"Eleven out of ten. It's not often you get the perfect property in a unique location that feels like paradise. The welcome and attention we received from Herbie & Erika was first class. They genuinely are amazing hosts. The property is very clean and the attention to detail is first class. We loved the pool and relaxed atmosphere. The views from the infinity pool are amazing. In addition you are surrounded by wonderful wildlife. Even nature likes to visit the Eco Lodge or adjacent tree's , if you are talking Howler Monkeys. We will be back as it already feels like a home from home in Panama. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 11/10 "

"The staff was amazing! Always helpful and so nice. They made our stay truly wonderful. The location was amazing as well - we loved our jungle room view, access to the beach and swimming. "

"Attentive and friendly staff, beautiful location and beach across the street"

"Excellent room, beautiful grounds, attentive staff and the restaurant was very good. Well priced for the quality of the resort."

"Food was really good, bed very confortable and nice quiet place"

"Fantastic experience. The house was even better than the photos. The check-in was so fantastic, facilitated by a local couple who met us at the house and ensured all was well. Well maintained, clean, beautiful pool, amazing kitchen stocked with cooking equipment for a large family and everything needed for a stay 'like home'. Bbq, tiki hut outside for amazing evenings watching the birds, listening to the ocean and the monkeys. Access to the beach as advertised, and the local beach (you can walk there along the coast at medium or low tide) was spectacular, and we were usually the only ones there. Hosts were communicative and friendly, and we were able to connect with local guides and neighbours. Amazing. Start to finish. "

"It was a beautiful home in the middle of nowhere. It is an 1 hour flight from Panama City and about an hour drive from Airport David. Once you are there it is so peaceful and self contained. Right on the beach of the Pacific Ocean and a cute little beach club down the road. Great set up for BBQ and swimming in the pool. Perfect for a quiet getaway with family. The host was helpful and quick to respond. My boys learned how to surf here."

"Great place for a beach stay in Panama. We loved the resort,the staff,the beach. Keep in mind this is a more rustic area,but the value here is terrific. We really enjoyed it. Also food and drinks are very reasonably priced,and very good. "

"This was a great place to stay, with all kinds of interesting and fun stuff to do in close proximity. Hosts were amazing and very helpful. If you are thinking about staying in Boca Chica, you couldn’t do better! "
