"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...

Top La Gruta Cave Hotel Reviews

Cabañas Naturaleza

8/10 Good

"房间晚上有蚊子，却没有驱蚊的喷药院里树上有一个啄木鸟，老在那边嗑木头，好像有人敲门"

Hotel Bocas del Toro

10/10 Excellent

"Great room overlooking the water with a nice comfortable covered balcony. Right in the middle of many bars restaurants and shopping. All of the staff were super friendly!"

Punta Caracol Acqua Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Nuestra experiencia en Punta Caracol fue muy bonita. Es un lugar encantador, rodeado de naturaleza, con una ubicación privilegiada y paisajes espectaculares. Nos encantó especialmente poder hacer snorkeling y disfrutar del mar. Es un lugar maravilloso para visitar en familia, ya que los niños disfrutan muchísimo de esta experiencia. Además, su ubicación es estratégica para conocer otros lugares de Bocas del Toro. Como aspectos por mejorar, consideramos importante mencionar que las habitaciones no cuentan con refrigerador y que, para conservar algunos alimentos o cargar los teléfonos, es necesario acudir al restaurante, lo cual resulta un poco incómodo. También notamos que algunas instalaciones muestran señales de deterioro y necesitan mantenimiento para conservar la belleza del lugar. A pesar de estos detalles, nos llevamos una experiencia muy bonita en familia. Es un destino con muchísimo encanto y potencial. Con algunas mejoras en sus instalaciones y comodidades, la experiencia sería aún más especial. ¡Sin duda, un lugar que disfrutamos mucho y que recordaremos con cariño!"

La Coralina Island House

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful property with many amenities and excellent breakfast options. Their restaurant was probably the best overall too. The morning yoga classes were an added bonus. La Coralina is about 15 minutes away from the town, so if you’re looking to walk around and be close to everything then this is not the right resort for you. They do have taxi service to and from the resort for $5 each person, which adds up pretty quickly. If you’re looking to get away from the noise and enjoy nature and sense of calm, then this is the right choice. I definitely do not recommend bringing children here, as they will be bored. Things I wished I knew ahead of time: 1. They will arrange for air port pickup 2. You can order anything on the breakfast menu. It’s all included and free. 3. The receptionist will arrange taxi rides to and from the resort. Just ask them ahead of time. 4. Get their WhatsApp number to communicate your travel to and from town. 5. Yoga included and no need to reserve. 6. Be sure you get the spa schedule ahead of time so you know about the activities. 7. You’re in the middle of the jungle so enjoy the trails. 8. When leaving the resort, walk to the right of the building to find a few nice spots with sandy beaches. There’s nothing going to the left side except dirt roads. You will need a taxi."

Tropical Suites Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We traveled with 2 other couples and had a lovely experience at Tropical Suites. Everyone from the front desk staff to the restaurant staff was pleasant and helpful. We ate in the on-site restaurant for several meals and the food was always tasty no matter the selection or time. Our room had a kitchen area and was a good size. They left complimentary champagne as a welcome gift. We travel to Bocas at least once a year if not more. This was our first stay here and we will absolutely be back. The hotel is centrally located steps away from the boat docks, shopping and cute cafes."

Surf Break at Paunch

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful eco-hotel. Very relaxing, beautiful view, and a very helpful host."

Oasis Bluff Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Es el mejor hotel en el que me he quedado. Todo el personal está atento para hacer tu estancia más fácil y placentera. Es un lugar limpio, tranquilo, con buenas comidas y todos dispuestos a ayudar a tener los mejores días de tus vacaciones. Especiales agradecimientos a los managers"

The Hummingbird

10/10 Excellent

"Stunning jungle retreat. So peaceful, wonderful food and accommodations with hummingbirds and wildlife! A place to relax."

Cosmic Crab Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone went above & beyond . The owner & all the staff especially the young woman managing the restaurant. The place is beyond cute . The owner is an artist . I stayed at resort the whole time to relax . I ate all my meals there & I am a foodie & they were all excellent. Something for everyone . My room was on the water with big glass sliding doors & A/C. Good for families & couples & singles of all ages . Wonderful."
