Location (sloths/dolphins everywhere), lovely community feel with meals together, rustic element to it, amazing food, reasonably priced beers!

Amazing location next to the reef and jungle. Can see much wildlife here. Also this rural place somehow has the best food we have seen in Panama.

We absolutely loved the stay at Cocovivo. We stayed in the Treehouse which was just incredible. The lights coming throug the mosquito nets in the morning and the sound of the sourrounding jungle made the sunrises truly special. Also the nature around is just beautiful. We saw plenty of sloths, monkeys and a wide variety of maritime wildlife within the beautiful reef. The staff is also inredibly friendly and makes you feel welcome and integrated without putting any pressure on you that you should book any tours through them. Special thanks to Nikita and Mercedes. The food by Andrea was amazing. If we would visit Panama again we will come back to Cocovivo for sure.

Location great, lovely space to relax and snorkel.

“Rustic spot with incredible food”

The staff are so kind and considerate. Although the place is rustic, everything is well-planned and clean. The reef is amazing with huge fishes and a tiny wreck. Lastly, the food was outstanding.

“Amazing, beautiful, serene place”

The location was amazing with lots of sloths, kinkajous, dolphins and howler monkeys. The food was amazing and delicious and the staff Melissa, Luciano and Leo were lovely and went out of their way to make us feel at home and to have the best holiday. The reef was pretty and there was lots of opportunity to swim, kayak and visit local attractions and Capitán and Mazoo the dogs were lovely too. We were able to mix with another family that were there and so it was really sociable. We will definitely be returning.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Very good nature retreat!

Ulrich & Elisabeth have built something wonderful & truly unique with CocoVivo. The reef is spectacular & right there!! We had monkeys playing in the trees above the house, sparkling bioluminessence each night, octopus sightings on a night snorkel with ViVi, and the best, best food from chef Andrea. Thank you, everybody at CocoVivo, for making our holiday so special ❤️

“A rustic piece of paradise in Bocas del Toro!”

We only stayed for 2 nights (and would’ve stayed for more), and had an incredible time here. It’s not a 5* luxury hotel by any means, but the nicest place we’ve stayed probably, it’s a great place to unwind and relax- the coral reef and surrounding wildlife could occupy you all day if you wanted. Thankyou to the team for looking after us so well, the 3 course meals for dinner are fantastic, and it’s great to eat at the same time as other guests and meet people from all over! This is top of the list for places I want to come back to!

“Amazing eco-resort for water and nature lovers”

Fantastic eco resort with plenty of activities to do for water lovers, or just enjoy the view and relax. Hosts are very welcoming and the food is delicious. Highly recommend if you are looking for an adventure hors des sentiers battus.

Great location, people, food and mood !

The location is superb, remote and separated. The Coral Reef much better than expected. In fact the best we saw in all Bocas del Toro. Well worth to go only for it. Great food and help on everything. The whole team helped make our stay a great one Special comments for the bioluminiscence swimming at night. This is real must.... Fantastic

“Tasteful, homely get away in the jungle. Loved every minute”

Absolutely loved our stay, Melissa and Luciano made us feel right at home. No request was too much. Really good food, best tuna we've ever had. Beautiful location, relaxed and laid back. No frills kind of place but everything done very tastefully. Stunning scenery everywhere you looked, we didn't want to leave!

Bioluminescence plankton in the water every night right off the pier. Great food . Sloths. Just a lovely relaxing place

“Incredible! Best place to park up for a week, never short of things to do. But also the perfect place to stop and do not”

Being away from the grotty and busy Bocas town was incredible. Staying at cocovivo was like staying in your own oasis with everything you needed. Perfect for relaxing and exploring in rain or sun! It was amazing. Having the reef right below you meant snorkelling was available at any time which was endless fun!! Something different to see each day. The staff were amazing, massive thanks to Melissa for her hospitality and great chats, Luciano for the amazing meals, and Luis for helping us find the monkeys!
