Islas Secas
Gulf of Chiriquí, Panama
Why Islas Secas is one of The World's Best 100 Resorts 2026.
Islas Secas places a very small number of guests across a privately protected Panamanian archipelago. Spacious casitas, private aviation access and extraordinary marine encounters create the exclusivity; conservation and low-density design make it meaningful. The spirit is expeditionary, the comforts those of a private estate.
