Not 5 star luxury but none the worse for that. 3 night stay. Terrific staff. Great setting on the edge of a tidal river - we got there by boat to their own private landing place. Excellent breakfast - none of that Continental style crap. 2 minutes away from the main drag where there are loads of shops and eating... More

My wife and I stayed at Bocas Inn while in Bocas Del Toro for our honeymoon. The staff was friendly, the hotel was beatiful and we couldn't have felt more comfortable. We had one of the standard rooms, and the side door opened up to a balcony overlooking the water with some comfortable chairs and hammocks. The daughter of the... More

My wife and I were finally on a trip without kids after three years and we loved our stay in Bocas Inn. We stayed at the hotel as part of a 4 day package tour we organized with Ancon Expedition and we loved the overall trip and Bocas Inn. Ancon organized 4 days packed of activities to maximize our experience,... More

I stayed at Bocas Inn for 4 nights! It was absolutely fantastic! The small Lodge (I think only 9 rooms) is located on the main island /township on Isla Colon and therefore in short walking distance to nice restaurants and shops. Due to its location outside the main street within a palm tree garden, it offered a perfectly tranquil atmosphere.... More

This is a great find. We were planning on staying 2 nights in Bocas del Toro, but instead stayed 7 nights and scratched the rest of the holiday plans as we fell in love with the Bocas Inn. The inn's location is unique. Right on the water front with a constant breeze running through it and a lush tropical garden.... More

We stayed here for 3 days and 2 nights as part of Ancon Expeditions Bocas del Toro Adventure. This place was fantastic! We ended up being the only guests; so having the place to ourselves didn't hurt. The staff were great and the rooms were nice and clean and air conditioned. We had the majority of our meals here as... More

We stayed 3 nights with a tour group from our local nature center as part of a trip with Ancon Expeditions. The Bocas Inn, from the water, looks a little ragged like most of these stilted buildings, but from the moment we stepped out of the water taxi, we were impressed. Staff was the best part of the place -... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bocas Inn - we booked a oceanfront room for USD 100 which was large and spacious with access directly onto the balcony which overlooks the sea and is equipped with hammocks and rocking chairs. Other reviews mentioned that sharing this deck was an issue but we were lucky and for two nights had... More

This is a charming small hotel with a vibrant tropical garden on the street side and a communal porch with spectacular views on the harbor side. There are two rooms upstairs that open on to a communal water-side balcony with easy chairs and hammocks - a great place to watch island life. The rooms are air-condtioned, which is a great... More

I booked this hotel with Ancon Expeditions of Panama, phone: [--] or Email: [--] for two nights in February at US$95 per night and it was a great retreat! Right on the water front, open dining deck, comfortable hammocks on the top balcony (pretty much private!) right in front of our room that was simple but nice and comfortable with... More
