This hotel is absolutely gorgeous and a wonderful retreat. I stayed in the Crown Jewel suite and it was as amazing as I had hoped. The entire staff was incredibly helpful and Arturo went above and beyond to help with whatever was needed. The grounds are beautiful and I have already recommended this hotel to everyone I know. Will definitely be coming back soon!

When we arrived we were supposed to have someone meet us at the pier and drive us to the property. There was not and when we got to the golf cart area, they said the carts were already taken and if we wanted to go, we could go separately (my husband and I). Bitter start to what was the beginning of a half birthday half mini-moon as we are also newlyweds not looking to go separately and squished between other guests for the quality we are expecting and have been given previously. We overheard other guests having a similar experience - seems like a lack of organization. Further, the food options for someone who cant eat gluten/dairy are extremely limited or non-existent.

Lovely, romantic birthday weekend. The personnel is very attentive to needs and mostly accommodating. The place is super clean, bed is comfortable and AC works wonderfully. Also added bonus the smart TV already has a Netflix account logged in for easy access.

We liked everything about the property. Although the mattress wasn’t comfortable and the pool in our room wasn’t heated. Also there was no masseuse on staff.

It was exclusive and peaceful!

Unfortunately we went in carnivals, and there was too much noise from the festivities of the town.

The view was fantastic, the decoration, the scenery and all the details. The staff was amazing

To have made the terrace outside Blue & Diamond room a little more private for the guests of those rooms so restaurant only guests don't 'intrude'. Cut some of the higher trees in front so better view from shared pool

Breakfast was good (though charge extra $2 for things like bacon etc which is strange. Dinner good. Beautiful and interesting view (ships waiting for Panama Canal). A special hotel

The food was great but the portions were on the small side.

If you want to disconnect from the world this place is wonderful. Our room exceeded our expectations, it was even more beautiful than in the pictures. The food of La Dolce Vita was great every single time.

The breakfast was adequate. Good choice of fruit, additional charge for bacon. Small slices of French stick for toast. However the location and facilities were outstanding. This is a magical place to stay, and the staff were extremely attentive. They worked above and beyond to make it a very special stay.

I am mobility impaired, usually need a cane to walk and stairs are particularly difficult for me. Sooooooo there are lots of stairs which were a bit of a problem. Owner Diane also uses a cane. We discussed possible solutions! But believe me, that schlep up those danged stairs is more than worth it!

The breakfasts and dinner we enjoyed there were excellent. Truthfully, the food was better at VC than what we had at 5-star Buenaventura Resort, where we had stayed immediately before coming to Taboga. We always spend our wedding anniversary on an island! All of the help were fabulous and kind. We loved them. And at our request, Joseph gave us a special jeep tour of Tobaga. He even went on a special candy/chocolate/cookies trip to the store for me and my sweet tooth. Also, the massages we received were excellent! And finally, as an added bonus, we had the pleasure of meeting the gracious owner, Diane, who built a little shack into the beautiful romantic boutique hotel it is today! The layout and the gardens are wonderful. Because she is a well-renowned interior decorator, she and her team have made this place a true delight visually. Ohhhhhh and then there is the incomparable view of the bay of Panama, the canal and the City in the distance !!!

We recently stayed at Villa Caprichosa on Taboga Island to celebrate my cousins 25th Birthday. Our stay was nothing short of a dream come true. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. Diane and her team are beyond kind and have created a gorgeous sanctuary, we are immensely grateful for their efforts in creating lasting memories. First and foremost, the customer service provided by the staff was beyond compare. From the moment we walked off the ferry, we felt like treasured guests, and their genuine warmth and hospitality made us feel right at home. They were always ready to assist with a smile, eager to accommodate any request, and their attention to detail truly set this place apart. Now, let's talk about the culinary delights at Villa Caprichosa. The food and drinks served here were nothing less than extraordinary. Each meal was a delightful journey for the taste buds. From fresh, locally sourced seafood dishes bursting with flavor to creatively crafted cocktails that perfectly complemented the tropical setting, every dining experience was a highlight of our stay. Whether dining in the restaurant or enjoying a meal on our private patio with an ocean view, the ambiance was always inviting and serene. The room was equally praiseworthy. Our room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and provided all the comforts we could wish for. The attention to detail in the design of the villa and the lush gardens that surround it made for a picturesque and tranquil setting. During our stay, we also had the opportunity to explore the island's natural beauty, and the staff at Villa Caprichosa were incredibly helpful in arranging excursions and providing recommendations. It made our vacation perfect. We cannot wait to return for another unforgettable visit. It's a true paradise for travelers seeking luxury, relaxation, and culinary excellence.

I felt like I was back in Italy with beautiful and calm surroundings. We were received at rhe dock by Gilberto who gave us a super tour and history of the Island. Our suite, the Blue Diamond, had a private balcony where the excellent bilingual staff (Margie and Milagros) served our meals. Kudos to the chefs, the food was fresh and delicious.....my favorite was the ceviche! Not only is Taboga a charming Island, but Villa Caprichosa is a gem with excellent facilities and a staff that wanted to make your stay the best. We wiill be back..

There were a couple of issues with water / power supply whist we were there, though they were quickly resolved.

Beautiful hotel and room with private terrace, relaxing pool environment from which to watch the world go by. Very helpful staff and chatting with Diane (the owner) made us feel very welcome.

An incredible mini paradise and just 30 mins away from the city! The cordial staff made it so accommodating! Diane truly takes care of her guests to the best standards. The views are a dream to take in, and for dinner don’t forget to try dolce vita!

Everything was perfect, only minor thing was the shower. Had plenty of hot water and strong water pressure but you had to constantly mess with the handles because it would all of a sudden get very hot or very cold and it wouldn’t stay normal. That is my only complaint, other than that it was all wonderful.

Beautiful clean property with excellent staff, all of whom were incredibly helpful and courteous. They work very well together.

It was a glorious escape to Taboga Island. The exquisite design inside and out was perfect for privacy and socializing. There is not a view that is not perfection whether looking out at the ocean with resting tankers waiting for their turn to enter the Panama Canal, watching yachts, jet skis and beach goers off in the distance, all is serene. The hostess Diane is so gracious as she tells of the VC’s history. The food and service are exceptional.
