I had an incredible stay at a charming place in Bocas. The owner, Caesar, went above and beyond to make sure I had a great time. He even arranged a local cooking class for me, which was amazing. The room was clean and had excellent air conditioning. The location was perfect, close to all the bars but on a quiet street. I slept really well. The kitchen and common areas were always spotless. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Bocas.

We stayed at Surfari and it exceeded our expectations. the rooms were small but had everything we needed, including great AC and WiFi with hot water in the private bathroom. the location was perfect - quiet, yet within walking distance of everything. the owner was incredibly sweet and accommodating, and the free coffee all day was a pleasant surprise. We loved the spacious kitchen and the rooftop terrace. Surfari offered excellent value for money and we highly recommend it. Cons: Not one thing! 😊.

The value for money was exceptional and the room was fantastic, with a powerful air conditioner and a comfortable bed. The location was perfect, close to all the vibrant bars but still situated on a quiet street for a peaceful night's sleep. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive to my needs, making me feel like a valued guest. A special shoutout to Thomas and Tomaso for their exceptional customer service. Can't wait to stay here again!
The breakfast menu could use some improvement.

The hotel is conveniently located near the town center, bars, and restaurants. the rooms are well-equipped and comfortable with hot water in the shower. the staff members are knowledgeable and helpful, and the wifi is reliable. There is a clean kitchen and multiple common areas including a nice rooftop terrace to relax and enjoy the view.
The hotel could improve on the quality of the mattresses which are too old and uncomfortable.

I recently had a wonderful stay in a hostel in a great location. It was just a short walk from everywhere in Bocas Town, making it easy to explore the area. The staff were incredibly helpful in organizing trips around Bocas and providing useful information about nearby pharmacies. The room I stayed in was clean and comfortable, with a nice bathroom and a strong fan to keep cool at night. I also enjoyed the delicious breakfast provided each morning. The hostel had a lovely pool and friendly staff who made my stay even more enjoyable.
I did find that the Wi-Fi was a bit slow at times.

We had a great experience staying at this super conveniently located place. the apartment room was perfect for us, with a kitchen and bathroom to ourselves. the staff members were also very helpful. the location was fantastic, just a short stroll to the main town but still quiet for a good night's sleep. the atmosphere in the building was really nice, with people who liked to share their travel experiences. Our private room with a spacious bathroom had great water pressure and hot water. Plus, the free morning coffee was a great touch!
Nothing negative to say. 😊.

The accommodation was nicely tucked away from the busy streets, but still close enough to shops and restaurants. The atmosphere was pleasant and the owner was very helpful with recommendations about the area. The kitchen and facilities were clean and well-equipped, making cooking a breeze.
There were a few bugs that made their way into the room at night, which caused some discomfort. the place could use a fresh coat of paint to update the decor, and the kitchen could have been a bit cleaner.
