• michael (7/5): Beau séjour au bord de la mer - Les hôtes sont des personnes charmantes La chambre est très rudimentaire et il n’a pas d’eau chaude
• V (4/5): - Absolut kahles Zimmer mit winzigem Fenster zur Rezeption/Küche hin wo die ganze Nacht Licht brannte… Obwohl alles leer stand wurde uns kein anderes Zimmer gegeben Preis-Leistungsverhältnis unterirdisch Frühstück teuer Meer und Ufer total verschmutzt
• Kim (9/5): -
• Hector (9/5): Fantastic staff and excellent diving. - Super friendly and welcoming team, from management, to the dive staff, and the restaurant team, everyone was very friendly and helpful. The location is also unbeatable, steps from the water. Wake up, have breakfast overlooking the bay, and jump on the boat waiting to take you diving. Awesome experience! The accommodations were still in development but good enough to enjoy your time here.
• alexa (6/5): - Hôtel situé au bord de mer, sans plage pour se baigner. Les chambres sont assez basiques et moyen en général.
• Yekaterina (10/5): - La ubicación y el trato de la Sra. Dayra y familia.
• Martínez (10/5): -
• Jose Leonardo (8/5): - La facilidad de ir a otros lugares cercanos en lancha o en carro
• JOSE M. CASTILLO (9/5): Hotel pequeño pero bien ubicado, con excelente servicio y lo necesario, limpio y acogedor - La atencion de la Sra. Dayra nos hizo sentir como si estuviesemos en casa. Habitaciones comodas, bien limpias y con lo necesario y buena ubicacion a solo minutos del centro de Portobelo El internet estaba algo intermitente y faltaba la Television
• 松本 (10/5): 皆さんが優しく対応してくださいました -
• Nicole (5/5): - La vista Hay que tomar lancha para ir a una playa cercana para bañarse, no se puede en el mismo lugar.
• Deambrosi (9/5): A perfect, convenient hostel at Portobelo - ideal for diving and snorkeling - The hotel is mainly devoted to diving, and as such, the installations are oriented to this purpose. There is a private boat, leaving just from the hotel´s dock and equipment (snorkels, tanks,) is first-class. Simple, yet very tasty home-cooked food is available at very reasonable price. The location is very close to the entrance of Portobelo and its historic ruins, at walking distance. Portobelo is a quiet, very interesting, genuine historic and fokfloric location, blessed by a wonderful sea. The hotel is being improved and refurbished, the rooms are still very simple, yet enough for an unformal stay. A great plus, the very single ATM existing in Portobelo can be found at less than 80 meters, and protected by the police station. Staff is very, very kind, and multingual. Highly recommendable. None, it fits perfect for the purpose, no luxury.
• Holland (9/5): La Posada de Buzo - The staff, including the owners, were exceptionally kind, friendly and accommodating. My friend needed a fridge for his medication and it was provided immediately. The food was freshly prepared and delicious. The location by the water was quiet. peaceful and breezy and plus it wasn't too far from Portobello proper. Unfortunately it was the rainy/wet season which I was unaware of (mid April to December) so we weren't able to go on the trips available but the the hotel was not to blame for this obviously.
• Gp (7/5): Hotel or Diving School? - Beautiful location only a few minutes drive from Portobello. Helpful hotel staff, restaurant onsite (closes at 6pm, very clean, nicely decorated. A diving school operates from the hotel and some of the instructors live on site. They have a poor attitude towards hotel guests. When we checked in we asked the hotel receptionist if we could use the communal kitchen to access a fridge and heat water, which we understood she agreed. In the morning while heating the water, we were confronted by one of the diving instructors who demanded we get out of this area, as it was for staff only. Her aggressive behaviour towards us was totally unnecessary and left us feeling humiliated. As a result we would not recommend a stay here unless you are diving. It is a shame as the hotel staff work hard but sadly their efforts are ruined by some of the instructors who seem to think the entire property belongs to them. I hope they show more empathy with their diving students
• Lori (10/5): Wonderful experience. Would recommend. - Specialized vacation spot for divers. Clean waterfront room. Beautiful location. Warm and welcoming staff, family run. Great restaurant right on site. Perfect for scuba diving and snorkeling. 1 mile from town Portobelo with historical sites. Loved it all.
• Karsten (3/5): Too much for too little - Very friendly and funny hosts. And they let me leave early without paying the rest of the booked days. An almost empty room for 77$. Two beds, one plastic cupboard, one bedside table. No chair, no desk, no reading lamp, no pictures, no hammok, cold shower. For this money I get a whole appartment on booking.com in the capital.
• Torleif (9/5): Superb - Clean room and about 80meter to dive shop. And about 80 meter to boat. Profesional and fantastic dive crew! And special thanks to Yani and her patience with my bad nonexistent Spanish 😁 Door to bathroom should be fixed, nothing special.
• Laurene (8/5): Nice located hotel seafront - The property is well located and the staff helped me to book a trip boat last minute to go to the beach The restaurant was closed on Tuesday evening and I was not aware of it
• Trinidad (10/5): Great location, lovely staff, good food and nice view. A really reccomend this place to stay - The staff is absolutely amazing and kind
• Lookingforawesome (10/5): A hidden gem in Portobelo, best value for your money. - Location has a boat dock, and an outside captain that can do snorkerling trips. It also has a little beach area where you can swim. The hotel has it's own diving boats and tours, so you can book with them directly for trips. There's an unused bar right on the water, so you can enjoy your drinks there. Room was clean, comfortable, and had enough beds for all of us. Sitting on the porch, you can relax listening to the waves and cool off from the ocean breeze. Staff was very friendly, and the managers speak English. The dining area has breakfast and dinner options (didn't stay long enough to find out about lunch). Dinner was delicious and reasonably priced. There's also another very good restaurant about 3-5 minutes walking distance away if you prefer to go there instead. I believe there's a police station nearby, so we were not concerned about safety/security. I liked that the managers gave you the option of late checkout when nobody is booked on your departure date, they're very accomodating. I'd recommend putting more chairs at the porch so guests don't have to share with other guests next door. Parking lot gets muddy when it rains, so placing a rug outside the door would help guests brush off the dirt before entering the room. In the bathroom, I recommend adding more towel hooks so guests can hang wet gear and towels. I recommend offering drinks at the outside bar at night and playing some lively music to draw out the guests. We ended up taking our store purchased beers there and enjoying the night from that spot, but I would have loved to buy cocktails if it was available.
• George (10/5): Had a wonderful time here. Beautiful views, Enrique and the rest of the staff were always very kind and accommodating. V - Awesome location. Very serene with a great view with restaurant on site that serves delicious food Nothing
