![A beautiful island turned into a National park in 1997. Coiba's underwater topography is linked by the underwater Coco Ridge mountain chain to the Galápagos Islands. Scientists from the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute have proclaimed it an unparalleled destination for discovering new species. Rachel Collin, a Smithsonian project coordinator said: "It's hard to imagine, while snorkeling around a tropical island that's so close to the United States, that half the animals you see are unknown to science.”[1]](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6035245/9d271637-7e05-4d40-9a5d-4e2c908e1859.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1200&h=500&q=medium)

Bambuda Santa Catalina
10/10 Excellent
"Great stay, awesome staff, good food and drink options, clean, beautiful views, convenient location.
The only thing I would note is that the property isn't directly on a sandy beach like I thought it would be from the photos... it's a 3 minute walk :)"

Hotel y Restaurante Mama Ines
10/10 Excellent
"I was traveling with my teen daughter and we stayed here for two nights. The property is located a few stair steps down to the beach. Very quiet. Very homy relaxing atmosphere. Staff is very friendly. They have a restoran on the site and serve delicious freshly made food for a reasonable price. We rent two queen bed room with a big furnished terrace overlooking ocean and the pool. Room was clean, spacious with good wifi reception and big tv. Chanals and Netflix available. It is a family buisness definitely dedicated to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. The property is just 15 min. of safe walk at any time to more restorants and buisness. It is hard to find such a property for that price in this area. We would definitely come back here."
