Bambuda Bocas Town

Sehr schönes Hotel in einer guten Lage. Alles ist Fuß läufig erreichbar.

In der Beschreibung war es nicht eindeutig ob es sich um ein Einzelzimmer handelt, da von einem eigenen Bad die Rede war. Es stellte sich heraus, dass ich mit 3 weiteren Personen das Zimmer teilen musste. Die Zimmer waren beengt, die Dusche war dreckig. Es waren Haare im Abfluss . Das Restaurant war traumhaft und der Service super. Ich konnte mir direkt Aktivitäten buchen und man wurde dort vom Boot abgeholt.

I would say if you are looking for an 'Instagram hotel' - this is the perfect place for you. However, in terms of service and the experience itself, we thought there was room for improvement. The front desk seemed too busy to look up from their laptop or say hello and make us feel welcome. We felt like we were bothering them if we asked a question or brought issues to their attention. Upon early arrival, we were told our room wasn't ready and we would need to return in hour. We went to their bar had a similar experience. We were the only ones sitting there and had to work to get someone attention. We bought some drinks and returned to the front desk after closing our tab. We were then given 2 welcome drink coupons, which we never used. It would have been much nicer to have been given these when we first arrived. They told us our room was up the stairs and the code and that was it. Some basic information about the hotel, Bocas town, their restaurant, check out time, and even where our room was would have been helpful. We did reserve a suite and lugged our suitcases up and down the stairs trying to find which floor it was on. (could someone have taken 2 minutes to walk us there?) Later that evening my husband was in the middle of showering when the water stopped working in the whole hotel. It did not go back on to a few hours later. Not their fault, but it would have been nice if they send us a What's App message to let us know it was fixed. Then he tried to sit in the hammock on the deck and the whole thing was dry rotted and snapped. Luckily we are young enough that he slammed onto his back and was still ok. Again looks pretty, but not sure if the function or safety is there. Glad I splurged and went for the Oceanview King Suite. The AC worked well, the Nespresso machine in the room was a plus and we slept fine despite being in the party town on Filthy Friday. We do appreciate the discount they gave us for the water not working without us asking. Perhaps our expectations were just unreasonably high for this hostel style hotel. However, the price point, photos, and recommendation from the hotel we stayed in previously on Isla Solarte made us expect a different experience, if even for a single night.

We had a very good experience, small hotel with all you need. Beautiful, great service, good food and drinks and a lot of entertainment too! Yoga in tge morning $10 Free paddle boards from 10-11 am Singers live on Wednesdays night. I recommend this hotel a 100%

Super clean hotel, nice view and the price ratio is great! There are also further activities to do (yoga etc.). Meals are also good and there are vegetarian options, if this is relevant. The stuff speaks english and if there are problems with the room they are extremely fast in helping out.

During my trip I tried out 3 different Bambuda hostels (in dormitories each time). I waited until I'd done all 3 before writing this review. Here is my personal experience : The staff are kind and helpful. You can ask them for any information. Concerning the restaurant, everything I ate was really good, they have a wide choice of western and more local dishes, and concerning prices nothing shocked me compared with other restaurants across the islands, even if, of course, they can always find cheaper! The hotel is not in the heart of the city, but as the city is anything but huge, there's no problem there! (5 min walk maybe?). This probably makes it a quieter place. The place itself is quite nice. Out of the 3 Bambudas I think they had the best dorms. I was in a 9-bed dorm room with air con and a bathroom (2 showers and 2 toilets). Everything was very clean, the lockers were big enough to hold our bags and there were also plugs inside to safely recharge our devices. There was thick curtains for each bed, allowing complete privacy and undisturbed light. It's also a bit of a party place, and a very cool one at that, with performing artists in the evening! The rooms are far enough away that you can't hear a thing. Very nice place to stay in Bocas Town. For your information, the taxi boat rides offered by the hotel are quite expensive so I advise you to find another station in town!
