A rustic boutique lodge on a stretch of unspoilt coastline with a lush rainforest backdrop. 

Located on Bluff Beach, one of the most impressive beaches in the archipelago – in a wild, untamed way – and an important nesting site for marine turtles, The Hummingbird has a real off-the-grid feel to it.

There are only six rooms, each one thoughtfully designed with handcrafted king size beds and furniture, as well as a private deck with views through the tropical foliage towards the sea. Advanced solar equipment is used to produce its electricity and water is harnessed through a filtered rain catchment.

A variety of water-based activities are on offer but for those guests just wanting to relax there’s a swimming pool and plenty of hammocks, as well as a bar and restaurant.

What our clients say

  • Top experiences in Panama - going through the canal and exploring Panama City and surrounding area. I was surprised to find that Panama is not just the Canal Zone!

  • Highlights: “Locks on the Panama canal and Panamax vessels up close.”

    MC, Fulham Nov 2012
  • "Bocas del Toro was great fun and frivolous and a great journey there by boat."

    GS, Bushey Jun 2013
  • We didn't realise the partial canal transit would be in such a big boat with loads of other tourists - not a problem, but would have been good for this…

    NF, Tunbridge Wells Apr 2013
  • We enjoyed all locations which were very diverse and equally memorable. 

    IB, Chesterfield Apr 2017
  • Most memorable experience: “Tranquillo bay was a cut above everything else.   Staying on Waidup (near Isla Tigre) was also special.”
