Good Samaritans at Kuna Yala 229Rita

We were motoring to Kuna Yala and our engine upped and died near reefs close to Isla Porvenir.It quickly became untenable to stay onboard and we found ourselves stranded without any ready cash and no cash machines at hand. The only hotel was Hotel Porvenir...

Amazing experience Barbie L

We came by boat, but you can come by air as well. There is an airstrip on the island. The hotel is rustic. We were provided with a large room with double bed and bunk beds if needed. Our own bathroom with shower. Cold water, but with the heat, you do not need hot water. Very refreshing after a long day.
