Everything about this place was excellent. Location, staff, service, cleanliness, food. These people really know how to run a hotel smoothly. I hope to be able to return to Bocas Del Mar in the future. It was an excellent vacation from my retirement.

Having stayed here for 3 nights after a pretty rushy ten days crossing over Costa Rica, we really enjoyed this Hotel. Excellent service, good kitchen and the best sea/island view you can imagine.
