ABOUT CALA MIA BOUTIQUE HOTEL & ISLAND RESORT -  in their own words:

Cala Mia is a beautiful Escape where you don't need keys and where shoes are optional! The Hotel/Resort is located on the tip of a pristine island that runs into the Pacific Ocean, bordered by beautiful palm lined beaches.

Cala Mia consists of 11 beautiful Bungalows/suites, each with its own thatched roof rancho and all within 10 meters from the Pacific Ocean or the beach/bay-side. Furniture, materials and woodwork are home designed and handcrafted by local artisans blending estetics, art, quality and functionality into a new standard!

The bar-restaurant is built on the highest point of a small peninsula for breathtaking views of surrounding islands and bays and views of the resort's private beach and the 180 degrees infinitive edge freshwater pool.

A small island, accessible by hanging-bridge, houses a spa, and yoga exercise area.

Cala Mia as a true Eco-Resort is also an "Escape" into nature where you will find and experience birds, monkeys, dolphins, turtles and much more. An entirely solar powered resort, Cala Mia offers a truly "Green" and enviromentally friendly atmosphere.  Catering to an ecologically and socially aware clientele, we here in Cala Mia realize there are certain responsibilities towards the earth and its people. (we organize some programs to support indigenous people: 5% of your room rate is dedicated to this!)
So Cala Mia is not designed and made to become a "hot spot" for Bush-lovers!!

BUNGALOW SUITES:
The Bungalow Suites at Cala Mia are all designed as a small and elegant home; Each of the 11 Bungalow Suites has its own “rancho” seating area, with a beautiful thatched roof, handcrafted columns, large sofa and hammocks, and a nicely decorated bathroom with a large hot water shower.
All the Suites are less than 10 meters from the sea, with a wonderful view of the ocean and of the beautiful bays, islands, and surrounding nature. Some of them even have private access to the beaches.

Furniture, furnishings, etc. are specially designed by and for us, and made by local artists and artisans, with utmost care for detail. The airy suites are located in such a way that they take utmost advantage of the permanent fresh evening breezes, making its ceiling-fans almost superfluous.

All Bungalow-Suites are similar in size but vary in lay-out:

• One-bedroom with double twin-zie beds
• One-bedroom with king-zie bed
• Two-bedroom with 1 king-size bed and 2 twin-size beds

RESTAURANT:
Perched on the highest point of a peninsula the Bar / Restaurant, boasts breathtaking views of the surroundings. Serene during the day, vibrant towards the evening. Diving, horse-riding, sportfishing and birdwatching stories are told to anyone who wants to listen. The perfect ambiance to feel among friends...
Cala Mia´s kitchen, no doubt the best in Chiriqui, is the exaltation of the honest and natural flavours: refining the best recipes of the traditional genuine Mediterranean kitchen. To offer you the finest in quality and taste: most of the ingredients are from our own - organic - vegetable-garden and farm!

We hope that this unique culinaire experience will stimulate our guests to gather around the big community table with a nice glass of wine to rediscover the almost forgotten habit to exchange thoughts till late at night, or just to enjoy the silence - nature's voice - looking at a unique sun-set followed by a sky, dotted with a billion stars.
