Search Resorts in Barro Colorado Island

"This hotel is in an amazing location, close to the national parks and outside of the city. They offer wonderful opportunities to tour the grounds with local guides who are very knowledgable about the flora and fauna. We were able to see and learn about many plants and trees, as well as animals large and small, and many species of birds. This was a very nice complement to our self-guided hike in Soberanía National Park (with transportation to the Plantation trail provided by the Hotel). The hotel also has an on-site rehabilitation center for animals including sloths, but it was not occupied during our stay. We were able to see various species of butterflies and frogs. They have two nice pools and many chairs, but few loungers. as well as a workout gym (unfortunately without a working A/C when we were there). The bar was good, but no frills. The rooms were very outdated with very firm pillows that made it hard to sleep comfortably. The service was marginal (had to ask in person for towels and hangers three times over a 7-hour time span before request was partially fulfilled, no room cleaning until requested, bathroom smelled of sewage). Staff were mostly friendly. Breakfast buffet was great, but dinner menu was a little limited for vegetarians, particularly if staying for more than a couple nights. Again, the main draw is the location, "

"Beautiful buffet and the best staff!"

"Breakfast was great. "

"The room AC was not working. The iron was not working. Had to transfer to another room and breakfast was not served was not included. I don’t see how if you spend the night there."

"We absolutely loved this place, it’s such a lovely setting and the pool is superb. Crystal and the staff were lovely and so sweet with our young son. The food and trips are fantastic. A brilliant place to stay. "

"Such an amazing stay, from the house, to the surroundings and the owner. We used all the recommendations (Kamir is a great cook and wonderful person), went on a boat tour and enjoyed the Embera trip. It was our first time in the jungle and Gamboa was a great experience. Safe and friendly all around!"

"Credit Card was skimmed at the Marina Hotel/restaurant. Only used this particular card in one place during my days in Panama...at check-in, and to pay for a pizza at the restaurant. Had unauthorized charges less than 3 hours later."

"They never gave us a room. I need my refund "

"Booked and when I arrived they told me place is under construction. I have two kids with me so trying to find something else last minute for a night is not ideal. TAKE IT OFF IF IT IS NOT READY TO BE STAYED IN !!!!!!"
