our CASITAS


















READ MORE
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

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.

Gros coups de cœur au panama! Le lieu est magnifique 🤩, la décos est canon et de qualité et le service est au top ! Je vous conseille de réserver rapidement parce que c’est prisée ! Merci beaucoup Clara pour cette escapade au paradis.Posted on Google Bien GrotendorstTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Six little cosy houses spread around a beautiful garden and pool. It is adults only and very private. The lounge area at the pool house was amazing especially with the fan during the hot days. I would recommend some extra pool umbrellas around the pool beds as the sun is out there the entire day. The pool beds are very comfy. The houses are decorated with great taste and are very cosy. Loved it! Town is 15m walk and nice restaurants are nearby. If you need to go to the supermarket, I recommend mini super wahoo rock in town or buy groceries at a big supermarket along the highway before entering SC.Posted on Google Jana KilgusTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful stay here during our 4 nights stay in Santa Catalina. The casitas and the entire property were exceptionally clean, and the kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed. We especially loved the thoughtful interior design — every detail was beautifully arranged and created a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The owner was always available and gave us great recommendations and helpful tips throughout our stay. Restaurants and the beach are all within a short walking distance. We felt completely comfortable and at home here and would definitely choose this accommodation again.Posted on Google Lisa STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We absolutely loved our stay at the Casita. You could truly feel how much love and attention to detail was put into every little thing. From the nice towels to the Ninja blender in the kitchen, and even the hammock on our private little terrace — everything was thoughtfully chosen and made the stay feel extra special. We especially loved the pool area, where the music created such a relaxing and unique atmosphere that perfectly matched the whole vibe of the place. Clara was incredibly kind and welcoming, and we really enjoyed chatting with her during our stay. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a special and beautifully designed stay — we loved every minute of it and would really love to come back one day!!Posted on Google Caro DESMARETZTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nous aurions voulu garder ce petit paradis secret mais ce ne serait pas rendre honneur à Clara pour ce qu’elle en a fait . Ici tout est conçu pour se sentir dans un cocon de zenitude et de bien être . Nous avons tout adoré : le lieu à taille humaine , la qualité des bungalows , le magnifique mobilier , l’espace piscine et bar magnifique , le jardin … coup de cœur pour le chant des oiseaux le matin et le tout dorloté par la maîtresse de maison. Après 4 nuits passées ici nous avons envie de revenir au Panama en partie pour le Nukumi Club (mais nous avons également adoré l’ambiance de Santa Catalina). Encore merci à Clara pour son accueil et son sourire et tous les conseils donnés . Alors … à très vite 😉 on l’espère 😍😍😍 Allez y les yeux fermés !Posted on Google Jair LlovellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
