Hotel Porvenir

I do not understand what these people are talking about, I stayed at Hotel Porvenir several times during my assignment in Panama. I felt it was one of the most relaxing places I have ever been the people were great and the food was excellent. I loved diving in the reefs. I became friends with the Kuna Indians that lived on those islands.

I’m a tourist operator in Panama through a Helicopter Tours and Charter Company, so I often take my clients to the San Blas Islands.  I usually land at El Porvenir, and my clients leave for the smaller more popular islands and I usually stay with my helicopter and have lunch at The Hotel El Porvenir Restaurant.  The place is very simple and rustic, and yes, run down in some places, but the owners and employees make you feel like family.  At the restaurant, the quality of the ingredients and the constantly improving touch of Gabriel, the Chef, make these $8-12 dollar lunches a great value in such a remote place.  Yesterday, I was fortunate enough to have lobster at a ridiculously low price for its size and freshness.  I haven’t stayed here at night, but the quality of the food, the value and its people are hard to find elsewhere.  Thank you Anthony, Gabriel and Geroncio for your passion and for doing a great job for Panama.  Fernando

Around one hour from main land on a small vissers boat, you will arrive the island El Porvenir. This small place with a back to basic sleeping place is just going back in time. The owner voor 31 years, but most his grandson Antony gives you the feeling to be home and learns you everything about the culture and way of live of the Kunas. 
He speaks no English but remember we are in a reservoir of an other culture. They speak there own language but you will see you will manage. The rooms are really simple but use your positive mind and you will enjoy your stay. The food is very good, the vis is fresh and from there is perfect to visit a few other bounty island of the natural swimming pool. 1 max 2 nights are recommended

My wife and I want to experience a moment out of the lights of the city. And I can say this spa give you a look of how we get where we are now. Ok San Blas is beautiful all islands give you piece. in the hotel have a basic service local food by the Indian of the guna. If you want to try something different. I was happy about this place traveling there is long but ad to the experience lol ask for the bread at the hotel delicious go

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 .We approached the managers and told them  of our plight and believe it or not we were graciously allowed to  stay there on full board with our two dogs for four days until we obtained help from friends and my husband was able to make  a trip to the mainland.The food was simple but excellent especially the fresh seafood dinners and new house baked bread.Rooms were not cleaned daily but we had mosquito nets,ensuite bathroom and  sufficient fresh rainwater and we were a step across from the  ocean and the breathtaking vistas of KY were all around us. Very peaceful and ideal for a nature lovers romantic holiday in a simple setting far away from the madding crowd and the remorseless technology.We cannot really express our gratitude to the managers and staff for their unstinting hospitality and kindness. A million thank yous;muchas gracias a todo .

The most incredible place to be in the World. I was there in 1974-1976 not 2023.

Quality Service and Honest people!

Good Samaritans at Kuna Yala

This resort hotel is rather basic just as the food. The lobster (extra costs) was cooked till is it was overcooked. The rest of the meals are good but basic. The wasn't really friendly. At departure day they kept on pushing we had to leave, while we had all the time.  The beach is not really relaxed for swimming

Basic accomodation

The staff were really friendly and helpful. The facilities though, while rated 3 and a half star online, were at best 1 star. The room was poor and the mousquitos were plentiful, despite the nets over the beds. The food was mediocre at best. Again the best feature was the staff.
