Althought S Boutique Hotel wasn't in our plans, we we're beyond glad to experience it. We had a disappointing AirBnB nearby for two nights, which we ended up cancelling, leaving a day early. In this light, we booked S Boutique Hotel and messaged them, letting them know our situation and see if we could at least leave our bags and wait around before check-in. We made it to S around 9am. The first thing that called our attention was the thoughtfulness in design, respecting the natural elements, showcasing beautifully arranged wood, which dominates the landscape, supported by elegantly exposed concrete, all encompassed by the lush greenery around Isla Colon, with tasteful touches of glass, white contrasting pool chair sets, black painted bamboo dividers, etc. But the most striking aspect of S was the warm smile and professional behaviour of Jean. He immediately made us feel welcome, offering us coffee (which, again, comes in beautiful and thoughtful tableware) and check-in us smoothly. His conduct is one of competence, politeness, mixed with gentleness and friendliness, but most noticeably, humbleness and unpretentious, a rare combination we did not encounter much in Panama. Since we didn't had data, we couldn't see that Jean already had replied regarding our bags, reiterating us that the room was ready and just after our coffee, he guided us to it. The room follows the same natural theme. Concrete, white, wood, glass, elegant details in wicker. A citrussy essential oil hit us softly upong entering our room, enhancing our stay even further. Late at night, for some reason, water wasn't coming from the shower. I went down to ask Jean, which, along one of the owners, immediately went and fixed the issue in a matter of minutes. Again, the effectiveness in problem solving along with professionality in the way everyone at S carry themselves speaks highly of not just the Hotel, but the ideas, values and passions that had led this hotel to be made.

This place is stunning. Our room had a balcony overlooking the bay which we could watch for hours, you might spot dolphins! Right from the start Feder and Remo couldn’t do enough for you, extremely helpful with anything you need, days out, boat trips etc. Every single meal is amazing, it’s all fresh produce from their garden or local and you can really tell, I think they should do a recipe book because I’d buy it! The surrounding grounds are beautiful, the trees and palms are stunning and bring in wonderful birds. If you feel this is too quiet one day Bocas is only 30 mins by boat and any day trips are available. We’d love to come back one day, it’s a bit of paradise. Thank you Remo, Feder, Yu and Marcus.

FAQs about hotels in Bocas del Toro

What guests said about Bocas del Toro:

10

It’s very weather dependent!

It’s very weather dependent! And it probably will rain at some point. Definitely take a boat trip, but you can save money taking a water taxi rather than committing to an all day trip. I highly recommend staying in Big Creek, it’s very pretty and mellow and just a couple of kilometres outside Bocas. Bocas town is very small and a bit scruffy, there’s not much to do except go to bars and restaurants. Cycling is a great way to get around. Isla Colon is really worth exploring, you can visit the jungle and waterfalls as well as find lovely beaches. You’ll need transport like an electric bike or scooter. The whole area is abundant with wildlife.

We enjoyed The Restaurante Bar El Pirata and Buena Vista...

We enjoyed The Restaurante Bar El Pirata and Buena Vista both of which had excellent seafood and were on the water and the oceanfront scenery is beautiful. We enjoyed taking a boat around the islands. Getting around can be a challenge due to construction but the taxis are great. The best part was relaxing by the water.

Bocas Town offers many services (supermarkets, pharmacy, cafes) and seaside hotels with cafe-bars around well-designed docks. It is a good place to find tour operators and sign up for day tours to some of the prime beaches (Bluff, Estrella/Starfish, Wizard, Isla Pajaros, Isla Zapatillas) and resorts (Red Frog, Nayara, Playa Tortuga, Bocas Villas etc) in the different areas of the Bocas del Toro Archipelago.

Wait another year or so until the infrastructure...

Wait another year or so until the infrastructure construction is completed: concrete sidewalks, streets paved, and storm drainage completed. There are too many restaurants serving just hamburgers or pizza. When is the water from the tap going to be drinkable?

it depends what people are looking for.

it depends what people are looking for. Its good as a starting point for day trips, but don't book via street vendors, I got ripped off. The town is crowded, the main road was dug up, but never fixed, when it rain's it's a mess. There are a few nice clothing stores. The food was mostly fried. There are a few nice hotels, I walked into one, it was a dive center. Its better to stay on one of the many islands.

The weather was sunny and warm.

The weather was sunny and warm. The taxi boats to beautiful islands were convenient. Red frog beach and Zapatillas beaches were beautiful! The water was warm. The people were friendly. We saw sloths ,monkeys, red frogs, starfish and dolphins. There were plenty of restaurants, grocery stores and bars. A week in Bocas del Toro was fun, relaxing and enjoyable!

Excelent choice in Bocas Town. Very good location. Close (by walk) to main boat docks and restaurant and bars. In pool area is very good chilli vibe. Staff is really nice and helpful, especially on recepcion. They organized everything for us, even the tours and boat took us on the hotel pier (so you dont need to negotiate with locals on street).

Las Olas Hostel is the perfect spot in Bocas del Toro, sitting right on the water with amazing views and just a five-minute walk from the center of town. They make it super easy to book tours and boat taxis. Everyone is welcoming, and always happy to help.
