As we had done our homework about the location this hotel was everything we expected and didn't disappoint. As it has only been open a few months the room was very clean and fresh and of ample size. There was a nice choice of breakfasts and dinner items and a well stocked bar. We loved listening to the waves and wildlife noises and not much else to disturb the tranquility of being in the forest/beach location. Also very close was a good beach bar for a change of food and scenery.

We visited Panama for the second time, and once again, we absolutely loved it. While looking for a beautiful place to stay, we came across this little hidden gem 💍– and what a find it was! Arrival & Welcome We were picked up by a private boat and warmly welcomed. The boat ride took around 45 minutes and was truly enjoyable. Along the way, we received interesting information about the surrounding islands – and even spotted dolphins! Upon arrival, we were greeted with a delicious welcome cocktail before our first meal. Such a lovely touch!☀️😍 Room The room was spacious and very comfortable. We’ve seen a lot of bathrooms throughout Panama, and many of them lack a proper shower. But here – the shower was fantastic! Great water pressure and lovely hot water – such a treat. :) Breakfast Breakfast was amazing. The host really listened to our preferences, and I was thrilled to have my fried egg every morning – along with fresh fruit and avocado. A perfect start to the day! Lunch Lunch was absolutely delicious – we had shrimp with coconut rice and plantains. A real taste of local cuisine that felt authentic and lovingly prepared. Dinner The highlight of our meals was definitely pizza night on our last evening! It was such a fun, communal experience with homemade pizza in creative and tasty varieties. So cool – and honestly, unforgettable. Surroundings The water around the property was crystal clear – it felt like swimming in a private aquarium. We saw a small shark, a stingray, colorful fish, and more – all right in front of our room. I’m usually a bit hesitant in the water, but here, I felt completely safe and at ease. The trees, the light, the tranquility – I can’t even describe how beautiful it was. Truly one of my personal highlights – such peace and connection with nature. Activities The hosts’ children were incredibly kind and welcoming.

What's not to love at Eden Jungle? Magnificent views, excellent food prepared with much care, attention to detail - we went with teenagers and they set up a pool table, foosball table and more-, possibility to visit a Cacao farm, see how it's made and served in different dishes, kayak adventures and boat trips, and last but not least two great hosts that care for nature and the community where they now live. We truly enjoyed meeting Judith and Fabrice.

Tree houses are amazing. Self sufficient facility (energy and water) It is a chance to sleep with high comfort but fully open to nature. A chance for a free chocolate farm tour to better understand the process from tree nut to chocolate cake. The meals are five stars restaurant quality: creative, fresh, cooked with local and property grew legumes and fruits. A chance to see sloths and monkeys. An unique experience not to miss.

Casa Acuario Boutique Hotel

Bocas del Toro

Casa Acuario Boutique Hotel features a private beach area, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Bocas del Toro. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a barbecue.

My family and I stayed in six different hotels across Panama over a two week period and the consensus at the end was that Casa Acuario was the favourite. And by quite a distance. First of all, it’s just a cool place to stay. On stilts, over clear warm water, perfect for the kids (and adults) to snorkel, we got to see shawls of small fish along with a few big ones and the odd ray within seconds of our arrival. We were a two minute boat-taxi away from Bocas town and its modest number of good bars and restaurants, but staying at Casa Acuario meant we got the peace and quiet which the mainland didn’t look like it easily provided. The room we were in (upstairs) was easily big enough for two adults and the kids (aged 13 and 10), nicely decorated and with really comfortable beds and a hammock from which you could overlook the sea. As dog lovers, my children were over the moon that there were three (clean, friendly and well behaved) dogs on site. There were a couple of good places to eat and drink on the small island which we could get to on foot from Casa Acuario, and a nice beach about 15mins walk from the hotel. The fridge full of beer on the decking was also a nice touch! But alongside all of these positives, the main thing that gave Casa Acuario the ‘X Factor’ were the owners, Mandy and JP. We were made to feel welcome from minute one, they could not have been more helpful and they made a real impression on the whole family in our three days with them. And just to provide a little context, after Casa Acuario were went to the nearby, and much more expensive, Eclypse de Mar Acqua Lodge for two nights which, before arriving, I thought was going to be the highlight of the Bocas itinerary. Take nothing away from The Eclypse which was seriously nice, but I wish I’d stayed at Casa Acuario for the full duration. Definitely in the top 5 favourite hotels I’ve stayed in across six continents.

This place is heaven. A little paradise, the view from the room spectacular. I was lucky enough to see dolphins in the bay and a sloth in the garden. The owners are very sweet and try everything to make the stay beautiful. I would come back anytime!

Family-run place that is your perfect base to enjoy the time of your life at the stunning Playa Estrella. Sparkingly clean accommodation set up in a lush garden and with its own beautiful beach, this place was our must-visit stop on our second trip to Panamá. The rooms are newly built, they come with a cozy veranda, great breakfast (and good local cuisine from their restaurant). Easily accessible by local bus from Bocas Town. An amazing family-friendly stay.
