Bocas Beachfront Lodge ★★★★

"Our stay at Bocas Beachfront Lodge exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed by the friendly and attentive staff, who genuinely went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. The location is absolutely beautiful. Waking up to the ocean every morning and being just steps from the beach made for a relaxing and unforgettable experience. The property has a peaceful, laid-back atmosphere that perfectly captures the charm of Bocas del Toro. Our room was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. It was the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring the islands. If you're interested in surfing, this is an excellent place to stay. The lodge is conveniently located near some of the area's best surf breaks, making it easy to get out on the water while still enjoying a comfortable and relaxing home base. What truly made this place special, though, was the hospitality. The owners and staff created an atmosphere that felt warm, personal, and welcoming, making us feel more like guests in a home than visitors at a hotel. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Bocas Beachfront Lodge to anyone visiting Bocas del Toro. It was the perfect combination of beautiful scenery, outstanding hospitality and a relaxing island experience."

Casa Acuario Boutique Hotel ★★★

"I simply wouldn't stay at any other place in Bocas del Toro. I LOVED everything about Casa Acuario - impeccable service, friendly and super-caring owners who went the extra mile for me on multuple occasions, free snorkel and kayaking gear, lovely rooms and boutique property with personally curated, designer touches and features, great location, and --- shhh!!! secret tip!! --- THE best snorkeling in the area is RIGHT UNDER the hotel! Incredible underwater experience, right under my room! What a marvelous place to be -- at a much-needed, but short, remove from Bocas Town, for an elevated but warm and wonderful stay. Again, wouldn't stay anywhere else."

Faro del Colibri ★★★

"This was a huge disappointment. We booked 3 nights but didn't stay at all...The bathroom was moldy. No drain cover in the shower. My wife said she got a shock when she touched the shower tap with wet hands. There are boats screaming past 5 meters from the building every minute. I explained that my wife did not want to stay more than 1 night to the owner and my wife explained to the receptionist. The owner called his receptionist on a mobile phone losing his mind. Maybe not realising he is on speaker. He made a comment that people who don't speak Spanish should not come to Panama. I live in Costa Rica and my wife is Spanish speaking so she clearly understood the owners derogatory remarks. At this point we no longer wanted to stay even the one night. I cancelled on bookings.com at the request of the receptionist and it said no charge but the hotel refused to refund the payment we made for one night. The receptionist told me wife that the owner installed cameras in the rooms? The staff were nice but seemed to fear the owner. Who knows but glad to escape. Let's see what bookings.com does about it. After this experience I read some of the owners replies to negative reviews. It's the exact same negative attitude we received. This owner is not interested in what his guests have to say. The only revenue this place can generate is from tourists so treat people with respect"
