Search Houseboats in Water Cay

"Internet was good. Had a nice view of the ocean. Room was adequate size for two. Floor was not clean. A/C and ceiling fan were functioning and reasonably quiet. Lighting functioned. Dated decor. King sized mattress had a well on one side. Closet hanger area is pretty small with space for 1 large suitcase below. Desk is very small ... more of a shelf. Shelving space is adequate. Curtains and sheers were adequate and manual. Room is not quiet. Our room was right above the music and bar. Music does not play late. The snoring of other guests, as heard through the wall, is a problem. Deck area is not private and has a/c compressor on it generating significant heat over half of the deck. Deck furnishings are plastic and is no space for a reasonable table. Restaraunt/bar staff try hard, they are just not trained to our service standard. You have to be ok going with what they can do rather noticing to much of what they can not do. Keep your drinks simple. I ordered a pina colada that came with imsufficient ice while cream swirled and curddeled. I didnt ask for a replacement or credit, I just took it back full to the bar and asked for a beer. The food here is simple and acceptable. The main focus of the business is to provide divers an experience. We didnt do a dive so cant comment on that except to say there were numerous tours going out and smiles accompanying the divers return. Fishing is not a commercial concern in Bocas. Land & water taxi readiIy available. Owner is a nice guy."

"Great place. Alan was very helpful."

"Comfortable room"

"Our villa was great. So peaceful with beautiful views and a lovely pool. The location of the property was amazing and Polo beach nearby was great to spend the day at when the waves were too big at Red Frog. The store had decent options although more fruit options would have been nice. It was nice to be able to get rides around when needed. Downsides were the restaurant.. the food wasn't great and service was very slow. We wished we had eaten more at Palmar lodge next door as it was great. The other downside was the tour that we booked through the front desk to see Zapatilla. I messaged to confirm in the morning and it was pretty apparent that they had forgotten to book something and scrambled to find another boat and driver at the last minute. We were told the day would include snacks and fruit and drinks and all we were provided was two small warm bottles of water. We also stopped at a place for lunch that took well over an hour and while we were sitting there, our driver left with the boat and all of our belongings without telling us where he was going. The beach was beautiful but the snorkeling was mediocre and overall not worth the money. We still tipped our driver after and then were not pleased to see at checkout that they had added a large service fee onto the booking without telling us. Overall a beautiful location and property but needs some work on communication and food."

"yes"

"Kitchen was sparse. No coffee maker only espresso machine. We enjoyed our stay. Slept great. Papaya restaurant nearby was our favorite. Staff in Merlin restaurant below the hotel was always friendly and greeted us with a wave and smile but never came over to take our order so on three different occasions we got up and went somewhere else. Is there a cultural thing we’re missing here ?"

" Vacation in paradise. Staff super helpful in arranging tours and water taxis to other places."

"TV remote half worked, no sports on any TV. Towels and wash cloths was a struggle almost everyday. Overall pretty nice place and staff was great."

"Location right near the airport. Very convenient. It was a very short walk to Bocas town where there were lots of restaurants to choose from "
