my girlfriend and I spent two lovely nights there. the rooms are perfect, service is exceptional, and the setting is beautiful. stacey, the chief architect and owner, looks spares no detail and is also a fantastic cook, and the food is very reasonably priced. we spent endless hours lounging around on the hotel grounds, drinking in the bar looking at... more

My wife, children and myself found La Coralina to be a wonderful experience. Although off the beaten path, the hotel is located on a bluff overlooking the ocean w/ incredible vistas and 3D surround sound of the waves crashing. The food is great, service was good for Bocas standards and the host excellent (Stacy). Unfortunately, other reviews have tried to... more

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 3 nights during a 2-week backpacking trip through Central America -- our nights at La Coralina were our splurge, and it was absolutely worth it. The view from our ocean suite bungalow was gorgeous; the beach directly below the hotel was intimate; Stacy and her staff were friendly, fun, and took great care... more

Love, love, love La Coralina. A beautifully restored boutique hotel set on a hillside overlooking the ocean. My only complaint is that I didn't have enough time there. The pictures on their website really don't do it justice. It is stunning. Well worth the bumpy ride from Bocas town. This is where you want to be. We stayed in the... more

We might be in the minority, but we found La Coralina vastly overated. The location is nice and the owner has decorated the place nicely. Having said we were very disappointed. This was part of a much longer trip, where I was introducing some family members to Panama and we went budget most of the way so we could splurge... more

We stayed for 3 nights and we totally enjoy our stay in this beautifull hotel, with a great atmosphere, a wonderfull terrasse overviewing the coast, the best food and drinks we had for our 3 weeks in Costa Rica and Panama holidays, and staff is just great. It's away enough from busy bocas town, but still easily reachable with a... more

Just stayed in La Coralina and not having been to Bocas Del Toro before, or even Panama, we were not sure what to expect, however, we were not disappointed. This is a fantastic hotel, with incredibly warm, friendly and helpful staff and a very friendly owner Stacey. We stayed in one of the suites and it was wonderful; beautifully decorated,... more

We stayed for four days at La Coralina with our five-year-old daughter. The staff was very friendly, the food was delicious, and we had great walks on the beach with the resident dogs (Lola and Sugar). Our daughter was welcomed, and praised for her good mellow disposition. It is a mix of mostly couples, but we met another family traveling... more

What a wonderful, beautiful, and peaceful hotel this is. I don't think I have the superlatives to describe how much we enjoyed our stay at La Coralina. Stacy and her staff have created a paradise outside of Bocastown that should be on everyones "must see" list. The location is between Paunch Beach and Bluff Beach along a very worn out... more
