Need a fan above deck for air movement. The loud music that went on till early hours of the morning, but I one that can sleep through it so it someone is a light sleeper. The shut off of water and electricity from 11:00 to 3:00 ish, every other day? Just ask, should put notices up for people that stay there.

It was very clean, great view, close to a lot with a water taxi or walk. Though bring or bug spring!! Staff was great.

Wifi was a bit sketchy and even dropped out for a couple of hours. The shower jet was only warm when it was really weak; making it stronger turned it cold. Lots of sandflies so always have to use spray against those.

Great location at the beach, big apartment with large sleeping rooms and comfy beds. Great living room and well equipped kitchen. Nice balcony with garden set to sit in with seaview.

our location was poor due to a noisy bar that played loud music till around four am. The neighbourhood and the market was very dirty garbage and dog poop. Since the water is in drinkable the business should provide drinking water.

Our room was spacious and clean

The outdoor space was lovely however there wasn’t any shade on the deck. It was so hot we were not able to use it but there was lots of shade in the island itself.

The property was very clean. Daily freshening up by the staff was appreciated.

This applies to most places in Bocas but especially to this place, and it's not something they tell you ahead of time on Booking: the water is only turned on for two 2 hour periods per day. Apparently the water is pumped from a fresh water lake on the main island or rain is caught and it hadn't rained for a while. The owner also said the pump from the main island was acting up? I can understand conserving water, but they should tell you ahead of time. Go to the washroom overnight? It's staying in the bowl until morning. Go snorkeling in the afternoon and want to wash the sand off? Not happening. Go dancing at night and want to shower before you go to bed? Nope. A similar thing with the AC. I understand and subscribe to conservation, but I'm on vacation. When I come home after a sweaty day, I want to walk into air conditioning. I'm paying for that. They would enter the unit and turn it off during the day. They would also re-arrange my clothes and personal items. I understand they are trying to be tidy, and nothing was ever missing, but don't touch my stuff. The internet was also very slow. It isn't unuseable, but it is slower on the island then it is in Bocas town. The owner talked about getting Musk's Starlink, who knows if he'll follow through. The owner seems like a decent guy and I could see him making improvements to the dock and other items each day I was there. It's a nice enough place, but you're paying roughly what you would pay at other places that don't have the water/AC/internet concerns.

This is on the closest island to Bocas town proper. The kondo is a 5 minute walk from the main party bar in Bocas - The Aqua Lounge. A water taxi back to the main island will cost you $2 each way. Initially I was concerned how hard it would be to get transport, but there are so many taxi boats zooming about that it was never an issue, you just stand on the end of the dock and flag down the next one going past and they are happy to make an extra $2 for going to the same final destination. The room was more like a small apartment, spacious and clean with a complete modern kitchen.

Everything in our room was great but the bed was hard. Maybe a few more hand towels as we only had one between us. I am sure the manager would have provided us as many as we needed if we had requested it. The number of bath towels was fine.

Breakfast was on location and it was plentiful for the price. Wi-Fi, small refrigerator, kitchenette and air conditioning was available and good. The manager, Maricela, and her son were excellent! Both were welcoming, friendly and helpful in every way! The local people were all very nice as well. The room was cleaned every day and the entire property was clean and presentable at all times. You could also easily walk to several restaurants with live music near by. It was easy and cheap to take water taxis from Kevin's Condos anywhere you want to go, including Bocas Town and other islands. All in all, it was very pleasant, quiet and relaxing stay. We will definitely go back.

TV channels did not work properly. Furniture is outdated. A bigger couch in the livingroom would be great.

Location is great, allthough not much to do on Carenero island. But super easy to catch a boat to Boca's. Good size appartment, functional kitchen.

Sand fleas and mosquitos... Ha! Welcome to the rain forest/beach. Love mother nature!

Three female Missionaries taking a break from Costa Rica. Great place to unwind. A little beach, a little ocean, great restaurant just next door...all very reasonable! Water taxis no problem!

Stayed in March 2023

we missed bigger/comfier sofas in the living room and on the balcony the sleeping room had no fly nets neither at the window nor at the balcony

we liked the condo a lot - sea-oriented balcony, kitchen well equipped, sleeping room facing the garden (meaning darkness which is very rare), nice people running the place and we were very happy to stay on Carenero

There is AC only in the bedrooms. I wish there would be another one in the living room. But still, the cool from the bedrooms gets to the other parts of the apartment.

The apartment was very big. We had plenty of room for a party of 5. It was very clean and every day cleaned again. It's 2 minutes from the main island but still far enough so you can enjoy the quiet, the beauty and relax. Adriano was always there to help and recommend us on things to do. Thank you very much for the wonderful stay!

You can still hear the music from Bocas town! Not that many food options, but so easy to get a water taxi across to town if needed.

Loved waking up to this view! Friendly welcome by reception. Huge comfortable apartment with everything we needed for a family of five with young children (space and laundry service!). We walked to lunch and dinner (Bibi’s, Leaf Eaters, Coquitos Beach) and the supermarket for breakfast items to make our own. Keep walking past Bibi’s for the best swimming beach, shaded by palms and idyllic.

The water in the shower is either cold, which is ok, or scalding hot.

The condo is right on a small beach. It has a beautiful views. Exceptionally clean. Friendly staff.

Convinient location.

Stayed in June 2023

bad smell due to fungus as the bathroom ventilation doesn’t work. Lots of spider webs in the room and the shower barely works (no pressure and cold). Also, reception lady was very unclear and told us that they were overbooked. Eventually this wasn’t the case luckily.

great location and spacious rooms

Stayed in March 2023

there wasn’t a comfortable place to sit and no place to work on my laptop

it definitely gave me the island vibe. the condo was clean and the staff was great
