ESTUVIMOS EN EL PARAÍSO
Pros:

La ubicación de la habitación, la vista y la privacidad fue lo mejor. Fue un lujo poder mirar en la noche los peces y sorpresa "las rayas" mientras te sentabas en las sillas de playa frente al bulgalow. Y en la mañana ver el amanecer frente a tu puerta, no tiene precio.

Cons:

En la noche había demasiada iluminación que entraba por las ventanas. Recomiendo unas cortinas más oscuras. Me gustaría que tuviese máquinas expendedoras o un kiosko para compra de alimentos y/o bebidas, ya que el alojamiento SOLO INCLUYE EL DESAYUNO.

Cabaña sobre el mar
Pros:

Disfrutar de un atardecer en el muelle de tu cabaña sobre el mar y disfrutar desde tu cama del amanecer

Cons:

Nos hubiera gustado que el muelle tuviera una pequeña escalera para subir

Pros:

A pesar de una mala primera noche, nos dieron solución a todo y pasamos unos días muy agradables en un lugar privilegiado. Muy atentos con nuestra hija y como atendieron nuestras necesidades. Lugar para volver sin duda!

Best place to stay in Bocas island area
Pros:

Best place to stay in the Bocas area. Carenero island has a real sandy beach and coral and is only few minutes from Bocas town ferry. It also has several nice restaurants (Bibi's) and you avoid the 'caribbean-vibe' that haunts Bocas town. We had the pleasure to stay in the 'light house', but the apartments behind it are good as well and you avoid the noise by the nearby Aguas disco that continues until deep into the night. With the airco on and and windows shut, also the light house wss quiet. Excellent breakfast ovrrlooking the bay.
Very friendly owner gave us multiple recommendations; north beaches on Bastimentos are great for views but poor for sminning, south beaches are good for swimming but have jellyfish. Carenero beach has a sandy swmiing part and a coral part and some star fish. Best trip to take was daytour to Zapatillo, with dolphins, monkeys, snorkeling and insta-worthy swimmable beaches, plus lunch at the Bastimentos national park. Pickup from the lighthouse pier is also a plus.

Cons:

The nearby disco may be great for young tourists, but it spreads its noise across the water all over the Bocas town and Carenero area. Luckily, the apartment had good sound isolation.

À couper le souffle
Pros:

La terrasse sur pilotis du bungalow (j'ai vu une raie et des étoiles de mer)

Cons:

Peu d'options de petit-déjeuner pour ceux qui n'aiment pas trop les oeufs (mais ça reste très bien!)

Love here!
Pros:

Perfect stay on over water villa🥰 Beautiful view, quite, clean and has good breakfast by the sea again. It is so easy to go around with water taxi, Bocas town costs 1 € and it is very close.
Owners are friendly and nice. I’d like to stay here again in the future

Pros:

La casita en la que nos alojamos era perfecta, con todo lo necesario. El desayuno rico y a la carta. Los pancakes, la tortilla y los huevos revueltos muy buenos.

Cons:

Había bastante ruido de lanchas por la propia ubicación del alojamiento, pero se contrarresta con la comodidad de que por allí pasaban todas las rutas sin necesidad de estar en Isla colón.

Relax fenomenal
Pros:

La tranquilidad, la terraza del bungalow, estar tan cerca del mar (literalmente encina) y de la playa de arena fina... el ambiente muy bueno, con terrazas cerca como el Aqua y los restaurantes de la pequeña isla de Carenero (0 carreteras, 0 coches, todo tranquilidad). Personal muy amable (todos!). Playas muy chulas muy cerca. Experiencia muy agradable y relajsnte. Se agradece mucho el A/A en los bungalows.

Cons:

Tener que volver a la rutina despues de estar en un hotel así :-)
Conviene llevar antimosquitos, no dentro de los bungalows pero sí en alguna wue otra playa.
