The room was dark, the bed dirty. ##### Sina Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Wendy 13 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This place has a good thing going but the check-in was lacking. I was exhausted and patiently waited for 3pm to come so i could get some rest. It took 28 minutes, after asking ywice about the room tone taken to the room. ##### Wendy Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Huyen 10 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful water view lounge, restaurant and room Lovely ocean view suite which was nice, quiet and peaceful to watch the days go by while working. Although early check-in wasn't available, there is luggage storage and access to the common lounge/restaurant area which was a beautifully decorated space to enjoy with the water swing, floaties and access to swim right from the deck. The front desk team were extremely friendly and helpful with checking in on stay and providing local information with tours. I loved that there was filtered water available to guests to reduce plastic bottles. Although one night the water cut-off but this is common on the island as they depend on rain so use mindfully. The included breakfast was also nice with international vegetarian options. Would not hesitate to stay here again, although it is a bit on the higher end if wanting the overwater rooms. ##### Huyen Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Oneil 31 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Phenomenal Property! Bambuda is exceptional! From the moment you enter the property, the décor amazes you. From the fantastic wall art to all the wooden fixtures and furniture, everything is designed to impress. Check-In was a breeze and though there was no hot water in the newer section of the building, I didn't miss it because the water was room temperature. The private rooms are beautifully appointed with breathtaking views of the ocean. I loved that the hand and body wash in the bathroom are eco-friendly. In fact, the lodge is very eco-conscious. The bar/restaurant serves delectable food at reasonable prices. Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with my stay and would book again in a heartbeat on my next trip back to Bocas del Toro! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/76FADF8AC092CD5C7D1BCCB7DF61E1090A3120B41661913638415.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9E31B3BBC7DDEFB0B77AFA43F7A5459F53678F821661913647984.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3D0C08261035416AA00F4E226CE4E88E634813061661913665280.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8861AEAD708BCC3C7358420E5CC519D0EFA41D711661913691611.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Oneil Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 9 Dec 2022 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not so good stay! We had a two nights stay at Bambuda during our visit to Colon Island. The premium queen room that we booked felt small, and apparently none of the rooms at Bambuda have hot water for shower. So we had no other choice but cold shower, which was unpleasant since the water is quite cold in November. We feel the owner should at least mentioned in their listing description that hot water is not available so guests know up front when booking. Adding to that, my husband had a near miss incident when the shower head came crashing to the floor narrowly missing his head (would have been a decent bruise otherwise). When reported, the staff didn’t seem to care at all and did not fix the shower head issue until the following day. So no shower for one night. Not to mention shampoo and conditioner were not provided. It seems like they don’t want us to take showers at all. Also, the towels have stained spots, and the hotel did not have any extra for replacement when we requested. Unfortunately We can’t recommend this place due to the bad experience during our stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Maria Fernanda 9 Sept 2025 Un día no nos arreglaron la habitación, tuvimos que pedir que la arreglaran y habíamos estado todo el día fuera. Adicional en el restaurante no dejaban cargar la cuenta en la habitación, esto es incómodo porque toca estar pagando por cada consumo que se hacíamos. ##### Maria Fernanda Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### cecilia 7 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities El hotel es muy bonito, construido sobre el mar y ofrece unas vistas espectaculares. El personal es muy agradable y se ofrecen bebidas y comidas muy ricas y a un precio razonable. El desayuno muy rico, y tienes alternativas suficientes para variar todos los días. La habitación está decorada con gusto y las camas eran muy cómodas.
