Outstanding location and people
The island, beach and people (hosts, caretaker, cook) are wonderful. Armodio (caretaker who lives next door) and his family made our stay so enjoyable and easy. Ely’s assistance with getting to and from the airport was very helpful. We hired Adi to cook a few meals for us and they were outstanding (our kids are still talking about the tacos she made). Watching the sunrise and listening to the birds on the 2nd story balcony every morning was a highlight for me. The lodge is very large and provided more than enough space for our group of 4 kids and 4 adults. The kids had a blast with easy access to swim, snorkel and play on the beach. We enjoyed an island boat tour, a trip to Green Acres Chocolate Farm (about 20-3 minute water taxi away), morning coffee at Casa Acuario (5-10 minute walk), ice cream and surf lessons at Mukundo (5 minute walk), and watching the sunset at Cosmic Crab (2-3 minute boat taxi). The lodge is rustic/tropical and Bocas is experiencing a drought which (rightly so) limits water use. If you are seeking luxurious accommodations, this is not the rental for you. If you seek comfortable accommodations with easy access to amazing people, activities, some dining and the beach…10/10 recommend. Bring bug spray.

Beautiful House in Paradise!
We had a wonderful stay at Vista Azul. Easy and friendly communication from the host and wonderful hospitality from the team on the ground (Ely and Armodio) who stayed in touch with us throughout the visit and made sure we had everything we needed. Carenero is a beautiful island with a few great restaurants and bars in easy walking distance of the house. We especially loved the laid back vibe at Coquito's, the excellent Sunday BBQ at Receta Michilá and the amazing espresso and breakfasts at Casa Aquario. The chitras (no-see-ums) are no joke on the island, so bring plenty of bug spray!

The location was absolutely perfect. Right next to the beach and an easy walk to a few restaurants. Water taxi was easy to take to different islands and the main town. This is the best spot if you want a sand beach and calm water that is easy for kids to swim in.

Everything was perfect about this property. Location was private with some beach goers that we shared our days with. The house was very spacious, beds comfortable, and outdoor space perfect. It was a short walk to fun eateries, or a 5 minute boat ride to town The staff was awesome, Armodio went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant. I would definitely recommend this property for anyone visiting Boca.

wonderful trip
Our overall stay was wonderful due to the staff at Casa Azul. I rented the property to celebrate my 60th and my niece's 25 birthday. Armodio took care of us more than we could have expected, he arranged all of our local transport and our house staff was wonderful! We knew the house was on a public beach, which was not a positive, but the whole set up worked very well. Peter and Andrea were very accessible.

Bocas - the location, the people and the home
I wish I could write two reviews for this home and our stay in Bocas - one for the people and location and one for the home. Bocas, the place and the people are worth the adventure but the home is not. The people - from Armodio and the ladies who were with us daily cooking, shopping and cleaning for us to our water taxi drivers, the locals we shared the beach with and even the hosts Peter and Andrea - all were truly amazing! Friendly, kind, funny and beyond helpful. These folks made our stay so memorable! The location - oh my! The pictures do not do this postcard beach, palm trees and amazing weather justice. From deck to beach to ocean in 5 easy steps! We loved walking to Bibis for lunch and drinks! The home is a different story. It is truly showing its tropical age. The pictures of this home are easily a decade old - the images and the home we stayed in were quite different. We know that a tropical climate can be hard on homes (we have stayed in our share) but facets didn't work properly, the floors in a few of the bathrooms felt ready to fall through, the cushions on chairs and benches are very old and there is no place to gather a large group except around the dinning table. Outside is beautiful but the bugs (no big deal with enough bug off) made evenings more comfortable inside but indoor seating made this a challenge. The kitchen was so poorly stocked with cooking utensils and pots/pan that it was hard for us to cook even a few of our own meals. I really wish I was able to write a better review but I thought other would appreciate the honesty.

Great introduction to Bocas del Toro
This is a very nice house for a large group, with 6 superb en suite adult rooms and very liveable group spaces to hang out both inside the house and on the deck. Amodio lives next door, was helpful and provided some buffer from the only negative of the property, the beach in front of the house. As noted by other reviews, the house is on a public beach, which means people can set up for the day within a couple of feet from the front deck. Good news is its mostly locals, not tourists which adds charm and fun, but on the weekend its pretty busy so consider your trips to Zapatillo or one of the other island beaches for the weekend. Importantly, your stuff is secure in the house. Carenero is a great little island, about a 2.5 km walk around takes you through beach and jungle with sloths and parrots on one side, and the small local community on the other with a couple restaurants (recommend the Cosmic Crab). We were there six nites and had no trouble hooking up with water taxis to visit the archipelago or Bocas town. Had a wonderful dinner cooked in one evening for us. In sum, good enough to already be planning for a second visit.

Family vacation paradise
I stayed at the house for nearly a week with my family after getting married in Panama City. After a week of the hustle and bustle of the city my wife and I looked forward to having to having some quality time with our families after getting married. Ely the caretaker arranged transportation from the airport in bocas. She ensured we had a meal cooked upon arrival. We had hired two girls to cook and clean, and the food was great. The care taker Armodio was also very attentive to ensuring we had any supplies we needed as well as providing us with coconuts. Armodio truly helped us feel comfortable and was attentive to sharing information about the property and the island. He also made sure things were secure when we left the property. A couples things worth noting is that the property is about a two minute boat ride from the center of town. We did not mind it since we came to connect as a family. The beds were comfortable, with ac in each room. And the property looks better in person Our group consisted of people ages 22 to 80 and the front porch allowed us to be comfortable reconnect and truly make memories that I will always cherish. There are a few things to be aware of the mosquitos can be bad so make sure you take plenty of big spray, and even recommended brining the bug candles. And lastly if you are used to taking 30 minutes showers everyday this may not be the place to be. Water conservation is a must. Overall we would stay on the property again and my 80 year old grandmother is talking about coming back next year.

Great for Surf Trips - Larger Groups
We had a great time at Vista Azul! It is definitely the nicest accommodations on Isla Caranero and in Bocas from what we saw. There are some small things in the house that could use fixes, but anything we needed to use(such as appliances) were promptly fixed or replaced. We went with a group of 10 for a surf trip. As stated in previous reviews, you are on a public beach so there are plenty of people on any given day and more on weekends. Most will sit on the front stairs and a couple of people daily will walk up the stairs and almost inside assuming it's a hostel. "Lost and Found Items" were left on the front deck by police a couple of times for beachgoers to retrieve later. The property should really have any kind of signage to signify its private property. For this reason, we always locked up when leaving and hid valuables inside the house as we were warned several times during our trip by locals or police of theft in the local vicinity as we had photographers with us and their equipment. It was difficult to gauge from pictures the actual size of the bed and rooms, but the house could definitely sleep 14 comfortably. The beds were good, and each room has a beautiful view and bathroom. As mentioned previously they are on a rain catch system so expect limited showers as it hadn't rained properly prior to our arrival. The property owners were very helpful leading up to the trip with what to expect in Isla Caranero as well in Bocas. Armodio, who was our onsite assistance was incredibly helpful at all times, and on night one helped show us where all the lights were as we sat inside with a pitch black patio, he was always very helpful and accommodating. We frequented Coquitos, Leaf Eaters and Bibi's, and were on the main island for surf at Paunch and Bluff most days. Just off the dock are great coffee shop and breakfast options. We did run into some trouble halfway through the trip with water taxi's charging more if we said we were going to "Vista Azul", so we usually ended up requesting a ride to Bibi's and walking the rest of the way. All in all it was a great trip, and with such a large group we had ample space which is hard to come by. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful house in a beautiful spot
This is a beautiful and incredibly spacious house that brings the outdoors in. The main room has soaring ceiling and windows, balconies across both levels expansively open the home to the beach. The house is on the back side of Caranero, with a magnificent view out to the ocean. Communication with the owner was easy, thank you for being so responsive and accommodating! Pickup and dropoff, as well as initial grocery shopping were made available, and much appreciated. There is a pier immediately nearby for water taxi access, and Blackrock surf spot right in front. The beach does get people / locals coming for the day, it is not isolated, this is part of the fun. We rented surfboards and SUPs from MonoLoco and kept them at the house to use right out front, and went diving with Panama Dive School based on Caranero. Convenient to everything by boat, and walking distance to 2 nearby restaurants. Really enjoyed our stay!

Week in Bocas
Very nice property in a very nice location. It is a public beach, but that was no problem. Armodio was an excellent problem solver and provided security when we were gone. His wife makes great bread! Our group of 8 couples all had king suites with baths. Our group has travelled the Caribbean and Costa Rica and Bocas was at the top of the list in terms of beaches, activities and food options. We would highly recommend Bocas and this property. The only issue was the absence of a grill to cook our food. Overall a great trip.

Beautiful home, with very accommodating owners.
The house & beach are beautiful, and the flexibility that was given to help with check in and out was awesome, the overall experience was good. The kitchen could have been a little better equipped, the oven takes for ever, and there were a few uncomfortable moments with the caretaker. I just think when you wake up in the morning and go to the kitchen, you should see someone from your own party first, and not a stranger. The beach is absolutely beautiful, but there is no privacy. I think a fence or something would help as people would camp out on decks, and walk right in the door looking for a drink, on weekends it is like Daytona beach it is so busy. All in all it was a great stay and the owners and Elly were very accommodating.

Great for multiple couples
We were a part of 5 couples and this house worked out great for us. Bedrooms with en suite baths are on the each side of the house and then central living area. Upper and lower decks to catch a breeze off the ocean. Kitchen with gas stove and workable oven but there is no grill. We had several meals there including awesome spiny lobster which were provided by Armodio who lives next door. I cannot say enough good things about Armodio. He will help arrange any tour or water taxi and, at a small cost, brought us ice and fresh water whenever we needed. Plus, he was very attentive about security and would keep an eye on the place when locals were about or when we were gone on excursions. Not that we didn't feel very safe, but it was nice to know he had our backs. As stated in other reviews, locals will use the beach. Most crowded on weekends so you can plan accordingly. We went to Red Frog Beach on a Saturday for that reason. But there are very few people selling things so don't worry about being hassled. Sand fleas are an issue. We did bring plenty of deterrent and avoided laying on the sand which did help. There is some snorkeling at the beach--especially to the left as looking out at the ocean. Not spectacular but still enjoyable. Also really fun to watch the surfers every day. There is a path that goes all the way around the island and will get you to a small grocery store. Bibi's restaurant is just a short walk away with good food--should order the ceviche and octopus! You should be aware that you do have to be very water conscience. We took very quick showers and would flush only when truly needed. Having said that we did have enough water to do a few small loads of laundry at the end of the week. All in all a great week. Good location and beautiful beach front property.

Amazing Stay
Our group of 10 had an amazing time at the Vista Azul Lodge, which was the first trip to Bocas for all of us. The home is incredibly unique and situated in a fantastic location, the service we received from the owner and staff was 5 star across the board, and Bocas was a fantastic destination. I could go on and on about the entire experience, but to get to the point. If you're considering staying here, just book it.

Beautiful Home
Vista Azul exceeded our expectations. I have been to Bocas about 12 times and this is my favorite place so far, the house is amazing and the beach, just steps from the front door, is calm, clear and great for lounging and swimming. There are restaurants a short walk away, a store about a 15 min walk away, and Bocas town is a short 5 min boat ride away. If a boat is not at the dock and you don't want to wait to call one you can walk 10 minutes to the Aqua Lounge and there is always a boat there. I would bring Deet as some members of our group were annoyed by the sand flies, locally known as chitras. Other reviews are accurate that the beach is not private and because it is such a beautiful beach people come during the day but you will have the beach to yourself in the morning and evening. If you want a more secluded experience the trade off is that you will be 20-40 minutes away from restaurants, stores, and town. The man that watches the house, Armadio, is a tremendous resource and will build a fire on the beach, call a water taxi, help arrange for a cook - anything you need.

Amazing location right on the beach!
This house is “one of those” that is even better in person than it appears in the photos. The bedrooms are expansive with great private baths and the view to the jungle makes the house open up even more. The beach on which the house is located is a “public beach” as other reviewers mentioned. That didn’t negatively affect us, and we actually enjoyed speaking with quite a few locals. The only issue is when they used the deck or would come up onto the deck, but it should be noted they think the house is a bar or restaurant-asking for agua or cerveza or basura or banos. Yes, there are “private property” signs, but most were innocent mistakes and we would point them down the beach. The snorkeling is pretty average in front of the house, a bit harrowing with boat traffic, but we brought an orange buoy along which helped the taxi drivers locate us (we left at the house for others use). We also took a snorkel tour which is worth the time and money. The location on the beach is prime real estate and we gave out the rental information to many other tourists interested. Agree with other reviewers that the kitchen/dining could use additional pots, pans, cookie sheets, etc and better lighting but when traveling we’ve learned to improvise. We caught fish two days with a fishing captain set up thru Armodio and prepared some amazing dishes in that kitchen. I can’t say enough about Armodio and his family, he truly made our vacation memorable (and his children too!) Armodio’s wife even baked us homemade bread a few days! It should be said, we had absolutely no water issues, and we had 8 occupants showering along with dishes, flushing, etc. However, one negative comment outside the control of the owners, there is a bar on the island that starts to play thumping music anywhere from midnight through the early morning?? With the screens on the upper windows, it was hard to drown out that music. Yes, there are sand flies, but there aren’t many locations left in central America that are sand fly free-Bring your repellent! Highly recommend this beach house!

Great Location but disappointing stay
We landed and Peter the owner spotted our group as I think he was on his way out and told us there was an issue of limited water at the house and on the Island. Ely would explain, so I talked with her while waiting for our luggage . I was told we only had 450 gallons for water left for our 4 days and 10 of us. She recommended we not wash clothes,keep showers very short and not to do too many dishes. We planned to cook as we had people with dietary restrictions. Everyday we were worried about how much water we had. The morning of our departure we had run out, only 2 people had showered ,toilet could not be flushed and used drinking water to brush our teeth. They did pay for our laundry to be done in town but had to pay for water taxis back and forth. They supplied us with paper plates,cups and spoons,but when we ran out we had to pay of them. Armodio was great about getting groceries ,our laundry and cutting fresh coconut for us.... thank you very much. The house has outstanding views and great access to clear waters for snorkeling but as you are close to the pier there are lots for water taxis coming and going . You really have to watch out. We were there over a weekend and that was mistake. There were tourists and locals walking by and chilling on the beach during the day, it got very crowded and noisy with tons of trash were left behind on the beach. Sunday morning 6am we had a water taxis bringing 6 drunk individuals with blaring music. They were on the beach and in the water for about an hour. As the house has small windows thru out with only screens ,the noise was an issue. People get very close to the house so privacy was also an issue especially if you wanted to sit out on the front deck. The kitchen cabinets are in bad condition ,hard to open, some are broken and skillets, pot and pans are in need of replacement. Sand flies are a real problem. Overall not what we had expected.
