Casas de Férias em Isla Popa, 1

"Writing this review to quiet some of the concerns of the previous reviewer… this rental was amazing! First, the views cannot be beat and the outdoor deck living space is just wonderful. It is the highest location in this particular spot of Basti, with amazing views and a breeze. It’s basically a very unique tropical jungle treehouse high above the town. The ACs in the bedrooms work very well and there is consistently hot water, with strong water pressure - things that are hard to find on...

"Good location. Easy walking distance to several restaurants, bars, and coffee. Quick taxi into town. Enjoyed a visit one afternoon from howler monkees in the backyard trees. Would stay again."

"Old Bank is a community of contrasts. The Jamaican heritage was great, people generally friendly, and genuine. The downside was the massive piles of garbage strewn along the walkways and ocean. There were also warnings about safety and thieves on the beaches. Firefly restaurant is a must go for great food and service. It is more expensive, but worth it. Steve is a terrific communicator and obviously loves the people there. Basti is not comfortable for physically challenged, but if you want a...

"This home is a great space in an even greater location!!!!!! My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our short stay, and will be back!!!!!"

"Remote and quiet place away from the maddening crowds and noise. Great for relaxing and snorkeling. The water is warm, clear and very safe to swim in. (apart from couple of hours of wind it was like a mirror - no waves and smooth) There is a narrow band of coral in front of the villas with many colorful fish. Bring your food (fully equipped kitchen) otherwise you have to go to Bocas Town to eat. Each way boat charges 10 USD per person and it quickly adds up. Bring bug repellent because those...

"The house is beautiful and has a fully stocked kitchen. The layout is wonderful for a family. The hosts were so helpful with everything on the trip, from finding us a rental vehicle to bringing us lanterns when the power failed on half the island and giving us ground coffee after we forget to buy some. The beach is less than a 5 minute walk away and it’s beautiful and secluded. The host also owns the S Hotel next door and we enjoyed a delicious dinner there. Around the property we saw monkeys...

"We enjoyed our stay & plan to return! Home was very clean and contained all necessities. Host was very communicative, and property manager was on site in a separate home and assisted us immediately when we had any questions. The beds were super comfortable, bedrooms had wonderful air conditioning and storage. We enjoyed the open air living room and kitchen, feeling truly one with nature."

"Our stay at Urraca Private Island is the most awesome, memorable lodging experience we’ve had (and that’s saying a lot, because we travel frequently and have had many fantastic experiences). The place is amazing, kind of a cross between Swiss Family Robinson, Robinson Crusoe, and a high end Africa-style resort with adventure amenities like kayaks. And monkeys! This is the only place we know of that enables us to directly interact with sweet monkeys, even having one jump on our shoulders. The...
