Independent, Tierra Oscura hotels

"The staff was amazing and very accommodating from check in to room service and use of amenities. My bungalow was very clean and beautiful. Very comfortable. "

"Pool is awesome "

"Great hotel in the middle of town. Close to all restaurants and boat docks. The staff is very friendly and kind. The hotel can be a little noisy at night with all the people walking around the streets. "

"​Our stay at Bocas Paradise Hotel was excellent, primarily due to its unbeatable location. ​The Highlights: ​Prime Location: Being right on the main street of Isla Colon made it incredibly easy to explore the town, find dining options, and soak in the local atmosphere. ​Tour Convenience: If you're planning on doing any excursions, this is the place to be. The boat tours are located right next door, which made our morning departures seamless. ​Atmosphere & Noise: While the hotel is close to the nearby clubs, we found the noise levels to be perfectly manageable. I had packed earplugs just in case after reading previous reviews, but we actually never needed to use them. ​Overall, a great home base for anyone looking to be in the heart of the action in Bocas del Toro!"

"We had a great experience at Lula’s. It is a very friendly B&B. The location is great, the breakfast is served in the kitchen giving a familiar vibe and the hosts are really friendly and caring."

"All great, handy location but none of the patio doors lock so had to lug all valuables and equipment around as room was not secure. Friendly staff at front counter."

"Ok. Here is a review to help people as I have seen some bad reviews. This property is not a $1500/night maldives room. It needs some TLC - some deck boards and railings are at end of life, as are some chairs. We stayed in the master suite and really liked the place. Water is crystal clear, master suite has the best fish viewing, owners are really friendly and eager to please, food and drinks are decent - fresh OJ for the tequila sunrise! The charging station at the reception is not a big deal. I don’t need tvs. Fans kept us cool and it rained almost every night. There were a couple minor damp spots after rain but did not need the provided container. For the price this place is 100% worth it. I would go back in heart beat. If you need a blow dryer and straight iron and other high powered appliances to feel like you at home and need to watch your reality TV on a big screen, you might want to skip this. If you want a great relaxing location and unique experience - do it! "

"Got locked out with no one available to let me in. Room smelled funky No coffee available in the morning Paid cash and requested a reciept. Was told I would get one and never did"

"We felt in love with this place! Yoga , SPA , perfect dining. Everything exceptional in La Coralina! Will come back for sure! "
