We have just spent nine of the most amazing, relaxing, fun-filled days at Bluff Beach. We rented out the whole beach house for three children, parents and both sets of grandparents. The beach house is perfect for a group this size with plenty of space and great rooms for all. We also had Ron's chef, Nicole, cook lunch and dinner... More

This was our second location we stayed at in the Bocas region and it did not disappoint! Ron was super helpful with everything including helping us book our flights to and from Panama City! We traveled with friends and the 'Las Palmas Casita' was the perfect little home away from home that fit us four very comfortably. Bluff Beach is... More

My husband and I stayed at Bluff Beach in February for a getaway without our kids. Bluff Beach Retreat was everything we wanted and more. If you want perfect accommodations, a most gracious host, and a pristine setting, look no further. This is no doubt the best place to stay in Bocas. You're just far enough away from it all... More

Bluff Beach retreat is so well thought out in every detail. We were very impressed with the main house and how beautifully it was designed and built. Ron is very good at what he does and he has all the right connections for fun day trips at a reasonable cost for a family of 5. The food here is so... More

I brought a yoga group to Bluff Beach Retreat in February for a week. It was really great. We rented the full house and one of the casitas. Accomodations were very comfortable, Ron was super to work with from start to finish, helping with numerous questions and organizing day trips for our group. The setting is so peaceful and off...

This was our last stop during our family trip to Panama & did we leave happy! Wow! Ron (the owner) is a wonderful man! He went out of his way to insure we have a good experience.

We stayed for 5 nights. It was quiet and comfortable and looked to be the nicest place on Bluff Beach. Breakfast was amazing each morning. Ron was hugely helpful with daily activities and dinner planning. You can walk or bike ride to 2-3 different places for dinner or cook your own. Beach is beautiful but mostly too rough for swimming... More
