“Cute authentic guests house”
Marta is very nice and welcoming, she wants to make you feel good. Cute house with an amazing view on the ocean and many hammocks to chill in. There's everything to cook. It's also a quiet place if you're not looking for party in Bocas.

Amazing location. The house sits on the sea. Very close to the town. It's more of a homestay than a hostel. You stay with the family.

“Martha's paradise”
This is a little paradise! You'll sleep with the rhythm of the waves on an incredibly comfortable mattress. Martha's caring and open-hearted demeanor as well as the small size of the place make you feel at home. It's a clean, comfortable and calm place to stay and perfect to forget about the hectic world. Still it's close enough to everything in town.

“Lovely”
Martha is an excellent host. The hostel is literally located on the sea and is very easy to locate in Bocas. The amenities are clean and hostel is close to the shops and restaurants. Bonus, Martha can organize for the boat tours to pick you from the hostel. The kitchen has all you need to prepare your own meals and all the other guests were lovely to interact with.

Small hostal, Perfect location. Close enough from the Center ,walking distance, but in quiet area and of course on the sea. The water is beautiful. Nice view. Nice snorkeling with starfish right under the hostel. So relaxing Marta is a great strong woman, full of character

“Fantastic”
Martha was my mama in Bocas. She’s incredibly helpful and lovely. I extended my stay with her twice. Hostal on the sea is a great place- on the water, super close to town, clean and really close to shops/bakery/bars. One of my fave hostels. Gracias por todo Martha. Hasta luego xx

The vibe in the hostel was really cool, it is a small place on top of the water. Nice chilling in the hammocks. The owner Marta, who also lives in this place, was funny and made the stay special.
