Top Caribbean West Hotel Reviews
SAND DIAMOND HOTEL
10/10 Excellent
"Room super clean!"
La Coralina Island House
10/10 Excellent
"Amazing stay and the staff is incredible"
Cosmic Crab Resort
10/10 Excellent
"I have been traveling to Cosmic Crab for 9 years. It is one of my favorite places. The resort has a rustic Caribbean vibe with one of the best sunset views in Bocas. The pool is lovely. The restaurant has delicious food. I recommend the fresh fish dishes, burgers, and pizza. The bloody Mary's and margaritas are fabulous. The staff is friendly and helpful. Sometimes they host special events like a mosaic art workshop. They are now a Filthy Friday stop, also. You are just a quick boat ride from the main island."
Bocas Paradise Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"We really enjoyed our stay; I think it's one of the best hotels in Bocas del Toro. Why? It's just a 10-minute walk from the airport. It is 100% clean. Friendly and helpful staff. The air-conditioning in the room works perfectly well. Boats to go to other islands/trip are next to the hotel and some can pick/drop you up at the back of the hotel. Nice restaurant, comfort and views. Then, across the street, there is a very cheap restaurant to have breakfast or something cheaper to eat. Shops nearby as well. The only negative point is that from Thursday to Saturday night the nightclub next to it, has very loud music. So, either you joint the party or book the hotel Sunday to Wednesday. The hotel provided earplugs, but... it's loud."
La Cubana Colón
8/10 Good
"La atención del personal muy buena y amable desde el guarda de seguridad hasta el personal de limpieza y recepción lo único malo es que probablemente el detergente que usan para lavado no es muy bueno xq las toallas olían a sucio aún estando recién lavadas y habían algunas pequeñas cucarachas en el baño... pero por lo demás muy bien y recomendado como muy buena opción de hospedaje.."
Hotel Eclypse de Mar Acqua Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"Great view, friendly staff. Only thing is, noise/loud music throughout the night specially on Fri. & Sat. nearby/across the property in bastimentos."
Hotel Bocas del Toro
10/10 Excellent
"Great room overlooking the water with a nice comfortable covered balcony. Right in the middle of many bars restaurants and shopping. All of the staff were super friendly!"
Punta Caracol Acqua Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"Nuestra experiencia en Punta Caracol fue muy bonita. Es un lugar encantador, rodeado de naturaleza, con una ubicación privilegiada y paisajes espectaculares. Nos encantó especialmente poder hacer snorkeling y disfrutar del mar. Es un lugar maravilloso para visitar en familia, ya que los niños disfrutan muchísimo de esta experiencia. Además, su ubicación es estratégica para conocer otros lugares de Bocas del Toro. Como aspectos por mejorar, consideramos importante mencionar que las habitaciones no cuentan con refrigerador y que, para conservar algunos alimentos o cargar los teléfonos, es necesario acudir al restaurante, lo cual resulta un poco incómodo. También notamos que algunas instalaciones muestran señales de deterioro y necesitan mantenimiento para conservar la belleza del lugar. A pesar de estos detalles, nos llevamos una experiencia muy bonita en familia. Es un destino con muchísimo encanto y potencial. Con algunas mejoras en sus instalaciones y comodidades, la experiencia sería aún más especial. ¡Sin duda, un lugar que disfrutamos mucho y que recordaremos con cariño!"
NAYARA Bocas del Toro
8/10 Good
"Keeping in mind the value for money, this was our review of a 5 day stay in the over water villa. The Great: The property itself carries the weight of this resort. The villa was spacious with amazing views and the flexibility to spend 24/7 in your villa if you wished through room service, swimming, and water activities. Bar and Food were both great, from friendly staff to an extensive menu and flexibility to make substitutions. The spa is exceptional, situated in a tree house with breathtaking views and a variety of services. Seemless transportation from the airport. Where it fell short: Construction: While any property requires maintenance, the selling feature of relaxation and privacy in your villa is lost with workers consistently working on the decks around you or on neighbouring villas with loud power tools. No notice given or reparations for all the disturbances. Attention to detail: At this price level, and considering there are only 20 guests at any time on the resort, we had experiences like spelling my name wrong, dirty curtains in the villa, staff not following up. Additionally after 2 days of asking for hot sauce with breakfast, or sugar with coffee, it felt odd to have to continue to ask all 5 days. Consistency: I do acknowledge the resort on an island, and perhaps some ingredients are difficult to get. But ordering the same menu item or drink does get you the same thing every day. For example drinks blended or not, quesadilla meat flavour, and sides."
