Rocio is an excellent host and communication with her was pleasant. The house is 20 minutes walk to famous “sea star beach”, one of the best places on Earth

Aqua Lounge features a shared lounge, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Bocas del Toro. The accommodation provides karaoke and a shared kitchen.

Guests at the hostel can enjoy an à la carte or a continental breakfast. This was an amazing place where to stay during our trip to Bocas del Toro. The dooble room was very comfortable and clean with air conditioning. The restaurant had really tasty food for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. It also served great cocktails and drinks. Even though it is a party hostel, our double room was quite separate from the common area so the noise was not a problem for us. We took earplugs with us and we were able to have a proper rest during our 3 nights there. This place was especially convenient on Friday, as we attended the Filthy Friday party and we could hop to our room whenever we wanted. Would definitely recommend as the value for money was definitely worth it.

Situated in Bocas del Toro, El Jaguar has a shared lounge, bar and free WiFi. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. Staff on site can arrange a shuttle service. Honestly this place was so cute, I really enjoyed my stay here. It’s right on the water and so gorgeous. The two kitchens makes it easy to cook at the same time as others and omg the pina coladas were the best I’ve had. No air con or hot water but I didn’t mind this so much, just worth baring in mind if you’re someone it’s an issue for xxx
