Dad Ibe Lodge San Blas
![]() |
Smack in the middle on the archipelago, Dad Ibe is definitely one of the tinier islands in the San Blas archipelago, but what it lacks in size it makes up in warmth and beauty. This uninhabited spot of pristine white sand offers only 3 bungalows making it a favourite for those who prefer privacy and seclusion.
Each private cabana, perched over the ocean, offers double beds, private bathrooms, and a balcony with a hammock view of the ocean and distant Panamanian rain forest. Hammocks, strung between soaring coconut trees, await to cradle you, while just steps away calm, warm, waters gently caress the shore of an extraordinary beach.
Three daily meals are offered at Dad Ibe’s ocean front restaurant. Generous portions of freshly caught and spectacularly prepared seafood are available for all meals including fish, prawns and king crab indigenous to the San Blas archipelago. Lobster is available for a small additional charge, which is waived for guests staying three or more nights.
If relaxing on your own island isn’t quite enough to hold your interest just jump into the ocean and swim to one of the other two nearby islands. Don’t worry about disturbing anyone, they’re serenely uninhabited.
In case you decide to get your butt out of the hammock or off the beach Dad Ibe also offers a few tours.
