Breakfast was not as good as dinner. The bathrooms didn’t function well

We visited Panama for the second time, and once again, we absolutely loved it. While looking for a beautiful place to stay, we came across this little hidden gem 💍– and what a find it was! Arrival & Welcome We were picked up by a private boat and warmly welcomed. The boat ride took around 45 minutes and was truly enjoyable. Along the way, we received interesting information about the surrounding islands – and even spotted dolphins! Upon arrival, we were greeted with a delicious welcome cocktail before our first meal. Such a lovely touch!☀️😍 Room The room was spacious and very comfortable. We’ve seen a lot of bathrooms throughout Panama, and many of them lack a proper shower. But here – the shower was fantastic! Great water pressure and lovely hot water – such a treat. :) Breakfast Breakfast was amazing. The host really listened to our preferences, and I was thrilled to have my fried egg every morning – along with fresh fruit and avocado. A perfect start to the day! Lunch Lunch was absolutely delicious – we had shrimp with coconut rice and plantains. A real taste of local cuisine that felt authentic and lovingly prepared. Dinner The highlight of our meals was definitely pizza night on our last evening! It was such a fun, communal experience with homemade pizza in creative and tasty varieties. So cool – and honestly, unforgettable. Surroundings The water around the property was crystal clear – it felt like swimming in a private aquarium. We saw a small shark, a stingray, colorful fish, and more – all right in front of our room. I’m usually a bit hesitant in the water, but here, I felt completely safe and at ease. The trees, the light, the tranquility – I can’t even describe how beautiful it was. Truly one of my personal highlights – such peace and connection with nature. Activities The hosts’ children were incredibly kind and welcoming.

A big thank you to Federico and Josephine for their incredible welcome and their kindness! We had a memorable stay, despite the bad weather, they took care of us and above all... they cook divinely well. We particularly appreciated the fact that the products used for cooking came directly from the garden or from local producers, as well as the homemade bread prepared for breakfast! The place is beautiful, view on the bay, you can borrow a paddle or a Kayak to go around and meet the dolphins! In short, the Dolphin is a real paradise as much for its location as for its beauty and hospitality!

Its a beautiful house, basic and at the same time very comfortable with everything you need. You can see the place is built and decorated by people who know what you need when backpacking. We visited during the rainy season and the restaurants of the resorts nearby were partly closed, but when open had good food.

Beautiful place to stay. The nature is unique. Bungalows are clean, spacious with all you need. Comfortable bed and amazing view. Nice house reef. Tasty food.

This place is something else, a little treasure lightyears away from the tourist crowds of Bocas town. Benoit and Fabienne have made this place to truly stand out and have it's onw, unique thing. From the cool pool area, to the chic restaurant with funky music, to the spotless modern and beautiful villas, everything is spot on. You can borrow kayaks and sup-boards for free and go exploring the mangroves. An then there is the food. We stayed 5 nights and loved the three-course dinners (25$/person). When you get a French lady to cook fillet mignon for you in a secluded place like this, it is truly an experience. Everything we ate was delicious, from breakfast to lunch (try chicken salad and the pastas!) to the candle lit dinners. Also nice cocktails! If you want to get away from everything for a few days, this is the place to go! Thank you so much for your kindness and - well, everything! -Johanna & Tomi

Cami and her brother were wonderful hosts. Food was absolutely delicious and the views were spectacular. Free kayaks included to take out at any point. Beverages made with fresh herbs from the garden. Lovely experience all around for some relaxation

The staff were fabulous, the setting was beautiful but the showstopper was the food. Some of the best meals I’ve ever eaten and able to cater for dietary requirements (gluten free) really well so I didn’t miss out on the experience. The table was also so beautifully set for each meal - we really enjoyed our experience there.

New property with great remote location and very nice staff . Has everything you need . View from the room is great , close to all attractions, very nice design .
