Tucked away on one of the more quiet islands of the Bocas del Toro province in Panama, there is an ecolodge called 'Cocovivo'. Through a long chain of friends of friends, I discovered this little paradise where peacefulness is key. Originally set up as a co-working space, the owners of Cocovivo made this place a home away from home. Set up with the help of an indigenous Ngobe-Guble family, everything is ecological: yes, that means a compost toilet. If that does not convince you yet, then maybe the possibility to kayak surrounded by dolphins will. Or you can practice yoga on your stand-up paddleboard. Or jump from the diving board right in the Caribbean sea and explore the reef. Or go on a jungle walk and count all the sloths you can see. Or eat delicious food made with very very local ingredients. Or see the stars in the sky reflected in the water bioluminescent plankton. Who needs Bocas' party scene when you have the 'disco' lights above and underneath you right? A place where I could relax fully and that I wholeheartedly recommend! #troveon #thisbatteredsuitcase #cocovivo #caribbeanvibes

Hotel Bocas del Toro

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were clean and comfortable. The establishment next door did play very loud music late into the night. But after a full day of fun in Bocas I went right to sleep anyway."

Lula's Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"A nice, clean comfortable place to stay in town within walking distance from the marina etc. Tammy and her staff were friendly and helpful. There is a nice upstairs porch where you can relax and look at the water. The breakfast was good and it was nice that they provided bottled water, room in the refrigerator and beach towels. Definitely recommend! "
