Guest Reviews

• Jibid (6/5): Beautiful but old hotel - The owner was really nice but we had no hot water in our room, and had to take a shower in a different room. A breathtaking view from the hotel and the room balcony is tiny but great view!
• Martha Julissa (10/5): - Super bien la verdad, el lugar tiene unas vistas muy lindas y el personal atiende de maravilllas
• Verified traveler (6/5): - I have liked the House like a museum.A nice view.The Room we had very poor.Cold water noisy and no Breakfast includet for the Price of 94 Us Dollars.To much.Sewers ounder the ceiling
• Mirela (10/5): Superb Views, Excellent Cook, and Very Nice Hosts - The hotel is probably the second-best on the island, therefore, I suggest to put in balance the good and the "exotic" factors. The restaurant is really outstanding. More specifically, the dinner meals were absolutely delicious. I tried the tropical sauces, the Pizza, the salad - everything was very tasty. The hosts are very nice and try to help in any way they can. Always with a smile. The hotel is positioned only minutes from the landing dock of the ferry, just across the street from ones of the beaches, and still in "downtown" Taboga. It is very cutely decorated, with vintage and a mixed colonial and French theme. However, one has to take into account the inexpensive rooms and expect no fridge, no hair-drier, no working bed-lamps, and no luxury features. It is pretty difficult to get across any specific requests if you do not speak Spanish. There are a total of 65 steps from the street level to your room, so take that into consideration - in case you have any mobility issues. Also to keep in mind is that you are on a tropical island, with no screened windows and in a hot and humid climate, meaning you may encounter tiny ants in the bathroom, or even the odd mean-biting little fly. Make sure you pack some insect repellant if you are skin-sensitive.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The hotel is actually really good: well kept and nicely equipped Great view.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Hermoso hotel frente al mar con una incredible vista y una hermosa terraza para disfrutarla.
• Diana (8/5): Excelente - Super bien todo
• Dayra (10/5): Recomendable... - Súper, el lugar es bonito (pudiera serlo más), la comida riquísima, lo recomiendo.
• keyla (10/5): Buena experiencia - Super bien, el personal muy amable y está cerca de la playa.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - El lugar esta super bien ubicado, la habitacion espaciosa y cómoda, no colocan shampoo, deben llevar el suyo. Pensé que el abanico no sería suficiente por la noche pero si refrescó bastante. La vista super bonita desde la habitación. La cama suena demasiado, puede ser un poco molesto. Y las conversaciones y música de la habitación de al lado se escuchaban bastante. Le doy un 4/5 en general es bien tranquilo y comodo, volvería a ir. La señora que nos recibió fue muy amable.
• Usuario (6/5): - Me gusto la habitación con vista al mar. No había jabón, ni ninguna otra amenidad, el personal se iba durante varias horas y no había nadie en recepción para atender.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - A pleasing quaint place. Great location. Poor water pressure, no water at night. Poor wifi. Minimal air conditioning. Most rooms do NOT have air conditioning.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Las personas de recepción muy amables y tienen un amplio menú en el restaurante
• Cecilia (10/5): Excelente vista y ubicación!! - Excelente experiencia, es la segunda vez que nos hospedamos en este hotel y seguiremos visitándolo en los futuros paseos a Taboga!!
• Marisa (6/5): 1 of the limited choices on the island - For the price- the place is over rated, not sure the hotel rating at the current moment, but I would give it a 2. This being said, because you don't have many options for stay on the island. Pros- Authentic little hotel Open balcony to let in the fresh air ( temp. usually 35 C+) Only hotel that has a restaurant open in the evening Amazing view over looking the beach Great food with the limited options on the Island The wait staff which was also Bell boy, Maid, Handy man and go to person at the hotel, He spoke almost no English but was very attentive and great customer service The rooms have large ceiling fans Cons- You have to walk up about 80+ stairs to get to the hotel-- with luggages it was a nightmare. The rooms are small which is ok but not for the price No running water after 11pm till 7am - Toilet or sink No air conditioner in most of the rooms which is ok but they should add that to the hotel description when booking The rooms with air conditioner is an additional $25 a night -- Which didnt make any difference No fridge which is standard on any hotels in the island There was a visit in the middle of the night inside our room by a large cockroach --I understand insects are apart of island life-- No judgement just not a fan Check in process was a bit laid back All hotel charges are to be paid at the hotel- which is fine, this should be in the hotel description on the tour operators website. This is for the TOUR OPERATORS not hotel
• Sal (2/5): - I did not like. Did not even stay. Staff is worst ive dealt with in the last 15 years ive travel
• Verified traveler (8/5): - tolle Lage über dem Ort, sehr zentral gelegen. Stilvolles Ambiente der Gesamtanlage und der Zimmer. Relativ teures, hauseigenes Restaurant. Empfang sehr nüchtern, wir erhielten keine Informationen über das Hotel, seine Einrichtungen und die Möglichkeiten auf Taboga. Lag vielleicht auch daran, dass wir nur sehr wenig spanisch sprechen. Mehr Mühe seitens des Personals war trotzdem zu erwarten.
• Dayra (2/5): Terrible, not what we expected for the price. - The property is ok, but they do not take good care of it. We had no water at night and we could not take a shower in the morning, towels were ripped, no telephone, no change of towels, did not make the beds, no air conditioned, breakfast said 7:30 and the cook arrived at 8:00. Dinner was supposed to be at 6:30PM and they started serving at 8:00PM. The room had one chair and not even a small table.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - The view was excellent from the balcony. Must walk up 98 steps. Room small and outdated. Water turns on only at 7:30am. No helpful staff. Good location.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - I loved the view from room and dinning area. The hotel was very Well maintained.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Excelente ubicación, muy buenas instalaciones. La habitación no tenía aire acondicionado.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Quick Island Stay - Overall great, food was not super great though but decent enough.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Cerca de la playa, con restaurante y muy accesible.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Fue excelente la habitación , la atencion de principio a fin... deben visitar esta isla y alojarse.. precios economicos y la vista es bellisima.. totalmente regresaria a este hotel
• Lucy (6/5): - La comida es buena. Le falta variedad. Las camas son incómodas y me parecen peligrosas las literas.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Hotel was closed to the beach. It did not have a/c just a fan, not cool enough. Place needs upgrade all around. The food however was excellent.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Schönes Hotel mit toller Aussicht - Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit auf Taboga. Unser Zimmer hatte einen tollen Ausblick aufs Meer. Außerdem gehört ein gutes Restaurant mit einer großen Auswahl an Speisen zum Hotel.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Bonne emplacement et repas, mais surcharge - L'hôtel ne respecte les déjeuners inclus dans la confirmation. Elle réclame la totalité du coût des déjeuners qui ne sont pas continental sans préavis.
• Verified traveler (2/5): Bed bugs! (Chinches!) - The location and view are great, but our room had bed bugs... a lot of bed bugs. We woke up with 5 dead adults a couple of nymphs visible on our sheets and pillows along with a bunch of little blood stains, and there were many more bed bugs in all stages visible once we looked under the bed. I counted about 80 bites on myself. We were given a refund, and the hotel manager said that this is the first time they saw this (without displaying any surprise). I'm not sure if I believe that as the problem could not have gotten that out of hand without anyone realizing or complaining.
• Eileen (6/5): Tranquil - We spent 6 nights at Hotel Vereda Tropical in a double Oceanview room, fan but no A/C. Taboga is very hot and humid but we found that the fan and ocean breezes made the room reasonably comfortable. Small, but clean room. Bed was comfortable. There were 2 small bedside tables and a wardrobe but no hangers. I think they would have been supplied if requested. Flat screen TV with satellite TV. Hot water in shower did not work, shampoo not supplied. Unlimited drinking water was provided. Basic breakfast was included, including coffee, eggs and toast or pancakes and coffee. Abdil was the staff member who we primarily interacted with. He provided exemplary customer service and in my opinion is the primary reason that this hotel runs well. Nobody else was friendly or smiled. Room was cleaned on alternate days. You must be able to climb many stairs to access the hotel and rooms. Restaurant food was not great, but location provided for great views. Best thing was going to sleep to the sound of the waves. Wifi good in restaurant, spotty in the room.Spending time on Taboga requires one to be able to fall into the relaxing island rhythms, not much to do....
• Verified traveler (2/5): Kitchen chaos. - Our dining experience at Hotel Tropical Vereda was terrible and for this reason I would never return or recommend this hotel to anyone. Overpriced entree sized dishes with no flavour.
• Rafael Ernesto (4/5): DESILUSION EN TABOGA - Servicio de Hotel muy reducido, comida nada buena y costosa . Área de playa en malas condiciones y poco servicio
• Paul (8/5): Worth the climb - Recommend the rooms with a/c.
• Igor (8/5): - Amazingly safe and friendly community. Location of the hotel facing the sea is second to none. Easy to walk to the beaches (ferry to Panama-city incl) and hike numerous trails. Limited English spoken by the hosts. Could be considered as advantage and disadvantage.
• David (6/5): Un hostal bonito y muy tranquilo. - El personal no tiene actitud al servicio, no sonríen, no son amables. No son proactivos a fin de lograr que el cliente consuma y tome en cuenta volver.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Solo para un dia de playa - La atencion del hotel me parece que deben mejorarla, el hotel le falta un poco mas de cariño, me pareció abandonada, pensé que iba a conseguir algo mas acojedor. cuando llegamos no habia quien nos recibiera para anunciarnos, en la isla no hay agua pues se daño la bomba que surte la isla, agrazco que el hotel nos alla llamado para informarnos si con ese problema aun queriamos la reservacion, Me parece que los precios tanto del hotel, como de los restaurantes son costoso para el servicio prestado y la falta de mantenimiento. El desayuno del hotel sencillo pero igualmente esperamos como media hora pues no conseguia a nadie que nos atendiera. Para un dia de playa esta bien.No creo que me vuelva a quedar en la isla, hay que invertir mas en el turismo a mi parecer. Lo mejor la Vista. y la playa.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Hotel agredable - Hotel intimo, pero no habia agua. Tenian grandes problemas con la planta de agua de la isla. Pudimos estar solamente una noche. Y habia mucho ruido. Estan renovado la costanera
• Verified traveler (6/5): Agradable - Hotel bonito pero descuidado. Hay que darle cariño a las instalaciones y tener mejor calidad en la comida que ofrece.
• Verified traveler (10/5): La mejor opción en Taboga - Todo excelente, la mejor ubicación y relación calidad-precio.
• Dan (10/5): hotel en Isla pequeña - Tranquilidad y comodidad en una isla agradable, frente a la playa y casi en la playa. Una vista maravillosa al mar. tiene restaurante con buen servicio y uno de los pocos de la isla. La isla es pequeña.
• Adriana (8/5): A weekend to Relax - Good Experience, comfortable hotel, there is nothing to do at night but if you are going just to relax is excellent
• Ian (10/5): An Island Jewel - Hotel Vereda was just plain awesome with its great views and excellent staff. The food was traditional and excellent. Some may have issue with lack of Internet access in their rooms. You're on the beautiful Island of Flowers and need to be outside exploring. Nonetheless, good access is available in the common areas. This is my 4th trip to Taboga but first stay at Hotel Vereda. I was impressed with the quality of construction and attention to small details.
• Edith Teresa (8/5): Hotel cómodo, con excelente música y atención al. - La familia lo disfruto muy bien.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Nice and tidy - It was a pretty room, nice and tidy. Decent beds and fan. Amazing view over the harbour and sea. Friendly staff and cute dogs. Breakfast was basic but tasty. If I come back to Taboga I would definitly stay here again!
• Verified traveler (8/5): - el personal es muy amable. la comida excelente es un hotel con una vista maravillosa y un estilo antiguo muy acogedor. Solo que por una cama adicional me parece que cobrar 20 mas es un poco exagerado pero me encanto todo lo demas es un buen lugar para quedarse
• Rene (6/5): - Problem with the water, water was available only for 15 minutes every hour
