I stayed in the sea view dorm for 4 for this part of my trip and the dorm was lovely. Great facilities, lovely view, expensive treat and wished I'd not messed my dates up as I might have spoilt myself and stayed there rather than going to the 6 bed dorm as the 4 bed dorm I first stayed in was true to life in the pictures and I got lulled into a false sense of security by the pictures on the web site showing the 6 bed dorm which in fact looked nothing like the pictures which was a shame. This party of my stay exceeded my expectations the 2nd but didn't x

I had an amazing stay at the bambuda lodge, the staff are all super nice. Even with the construction I just didn't really want to leave. I have never had this good food at a hostal. Also I would love to thank Martha and Fredo for the lovely jungle hike. You can also see sloths from the pool and dolphins playing in the bay.

Staff were amazing, attentive and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. Great location. AC would have been nice, but was fine with the fan. Recommended!

The owner was always available for assistance and there was always someone at the front desk/bar with a smile. The lounge/kitchen area with tables and hammocks overlooking the ocean and islands was such a nice place to relax.

The atmosphere there was great! Things to improve: electric plugs on each bed (just one or two in each room for 4 people) , and bigger places to accommodate your belongings (small lockers in the public hall)

The property is exceptionally clean, the wifi is great, the kitchen large and easy to cook in, the staff are excellent! Juan made me feel very welcome in the space. The location is perfect if you don’t want to be right in the middle of the nightlife but still be just a few minutes walking to anything you need. I also really enjoy watching the planes land from the balcony area. Would definitely stay again!

El Jaguar was the first hostel where I have arrived by boat; there are hammocks and loungers near the jetty where you can sit and look out over the lagoon. There's a well organised kitchen with huge fridge freezers and the staff are friendly and helpful.

Amazing deck, can swim directly from hostel, nice tunes and food. Welcome drink on arrival. Activities organised. Off the centre of town but not a bad thing as there’s currently construction in town.

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.
