Azul Paradise Resort♡

Pretty far out location. Very isolated and that can be good sometimes! Be prepared to take an expensive shuttle boat both ways offered twice a day and if you miss it, it's a $150 boat taxi. Cocktails were great! Restaurant was slow with okay food and relatively expensive, but no other options around. Bastimentos is a cool island, I found more to do on the island closer to Bocas Town.

This was a beautiful property! Such a special experience staying in an over the water bungalow! Food and drink they offered was delicious! There is a refrigerator in the room, I wish we would have bought some snacks and beverages before leaving Bocas Town to keep in our room. Staff was super friendly and helpful.

This property is very remote. It’s lovely and relaxing but way overpriced. It’s not as plush as it seems online. The staff were not super friendly and overall I would not recommend unless I paid half price. It was not worth the money.

We arrived to Bocas Del Toro with ease, and found Captain Eddie who gave us an unforgettable trip by boat to Azul Paradise. We arrived to fresh coconuts cut open, given to us by Jordano, who let us know the room would be ready shortly (and it was), he let have us a tour of where and when to eat. Let us know what they have to offer. The first day lunch and dinner was excellent. Chef is an easy 10/10. However, that’s where the magic ended. Day 2 was a gorgeous morning. We set up a trip to Monkey Island (also awesome). However, early day 2, a boat arrived with 2 Police and 3 people, no explanation. 1 was the Lawyer, we met last day. The office was then closed the rest of our stay! No bandaids, no nothing. Jordano was on the run. there were arguments between who we believe to be the owners, police, and a gentlemen who was arrested. All day, out in the open! With the office closed the staff didn’t have any guidance on what to do. Supplies for drinks/Food ran low. All things considered they did their best. They’re great people with wonderful insight into the nearby Ngobe community. The management ruined what is an incredible location. They should be ashamed. We were told the charges would be on the card to the room. And the last day they demanded cash before we left - and there’s no ATM on the island!! I’m running out of space. But the place needs TLC, and better management/ownership to be given an amazing review. Which is a shame bc the location & staff are amazing!

The staff was amazing. The food was good. The room was beautiful. I stayed in one of the above water bungalows. The only downfall is there is very little to do nearby. You are pretty much stranded on this island unless you arrange some kind of transport or tour. If you’re looking for a vacation where you can totally check out from the world this is it. If you’re looking for a place to do lots of activities, this is not. Management took care of everything I asked for, including an unexpected early arrival.
