Each of our six casitas has been thoughtfully designed as a private retreat, where comfort, privacy and simplicity come together.

Identical in size and layout, every casita welcomes up to two adults and features a queen-size bed, separate living and sleeping areas, a fully equipped kitchen and a private outdoor shower surrounded by tropical greenery.

Designed to feel like a true home away from home, each casita includes everything needed for a comfortable stay, including a coffee machine, blender, quality cookware, olive oil, salt, pepper, sugar and complimentary coffee. Pool towels are also provided for your convenience.

Hot water is available throughout the casita, and the water across the property comes from our own well and is perfectly drinkable.

The soul of each casita lies in its details. Furniture, objects and decorative pieces have been carefully sourced from Panama and around the world, blending local craftsmanship with European influences to create warm and unique interiors filled with character.

Built with patience, passion and countless hours of dedication, every casita has been designed and decorated as if it were our own home, with the hope that from the moment you arrive, it will feel like yours too.

OUR STORY

Nukumi Club was born from a family journey — a Breton family who chose to cross the ocean and start a new life in Panama, in the small and vibrant village of Santa Catalina.

Clara created a place where she could welcome people from all over the world, while living in harmony with her love for the ocean, nature, and a slower way of life.

This project also became a deeply personal one. Through Nukumi Club, she reconnected with her mother, and together they brought this vision to life —a place built with intention, care, and shared values.

Nukumi Club reflects Clara’s desire to contribute to the growth and spirit of Santa Catalina, a place she is deeply invested in. It is also the expression of her travels, her inspirations, and her dream of creating a space that feels truly unique.

A place that doesn’t exist anywhere else.

A place that feels like home, yet completely elsewhere.

Created with intention, shaped by the ocean, and rooted in connection.

More Than a Destination, A Second Home

Discover the experiences that make Santa Catalina one of Panama's most unforgettable coastal escapes.

Santa Catalina is more than a destination, it’s a way of life.

As a guest of Nukumi Club, you’ll receive access to our curated guide featuring our favorite local partners, activities and hidden gems to help you experience Santa Catalina like a local.

Discover Coiba National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for world-class diving and snorkeling. Depending on the season, you may encounter whale sharks, humpback whales and their calves, dolphins, sea turtles, rays and vibrant marine life while exploring some of Panama’s most pristine islands.

For surfers, Santa Catalina offers legendary waves for experienced riders, while Playa Estero provides ideal conditions for beginners and intermediate surfers. Private lessons and coaching are available for all levels.

Beyond the ocean, enjoy kayaking, yoga classes, massages, horseback riding, skate sessions, workshops and wellness experiences offered throughout the year.

Santa Catalina is also known for its surprisingly rich culinary scene. From local Panamanian fondas to Argentine, Italian, Japanese and Venezuelan cuisine, the village offers an impressive variety of restaurants, cafés and bars for such a small destination.

The community is at the heart of Santa Catalina’s charm. Weekly events, live music, salsa nights, beach parties, workshops, karaoke and cultural gatherings create a vibrant atmosphere where visitors quickly feel at home.

And even during the green season, when tropical showers often arrive later in the day, warm ocean temperatures, lush landscapes and slower rhythms make Santa Catalina one of Panama’s most rewarding places to experience year-round.
