Islas Secas

Isla Cavada, Panama

Islas Secas occupies Isla Cavada within a private 14-island archipelago in Panama’s Gulf of Chiriquí, about 20 miles off the Pacific coast. The resort concentrates its accommodation on one island: casitas and the four-bedroom Casa Cavada residence, while the official site says 13 islands remain untouched. Days are oriented around the surrounding marine environment, with diving, snorkeling, boating, wildlife watching and trails on Isla Cavada. Reaching the resort involves a scheduled flight from Panama City to its private airstrip.

Sofitel Legend Casco Viejo

Panama City, Panama

CityHistoric

On the Pacific waterfront in Casco Viejo, this 159-room hotel occupies the former Union Club, a building that opened in 1917. Its address puts you in Panama City’s historic district, where plazas, museums and nightlife sit among the old quarter’s streets. The experience centers on the contrast between a restored landmark and contemporary hotel comforts, with many rooms looking toward the ocean, historic neighborhood or plaza. It’s a city stay shaped by both the building’s past and its coastal setting.
