The Terraza at Islas Secas, Panama


The unique cathedral-like Terrace, or Terraza, is the heart of Islas Secas. It’s a place for you to share meals, tales of recent adventures and beautiful sea views. You’ll delight in freshly made, mouth-watering dishes and ocean-to-fork dining using the finest local ingredients with a true flavor of Panama.



The Terraza is the focal point of the island, and is the perfect, relaxed, open-air setting for guests to enjoy locally sourced dishes prepared with Panamian flare. Whether it’s crispy fried whole snapper, seared octopus or ceviche, our menu offers delicious dishes with a distinct local flavor. Menus change daily using the freshest ingredients, the catch-of-the-day and just-picked produce. Our daily breakfast includes freshly baked pastries, Greek yogurt, homemade granola and fruit platters with sun-ripened, locally grown papaya, mango, pineapple and kiwi. Sunset barbecues, beach picnics and room service in the Casitas can also be arranged upon request.




Adjacent to The Terraza is our welcoming Hemingway-style bar and lounge. With handcrafted panel interiors and colonial-inspired displays of historic maps and local artwork, it’s the perfect spot to relax with a book, enjoy an aperitif or post-dinner nightcap. A cozy games room ‘nook’ houses a small library, a variety of board games, chess tables and original archaeological artifacts from the region which will bring out the inner explorer in every guest, even the youngest of adventurers.


The communal Terreza, open to the elements - a perfect place to come together, indulge in delicious local dishes and share tales of the days adventures.
