Fabulous location, right on the water. Hosts were so welcoming and helpful. We stayed in the overwater rooms which were quite small and could use some TLC. The other rooms that we saw were excellent. The new swimming pool with poolbar and water views was a welcome place to relax. Joan and her staff were without exception so kind and accomodating and offered excellent local advice. Great restaurant and amazing cocktails. We took a four island boat tour (water taxi picked us up right at the property) which we thoroughly recommend, and the walk around Carenaro Island was fab with local eateries and stunning beaches. We very much enjoyed massage services on site! Bocas Town is a $1 water taxi away for later night fun.

We had a lovely stay at this unique hotel in Bocas during our journey trough Panama. Due to the demonstrations inside Panama, the hotel was empty during our stay, but we got more time to talk to the owners and they are lovely people who were so welcoming towards us. Having the hotel and the beautifull restaurant to ourselves was a funny situation, but sad of course for everyone who had to cancel their stays. The Cosmic Crab is such a Nice little pearl, we would love to go back one day and see it as it is supposed to be; full of people and life.

Me and a few friends decided to dine here during our weekend stay in Bocas only because someone recommended it. We are expats living in or near Panama City and some of us are retired, therefore we have our visas and we qualify for the senior jubilado discount. However, after telling the waiter that we would like to use our discount the owner comes out and basically tried to discourage us from using it by saying she's a small business among some other excuses. She stood there for almost 5 minutes repeatedly trying to discourage us. To make matters worst, she included the tip without our knowledge or approval. The food was way over priced and not good. Those that had the fish said it wasn't fresh, and that it was frozen. I will never go back there nor would I recommend it.

Excellent location, wonderful host, comfortable cottage and beds. Airconditioned. Just a $1 water taxi ride from the hustle and bustle of Bocas Town, The Cosmic Crab is a better option if you are looking for tranquility. A short hike through the jungle takes you to the beach on the other side of the Island, where the waters gently lap the sand! Breakfast at Cosmic Crab was delicious. Joan, our hostess, made sure we were comfortable and was extremely helpful and made super margaritas as well!

We loved this hotel. The staff are amazing and the location is great; only a 1 minute boat ride from Isla Colon which takes you directly to the hotel. The room was very spacious with comfortable beds and a small fridge. A half hour stroll through the friendly neighbourhood and you on the other side of the island. The only thing worth a mention was the air conditioner was a bit noisy but we found the nights were cool enough without it.

Great quiet location.
Easily accessable to water taxis to go to any islands.
The food and Bloody Marys at Cosmic Crab are so great. We stayed 2 weeks and ate multiple meals here and neither of us had a bad meal.
You can't go wrong here with location, food and cocktails.
