The owners of the hotel were not very friendly and welcoming. There was hardly any enthusiasm towards us as guests. The room is new and clean although there is nothing more included in the price, breakfast cost extra for example.

We stayed here for 3 nights. We paid $35 for a private room with private bathroom. The room and linen were both very clean and the room was serviced and towels changed daily. The owner was very friendly and was willing to help us with our Spanish but there often isn't anyone at reception to ask questions about the island... More

Although not near the Almirante-Isla Colón ferry dock, it is relaxing, great infraestructure and good meals (actually cheaper than most restaurants). It is near the shore, so it's easy for when you book your trips with the captains and/or tour guides. The price is good for what you get. I would recommend them to improve is that when you go...

Casa Max has good sized,clean rooms most with a balcony. The rooms can get pretty humid & have fans. Whilst we were there they put in air con in another room,so I'm guessing it won't be long before they all have it. There is a hostel over the road which can get pretty noisy but that's the only real drawback.... More

Stayed here for a week while doing lots of trips around Bocas. Had a room with a shared balcony overlooking the sea and the street. It was nice to be a few minutes walk from town and the only real noise is from the party hostal opposite which stops the music around 12am. Our room was large but the backroom... More

Came for 3 nights, stayed for 7 nights... wished we stayed longer!!! Excellent rooms. Contemporary bathrooms with actual hot water (not just the shower head heaters). The owner kindly let us change rooms after 2 nights (from #13 to #11) for the same price, then we had a bigger room with an ocean view- but it was the down season.... More

mmmm….what do you feel like tonight? If it’s ultra-fresh, organic, and local Karmaway has it on the menu. From the drinks at the bar (passionfruit margarita’s and the signature strawberry jagermeister that arrives as a complimentary post-meal kiss) to the food, which is inventive, impeccably presented, and amazingly tasty, David and Stephen are doing it right in Bocas del Toro....

Great value. I can imagine it getting loud when there are people in the restaurant but we were lucky and enjoyed a queit and nice... More

Beatiful big rooms with good bed and firm matras. The new restaurant by the hotel, 'Karmaway' is delicious and different. For a midrage price you find luxery diner. If it's on the menu, try the lobsterravioli. It's amazing!
