Staying at Bambuda Lodge was definitely one of the best parts of our trip. The location is great, you have a really nice view from the terrace and we loved our canopy room. Even if Bambuda Lodge is a little bit more remote, you can easily get a water taxi or book one of the tours to explore other places. The staff was always very friendly and helpful. The food was good, especially the dinner was very delicious!

Very laid back and good value for your money. It’s part hostel and had great energy for a boring Monday night. The receptionist Nicole was amazing and very helpful.

Reliably hot showers, roof top seating, and complimentary coffee will always win me over. Private room even had a mini fridge and aircon which is quite luxurious by hostel standards.

    Great location and if you like to party it is the perfect spot to meet new people. Also, everyday new activities and you should make sure to be at the Filthy Friday party (everyone around is coming and the whole hostel is packed!).

    The location is perfect, just one min away from Bocas town. The hostel got a lot of potential, keep in mind is a party hostel so it's very loud, but if you are looking to meet new people this is the right place.
