Hibiscus house was a great place to stay on the island. The room was great and the bed comfortable. Air conditioning was good. We had a TV and access to Netflix and other programs. The breakfast was great. Both Nicola and Allen were great hosts. When we asked about anything, they were very helpful in answering our questions. They picked us up from the ferry and took us back to the ferry. Our room was cleaned everyday.

The house was beautiful. It had 3 bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, so it was absolutely brilliant. The location is perfect. We would totally recommend it. The people who looks after it was brilliant and so willing to help at any time during the day.

Beautiful island . Perfect for family time and relaxing.
Beautiful island . Perfect for family time and relaxing. Gorgeous, pristine beaches with soft sand and warm water. We mostly ate at our hotel but the food at Pimienta y Sal was really good too. Pimienta y Sal is right on Playa Larga which was my favorite beach of the three we visited. You can rent a golf cart at your hotel to get around the island, which is also very walkable too. Going to contadora next time, I would take one of the small planes that come in daily several times a day, especially if you’re pressed for time to get back to Panama City. The ferri ride is ok but I takes 2 hours each direction. The plane ride is only $20 more and it’s a lot faster. I would have really liked to have had the time to stay a couple days longer. We had a wonderful time!!!

Contadora Island made an easy get away from Panama City over a weekend during a two week work trip. The ferry to the island was affordable, easy and we even saw humpback whales and dolphins on the way. The beaches I visited on Contadora were clean with beautiful warm water. If I return to Panama City for work again, I am likely to book a trip to Contadora Island again.

Ferry ride from Panama City was easy, comfortable and safe.
Ferry ride from Panama City was easy, comfortable and safe. Island is also very safe, with friendly people and beautiful beaches. Renting a golf cart was the right thing to do as it allowed us to explore everything. The tap/shower water smells a bit funky, and there are not a lot of restaurants/food choices, but otherwise great for a few days for our family of three - we came for the gorgeous beaches! The town is very quiet, this is not a party place.

Contadora Island is beautiful and very safe.
Contadora Island is beautiful and very safe. The whitish, sandy beaches, and transparent to turquoise water are splendid. The disadvantages are the relatively high ratio of the cost of hotels relative to facilities. Food is very expensive. Restaurants charge European type food prices. In most of the US you would pay less for the meals served on Contadora. Fresh fruit is relatively hard to get on Contadora. If we return to Contadora we will bring fresh fruit and other food from Panama City.

The onsite dining facility (stunning view of the beach and nearby islands) and good food) and complementary breakfast were fabulous. Pleased to have an early morning gratus coffee before breakfast was being served. We ate at a couple nearby restaurants a few blocks away....easy walking distance.
Casa Tortuga (Italian) is a dining experience not to be passed up!
We walked everywhere but golf cart rentals looked like fun too.
White sand beach was perfect 'front yard.'

The Island is a beautiful paradise.
The Island is a beautiful paradise. Full of wildlife in land and sea. Great place to go inshore and offshore fishing, diving, snorkeling and whale watching. Its a fairly small island with main roads in good conditions which makes moving around fairly easy. Given the chance to rent a golf cart, do it. (Its worth it if you plan to visit all the beaches because "taxi" service could cost between $5-$10 per trip which is ridiculous considering the size of the island). There are 3 supermarkets in the island, although the goods are expensive. Most restaurants are expensive too. Expect to pay city prices or more in some restaurants. I would recommend to visit playa la ejecutiva and playa sueca. The best restaurant quality/price is pimienta y sal (for seafood, ceviche and fried fish).
Gerald’s Hotel was excellent!! Everything we needed for a short break away ,the breakfast was continental style ,fresh fruit followed by eggs (done as you wanted)toast ,butter and jam ,we loved the homemade bread , also juice coffee and tea , enough to set you up for the day . The room was very nice if simple ,but you needed no more .The staff were very friendly and on hand if you needed anything . We hired a golf cart for 1 day ,Gerald arranged this for us . We wished we had stayed longer ,and will definitely return .
We can strongly recommend Contadora and the Loft. Michaela (the owner) communicated with us very well.
We were picked up at the ferry by Elena, she took us to the apartment and she organized a golf cart for us and a whale watching boat trip that was absolutely fantastic- we´ll have life lasting memories. The apartment was spacious, very clean, and we´ve enjoyed the evening on the terrace with a view of the ocean thru the tree branches. We will definitely come back for longer next time.
Paul and Pilar made the visit truly special and we really felt at home at Casa del Sol. They both go out of their way to ensure guests have a good stay and really enjoy their time on the island. The little bnb is tucked away on the west side of the island but is in easy access to the beautiful beaches away from the business and noise of the airstrip and landing dock.
The hotel is very cozy and comfortable, Gabriela picked me up from the ferry and returned back. There is kitchen in the hotel and areas to rest. Air conditioner , refrigerator, wi-fi, towels are in the room. You can use bottle of water in refrigerator by 1 dollar. Hot water and liquid soap are also in the bathroom.
It's very safe.
Nicola is the nicest host. She really went out of her way to make sure that my stay at Contadora Island was great ! And it was thanks to her. Amazing restaurant recommandations. Her staff is also very nice. Would totally recommand !
The room was also very comfortable and clean and the breakfast very tasty and generous.
The staff (Mr. Elbert & Mrs. Veronica) were super warm, welcoming and very helpful. They have so much knowledge about the island and the history of contadora. The house was very well stocked, the facilities for entertainment have everything you need and more. The kitchen equipment was clean and very complete.
the view from the restaurant and our room (4) was briljant. great being right on the beach.
if you are on a budget go to the local restaurant Angelina, everything at 1/2 price. we chartered a private motorboat for 2 hours in front of the beach for $60, to go around some islands which is highly recommended.
Robert and Lawrence were very kind, happy, and generous hosts. They made us feel at home from the initial shuttle pick-up from the ferry until the return drop-off. Our room was comfy and clean, the veranda was laid back and relaxing, the breakfast was great, and we overall enjoyed our visit!
Located on Pearl island which speaks for itself. The whole island is a dream for swimming, snorkeling and relaxing
+ Great staff (greeted by the owner and taken to short island introductory tour, awsome welcome drink)
+ the cat and wildlife in the garden
+ outstanding breakfast
The island is nice with 3-4 cool beaches and there are other islands in the archipelago worth visiting.
Andres did the welcome very well and was available throughout the stay in case we needed. The house is quite nice but doesn't get beyond the minimum level of service.
The property was really good value for the price. The best thing was the excellent service from Paul, he was right on time to pick us up from the ferry arrival, he have us tips to of places to go and beaches to explore. Great guy!
The best location in Contadora, the property is well kept and clean. The entire staff was very helpful and accommodating. Food was tasty and the portions were generous. The bed and pillows provided a good night of sleep.
Good location, especially close to airstrip.
Convenient Restaurant and market on site.
Close to other local businesses.
Great ac.
TV with many channels
Golf cart is necessary to get around the beautiful island.
The staff at the inn was great. Gabriela picked us up from the ferry and showed us around the island. The inn was clean, the internet was good, the bed was comfortable.
Daniel was very nice, he did everything that make us feel comfortable. The location of the Hotel is very good, you can walk to several beaches in a few minutes.
