Vacation rentals in Isla Cristóbal

Absolutely incredible stay! The villa in Bocas del Toro was everything we dreamed of and more. Captain Eric was a true gem—always making sure we had a boat ready whenever and wherever we wanted to go. His local knowledge and friendly vibe made every outing seamless and fun. The chefs were outstanding, treating us to delicious breakfasts each morning that started our days off perfectly. Between the stunning views, top-notch service, and warm hospitality, this place is a slice of paradise. Five stars all the way!

An absolutely perfect stay! The cabin is nestled in a beautiful, wild jungle with a true sense of nature and a unique atmosphere. Heather and Lori were amazing hosts – warm, kind, and always available to help. They took care of picking us up and dropping us off at the airport, provided excellent tips for exploring the area, and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. A truly unforgettable experience!

I’ve stayed in at least 49 Air Bnbs, and Denis’ place is number 1! It was the perfect place for me and my husband to spend a blissful week. Highlights: Geraldine’s cooking was over-the- top delicious! We loved them all, breakfast, lunch and dinners. The taste and presentation was world class. The cocktails were unique and yummy. We especially loved the peanut punch. Her meals were so nutritious that we left healthier and happier. The food was locally sourced or caught by Denis Denis’ Dolphin Bay tour was great and we loved the snorkeling. We saw a giant sting ray! We enjoyed the variety of birds around the eco lodge. We also took a tour to the Nöbä indigenous cacao plantation. Very interesting and a wonderful lunch. And we also did the dolphin and sloth tour and had great sightings of both. So much to do, and also just a great place to stay and relax. On our last day we kayaked and snorkeled from the eco lodge. Before we left they gave great advice on Panama City.

It was wonderful to meet Casa Cacao and Meiv and Vladi. Very exceptional people. The stay exceeded all our expectations. We regret not having had more time to stay. We recommend taking the chocolate tour, it was very informative, a valuable experience, we tried varieties of cocoa fruit from its tree and learned the whole process of making chocolate. Very grateful to Vladi and Meiv for the kindness of taking us to the road. We wish you success and will be back.

A QUIET PARADISE. This place is lush, tropical and beautiful. Todd's casita is on an island with no roads and the place is surrounded by jungle. The only way there is by boat. So if you want peace and tranquility, this space cannot be beaten. Wake up to the sounds of parrots, a view of the ocean through coconut trees and then eat fresh, tropical fruit picked from one of the many fruit trees. Paradise. Then swim, paddle or snorkel off of the palapa. We snorkeled every day and saw numerous rays, squid, a moray eel and other beautiful aquatic life. There are many good Airbnb hosts and then there is Todd. Immensely helpful, and very kind and considerate. He routinely checked in on us and was so responsive and generous with his suggestions and the use of things on the space. He loves his home and wants to share the beautiful space with like minded travelers. The caretaker, Juan, is quiet, respectful and very kind. His son, Li, is awesome and will transport guests anywhere

Staying at this jungle treehouse was an unforgettable experience for us. The location is absolutely stunning — waking up to the sounds of nature and being surrounded by lush greenery felt like a dream. The common area was super cozy and perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Our host was amazing, always available and full of fantastic recommendations that made our trip even more special. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat in the heart of nature, this is it.

Wonderful cabin in the middle of the jungle and with an ocean view from the whole house. It has a private dock where you can sunbathe and swim in crystal clear water overlooking the jungle and bay. Elena is an excellent host, she gave us a lot of information on what to do and how to get around the island, as well as inviting us to a yoga class led by her in a beautiful place. We had an amazing time, we would definitely stay there again.

Dorien made us stay in the small 2-seater cabin visible in the photos. The cabin is very simple, with a fan. The toilets and showers are separate, but very close and clean. Dorien is full of attention: she welcomed us warmly, provided us with kayaks and snorkeling equipment and recommended hikes on the island. She also offers all of her Cacao farm during which she will not hesitate to show you all the animals and plants that live in her home, including a lazy family and Felipe the parrot. Her kids and volunteers are there to brighten up meals. We had a very pleasant stay, in a very quiet and peaceful little corner and in very simple but perfectly functional and pleasant conditions. Loved it! Dorien can arrange pickups from other lodges with her Captain:)
