"The house is gorgeous, the hosts were wonderful, the location was stunning...THE HOSTS:Sunanda and Vincent are the best hosts. Sunanda was always quick to respond to questions, met us at the airport & took us to the dock. Left our bags there while we shopped at 2 close by markets. Went back on day 5 of 10. Vincent was always available during our stay.THE HOUSE:Pictures don't do it justice. The house is stunning. Downstairs is a nice kitchen w/ a bar & 4 stools, dining table fits 10 and a nice living room area. The 3 bedrooms and 2 baths are upstairs. The master suite has a veranda overlooking the sea. The other 2 bedrooms overlook the jungle and served as a great bird blind. Beautiful hardwood throughout. Very open.THE PROPERTY / WILDLIFE:Large back yard surrounded by jungle. Visited by monkeys every couple of days. Lots of birds and fascinating insects. Geckos were regulars in and the around the house. The front is as beautiful of a view of the Caribbean as you can imagine. Truly mesmerizing and ever changing with lighting, time of day and weather. Most days were clear enough to see the mountains of the Panamanian mainland.THE ENVIRONMENT / AREA:We saw sloths, baby monkeys, lizards, frogs and butterfly's on jungle / beach walks. Being associated with Al Natural Resort allows guest to have dinner and go on a variety of excursions. Vincent is an excellent chef and Michel texted me daily about upcoming activities. Snorkeling at Zapatillas was awesome."

"We had a great time staying here with our two kids ages 4 and 6. The house is right on a beautiful beach with calm, shallow waters for swimming. We also took out the kayaks several times to paddle around and went on boat excursions to the Zapatillas Islands and a chocolate farm, as well as a tour into the village and surrounding jungle with local guide Calypso, which was a highlight!The house itself is spacious and well-appointed with incredible views from the deck.This is a more remote area of Bocas and Isla Bastimiento, so be sure that's what you're looking for when considering it, but it's great for those want a quiet, relatively private place in a beautiful area. There is a resort that is a short walk down the beach where we were able to get dinner, and others further down."

"Property is beautiful and perfect for a very quiet, low-key, rustic beach experience. It was a bit stormy while we were there, so water was very murky and not good for snorkeling or kayaking. Definitely bring your own food and supplies, as there are no stores there, and eating out at the two neighbouring resorts can become very pricey, and they can be hard to book. Sterling was very helpful and quick to respond to all of our questions and requests, although we never saw him in person. Be sure to reach out and ask for what you need! Hilario, Sterling's employee was the one to help us, but the language barrier made it difficult to plan things at times. He did take us to Zapatillas and Coral Caye for snorkeling, which was a lot of fun. "

"This was a beautiful property! Such a special experience staying in an over the water bungalow! Food and drink they offered was delicious! There is a refrigerator in the room, I wish we would have bought some snacks and beverages before leaving Bocas Town to keep in our room. Staff was super friendly and helpful. "

"Un paraiso bien integrado a su entorno natural. Ideal para disfrutar días o semanas de descanso frente a la belleza del mar. La Residencia tiene todas las comodidades, las opciones de excursión están bien organizadas. Michel y su equipo crean un ambiente amable y fraternal. Todo muy bien acompañado por las comidas del chef Vincent. "
