Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Colón Island

I pretty much have traveled all over the world and this is my favorite place I’ve ever stayed in. The balconies are beautiful and spacious. The pool area was perfect, kitchen is big if you like to cook. The little dock is so peaceful. It’s very peaceful and quiet but not too far from other restaurants and bars. The little beach bar next door is adorable with decent food and great drinks. We loved skully’s bar which was about a 15 minute walk down the road. To get into town is very easy. We used Jose’ as our taxi driver which was recommended by Connor. Also, I highly recommend getting a private boat for the tours of the other islands. Connor gave us a good recommendation. Bogo was our captain and he took us wherever we wanted to go. I don’t usually go back to same destination twice but I will definitely be back here again.

My son and I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Bluff Jungle House Laurel, and I can confidently say it was a slice of paradise that surpassed all my expectations! Nestled in the jungle, this two-story home provided the perfect mix of serenity and comfort. The exceptional service from the entire team truly made our stay memorable. Antonio was incredibly helpful and a lifesaver, while Mayra, the co-host, and Wendy, who attended to our service needs, were always ready to fulfill any requests, whether it was cleaning or laundry, making us feel completely at home. The house itself was spotless and well-designed, offering a sense of privacy that made it feel like our own secluded oasis. You genuinely feel as though you're in your own world here, with neighbors barely visible. My stay was filled with unforgettable memories that I will cherish forever. If you're seeking a tranquil retreat in a breathtaking location, look no further—this is the perfect destination!

My husband and I came to Panama for the first time along with another couple. The house was perfectly appointed, so much so that we all felt like we could live there permanently. The photos scarcely do the place justice. The large porch was fabulous and we spent much of the time there. The beds were comfortable and it was easy to take a water taxi where you needed to go. Steve, the host, gave great recommendations. Pat attention to his instructions if you are staying here. Everyone made us feel very welcome. Tera and Jesse, the owners were so gracious and hospitable. I highly recommend this if you are looking for a place off the beaten path and outside of Bocas Town.

Our little family lives every moment spent at the villa! We felt an amazing combination of luxury and home like feeling. Everything was clear, clean, well thought through! Morgan went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing stay. HIGHLY recommend! Thank you for the amazing stay!

10 Star Rating in our book!! Our stay at the Pool House at Paunch was exceptional to say the very least!!! First of all, Joanna is not your average host... she goes above and beyond in every way! She communicated with me multiple times before our trip and was open to any questions I had. She provides her guests with an invaluable amount of information which 100% made our trip beyond our wildest imagination! She provides this info via a link that can be printed for your reference which I HIGHLY encourage everyone do. We used this information everyday as a guide. EVERYTHING she recommends is the absolute best! She even has breakfast in the refrigerator for your first morning there! We loved every single thing about the house and location!! We felt so at home there! The pool was such a bonus! She is always available to help in any way. We would absolutely stay with her again. We left Bocas feeling like we had made a new friend. She puts her heart and soul into her properties!

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.

La casa de Sandra fue perfecta y tranquila, con un jardín precioso y privado, y ubicado justo en el centro de la isla. Sandra fue muy amable y comunicativa. Muy recomendable! ☺️

Este lugar es realmente una experiencia única ! Si queres disfrutar la naturaleza este es tu lugar . 10/10

Very nice place! The photos don’t do justice. About a 10 minute walk from the “main strip”. Very big rooms, two bathrooms. There is also a washing machine which was ideal! Any problems and you get communication straight away!

Julieta’s place is a bit higher than the rest of Old Bank village, so it’s very quiet and peaceful. She has a big garden surrounded by big trees and bamboos specifically her jackfruit trees attracted many birds which we could observe every day from our room! The trail to Wizards’ beach is right at the corner where we saw a couple of sloths! She is very friendly person who cares about us all through our stay by messages, despite she was off the island. Highly recommended!

5 jours incroyables Alex a été très réactif, très présent, prévenant. L’endroit est superbe, entre terre et mer, vue splendide, le gîte est tellement incroyable, un vrai petit cocon, la petite minette 🐈‍⬛ passe faire son tour tous les jours, câlins bisous. On l’adore La salle de bain grande, 2 grandes chambres avec Clim, très grand espace de vie, cuisine bien équipée. Il y a tout. À proximité de resto ( ciao pizza je recommande ) Taxi juste en bas pour vous emmener en ville en 10 minutes, 3 dollars par personne pour aller en ville, les taxis sont aussi géniaux. Pour conclure, le Airbnb d’Alex est vraiment vraiment genial ! Ps : attention aux guiboles on monte légèrement, c’est sur une petite colline mais vous allez en prendre plein les yeux !

Der Aufenthalt bei Dan hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Die Unterkunft liegt direkt am Meer und wenn man Glück hat, kann man sogar direkt vor Ort surfen. Das Haus ist sehr charmant und liebevoll eingerichtet und hier ist es im Vergleich zum Rest der Insel angenehm kühl, da es windig ist. Wir fanden es sehr geräumig zu viert - es hätten auch mehr Gäste Platz. 2 mal hatten wir sogar das Glück, dass uns ein Faultier direkt auf der Terrasse besucht hat - ein absolutes Highlight. Dan und Lily sind sehr nett und tolle Gastgeber! :)

Mi experiencia en este hospedaje fue excelente. El lugar es tal como se muestra en las fotos: limpio, cómodo y con una ubicación ideal. El anfitrión fue muy atento, siempre dispuesto a ayudar y brindar recomendaciones locales. Me sentí como en casa desde el primer momento. Sin duda, lo recomendaría y volvería a hospedarme aquí en futuras visitas. ¡Gracias por todo!

Lugar perfecto y cerca de las islas. Todo muy limpio y la señora super atenta. Gracias!

The place is spaciousness and comfortable. Looks just like the photos. Right on the water. Advisable to have water socks as entering the water is a shallow reef. Great for taking a dip but not for swimming. Nadia and Salvatore are excellent, friendly, accommodating and attentive hosts. Great cooks too! We loved staying here. Warmly recommended.

Beautiful balcony view! Amazing host! :)

Danielle's place is perfect, very clean, comfortable, is completely quiet during the night, the internet is fast.. it has everything you need for a nice stay. But the most important aspect is the location. It's basically in Colon's central area, you have the supermarket about 2 blocks, restaurants of all kind, the airport is just 3 blocks distance. This is the most perfect location, we will definitely return.

The place was as expected or better, the location is fantastic because it's in the center area but still not too close to the noisy places, being on the 3rd floor helped. I'd go back to Dea's place, no question about it. There are cheaper and more expensive options around but I think this is a very good sweet spot, everything was clean, we felt safe and comfortable at all times! We had no trouble with the stairs but keep in mind that if you go with someone who has difficulty walking, going up to the 3rd floor where the condo is will be a challenge, we were totally ok with that and as long as you have no mobility impediments, the place is easy to get to. There was a minimal confusion about the locking mechanism at the front door, the bottom locker was loose and we thought it would be a problem but Dea was very responsive and explained how to use the top locker, which was totally fine and eased all our worries. I would recommend it and come back as well.

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!
