EL OTRO LADO, PORTOBELO BAY

THE SOUNDS OF WILDLIFE

Lie in your hammock with a frivolous book and don’t even bother to read. Listen, with your eyes half closed, to the world receding away. Play the ear-stretching game. How far can you hear? The tinkle of the ice in your glass, of course. Children playing down on the beach. Birds calling to each other in distant treetops. The sounds of wildlife in the nearby National Park, carried over on the breeze. At El Otro Lado, guests are counted in single figures. So you’ll have space and peace aplenty to let go of the everyday, and begin to luxuriate in this luxury boutique hotel nestling on the edge of a beautiful sandy bay, surrounded by the exuberant flora and fauna of the National Park of Portobelo.

“FLAWLESS, AGAIN”
This is the third time I’ve used TUTC. The service, as before, was flawless. Aside from putting in place all the major details of a complex trip to Japan, Dan at TUTC nailed every detail: train tickets were for seats with large luggage space (very important in Japan, as we discovered); a mobile internet wifi was included; together with a pre-charged use-pretty-much-anywhere travel card (again, important – Japan has multiple transport companies). For any kind of complex trip I won’t go anywhere else.
