Cabanas Los Quetzales For True EcoTurism In You

Chiriqui

  Cabanas Los Quetzales -  Chiriqui - PanamaLos Quetzales Ecolodge, Spa, Hotel, Nature Resort

 

Cabanas Los Quetzales is a experience for those    ecotourist with ideas of tranquility and complete peace away from hustle and bustle of the big city, lights, camera, action.  If you are seeking relaxation, meditation and freedom from day to day life then Cabanas Los Quetzales  Chiriqui Panama is definitely best choice anywhere in South America and beyond.

Tucked away in the highland cloud forest, Los Quetzales Lodge & Spa is ideal for those longing to retreat from the hustle and bustle of modern living. At 7260 feet above sea level (2,200 meters), the reserve has the highest lodging facilities in the country, and lies inside the primary cloud forest of Volcan Baru National Park, which was established in 1976. The Volcan is adjacent to the 407,000 acre Parque Internacional La Amistad, which straddles Costa Rica and Panama. Our 400 hectare reserve has been protected by the private efforts of its founders in 1970.

It is our privilege to be one of the only eco-vacation resorts in Panama or Costa Rica that offers overnight accommodations inside a national park.

Our climate varies from 75 degrees F. during a sunny day to 45 degrees F. on our chilliest winter night. But the one thing about our ambiance, which amazes most visitors, is the absence of biting insects – no mosquitoes, no chiggers, not even a stray no-see-um! Fortunately our area also lacks venomous snake species.

Getting to Los Quetzales is easy. We are only 1 1/2 hours by bus from the Costa Rica border, on excellent paved roads all the way to our main hotel and headquarters in the town of Guadalupe, adjacent to Cerro Punta. From there, for those guests who wish to visit the mountainside reserve inside the Park, we provide access on a rocked road via a 4-wheel drive or horseback. Many folks also enjoy walking to the cabin area, a gentle 30 minute climb featuring mountain scenery quilted with small vegetable patches and colorful gardens in the town of 400 inhabitants. Higher up, on the way to the cabins, you’ll walk past simple friendly homes of Guaymi indians.

I takes about seven hours by bus to reach us from San Jose, Costa Rica or Panama City, Panama. Those in a hurry to slow down and relax may choose a 50 minute flight from Panama City to David, or San Jose, Costa Rica to David, Chiriqui. From David, where we can arrange transportation for our guests, the drive to Guadalupe takes about one hour and thirty minutes.   For more information write me at visitpanama.com@gmail.com  and I'd be glad to assist you.
