David was the single most fantastic host. Not only was he making sure that our room was ready earlier than the usual check-in time, he also happily shared information on how best to get around, where to eat and what to do (according to what we were looking for).

The peacefulness and beauty of the location cannot be adequately described. You have to experience it. The owners/hosts (Andres, Lizette, Rafael) are delightful, interesting, compassionate, gifted people. It is amazing what they have done even with the challenges of a remote tropical environment. The food was spectacular using local ingredients and flavors of the area as well as their family traditions and recipes.

The owner is beyond helpful and incredibly kind and cheerful. There are so many little extras that make this place a great place to stay - convenient for town but not in noisy downtown; great little basic kitchen and fridge for prepping your own food; calm and charming outdoor area; clean and large bedrooms with good size bathrooms and great a/c.

FAQ about homestays in Bocas del Toro
On average, a homestay in Bocas del Toro costs £46 per night (based on Booking.com prices).
It’s really a lovely hostel right at (above) the water. My room was really great and felt way bigger than it looks on the photos. The owner and the staff were super friendly. I can recommend the happy hour 🤣
Loved staying at Skullys. Great spot. Very well thought out and welcoming. The dorm rooms are amazing, built like the inside of a ship! Very well equipped kitchens and good food storage. Staff are very professional and helpful. Activities going on which the locals come to so great place to meet people. Restaurants on site, can be a bit hit and miss. It’s 3kms from town but only a short taxi ride which they can organise for you.
My stay was amazing - great hosts, delicious food, super peaceful on the island. You can go paddle boarding, kayaking, swimming, snorkelling - all from the house.
Each house has a small gardenarea around it which is covered so it feels very private.
There is also a pool !
You can't leave the place to go to any shops because the only way out is by boat, which feels very luxurious !
fabulous stay, beautiful property immersed in nature . fantastic walking trails, wildlife all around and a beautiful property with lovely hosts. couldn't be happier with my stay.
Positive vibes from locals in general - mostly hardworking and pleasant people. Unfortunately and in contrast to the general vibe of the islands, our host was extremely rude. We would suggest that you go give your positive energy, enthusiasm to travel and money to other professionals in the region who better deserve that.
Excelent choice in Bocas Town. Very good location. Close (by walk) to main boat docks and restaurant and bars. In pool area is very good chilli vibe. Staff is really nice and helpful, especially on recepcion. They organized everything for us, even the tours and boat took us on the hotel pier (so you dont need to negotiate with locals on street).
Sally&Mike are great hosts, we felt like at home and the room has a nice cottage vibe, breakfast was delicious. All our never ending questions were answered , which we are grateful for 🙏 Worth to mention: filtered water available, also a little kitchen, complimentary bikes and kayaks.
