- We are offering a true boutique eco resort with traditional thatch bungalows. Our bungalows are built in accordance with the principles of Natural architecture providing harmony with the landscape, with the local culture and the dwellers. it is a true example of vernacular architecture, the bungalows are a blend of Gnobe-buggle traditional construction techniques and new technology, which allows us to limit our impact on the environment. The resort is solar powered and use rain water. We are the only resort in Bocas offering all the bungalows built by Indigenous persons using their traditional building technique and materials. This has taken a lot of time, many years. None of the competitors who came here had been able to invest the necessary time and resources to create such unique structures. Each bungalow is crafted and unique. As they have no door and no windows and provide an uninterrupted view of the surrounding nature, they offer a real unique experience, which separate us from any competition. From the terrace and even from the bed of the bungalow you can enjoy incredible water views and see animals. It is a true gem for nature lovers. Comfort and privacy is offered by canvas curtains that one can close, orthopedic King and Queen size mattresses, custom made no see ums mosquito nettings, ceiling fans and hot water showers.
- The location of Al Natural is very precious and unique. We are almost the only one offering cabins on a beach with safe swimming waters, which is so important for all and especially for families. As we are facing the lagoon, guests can swim, play, do kayaks and paddle board everywhere safely. To be in the lagoon offers us also easy and safe access by boat all year round ; by any weather we are always able to do the boat trip to Bocas town. It is because we are at the end of the lagoon, so close to the open sea, that we are enjoying a little beach created by the little waves coming inside the lagoon. Our beach is 420m. (1,380 ft.) long and is one of the only beaches on the lagoon side in the archipelago of Bocas. Most of the other beaches in Bocas are in the open sea side, are not easily accessible by boat and are most of the time very dangerous.
- We are located in front of the Zapatillas Cays, the touristic highlight of the whole region of Bocas del Toro. Those two cays are perfect postal card scenery, inhabited and fully protected as part of the Bastimentos Marine National Park. We takes guests there on a regular basis, we have been able to show turtles hatching there very easily from September to December. Also, for diving the location has been incredible, our Zapatillas Dive Center offers regularly dives to the protected waters and reefs around the Zapatillas Cays in the National
Marine Park where many impressive wall dives and caves can be explored when the sea allows it, and who offers them at a competitive price due to our location, as we are far away from Bocas, but closest to the best dive sites and the Bastimentos National Marine Park. Also we are the closest to Tiger Rock, arguably the best dive site in the whole archipelago of Bocas.
- We are surrounded by incredible untouched nature. Around the bungalows many guests have spots various kinds of sloths and monkeys, giant rays, many birds and lizards, and from the beach in front of the bungalows, by swimming or by using the kayaks, they can snorkel the nearby reefs by them self.
- Provides a safe and optimal healthy living, far away for the crowd.
- We are set on the eastern tip of the island of Bastimentos, the furthest spot from Bocas town which gives us a very particular environment and which protect us very well against further uncontrolled development. It create a very nice feeling of seclusion, which is what most of our guests are looking for. To guaranty an environment with NO WIFI turned out to be a real strength in our business. Of course, we do provide close by a hot spot so that when the guests need to connect, they can connect, but WIFI is not readily available in the resort, this makes us so different from all the other places, our guests looking to relax and disconnect are so happy about this setting. It is a very special treat for the families who can be at last in an environment when their children are not constantly looking at a screen and connected to the web.
- The food and the communal dinning have been also an experience that our guests are valuating a lot. Our Chef has developed a delicious kitchen which is a blend of European cuisine and tropical ingredients, I called it a Belgo-creole cooking. Our staff is fully able to reproduce those dishes. The aperitif time and bungalows, spaced apart from one another and open to the outside, are
Our obviously ideal in time of COVID-19. All our locals are open spaces, there is no closed room at Al Natural, this is perfect to insure the best ventilation and a safe and healthy environment. Fortunately, the islands of Bocas del Toro have so far been largely spared by the epidemic.
The communal dinning create a real sense of community and allow all the guests to share and meet each other. They are really enjoying this. They see it as a much more interesting experience than to dine in separate tables. This provides a prefect balance: during the day, you almost see no one and you can enjoy your time by yourself in Nature and at night, comes the social moment, when we can all share our experiences. Many persons depart Al Natural with new friends.
- All our Staff is mostly Nobe Bugle, the indigenous tribe who live in the nearby villa of Salt Creeck. Working with them gives a very authentic and personal touch to our services, this makes a stay with us a true unique experience.
- A stunning very complete web site, with a lot of professional quality pictures, with an easy to use reservation module and connected to Booking.com and Expedia through a Channel Manager for easy control over availability and inventory.
