The Lodge at Punta Rica- Hilltop Eco-Lodge with Views & Pool, hotel in Bastimentos

Punta Rica Lodge is nestled in the Bastimentos island jungle, surrounded by beautiful flora (trees, colorful flowers) and fauna (amazingly rich wildlife). We loved our super friendly, open, fun and helpful hosts, Brian and Daniel, who have made us truly feel at ease and among friends in this beautiful place. Most nights we ate dinner together, since Dan cooks the most amazing and varied dishes, all from fresh, local ingredients, while Brian makes wonderful cocktails that made us feel at home and among friends, sharing stories, dreams and travel adventures. We loved the pool and the common area (living and dining room), as well as our amazing suite, the delicious and fresh meals and the smiles. Thank you. It was one of the most amazing experiences ever.

Eclypse de Mar Acqua Lodge, hotel in Bastimentos

Located in Bastimentos, Eclypse de Mar Acqua Lodge offers private bungalows and rooms with individual hammocks and stairs that provide access to the ocean. A restaurant is also on site.

We loved the location in the bay and our view and access from terrace directly to the ocean. Water was calm, clean, warm and we swam and snorkeled every day. The staff was very friendly, bungalow spacious and clean with both inside and outside shower and two floor windows to watch the colorful fishes swim below our bungalow. Reasonable restaurant prices (15-20 USD for main course, 2-8 USD for drink), food very tasty (especially the grilled tuna :)). Water taxi costs 5 USD to the Bocas town. We made a great choice to book this hotel.

Hostal Cay, hotel in Bastimentos

Hostal Cay is set in Bastimentos and features a bar. The guest house has family rooms. Some units feature a terrace boasting an outdoor dining area. Sightseeing tours are available within easy reach.

It was very simple, though this is expected given the location of being at the water front along the Caribbean and of a very simple town. I arrived about noon and they quickly cleaned the restroom, which added.

    Los Bastimentos is so much nicer than Bocas, I would greatly recommend staying here instead of on Isla Colon. A real Carribean feel, friendly inhabitants, not overly touristy. Excellent snorkelling just a watertaxi-ride away at Hospital Point.

    I like all the island nearby that all had uniqueness and individual charm. We visited 7 various spots and stayed in 4 islands accommodations. All seemed to be noisy at night with either jungle animal sounds, local bars blasting music or boat traffic. Day time hammock naps are a must!

    We liked the snorkeling adventure, but with high surf some of the better snorkeling spots were off limits. If snorkeling is high on your list, be sure to allow for the proper time of year with more calm seas. We saw several sloths on sloth island during a tour and on Bastimentos. We enjoyed the natural beauty of red frog beach and playa bluff. When going to playa bluff, take the local shuttle or taxi as the roads are challenging.

    Basti was fantastic.

    Basti was fantastic. The people are so friendly and the island has such a laid back atmosphere. There are no cars on the island, which I thought was awesome. You get a real feel for the culture here, while also getting a nice beach getaway. We stayed in Old Bank, so we enjoyed watching the boats and locals. Definitely bring more cash than you expect though, most hostels on the island don't accept credit cards, and to get anywhere by boat costs money, as well as entry to the beaches. We blew through our remaining cash quite quickly, and there are no ATM's on Basti.

    Bastimientos is easy to access from Bocas Town by boat taxi, but it is a different world... much quieter and more basic and natural, with good access to lovely beaches. Bastimientos is the option in Bocas if you want something quieter and more simple.

    I stayed, relaxed, ate and drank at Palmar Beach Lodge and I have to say, one of my favourite places so far. The atmosphere was very relaxing, great staff and a big shout out to Jimmy, the best waiter/barman/entertainer! I stayed in an 8 person dorm, had a great bad, no troubles sleeping and the beautiful beach is just waiting for you to get out of bed. I stayed for 7 nights, which was a little too long in my opinion, as there are many islands around that I could have also explored, however, the regular trips organised by the Palmar Crew (also a super friendly and nice bunch of people) made up for my lack of pre-planning. Greetings to the entire team and hopefully see you again in the future at some point.

    This is an amazing, unique experience that I can't recommend enough. Sleeping on the boat was so calm and relaxing. This is a very peaceful spot to unwind for a night or two. The location of the sailboat is absolutely breathtaking! Couldn't ask for better scenery. The couple who live on the boat are very nice and helpful, great to talk to, but also respectful of your boundaries as guests on their boat. If you're bored of hostels or hotels while backpacking through Central America you should try this sailboat. Loved it!

    The food was incredible. Chef Victoria did an incredible job taking the food from the jungle and turning it into a fabulous meal. We also loved that they delivered chocolate tea first thing in the morning to enjoy in our hotel room. The property was gorgeous and incredibly well built. Additionally, the wild life was incredible. We saw at least a dozen capucin monkeys from our hotel room. We were overcharged but Jose gave us a refund. Thanks to the staff for an incredible honeymoon.

    Ataraxia was the best place we stayed in Panama. It was so nice, quiet and relaxing. The bungalows are more uphill and in the jungle, with fantastic views. We also had some nice dinners in the restaurant. The transport with watertaxis is easy and you can also walk to Old Banks when the waterlevel is not too high. We borrowed kayaks and went kayaking to Isla Solarte and along the mangroves. Beautiful. The owners Pierre and Manon are so friendly and helpful.

    My boyfriend and I stayed at Selina Red Frog for 2 nights and we definitely loved it! The place is beautiful and very close to Red Frog beach but what we loved the most was sleeping in the middle of the jungle, taking a shower with views and our lovely neighbours the sloths. The staff is so kind and nice. And the activities they programme so cool. We are so much looking forward to come back!

    The location and service at Carmen's Place are superb. A relaxed and calm hotel offering you rest and leisure is situated across the water from the nightlife and is convenient accessible by water taxis. As you watch the dolphins and sunset from the dock chairs.. The chef Carmen will serve you delicious meals and beverages. A must stay for short trips or a much needed Vacation of rest!

    Beverly’s hill is very unique and charming. it has a beautiful garden where you can see red frogs everyday and enjoy the view on the ocean. It’s located central near the docks in Bastimentos town and the walk to the wizard beach trough the jungle is a lot of fun. The owner Simon is great, very nice, helpful and open. We really fell in love with this little piece of paradise!

    Run by a friendly idealistic couple. The restaurant was quite good. They provided kayaks and snorkeling gear which was nice. The location is good for Bastimentos but Bocas in general is complicated to get around. Lots of water taxis and the costs can add up. The guide they recommend for the trip to Zapatilla was excellent.

    The Honeymoon Bungalow was absolutely beautiful and very comfortable, and it was fantastic being able to go for a swim off of the deck, lay in the hammock, borrow kayaks, and walk into Old Bank. The staff were absolutely exceptional in every way.
