Hotels

Hotels and cabins on Isla Grande fill during weekends and the high season, from late November to early April. Outside of these dates, it is difficult to find a restaurant that is open, so stick with the hotels mentioned below, or try Villa Ensueño (tel. 448-2964), or the reggae bar Club Punta Proa (no phone) in the village, both of which serve midrange Panamanian fare (seafood or chicken) with coconut rice, beans, and plantains. The Candy Rose (tel. 448-2947) has simple meals and dining on a seafront deck.
