I guess I should have waited about no new properties.....I see LL added some neat places....Look at the new property in Panama. Very interesting. Thanks LL!
ps-but please keep the properties where ALL is included. I do not like the additional taxes to be paid to the property.....
I saw the new one in Panama also - I would stay in the tent - we are tempted for next March - this is the 1st package I have seen so far that has dates into 2014! But it is only 4 nights - I would like to add the overwater bungalows that the other Panama package does!
dhd--that Panama property is extremely tempting to us, too. Somehow I missed that one--thanks for the mention. I could do the same thing and add the bungalows. Or the canal resort LL used to offer. Good addition LL!
Sounds like this should be a 2014 "Team Building" meeting for the LL Community Forum group!
We are looking at this package as well...however, it appears to be in the early stages of development (and I like to allow for some 'experience' time before checking into new properties). We think a 2014 date probably makes more sense.....also, there is no A/C in the tents...just hate humidity when sleeping! The other suites look a little out of place with the surrounding environment.Quote:
We're keeping this on our watch list,
The Resort at Isla Palenque looks like a new residential development starting up in Panama with a small resort operation. I agree with -O-. Never like to arrive at a new hotel operation until they have some operating time under their belt.
A/C in tents? Have you ever stayed in a tent with A/C?
AC does not enter the equation for me. Sometimes it is nice to stay in a brand new place before everyone else discovers it!
I couldn't imagine staying somewhere in Panama without AC!
I grew up camping and sleeping on picnic tables when necessary. These days I want AC in a luxury tent! We loved Garonga Safari Lodge but it was very warm at times. Made afternoon naps very sticky...Quote:

This looks like a big time residential development for rich 'expats' with a small hotel operation.
Could be a lot of fun for a few days, playing with all of the water toys.
