bring... More

Beach front property with your own water access- clean, well maintained accommodations, and just a generally awesome place. You can tell Kristen and Chris must have done a lot of research to figure out how to create this place in the middle of a jungle on the beach, but they did it and it's amazing. The staff and the volunteers... More

We stayed 3 nights at the lodge and could not have enjoyed it more. The tents were comfy with real beds and it stayed cool at night with provided fans. The shared restrooms were always clean, and the shower offered an enjoyable refreshing way to rinse the sandy day away! The staff/volunteers were very accommodating and helpful and shared in... More

The tents do not look like the pictures on the web site. Our "luxury tent" was very moldy to the point of nausea and dirty beyond belief. The staff seemed uninterested in the needs of the guests. Each time we would ask a question they would respond with an I don't know, come back later and ask so and so.... More
