Impossible to leave… tooo Nice place, atmosphère in this just one year old hotel ! You will appreciate the deck ( ponton in French ), the music, the vieW, the rooms ( I was in a dorm, perfect ), the yoga classes very close from the hotel , and if you wish to add some nights to the other bambuda ( bambuda lodge), your stay in Bocas will be full of different aspects and activities !

One of the nicest hostels I've ever stayed in. The dorms are nice, the property is beautiful, and the pool is incredible. We loved the restaurant and the staff were exceptional. Don't forget about the slide!

Excellent stay with great location. We had pleasent 2 night stay in quirky and charming house. Super host Katarina with her tips regarding our needs. House is located close to city centre and that was our main goal for short stay. On the other hand it was far from noisy part of the town. We chilled during breakfast on small front patio hanging out on hammock and watching interesting live of Bocas. Kitchen is well equipped and overall very interesting furnitures and styl of house gave us amazing impression. Highly recommended for everyone. We stayed in room nr 1 and we very happy with our stay.

Great location and if you like to party it is the perfect spot to meet new people. Also, everyday new activities and you should make sure to be at the Filthy Friday party (everyone around is coming and the whole hostel is packed!).

The location is perfect, just one min away from Bocas town. The hostel got a lot of potential, keep in mind is a party hostel so it's very loud, but if you are looking to meet new people this is the right place.
