“Abusive. Totally overpriced. Not for families.”
The location is an island with nice natural surroundings.

“Too expensive for what you get - definitely not a bargain with all of the extra hidden costs”
The general friendliness of the staff. Particularly Edgar was very accommodating and gave us advice on what to see and how to do. Other than that, our room was spacious and clean. The place has great potential

“Wonderful stay”
Beautiful site surrounded by rainforest. Very helpful and friendly staff; the property had changed ownership before our arrival, which we were informed of with all the instructions (so we were aware of the temporary shortage of restaurants and the need to pay cash). All staff are constantly looking after and improving the facilities. The path from the boat landing is very well marked, almost entirely paved or tarmac. It takes a maximum of 15 minutes. Beautiful, tasteful common areas and a pleasant swimming pool. Singing birds, hummingbirds, red frogs, morning visits from monkeys. Simply a little piece of paradise. A path through the forest leads directly to Red Frog Beach in a few minutes. A wonderful stay

The hostel is nice and surrounded by beautiful nature. The pool was clean and there was a pingpong table and some games. The room was pretty and clean. The hostel is really remote and a great place to relax, but if you want to meet a lot of people and go out, the Sociatel in Bocas Town would be a better choice.

“Jungle experience, but do not expect any luxury.”
Location and proximity to beautiful Red Frog beach is amazing. Also the jungle vibes are cool if you want to experience something different compared to staying at Isla Colon.

“Amazing experience!”
Red Frogs everywhere. You're in the jungle. 7-10 minutes to an amazing beach thru the forest. One of the best hostel beds in terms of curtains for privacy. The hostel has a swimming pool though it was not very inviting both due to the weather and it was filled with leaves. Great staff! Even the walk from the dock to the hostel is an adventure with monkeys on the trees

Communication because of constrains was not good (spontaneous breakfast cancellation by the property and yoga classes). The property in general seemed to be neglected for a long time (kitchen is available but not clean, utilities damaged, walking bridge is broken, etc.)

“Lovely stay in the jungle but unfriendly staff make the experience worse”
The location in the jungle was very nice. Also the offer of free activities. There was enough space in the dorms and the beds were really comfortable and private due to curtains. Everything was clean.

“Very poor management ruins the place”
In the middle of island - you have to walk 10 min to get to the beach. There is a WhatsApp group where they share available activities. Local staff is amazing!! Felipe , Joel and Jose Will do everything to make your stay better.
