Tucked away on one of the more quiet islands of the Bocas del Toro province in Panama, there is an ecolodge called 'Cocovivo'. Through a long chain of friends of friends, I discovered this little paradise where peacefulness is key. Originally set up as a co-working space, the owners of Cocovivo made this place a home away from home. Set up with the help of an indigenous Ngobe-Guble family, everything is ecological: yes, that means a compost toilet. If that does not convince you yet, then maybe the possibility to kayak surrounded by dolphins will. Or you can practice yoga on your stand-up paddleboard. Or jump from the diving board right in the Caribbean sea and explore the reef. Or go on a jungle walk and count all the sloths you can see. Or eat delicious food made with very very local ingredients. Or see the stars in the sky reflected in the water bioluminescent plankton. Who needs Bocas' party scene when you have the 'disco' lights above and underneath you right? A place where I could relax fully and that I wholeheartedly recommend! #troveon #thisbatteredsuitcase #cocovivo #caribbeanvibes

"Akwaba Lodge was wonderful in all aspects. An absolutely beautiful property, and Our room was very clean and comfortable and had everything we n"

"A fun and peaceful place to stay, away from the large crowds. It’s about a 10–15 minute walk to the main town or borrow bikes to ride from the owners. The sunsets are absolutely breathtaking, and you can easily arrange for taxi boats to pick you up right from here to head out on your next adventure."

"It was a excellent stay ! The food was tasty and very good! Brian and Amy Thanks for everything to make a very good holiday."

"INCREDIBLE AUTHENTIC JUNGLE EXPERIENCE BUT WITH ALL THE COMFORT!! I stayed for 2 nights at David’s place on my solo trip to bocas del toro and I can’t recommend it enough! The place was gorgeous on inside and the outside was just amazing, surrounded by jungle but 2 mins from the water too! Everything was clean, and the bed was SUPER comfortable!! David was extremely friendly and helpful with immediate responses when I had questions throughout my whole stay! I rented a ATV and David let me park...

"The hosts are very friendly and helpful. I had a minor issue in my room and Olivia responded right away and dealt with the issue even though it was later in the evening. Lots of wildlife around! The beach is great for surfing or for strolling around. It is further away from Bocas town and requires a taxi ride charging $20 one way. "

"We had an amazing stay at la playa casita. Highly recommend it!!!"

"We had a great time with our group of 16 on and around the property. The staff is outstanding and set up all transportation and activities and were happy to share information about the local area. This was a really relaxing vacation. We could not have asked for more!"

"Encontré esta casa sobre el agua y aunque era muy nuevo el anuncio, decidí hospedarme aquí. La casa es súper grande y cuenta por el momento con 3 habitaciones (están terminando la 4) Mi habitación estuvo perfecta. Tenía todo lo que necesitaba para mi corta estadía. Amé que tuviera aire acondicionado y acceso a Netflix. El internet es bastante rápido. Otra de mis cosas favoritas fue tener acceso directo directo al mar. Ed me ayudó a coordinar unos tours y la lancha me recogió desde el deck (me...

"Lovely location; great vibe; great food. "

"We had a great time staying at La Caribeña. The host was great. The breakfast included was a great added bonus. The room was comfortable with AC, water pressure and temp was great. The shared living space was awesome! The swings over the water were awesome to relax with a beer end of the day. We will definitely stay here again if it is available. Thanks Eduardo. Hope to meet ya next time. Cheers! "

5/5 Excellent

"Me and my partner stayed for 3 nights. The hotel is right on the water. It is on a smaller, more secluded island, which is only a 2 minute boat taxi from the main island. The hosts were attentive, they helped us book day tours around the different islands. The food served at the restaurant was delicious and well worth eating there. There is a very chilled atmosphere in the hotel which is ideal for the island feeling. We spent a lot of time in the pool, it was clean and fresh, overlooking the ocean and some amazing sunsets. Overall, we had a wonderful time with the wonderful hosts. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a few days in paradise. "
