Fancy some scambled ants?
Don't get lured by the nice pictures. They were purposely boosted up. The hotel is located on a small island surrounded by the locals' cabins and a school. From and to Bocas town the only way is by water taxi $1 per capita ($2 at night). The land entrance is an alleyway leading to the local community. That's something you don't really want to see when on holiday. But if you'd like to walk on the island you need to make your way through the narrow path surrounded by trash, animal droppings and nasty smells. If you decide to stay in the room you need to deal with the noise of schoolkids all day long or if it rains you can listen to the hurtling waterfall hitting the corrugated iron roof. The breakfast is made by locals meeting their standards. Fancy some scrambled ants? Complaining is futile because we were told by the not local manager it can happen in the tropics. No remorse, no refund, no complimentary something. And even if you wanted to buy a drink, well, you can't. So if you don't wanna drink tap water you need to find the supermercado which is not far away, but in the pouring rain you need to wade the filthy ponds between the locals' cabins. For this price I'm pretty sure you can stay in much better places.
