"The staff is very helpful and attentive, the hotel is beautiful, sparkling clean and the garden is lush. I need to mention that entry with a vehicle can be be difficult because the gate can be opened only from the reception and if no one is available, there is just no way to open it. And it is a longish walk from the gate to the hotel, which we had to do under pouring rain to get to our taxi outside. Other than that, the stay was amazing and even better than expected for the price. Honestly great."

All inclusive 47ft sailing catamaran in Bocas del Toro

10/10 Excellent
"Captain Jeremy and Kate were absolutely amazing. Not only did they provide anything and everything in the listing but they were constantly offering suggestions and stories about so many more options. The food was spectacular. Every single meal was delivered with love and care. They provided so much food that there was no chance anyone would go hungry, and it was so delicious it was difficult to not get seconds. My daughter loved Kate and we couldn’t have asked for someone more kind and kid friendly. Captain Jeremy basically taught our boys to fish and ensured such a success that all three kids somehow pulled in a stingray. That was such a memorable experience for all of us. We traveled to starfish beach, dolphin bay and even snagged a few moments at red frog beach. All were spectacular and worth a visit. We paddle boarded, snorkels and swam every chance we could. Even though we visited during the rainy season we would come back during any season. We were able to play games, watch movies, and overall just enjoy the views, conversations and beautiful catamaran. Our only regret is not getting to do the karaoke our last night. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, especially one that could handle my wife and I, 3 kids (18-8) and my 71 year old Mother."

The Hummingbird

The Hummingbird

10/10 Excellent
"We had an amazing adventure at the Hummingbird this past week. The atmosphere was breathtaking and surreal. Literally being in the jungle brought so many lovely sights and sounds- although it was a little noisy at night which some may not like. The food and drinks were outstanding as well and reasonably priced. The staff- Olivia, Aaron, Jeremy, Luis and others treated us like family. The pool was clean as was our room. The beach is gorgeous and quiet. Great beach to walk in solitude for miles. Waves are big this time of year so don’t expect to swim too much. Great little bars and restaurants along Bluff beach as well. The weather was a little rainy this time of year but that meant it was quieter in the area. If you want a quiet escape- this is the perfect place. We hope we are lucky enough to return one day!"

"The place is magical, right on the water, with a beautiful coral reef teeming with fish below for snorkeling. There's a small kayak for you to use; I used it to watch the sunset and it was beautiful. My wife loved this place. It's quiet, with a very peaceful vibe. It's about a 15-minute boat ride to get there. The owner, Philip, was very attentive and kind. This place definitely has a beautiful vibe; highly recommended."
