Nowhere

8/10 Good

"Hello, I wanted to share my thoughts on my recent stay at Nowhere, which was truly a unique experience. The facility itself felt wonderfully lush and immersive, almost like stepping into a jungle. While I typically opt for all-inclusive resorts when I travel, this time I wanted to try something different, and Nowhere certainly delivered. The setting offered a secluded, off-the-grid atmosphere that was perfect for relaxing, yet it was conveniently just a short 7-10 minute drive from town. One aspect worth mentioning is the lack of air conditioning. Although this was clearly stated in the advertisement, my unfamiliarity with Panama's tropical climate made me underestimate how essential AC would be. Given the humidity and heat, it was a bit uncomfortable at times. Aside from that, the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating, always ready to help with anything we needed. The owner was especially delightful to speak with and provided helpful information about the surrounding areas. Overall, I would rate my experience at Nowhere an 8 out of 10. It offered a refreshing change from my usual travel choices, and I appreciated the tranquility and hospitality. Best regards, Wynonna Perez"

Cosmic Crab Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Cosmic Crab was one of the most memorable places I’ve ever stayed. As a solo female traveler, I immediately felt welcomed, safe, and comfortable. The property is family-owned, and you can truly feel that in the atmosphere. The owner is incredibly kind and made me feel at ease from the moment I arrived. The overwater bungalow was a dream come true. Falling asleep to the sound of the water and waking up to beautiful views every morning never got old. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for my stay. I also loved how walkable the area was. I enjoyed taking daily walks around Carenero, visiting nearby markets, and exploring the island. The food and drinks were fantastic, especially the Atlantis Colors cocktail and the bacon cheeseburger. The location was perfect because it felt peaceful and relaxing while still being close to everything. Honestly, I didn’t want to leave. I’ve only been home a day and I’m already looking at dates to come back. I would absolutely recommend Cosmic Crab to anyone visiting Bocas, especially solo travelers looking for a place where they’ll feel welcomed and cared for."

La Coralina Island House

8/10 Good

"I called a week ahead to make sure I could get surfing lessons. The instructor texted, “The plans for you is Carenero Beginners or tiger tail, depend of the sizes of the waves. Is all included, only you have to bring one towel😉🌊” When I arrived, she said, “Because I never heard from you, I cancelled the reservation.”"

Cabañas Naturaleza

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location and overall clean. We enjoyed our stay there. It was quiet and surrounded by trees but short walk to Skully's - a good bar & restaurant by the beach and short taxi to the town center. The dipping pool was nice. Bed and bath were comfortable. The room was clean but it had a musty smell like it needs airing. The kitchen is located outside and was well supplied with kitchenware. We didn't get any advance instructions for check-in so I had to call the property owner for instructions. The owner was otherwise responsive via Whatsapp since then. The signage and entrance to the property can be easily missed, and we had to direct our taxi drivers where to stop (Skully's is a landmark they're familiar with. We just ask them to stop before it). Overall, I recommend the place and would return again."

Jungle House, 100m From the Beach, With Private Pool

10/10 Excellent

"Jungle House is a beautiful and serene place to stay. Surrounded by vibrant flora and interesting fauna, it is nicely protected from and close to the spectacular playa bluffs.The layout encourages outdoor living, while the bedrooms are quiet and comfortable refuges."
