El Toucan Loco floating lodge is a recently renovated bed and breakfast in Tierra Oscura, where guests can make the most of its bar and shared lounge. Set on the beachfront, this property has a private beach area, an open-air bath, a garden and free WiFi. When staying at the bed and breakfast, guests can use private entrance.

After reading all the reviews and checking the pictures we were expecting something extraordinary, but what we saw on the spot exceeded our expextations. The location is just amazing. Far away from the civilization which was absolutely fantastic. The house is beautiful, bed very comfortable, you have even home-made eco soaps in the bathroom. There is kayak attached to your house for use FOC as well as the snorkeling equipment. Water around is warm - swiming at dawn was just superb! We saw sloths with small baby in the mangroves nearby and dolphins passing by our floating house. There are also howler monkeys in the forest and you will definitely hear them while you rest in the hammock. Amazing experience! There are few homes around belong mostly to indigenous people - you will see them passing by in their traditional cayucos. Meals are prepared by ex-chef Sophie and you eat them each time with the owners - there are no other guests - they have only 1 floating house. You have to try her home-made jams made from passion fruit, banana, guanaba, papaya and delicious home-made nutella. Her hot chocolate is something not to be missed. Lunch is 10 USD, dinner 20 USD and it is really worth it - especially her sauces (thankfully she shared her recipes :). Transfer from Almirante dock is 30 USD one way and is organized by the owner.

Where the Jungle Meets the Reef,” CocoVivo is a magical eco-retreat on the southern tip of Isla Cristobal. Six private glamping cabins sit over the water, just meters from a vibrant coral reef for easy snorkeling, kayaking, standup paddle boarding, and exploring our private shipwreck.

The location is superb, remote and separated. The Coral Reef much better than expected. In fact the best we saw in all Bocas del Toro. Well worth to go only for it. Great food and help on everything. The whole team helped make our stay a great one Special comments for the bioluminiscence swimming at night. This is real must.... Fantastic

A recently renovated bed and breakfast in Bocas del Toro, Eden Jungle Lodge offers sun terrace, private parking and sports facilities. The property features sea and mountain views. Offering free WiFi throughout the property, the non-smoking bed and breakfast has an open-air bath.

1. Location: This place is paradise. The views from the terrace are incredible. They have a beautiful garden which is very much jungle. It comes with lots of pretty birds, monkeys, sloths, fruits and flowers. It's also very quiet (besides the sound of nature). 2. Food: There's nothing about the food that could be improved. Breakfast was incredible, with lots of fruit, and so was every other meal I had. Judith really places a lot of importance on the quality of the ingredients. Considering the quality it comes at a very good price. Great juices and I in particular loved the homemade hot chocolate. 3. Hosts: Judith and Fabrice are so nice and friendly. And really went out of their way to make sure that I had a great time there. For example when I mentioned to Judith how much I loved her chocolate she made sure there was some for every meal. 4. Comfort: It really is hotel standard which I found astonishing given that they are in the jungle. Hot water, very clean room and bathroom, great bed. And it was all done by someone with really good taste. Each room also has a lovely terrace with comfortable chairs and hammock and great view.

Nayara Bocas del Toro has an outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre, a garden and shared lounge in Bocas del Toro. With free WiFi, this 5-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk. Guests can have a drink at the bar.

This place and it's people really deserve some praise! Hard to even start to explain what an incredible experience staying there was. Starting from the pick-up with a boat by Elke (hope this is how you write his name) and some bubbles along the way and the most helpful and detail oriented staff I have ever seen. Beautiful place, location, activities and ofcourse the food by the amazing chefs. Everything was so personalised. Special thanks to Franco at the beachbar for creating good cocktails and chill atmosphere with his guitar, Sebastian who knew exactly where to find dolphins on our sunset boat ride and the chefs for getting us the most delicious lobster we've ever eaten! Cannot recommend this place enough (although almost feeling like I'd like to keep this place a secret because it's too special 😂).

    What a lovely place. Olivier and Sylvie are most welcoming, their food is delicious and the cabin was spotless and comfortable. They were also very communicative and made pick-ups/drop-offs simple, and for a reasonable pick-up fee. We would wholeheartedly recommend for anyone wanting some peace and tranquility and it's the perfect way to relax after some time in busy Bocas. Great stay.
