Private Bungalows

DaurenRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We had such a lovely time staying at Ingrid’s house. The bungalow on the water was really cute and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Ingrid was a wonderful host. We snorkeled every day and went to town a couple of times for lunch and to purchase some groceries. We cooked every day so stock up on supplies. There are staples in the cabin like basic spices and oil. Such a peaceful and picturesque spot. We hope to be back soon.
An over-the-water cabin is showcased, featuring a bright yellow exterior and a spacious balcony. The cabin rests on pilings above the calm water, with seating visible on the deck. A serene landscape with boats is seen in the background under a partly cloudy sky.

"Beached Bungalow" on the Pacific Ocean in Panama

JonRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We really enjoyed the surroundings. Being right on the water, watching the tides come and go and all of the wildlife, particularly the birds was very interesting. This is great place to go for privacy, and a feeling of being in the middle of nature. Sue is fantastic, very helpful and very accessible. 5 stars!

My Girl Nicol Apartment

ChrisRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I spent a month here. We felt at home right away. Exceptionally clean, everything you need in the kitchen, lots of towels and access to laundry on site for free. Walking distance to town or beaches, easy to hail taxis and close to bus stop. Beautiful sunsets everyday. Al and Urania were always available by phone or in person to help with any questions. Wifi and smart tv . Kayaks available to use on the bay. Highly recommend staying here.

Bocas Villas

SarahRating, 5 stars5 months ago
A quiet paradise over the water. The only sounds were birds and waves, and the occasional boat passing by. Connect to the ocean and nature day and night by watching birds and fish and bats right from your dinner table. If you're looking for some peace and quiet - this is the place for you!

Floating Home Sum-Beach Sum-Where Bocas del Toro

VeroniqueRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Where to begin! Shelley and Dave were very friendly, easy to reach and it was a very memorable moment at their floating house. We took a tour with them on their boat. They showed us many places (nice birds, beach, snorkeling, even dolphins!), it was really worth the additional charges! We could see a sloth and monkeys right near their house, do kayak and snorkeling around the floating house, look at the stars and ear the forest wake up in the morning from the bed (which were really comfortable). What a wonderful moment we had there. We would recommend 100%!

Tropical Waterfront Home

EllenRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The location is great, right on the water and steps from the Bocas Dive Center. The apartment was neat and clean, and Jason and Naomi were very helpful, providing us with lots of tips. The bedroom situation was a bit unusual, each having its own entrance, but overall, it was comfortable.

Small Caribbean apartment on the water

SamanthaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This is a one of a kind Airbnb! It’s right on the water and has beautiful deck to watch the sunset. The kayak was a fun bonus and made for great adventure to the floating bar. The bed was huge and comfortable, the bathroom was also spacious with hot water. The mini fridge was helpful to have and though we mostly ate out, the little outdoor kitchen space was great to have as an option. It’s walking distance from the ferry/the main part of town with restaurants and shops. The hosts gave us helpful recommendations for where to eat, about the water taxis, and even helped us launch the kayak into the water. We really enjoyed staying here and would recommend it!
