Family hotels and homes in Almirante

We booked last minute after we missed the last boat to Bocas Town. The room was comfortable and clean. Good AC.

Great accommodation in a very good area. Carlos is very friendly and helpful. We had a good breakfast as well.

Everything was wonderful I highly recommend to stay at Casa Mono

Judith and Fabrice were lovely!! They were great with any needs we had, they cooked us a delicious breakfast each morning and had a delicious dinner too! We are vegetarian too and we’re really happy! They were great with my 3 year old son too! We went kayaking and fabrice helped us with all the gear and equipment! Would definitely come back!

I do like boat Hauses... you sleep here with the waves... the house itself is decorated by Claudine an artist from Montreal... ver, warm welcomed and had a fantastic stay

My family and I stayed in six different hotels across Panama over a two week period and the consensus at the end was that Casa Acuario was the favourite. And by quite a distance. First of all, it’s just a cool place to stay. On stilts, over clear warm water, perfect for the kids (and adults) to snorkel, we got to see shawls of small fish along with a few big ones and the odd ray within seconds of our arrival. We were a two minute boat-taxi away from Bocas town and its modest number of good bars and restaurants, but staying at Casa Acuario meant we got the peace and quiet which the mainland didn’t look like it easily provided. The room we were in (upstairs) was easily big enough for two adults and the kids (aged 13 and 10), nicely decorated and with really comfortable beds and a hammock from which you could overlook the sea. As dog lovers, my children were over the moon that there were three (clean, friendly and well behaved) dogs on site. There were a couple of good places to eat and drink on the small island which we could get to on foot from Casa Acuario, and a nice beach about 15mins walk from the hotel. The fridge full of beer on the decking was also a nice touch! But alongside all of these positives, the main thing that gave Casa Acuario the ‘X Factor’ were the owners, Mandy and JP. We were made to feel welcome from minute one, they could not have been more helpful and they made a real impression on the whole family in our three days with them. And just to provide a little context, after Casa Acuario were went to the nearby, and much more expensive, Eclypse de Mar Acqua Lodge for two nights which, before arriving, I thought was going to be the highlight of the Bocas itinerary. Take nothing away from The Eclypse which was seriously nice, but I wish I’d stayed at Casa Acuario for the full duration. Definitely in the top 5 favourite hotels I’ve stayed in across six continents.

If you’re looking for a quiet and relaxed jungle experience, that’s your place: stunning views, wildlife, tranquility, comfortable bungalows, free kayaks, the best homemade food we had in all Bocas. Clarisse will take care of everything to make your stay worry-free

The hotel was amazingly located. It just takes 2 mins from Bocas Town to get there. The facilities were perfectly clean. But undoubtedly the best part of the hotel is the staff; Edgar, Samir, Angel and all the other are amazing! Definitely i’m going to miss them all!

Near to the beach, very nice stuff, good bar and restaurants, it was totally chill. Exactly what I needed.
