Beach Hotels & Resorts in Big Creek from NZ$133

"We had the suite on top floor with balcony overlooking the bay. Very spacious, enough sleeping for a family of 5, and everyone got their own bed. AC worked well. The staff are SUPER SUPER nice and helpful. We got there early and they stored our bags for us and gave us beach and other suggestions. "

"Amazing boutique hotel. Loved it. "

"Our stay at Playa Tortuga was unfortunately very disappointing. From the moment we checked in, it was clear that the property is poorly maintained. The overall cleanliness of the place was lacking, especially in the rooms and bathrooms. The bathroom was in unacceptable condition—there was no shower head, visible stains on the walls and fixtures, and we even encountered roaches, which was extremely unpleasant and concerning. The room itself did not feel clean or well cared for, which made the stay uncomfortable. Basic maintenance and hygiene standards were clearly not met. For a hotel that markets itself as a relaxing place to stay, this was far from the experience we expected. The food was average at best. While it was edible, it did not stand out in terms of quality or variety. To make matters worse, on the day of checkout, we went for breakfast at 7:30 AM and were told that breakfast was not available, even though the hotel states that breakfast starts at 7:00 AM. It appeared that service only begins once more guests arrive, which is very inconvenient for travelers with early plans. Overall, this stay was a letdown due to poor cleanliness, lack of proper maintenance, and inconsistent service. Based on our experience, I would not recommend Playa Tortuga to anyone, and we would not consider staying here again."

"We received a room upgrade due to being assigned the wrong room upon arrival. The room was brand new and large with a comfortable bed and huge bathroom. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The restaurant meals were excellent with good portions. And the pool with the swim up bar was a welcome treat. portions. "

"Viaje con mi familia, simplemente un lugar mágico "

"We were treated well, we ate well, and we slept well."

"Stayed recently for 4 nights. A beautiful property the street from a pretty beach and just down the street from a more usable beach to spend time on. The managers, Steve and Karen, are lovely people that we really enjoyed talking with, very attentive to our needs and helped us out with getting payment to a restaurant when we didn't have cash, but had planned on paying by card. I LOVED the A/C and it would cool down the room fairly quickly, which was great. Bed was comfy, the bathroom nice, everything was quaint and clean. Breakfast was DELICIOUS!! Dama prepared (as well as Karen) made delicious omelettes, sausage dishes, coconut bread, home-made jams (SO yummy!). Only suggestions are: (this one is TOUGH, I know) an elevator (Steve brought up my bag-so kind). Some info. about arrival, as we sat in our taxi at the gate for quite awhile, trying to call and get a hold of someone to let us in. Had my son jump the short gate (didn't know it was unlocked). Met Steve, he said all taxi drivers know to just come in, ours didn't. I was disappointed to find out that we couldn't flush our TP down the toilet. I this to be common in Latin America, but with charge for nice B&B, seems an investment could be made in plumbing, but maybe it just doesn't work in Bocas del Toro. Otherwise FANTASTIC place to stay. Nice and quiet -peaceful. Power went out for 25 min. one night, but came on quickly. Steve and Karen are great! "
