Reviews of Bocas Bound

09 April 2012 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Off if the main island, a ten minute boat journey, with a really relaxed atmosphere and a short walk from beautiful red frog beach. Dorms were cool and clean and the facilities were extensive including a good restaurant and grocery shop as well as an activity centre to organise tours.

Disliked: Only problem was originally getting there, got ripped off by a boat driver. To avoid this don't get a boat from the BMT pier where you will get dropped. Walk down to the red frog connection pier to the right as you exit.

Liked: This property is in a remote area in the jungle and on the beach. The staff is quite helpful and the facilites are nice. It feels a little bit like camp. Games and a big lodge area for people to hang out and meet up.

Liked: This hostel has the best location in the Bocas area. There are three beaches that are basically empty within a ten minute walk. The restaurant/ hang out area has a view of the ocean and an amazing atmosphere. Some of the staff members are also amazing to talk to.

Disliked: The restaurant is still a bit pricey without a bit of a discount for people staying at the hostel. This would be fine if the hostel kitchen was properly stocked. The pots are broken, the cooking utensils bend when you try to use them and the can opener cannot actually open a can.

23 May 2010 David would recommend this property

Liked: The restaurant/social area was really spacious with table-tennis and pool, extremely close to a handful of beautiful beaches, staff were friendly, rooms were A/C'd to the max (which sometimes was a little too cold, but perfect most of the time) and the place was really, really relaxed. If you're determined to get to somewhere peaceful and deserted where you are away from it all i would recommend Bocas Bound. The only downside is that it is quite tricky to get to, it takes a couple of water taxis to get there, but that's to be expected as it's a remote location.

Liked: I liked the location in walkind distance from some very nice beaches. And the communal area is great. It is very far from everything, except for the beaches: no shops or restaurants or tours.

Liked: The location is the best and worst thing about this place. For a few days, it's a great place to be if you want to relax and enjoy one of the most pristine, nice beach areas in all of Bocas. The beaches within walking distance from there are pretty awesome, and there aren't any other places to stay near there besides this place. The bad thing about the location is that if you want to see the other islands, go to Bocas town where everything is, go surfing, join boat tours, etc., you have to pay for expensive water taxis every time, especially if it's after 5 PM.The staff members are friendly, helpful, and one of the strong points of this hostel. Having A/C in the dorms is quite nice too, which most hostels don't have.

Liked: This place is the best ever!! it is just 5 min walk from red frog beach the best in bocas del toro, then it has everything you need although internet was not connected when I arrived, there were only a couple of guests and very into them so I felt lonely sometimes. This place is like a luxury resort with the price of a youth hostel. It has ping pong table, pool table, nice views of the sea, it is in the jungle but very safe, safe water to drink!! and the food is excellent! It was very peaceful and quiet at nights, the staff left to Bocas to party every night.
