“My stay at Castillo was wonderful, the staff were very kind and helped me with any questions that I had and gave recomme”
The dorm beds were nice with a private fan above your bed and a locker in the room. Pool area and bar were amazing, they also had a restaurant at the bar! Easy to get in to town by bus or taxi that came by every few minutes. The staff were wonderful and very helpful and caring and wanted you to have a good stay. They could answer any questions that I had. Breakfast was great, usually an omelette or scrambled eggs with toasts and fresh fruit. Kitchen was clean and well equipped for cooking your own food.

“Great place”
Brand New hostel, all is very clean and the beds are so comfortable... It is out of the busy town, but you have a lovely Pool where you can hang out and there is a huge kitchen also where you can cook. But dont forget to do the grocery before in town... However the best are the lovely hosts Andrea with her husband and brother Aldo, they really make you feel welcome and at home :)

“Highly recommended! I had a great time.”
Nearly everything: The rooms are nice, comfy and tidy. The pool with the bar is awesome - you can so some watersport and directly swim to your well-deserved cerveza :) The kitchen is for a hostel really spacious and clean. But most importantly: The owners and the staff are so welcoming and helpful. They even picked me up from the harbour. And there are frequent buses to get in the city.

The owners and the staff are really nice and helpful people and made me feel like home. Mario took me with him to see his boat and Alto gave me drives down to the center, when I needed to go there. They even reopened their kitchen, to make me a hot dog one evening when I was a bit starving.

A very special place. Very nice room, very clean. A big kitchen with fridge, great pool and pool bar. And of course the slide in the pool is amazing. Staff is awasome. I liked the fact it is not in town, but they will provide a transport to and from the town. A great service!

“the pool is the highlight!!!”
I can highly recommend this place for anyone coming to Bocas Del Toro! The hosts are fantastic and so so helpful. The castle is really cool, they have lovely double rooms with private en-suites or you can stay in the dorms. There is a big kitchen which is very clean and has everything you need to cook. The pool is the star of the show, it is fantastic to spend a day by it and there is a bar that you can swim up to- we even got a welcome drink! The slide is so much fun, even for adults, it is fast and high up! It is easy to get a taxi into town and the hosts will give you lifts too. Andrea is buying a mini bus to transport guests very shortly so that will make it even easier!

“Awesome stay in a Castle made of plastic bottles”
Andrea and Stefan were super friendly and you could tell they care a lot about their guests! The room was very comfortable and I liked the style of a castle a lot 😊 Also it's very special to be able to stay in a Guinness world record castle 😜 Everything was very clean and all the facilities, the pool, everything is really nice. Totally recommend 👍🏼

The hosts are absolutely fantastic 😍 they immediately make you feel at home! They will give you a helping hand with everything! The place is in a quiet area 4km from town which makes it so nice to relax! The owners were offering me a ride to town every time they were going there and any time I needed it! The slide is fun (and scary🤣). The kitchen is huge. The entire place is spacious! Beds are super comfy!

“the best hostel beds & kitchen i’ve ever seen!”
the owners were so nice and accommodating! they will take care of you and offer rides into town free, but it’s kind to offer payment. the beds are very comfy, and each one has a fan, outlets, and a lamp attached to the wall. there are even curtains for privacy on the bunk beds! additionally, the slide is very fast and very fun and the pool is incredible.

Superb Hostel! Dorms are spacious enough, beds are comfy, with your own reading light and fan. Large kitchen, enough bathrooms and showers and all very clean. The swimming-pool (there is a toboggan too!!) and the bar are an extra. The staff and the owners did verything to make me feel at home. It was a great choice!

“Very good. Staff are friendly and great people.”
One of the managers, Aldo, was an amazing friend and extremely helpful. Our group was had made an Airbnb reservation in Bocas del Toro for 4 nights beginning Feb. 13th, and upon checkin to the Airbnb, the photos and booking description were not accurate, deceptive and outright fraud. We made due with the circumstances for one night, and the next morning at 730am, after not sleeping, we called Aldo, and asked him if he could pick us up and bring us to Castillo Inspiration. He came immediately and we packed our bags and went to the hostel. We are super appreciative of Aldo, for helping us get out of a bad situation in our Airbnb, and facilitating bringing us back to the hostel. We stayed for 4 nights at Castillo Inspiration, as we were able to get good rest, which we needed as we were taking PADI scuba diving courses that week.
