Its a bit far from town, but taxis are 2-4$

What a hostel! Probably the best I’ve stayed in. Has everything you wish for and more! Staff is just lovely !!

Amazing views from the balcony. The indoor Jacuzzi and pool was amazing, great place for everyone to gather and meet. The staff was always kind and friendly. Breakfast was reasonably priced and the omelet was great!

The upper bunks don’t have edges so I nearly fell down while sleeping.

Big cold water pool next to a jacuzzi. Perfect place to chill after a day of hiking! The breakfast was great and staff super friendly.

No towels provided.

Bambuda Castle is very welcoming and has a chilled vibe. There are no locks on dorm doors as there is a degree of trust built up between fellow travellers. Awesome views when relaxing with a coffee or food!

it’s a bit far from the city, so be sure to buy some food before before, if not there is also a nice restaurant in the hostel

loved my stay at the castle, it was so luxurious for a hostel! - there’s a pool and a jacuzzi - very nice view to the mountains - nice and helpful workers - free welcome drink - there is also a kitchen, where you can cook by yourself - big and comfy area - comfy beds

This is such a cool place. A tv-room in one of the towers, a great kitchen, swimming pool and what a view. I got one of the small buses to the nearest busstopp and walked for five minutes from there. I recommend spending a few nights here.

I could keep it short and simple - everything! One of the best of not the best Hostel I have ever stayed in. The castle is just stunning, the rooms and also the bathrooms were big and super clean. Staff was friendly, funny, helpful, they remember the guests and their names and after short time even remembered my special orders at the restaurant. I also loved the vibe there, it was super easy to find people for hiking and actually the hostels location is great for some hikes. The terrace, the garden, the Jacuzzi, the cute movie room, everything was perfect to hang out after hiking or even for a whole lazy day. They also have a great kitchen to cook or prepare snacks for hiking. I really loved my stay here and if I come back to Boquete, I will come back to this place.

it would be nice if the hobbit huts had som chairs. the only furniture is the bed. there is not much space so perhaps some comfortable folding chairs.

beautiful property up the mountain. great views, quiet.

I had two bookings so two reviews. Staff is fabulous and knowledgeable. Location is gorgeous. Food is good. I highly recommend a stay here!

The dehumidifier in the room became full in the night and flashed bright light that woke me up. The bed wasn't great in the "Hobbit Hut" we stayed in, but it was an incredibly unique experience.

The food and beverages were excellent and reasonably priced. The property was well-maintained and beautiful! The views were extraordinary.

I don't mind but as other reviewers noted you do have to take a taxi into Boquete center that runs about $3-$5. Could be a concern for those with a super tight budget. Wifi was not as good in the bungalow but I wasn't working remotely.

Everything! The location is gorgeous. The staff are super helpful, they made recommendations for me and organized transport. The facilities are great. I stayed one night in the dorm and one night in the garden bungalow. The dorm was very comfortable and clean as were the shared bathrooms. The garden bungalow was adorable, comfortable, and clean. The showers were hot. The food was great. I did not use the pool or hot tub but they are available and appear exactly as advertised. There is a nice shared kitchen. I have no complaints. I wish I could stay longer!

No bikes for transportation , and if you want to go more often to the town you have to take a taxi or walk half distance. The rooms beds don't have anything for more privacy like a Cortins

The yacuzzi and the restaurant

location from town to get returning cab after dark

uniqueness, grounds.

Stayed in January 2023

The location was 40 minutes walking from boquete (or a 4 dollar taxi ride). You could also take the bus (0,75 $) but it's not downtown

Amazing food, many great tours are offered. You can pay by card. Clean and great facilities, enough plugs. Fully recommend :)
