We stayed in Boca Chica to do a deep sea fishing trip. This hotel was a great place to stay at and the fishing charter could pick us up at the hotels dock. They also opened up the dining room a half hour early so we could have breakfast at 6:30 to make our 7:00 charter. They chef also created a special dinner for us with the Mahi Mahi we brought back for the day. The hotel rooms were very nice and clean. Boca Chica is a really quite area. There is no real 'town' and it is perfect if you are looking for peace and quite, but if you like to dine out and explore different things there is not much to do in this area of Panama other than fish.

I really liked the tranquility of this property the first time I stayed here, The staff are very friendly, and kind also. This time, I had even more problems with hot water in the shower. Then we ordered a lobster salad special not on menu, that was not much of anything. When I saw the $29 dollar price, I was really stunned. We also went on what was promoted as a sunset cruise on a small outboard motor boat for $90 dollars per couple that was a short bird watching with beer, wine, soda included. This was very disappointing also. Now I am rethinking ever going back.

The property is beautifully maintained with a view of the ocean and the islands. There are few viewpoints that have swinging benches, where you can enjoy spectacular views. There is even a small hike that takes you to Parrots’ sanctuary, we made a friend there. We enjoyed some quiet time and did some reading in hammocks down by the water with a nice breeze and ocean sounds.The cabins were all modern, air conditioned and clean. The two pools were spotless. The infinity pool had gorgeous views. There is tennis and basketball court available. The service, food and drinks were great. Our stay was wonderful and we enjoyed all the amenities very much! The staff were friendly and helpful. Our stay at Bocas Del Mar coincided with challenges getting back to the major cities. The hotel manager, Marcus, was extremely helpful in keeping us informed, negotiating with our car rental company about how to return the rented vehicle, and organising transport to David. Without his patience and his help, we would have struggled and he went above and beyond to help us out of a tricky situation.

Das Hotel ist frisch renoviert. Riesige Zimmer mit riesigen Panorama-Fenstern und einen herrlichen Blick auf die Bucht. Vom Hotel aus kann man verschiedene Touren zu den vielen Inseln in der Nähe buchen. Sehr zu empfehlen ist die Tour mit den 3 Inseln an einem Tag. Hier kann man herrlich schnorcheln und relaxen. Wir waren 5 Teilnehmer an Bord, es geht aber auch ganz privat. Weiter hat das Hotel einen Tennisplatz und 2 Pools mit dazugehörigen Liegen. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und reichhaltig. WLAN funktionierte auf dem gesamten Gelände hervorragend. Rund um das Gelände leben viele Vogelarten, Leguane und Affen. Es gibt sogar einen großen Vogelkäfig mit Ara's. Alles in Allem ist das Hotel sehr zu empfehlen.

We had some minor issues with hot water in our suite and our Wi-Fi failed one day but they did everything in their power to correct the issues as soon as possible.

My husband and I stayed in Villa #4 at Bocas del Mar Hotel and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was beautiful. Newly updated and a great view of the bay and the gardens. The restaurant staff are top notch. I can't say enough about the service. The front desk staff, again, just amazing. Customer Service at this resort goes above and beyond. The breakfast was fantastic and the dinners - both the food and the views - were spectacular. Tours were available and pick up is right at the resort's dock.
