Location was good- though there might be an office closer to the boat docks because when we first arrived my map app kept directing me to the wrong place. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you:)"

Top Isla Colon Hotel Reviews
Oasis Bluff Beach
"Overall, we had a good stay and would give the resort 4 stars. They offer free breakfast and free wifi. Alex was our main point of contact and was extremely helpful, kind, and welcoming. Everyone we encountered was very friendly and always greeted us with a “hola” or “buenos días.” The food tasted good, but the menu was simpler than I expected, with options like burritos and quesadillas. I was hoping for a little more variety or local-style food. Our room was decent and had a queen-size bed along with a pull-out couch. The AC worked well, and we had hot water in the shower, which we appreciated. One thing to be aware of is that there are workers upstairs above the room. We were told about this during our arrival tour, so it wasn’t a surprise. They do stop working at a reasonable hour (around 9:30/10 p.m.), but they start around 7 a.m., so if you’re someone who likes to sleep in (or go to bed early), the noise may wake you. We also saw three roaches in the bathroom at night during our stay. Being on a tropical island, I wasn’t completely surprised, but it’s worth mentioning for travelers who may not be prepared for that. Unfortunately, it rained a lot and we got sick and spent 2 of our 3 days in bed, so we didn’t get to enjoy the activities offered. The beach is conveniently located directly across the street and the water was very nice. Overall, we still had a positive experience and would recommend for couples/adults. Also, bring cash to avoid 3% CC fee."

"Muy buena ubicación, inmejorable, excelente atención del personal, todo funcionó muy bien"
Hotel Palma Royale
"Amazing. Super great location."
Punta Caracol Acqua Lodge
"Caracol was rustic but magical. The staff was lovely and it’s so peaceful surrounded by water. Being able to step off my private dock and swim was a delight, and I spent lots of time in my hammock. The restaurant was tasty and the staff was helpful for arranging boat transfers if you wanted to go places."
Bocas Paradise Hotel
"Great location, great views from the king suite, it rained all day we were there and went and grabbed food and a coffee from the cafe/restaurant downstairs, it was lovely. Staff was kind, attentive and courteous. We had a great stay."
Nowhere
"The staff is very helpful and attentive, the hotel is beautiful, sparkling clean and the garden is lush. I need to mention that entry with a vehicle can be be difficult because the gate can be opened only from the reception and if no one is available, there is just no way to open it. And it is a longish walk from the gate to the hotel, which we had to do under pouring rain to get to our taxi outside. Other than that, the stay was amazing and even better than expected for the price. Honestly great."
Bambuda Bocas Town - Hostel
"Quite and service was grrat"
Divers Paradise Boutique Hotel
"Great place to stay in Bocas! The front desk staff were so helpful and accommodating! We enjoyed the restaurant and their staff as well!"
Cabañas Naturaleza
"The property is beautiful and very well maintained. The bed was not very comfortable. Quite firm and the bed was very, very noisy popping wood sound every time you moved. I don’t know if something needs to be tightened or what but so loud. I also wish there were more than just the two pillows. It has been a long time since I had to sleep with only one pillow. Would have been far more comfortable with an additional pillow and another blanket. The air conditioner worked great! Overall, it was a good stay."
