Our take
I recommend La Paloma Lodge to families and travelers who put comfort and convenience first in a remote setting. Included meals and air-conditioned rooms are real advantages in Bahía Drake, and the ocean views and pool add to the stay. Evenings are built around relaxing and the natural surroundings, so anyone who wants nightlife or many dining options outside the lodge may find it too quiet. The 9.6 rating from 105 reviews points to a very well-liked lodge.
- ✓Take advantage of the complimentary meals; they simplify your stay and offer a chance to connect with other guests.
- ✓Explore the nearby Río Agujitas on foot for birdwatching and a glimpse of the local ecosystem.
- ✓Pack light, breathable clothing and good walking shoes, as the lodge encourages outdoor exploration and beach walks.
