It was an amazing experience. Pretty quiet and to get shopping or good food you need to take the warer taxi to boca Island but all in all pretty good experience.

Great location! Lovely paradise ❤️👏 this place is amazing, being at this island is magical. No coffee in the room, but there is coffee in the restaurant included every morning. No water in the room, in the restaurant they have or small market they have bottle water. One of the rooms didn’t have hot water and no cable, but the second have it nice. We love the experience, the owner a great person and the staff very nice too. Best place to stay, we saw all color fish 🐠 just there in the room deck, safe for kids, lovely views great location

The staff was truly some of the nicest people in the world. It hurts that the hotel itself was such a bad experience, because judgement on the people alone they were wonderful. Unfortunately, the hotel itself was not what apparently it used to be. There are roaches in one of the buildings (in one of our rooms), the showers were peeling or moldy with bad water pressure. The sheets on the bed were not always clean and the air-conditioning barely worked. The key cards to the doors easily demagnetized, and some rooms just wouldn’t open in general. We ended up having to get three different rooms (only 2 nights). The first room switch was because the staff couldn’t get us into the room, and the second switch was because we had roaches in the room all night.

I had a confirmed, non-refundable reservation for this property. The day before I was to arrive at the property, I get a notification saying that my reservation was cancelled, and instead it was rebooked for 3 days later. I couldn't believe that the resort and Expedia would do such a thing without my knowledge or consent. I wasn't even going to be in the area in 3 days, so for them to cancel a non-refundable, confirmed reservation and then willy-nilly rebook me for a night 3 days later without even asking me was appalling. Expedia should not allow its hotels to rebook guests at their own discretion, without the guest even knowing about it let alone agreeing to it. Just appalling. It ruined my vacation, since not only did I have to find another lodging for the night that they cancelled, I was stressed about them charging me for a non-refundable night that I didn't even book!

Quaint cabanas over the water. Great first time Bocas experience for the family. Restaurants within walking distance, swimmable beaches, sunrise out the back door.

Loved the owner Adriano and the over water bungalow experience. However due to our preference of crystal clear waters we were not comfortable jumping in off the deck when we saw a sting Ray under us. Also once you jump off you have no ladder or way to get back up so you would have to swim all the way to the beach to walk back to your condo. Loved the breakfast and water taxis noise did not bother us. Just not such a nice island or beaches like Red frog ( on Bastimentos) or we heard starfish beach ( on Isle colon) Enjoy it’s worth the cost and experience for a few nights

The property is a bit run down and could use some Reno’s. The concept was cute. We loved the deck off the back but there wasn’t any cushions for the wood lounger’s so it was pretty uncomfortable. The owner and his Dog are super nice.

This was my first visit to Bocas, so I don’t have the greatest barometer in comparing different places to stay in the area. Having just been to Costa Rica & Nicaragua in the weeks previous though, I’d say this was better than what I’d experienced in the neighboring countries. Staff were the nicest people and my little yellow cabin on the water for a week was magic !!

Location was amazing, right on the water. Easy to catch water taxi to any location. The only draw back is the water taxis travelled close to the location so there was some noise.

I had a good stay. The staff were friendly and the units over the water were really cool where you could look down and see fish, unfortunately there were small gnats that made it difficult to stay out too long (in late Nov). I'm a light sleeper but slept well in the room, which was a short water taxi to the much louder bar heavy parts of Bocas town. There were a few bar/restaurants you could walk on the island but also seemed like some rougher areas nearby. I found myself generally water taxiing back to Bocas town.

Great location, easy water taxi to the main town. Stay right over the water, only just be aware that you can hear the water taxis going back and forth..but that is also part of the ease of transport.

We stayed at El Faro Del Colibri for four nights during the first part of February. It was an unique experience sleeping on the water. A small nuisance for the sensitive could be the water taxis speeding by nearly all hours of the day and night. But that is a matter of opinion. At times, we enjoyed waving to those in the boats and also enjoyed the swaying of the home as a result of the boat's waves. When we revisit Bocas Del Toros, we will happily stay at El Colibri. We enjoyed being on the small island versus Bocas town. It is a short $2.00 boat taxi ride for a couple to travel back and forth. Everyone on the small island is pleasant and welcoming. We were even invited to a poker night by a group of locals at a nearby pizza cafe. Wifi was decent, showers were warm, and we had a little refrigerator in our room. I would recommend more shelving in the bathroom for convenience. But overall, we loved our stay.

I would have given 5 stars but we had issue trying to pay with credit card. There is only one ATM in Boca town and it ran out of cash, we had hard time trying to figure out how to pay. Had to withdraw cash from Chinese store paying 10% commission. Hotel's credit card system was broken. So they have to figure out this credit card system, if they want to provide better service. Other than that, everything was great.
