Holiday rentals in Chiriqui Grande

Staying at Marco’s Barrbra BnB was easily one of the best travel decisions I’ve ever made. From the breathtaking views to the warm, cozy atmosphere, every moment felt like a dream. The homemade breakfast crafted with love by their amazing in-house chef quickly became a personal favorite. But what truly sets this place apart is the incredible hospitality from Marco and his team. Their dynamic is seamless and heartfelt. You can tell they genuinely care about each guest’s experience. The level of attention and customer service they provide goes far beyond expectations it’s thoughtful, personal, and full of warmth. Marco also offers a personalized guide full of local recommendations, helpful tips, and tools to navigate Bocas del Toro with ease. It was truly the icing on the cake. Thanks to them, my entire trip ran smoothly and was full of unforgettable memories. Without a doubt, I’ll be back and I’ll absolutely be staying at Marco’s Barrbra BnB again. I couldn’t recommend it more!

Julia’s place is an absolute gem, nestled in the calm waters of the Caribbean Sea at the southern tip of Isla Cristóbal—about a 30-minute boat ride from the main island, Isla Colón. From the moment we arrived, we felt like we were stepping into a unique off-grid paradise. The house itself is self-sustaining, powered by solar energy and using filtered rainwater (which, by the way, tastes amazing!). While there’s no air conditioning, there are plenty of fans to keep the air moving. The views from the house are absolutely stunning. In the mornings, dolphins often patrol the area like local marine police, and right beneath the house, we saw massive snappers swimming in the clear waters. If you paddle out into deeper water by kayak or paddleboard, you’ll likely spot graceful rays gliding beneath you—an unforgettable experience. Victoriano, a local caretaker, was extremely helpful on the property and in surrounding areas and guided us on a hike to see the sloths and the monkeys.

A whimsical fairytale come to life!
We stayed in this incredible apartment in Jaramillo, Boquete for 4 days, and it truly exceeded every expectation. The views from the garden were simply breathtaking—lush greenery, a peaceful pond, and a chorus of bird songs every morning. It was far better than any hotel experience we’ve had in Boquete. The apartment was fully equipped and thoughtfully designed—every little detail had been considered. We felt instantly at home. Our 2-year-old was in heaven, waking up each day excited to run outside, listen to the birds sing, and watch the fish in the pond. Thank you, Scott, for being such a warm and attentive host. This place is magical, peaceful, and deeply nourishing—we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for something truly special.

I went with a group of friends for coffee-related activities. The cabin was 15 minutes from the town center in a lovely location. Everything was neat, nice and clean. Spacious, complete, nothing missing. Comfortable beds, fast Wi-Fi, complete kitchen, space to park the car and my favorite thing: a beautiful living room illuminated by natural light with a lovely natural view. Both hosts, Vivianne and Mrs. Chichi responded in a timely manner. I arrived late at night and it wasn’t a problem because I got the instructions on how to get inside without the host receiving you. I recommend it 999999%

Our stay was perfect. Lovely location, good communication, great amenities and very relaxing environment.

What an amazing and peaceful place! The bungalow opens right onto the sea, and we loved sitting in silence, watching the waves, passing boats, and beautiful birds. Just a few meters away is a sandy beach with warm water and starfish to admire. The house provides snorkeling gear and canoes. My husband and I especially enjoyed the outdoor kitchen, living and dining areas under the incredible thatched roof. James and Lucy were wonderful hosts—super helpful with organizing our boat transfers and checking in about groceries when boats went to the main island. They also connected us with Calypso, a guide for the Salt Creek Community visit (highly recommended) and a talented chef who prepared a delicious Caribbean meal for us. We were there during low season, but a restaurant was open a 10 minute walk away. Everyone we met on the island was delightful. If you love remote, authentic places, this is a true paradise. Going back to the busy world was hard. We could have stayed forever :) Thx!!!

Our little family lives every moment spent at the villa! We felt an amazing combination of luxury and home like feeling. Everything was clear, clean, well thought through! Morgan went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing stay. HIGHLY recommend! Thank you for the amazing stay!

We loved the location, just far enough from the town to feel secluded but close enough for convenience. Amazing beach just a 2 minute walk away. Fun and comfy stay with AC and all basic needs but you are in the jungle and that comes with jungle friends. Had some small issues with the water as it is rain water dependant but easily fixed by Helena and her wonderful neighbour Alison. Alison is also great if you have any questions about the island! Overall a super cool vacation and highly recommended!
