Isla Bastimentos Vacation Rentals

"​Our stay at Bocas Paradise Hotel was excellent, primarily due to its unbeatable location. ​The Highlights: ​Prime Location: Being right on the main street of Isla Colon made it incredibly easy to explore the town, find dining options, and soak in the local atmosphere. ​Tour Convenience: If you're planning on doing any excursions, this is the place to be. The boat tours are located right next door, which made our morning departures seamless. ​Atmosphere & Noise: While the hotel is close to the nearby clubs, we found the noise levels to be perfectly manageable. I had packed earplugs just in case after reading previous reviews, but we actually never needed to use them. ​Overall, a great home base for anyone looking to be in the heart of the action in Bocas del Toro!"

"Nice pool area, great location, great food"

"Ok. Here is a review to help people as I have seen some bad reviews. This property is not a $1500/night maldives room. It needs some TLC - some deck boards and railings are at end of life, as are some chairs. We stayed in the master suite and really liked the place. Water is crystal clear, master suite has the best fish viewing, owners are really friendly and eager to please, food and drinks are decent - fresh OJ for the tequila sunrise! The charging station at the reception is not a big deal. I don’t need tvs. Fans kept us cool and it rained almost every night. There were a couple minor damp spots after rain but did not need the provided container. For the price this place is 100% worth it. I would go back in heart beat. If you need a blow dryer and straight iron and other high powered appliances to feel like you at home and need to watch your reality TV on a big screen, you might want to skip this. If you want a great relaxing location and unique experience - do it! "

"Got locked out with no one available to let me in. Room smelled funky No coffee available in the morning Paid cash and requested a reciept. Was told I would get one and never did"

"Staff was exceptional, ask for Antonio to be your waiter at the restaurant great guy very professional. "

"We felt in love with this place! Yoga , SPA , perfect dining. Everything exceptional in La Coralina! Will come back for sure! "

"The property is breathtaking! Absolutely beautiful. Staff was kind. The lodge was stayed in was comfortable and spacious. The view from the balcony was stunning. Wish there was one more restaurant in the property. There are times when the only restaurant does not offer food service so plan your tours etc accordingly. The restaurant functions on island time so pack your patience. The listing on Expedia says private pool for the lodge but it is actually shared between 10 lodges. Overall a great stay ! "

"Beautiful suite and friendly staff. The walk to town was difficult and not well maintained- I would not want to do it after dark. The food was good but very pricey ($25 USD for dinner of pasta with no veg or protein even for a child who received a smaller portion and of course no wine!) and disappointed there were no local food options. Otherwise very happy with the stay and the staff!"

"Refused to allow us to arrive early stating they did not have space - simply not true..it is a very large compound with many places to hang out. They need more staff - the owners are working too hard and seemed burned out. "
