Beachfront vacation rentals in Colón Island

The jungle tree house was just what we imagined it would be and more. Peaceful, quaint and just the right size for our family of 3. Being surrounded by monkeys swinging in the trees and tropical birds signing in the distance was almost surreal. Katarina was an amazing host. Very attentive, proactive, and a pleasure to communicate with. She went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met and helped us craft some unforgettable experiences while in Bocas del Toro. We highly recommend this accommodation!

Jennis' place was exactly as described in the middle of the jungle, very private, close to nature and as in the photos. The cabin is super equipped and you have everything you need. There are so many different animals to watch. The hut is for real nature lovers and gives you a real jungle feeling from the humidity to the wonderful soundscape and the authentic rainwater outdoor shower. Jenni is a great hostess, always super accessible and so eager to do everything to ensure you have a pleasant stay. We definitely recommend the place for anyone who wants a few days of absolute peace and nature :)

Bill was a gracious host and knew the island like the back of his hand. I would 1000% recommend his place to anyone looking to come to Bocas. He’s is extremely helpful and accommodating. Thanks!

Stayed here for 3 months. The location is perfect, just far enough away from the main town but still only a short walk into town. And there is a supermarket a few doors down that has anything you need. The views over the bay are stunning and well worth the stay alone. As pictured, the apartment is large has what you need for a short or long stay, and Calvin and his wife maintain the property well. Wifi was good, can drop out occasionally but thats the island infrastructure. The walls & floor aren't completely sealed/insulated so you will hear everything from your neighbours. Not a problem most of the time, but can occasionally get a neighbor playing loud music late at night. Some ear plugs might come in handy

Our host was very helpful. it was a perfect location for our group. the view from the large deck/outdoor seating area was beautiful. kitchen is very large and well equipped. rooms were comfortable and clean. all this and over the water. I recommend this place %100.

This little piece of heaven is absolutely magical. Our family stayed a week and everyday was a new adventure. Even just driving down the beachside jungle road to get to the property was an incredible, unexpected joy. Every morning we took a beautiful walk to swim at playa bluff for sunrise then cooked breakfast in the well equipted kitchen. The adventures on Bocas are endless. I recommend renting a car or other mode of transportation because, even though it is rather close to a lot of things, it is remote. We loved driving further down the road to some of the beach restaurants (BomBom was our favorite). Every night we fell asleep to the sound of the waves and each morning arose to the sounds of the monkeys and birds just off the balcony. For our young children, who have never experienced a tropical vacation, this was truly magic. We laughed as we watched the monkeys swing above us and fell in love with the atmosphere of this special place. We will certainly be back!

The photos do not do this beautiful house justice. It is gorgeous and beautifully decorated and kept. The views are incredible, lots of extras like kayaks, snorkels and masks, and fresh eggs from the chickens on the property! Don't think about it, book it!

We had such a great stay at Marketa & Ryan’s cabin. From the moment they picked us up, we felt genuinely welcomed. Definitely take them up on that offer—it’s a beautiful drive and a great way to settle in. The cabin is beautiful surrounded by jungle but just a short walk from the beach, bars, and restaurants. On our last day, a family of monkeys visited and played in the trees next to us—such a magical moment! Tip: stock up on breakfast supplies, snacks, and drinks in town (no need to bring water—they’ve got a big dispenser for guests). There aren’t any shops nearby, but the local restaurants are great. The area has so much to offer—surfing, snorkeling, biking, ATV tours, dolphin watching… You won’t be short of adventures. We spent our days exploring and loved returning to the cabin each evening. It’s super comfy, with a cozy bed, hot shower, soft towels, and a perfect jungle breeze (plus a fan) that kept us cool at night. They have created something really special here—we loved it!

The apartment is a rare find in Bocas, fully equipped, AC in the living room/kitchen, it has everything you might need, very comfortable, Raúl is an excellent host, thanks for letting us stay at your place.

Lovely place and great people. Wonderful view and animals everywhere around. Had a great time here

This place was amazing, best Airbnb we’ve stayed in 10 meters away from the beach, hosts were always responsive and very helpful it is paradise.

Peaceful, relaxing getaway! The Firefly was a serene place to spend a few days and fall asleep to the sound of the waves. The path was well marked and well lit, and the hotel felt safe and quiet. All of the staff was super friendly and had great recommendations. I can't wait to stay there again!

We had an incredible stay at Skully's hotel! This oceanfront oasis was a unique and special getaway, just 10 minutes outside of town. Our room was oceanfront, and it was such a treat to fall asleep to the sound of crashing waves. The beds were super comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. Skully and Rhonda, and the staff were absolutely wonderful. They made us feel right at home, as did the locals, like Robbie, who often hung out at the lively bar. There were fun activities daily, making the place feel vibrant and full of life, a welcoming community vibe. We loved exploring the area and enjoyed some of the on-site restaurants. The BBQ place was a standout, and we also enjoyed the pizza and breakfast options. However, I wouldn’t recommend Ohana down the road the view was nice, but the food and service didn’t quite match up. For a great dining experience, try Masana, It was fantastic! Thank you to everyone at Skully’s for making our stay so memorable, you're much appreciated!

The Jungle House at Playa Bluff was a great getaway destination for our 2 families, with 4 adults and 6 children, ages 4-11. The pool was great and the sleeping arrangements worked well for us. There is a decent kitchen, but we mostly ate at nearby restaurants or on our daily adventures. The house is about a 25 min taxi ride from the main town and the road can get soupy, but any of the truck taxis can easily get to the house. The beach is stunning, although not great for swimming with rip tides and currents. The host was super responsive to all questions and I would highly recommend this house. We even saw sloths and monkeys right around the house.

Joanna’s place is fantastic and the whole experience is made even better by her warm welcome and generosity. She kindly provided us with breakfast provisions and was extremely helpful throughout even allowing us a late checkout before our afternoon flight. The garden and pool areas are very tranquil and it is just a short walk to 3 great places to eat and drink. We would highly recommend a stay here and hopefully will be back ourselves in the future.

A dream come true. The whole staff is welcoming and invites you into their home. They make you feel safe and the room is impeccable. The water is amazing and you could see the fish through the floor. Our dock was boss….. They Intentionally stocked fridges with all kinds of drinks and the breakfast was delicious. Storing our bags and using the coming space when our flight was delayed came in clutch. The location is pretty ideal with both transplants and local community living together so you can see the neighborhood they are intentionally creating. They are amazing we will never forget them and are coming back. Oh and they beautifully did our laundry, folded everything, even dropped it at our door like what gems. They helped us in a tricky situation as a tourist and came up with creative solution. They go above and beyond as host and will recommending 1000 por cento!!!

The place is wonderful. There is a coral reef right in front of the villa and kayak and paddle board to enjoy the crystal clear water. Philip responded very quickly and helped us at all times.

Britta and Alex place is a little gem in the jungle. Yet, just a few meters to a very nice beach. Bluff beach is not really swimmable but extremely beautiful to walk. The trail behind the beach is you plenty of chance to spot wild life. We saw sloths (with baby) hauler monkeys and beautiful birds. Tukans and others are resident on the island. And not to forget the red frogs everywhere. The accommodations are very nice. Clean and everything you may need. The hosts are very responsive and will accommodate with anything if possible. Gracious hosts that make you feel at home. Place is very private. Beds are comfortable. Breakfast was delicious!! Nice restaurants within walking distance. Take the guided frog tour while there, very interesting. Nice place to be away from hectic life. Will come again.

This place was absolutely beautiful we had the room with the balcony, the view was amazing and the room was VERY clean and comfortable I’m a very particular person lol

Clodine was absolutely wonderful and a great host. Helped us with everything we needed. Her place is like a Bohemian oasis full of art and trinkets. She is free spiritied and it shows in the place. Don't stay here expecting the 4 Seasons. It is a well located place right on the water. The added breakfast service was great. Staying here helped us to understand how people here live in unison with the land. We saw how wasteful we are here in America. It was a great experience. Clodin gets an A!

Really enjoyed our stay here. Great host and incredible views.

Beautiful balcony view! Amazing host! :)

Helena is such a lovely, warm- hearted person. She took time to make sure, we know everything in the house, including what to do if there is a power cut. Keep in mind, it's a bio house, so everything is run by the solar panels outside. There is a small store in Bastimentos Town, but it's better if you do the shopping in Colon Town. We really enjoyed being surrounded by the nature, listening to the rain.. We can recommend Helena and her house 100% and we will for sure be back.
