We spent 4 nights here. The rooms are on the smallish side, but clean and comfortable. We only slept in the room, otherwise we were on the deck or doing other activities. Kayaks are available to use and water taxis will come right to the dock. Swimming off the deck and snorkeling trips easliy arranged. Located about a 5 minute walk from town, so the area is quiet at night. Several reviewer have complained about the neighbors. While they are a large family, noise was really never an issue. We would definately stay here again...and the breakfast? Huge and delicious!

Doug, the owner, is really great! Friendly, helpful, open, really nice! However, the b&b needs a lot of work done... Not sure if it's the salt or what, but the rooms need some taking-care-of. The veranda is great with a water view, however, the rooms were depressing/ dark/ musty. We too were greeted by a cockroach in the shower.

In general, though, Bocas Town is extremely overrated... It is very expensive for what you get (dirty!), so if you want a nice, romantic get away, try to stay in one of the islands (of course, you will probably pay more).

The cays, however, are in fact WONDERFUL!

I loved it here. I visited in September 2011 and remembered I must make some recommendations!
I was travelling on my own and it was a perfect choice. I made friends with the other travellers and even did a day trip with them one day. I wouldn't have wanted to be out of the town being on my own as going anywhere for food would have been a problem.
Doug was great and always on hand to help and to recommend where to eat.
The room is not 5 star but that's not what you come here for. I found it clean and decent. I don't understand what the problem would be with a padlock - you can close normally inside. Of course there are sea smells - it is on stilts over the sea. yes there are only 4 rooms and the amneties reflect that. However you can use the laundry room and there is water available. The laundry room came in useful after hiking on the neighbouring island. My new found friends and I decided to hike across the island fromthe boat stop to Red Frog beach and then walk along to the next beach. That was an amazing walk.
I wish I could have brought my boyfriend here - it is a really romantic spot.
I didn't hear anything from the neighbours but loved to watch their lifestyle and envied their massive family!

Top tip: Take an island bus to Star fish beach - you can enjoy a lovely walk along here and if you are lucky watch the monkeys in the trees( you hear them first). I hope for their sake that no more development takes place up on this part of the island.

We had a reservation for a bit longer but couldn't go through with it. The doors have padlocks on them, which turned off my wife. It's a bit dingy and musty on the inside with the floor giving way slightly underfoot. This is more like a hostel than a b&b, not for a romantic get away. The owner is very nice, we really wish it would have worked out but we were expecting much more.
