Mosana Reef Garden B&B is set in Bluff Beach, 5 km from Bocas Town and 26 km from Buena Vista. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar. Free WiFi is available and free private parking is available on site.

Some units feature views of the sea or garden.

In comparison to two other accommodations, Mosana was our highlight. If I had known about them prior, I would have made different accommodations for most of the time in Bocas del Toro and stay with them. Nadia and Salvatore are excellent hosts. Our room had a comfortable bed, bath and outside patio with kitchen accessories and a small refrigerator means you can stay here for a number of days very comfortably. A sea level concrete deck outside offers guests sunbathing and access to the water for wading and swimming. A few steps away a covered patio stands along the coast line adjacent to the kitchen area where Breakfast and dinner can be served. The food prepared is very good-excellent! Prices good! I would return here in the future.

Each room has a private bathroom with a hot water shower, comfortable beds with canopy mosquito nets, overhead fans and furniture crafted on-site from local materials.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included in the cost of your stay and the on-site organic gardens supply many of the ingredients for meals.

Tree houses are amazing. Self sufficient facility (energy and water) It is a chance to sleep with high comfort but fully open to nature. A chance for a free chocolate farm tour to better understand the process from tree nut to chocolate cake. The meals are five stars restaurant quality: creative, fresh, cooked with local and property grew legumes and fruits. A chance to see sloths and monkeys. An unique experience not to miss.

    The price is very cheap, especially for a private room. Hostel was pretty quiet and chill. Kitchen was well equipped and there’s plenty of refrigeration space. Staff were helpful. Located very close to restaurants, bars, clubs and boat taxi harbours.

    It was just lovely and Gabriel was the most fantastic host. He couldn't do enough to help and was utterly charming. The room was a good size and clean. The breakfast was delicious with fresh fruit and a very tasty omlette.

    Very nice accomodation with great hosts, good cocktails, great pool, big garden and great food. The host built the whole thing by themselves, which is very impressing. We stayed at the big bungalow and it was simply perfect. If you want to relax and calm down this is the place to be. Food is not cheap but very good! I can totally recommend this place and would love to stay there again pretty soon!

    Sandrine was a great host, she made amazing breakfast in the morning with crepes and fresh fruit. Having breakfast with a beautiful view was the highlight of our stay :) The rooms were clean and spacious, with all amenities. There was always fresh drinking water available. There are bicycles that you can borrow that makes it very easy to get to restaurants/groceries/etc. We really enjoyed our stay and recommend Villa Amaya 10/10.

    Sally and Mike are great hosts! Very friendly, very helpful, it was an amazing stay overall. The whole place is very cosy, comfortable, rooms and bathrooms are very spacious, clean and cute and with AC! You can also borrow snorkle and kayak and rent bikes and they give you great tips on places to visit nad eat. The best place for a 'honeymoon' stay in Bocas if you look for a quiet place where you can jump in the water right after breakfast :)

    One of the best all round apartments I’ve ever stayed in, particularly on an island. Extremely well equipped with lots of thoughtful touches around the place to make the stay as comfortable as possible. Great location, quiet but near everything. Brilliant host! Very friendly and helpful person who will go out of her way to make everything perfect for your stay and give advice on what to do/where to go. The bikes included with the apartment were also a big bonus for getting around the island.

    We had a perfect stay at Saigon Bay B&B. Comfortable and clean rooms, amazing breakfasts, great location over the water with lovely outdoor space, we could use bikes, a kayak and snorkelling gear to explore the island. Angie and Nicolas are great hosts. Always ready to help and super friendly and attentive. We’re definitely coming back here when visiting Bocas again. Thanks for everything!
