Fantastic, beautiful, serene and well thought out. The attention to detail is phenomenonal. The staff are friendly, professional and available around the clock for anything you need or didn't know you needed. The food was fantastic with menu options aplenty. I highly recommend the private boat/captain rental (and captain Magnol (nickname Marsh) in particular) which provides a highly flexible way to explore the local islands, beaches, and wildlife including dolphins, red frogs, sloths, monkeys and abundant snorkeling options to mention a few. Our stay was thoroughly enjoyable and we hope to return soon!

First time in Bocas del Toro, first time at a Nayara. Stayed five nights during Christmas 2024.

Simply exceptional.

We stayed in the most luxurious treehouse surrounded by lush gardens and exotic birds who visited daily. The accommodations were perfect.

The staff is top of the line, courteous, and prompt.

The meals were 10/10 for every meal which is a rarity.

The excursions were amazing: kayaking, snorkeling, swimming, hiking, and beach trips. There is so much to see and do.

We will definitely return and are so excited for the new spa / treehouse when it is completed.

Room tip: Stay in a treehouse. The climb is worth it.

Beautiful boutique hotel with only 20 villas. Attentive service, excellent food and good selection of wines and cocktails. Good selection of activities - either included or reasonably priced.

For the price, villas are on the smallish side. And the older villas are a bit behind on maintenance.

Overall, however, would recommend.

Room tip: Try avoid rooms 1-7 (which are actually a bit more expensive than the newer 8-16)

We stayed in OWB villa 15, one of the villas with a water viewing window in the floor, 12/11-12/15. Nayara staff made everything easy with transport to and from the airport. Staff at the resort were amazing. Food and beverage were delicious. There were so many options for breakfast, lunch, and snacking. The Elephant House restaurant had a new menu every night. Room service available 24 hours.

The room was romantic. The ocean floor window had a blue light in the water that made the whole room glow with blue after dark.

Room tip: If you have an option pick villa 16. It is on the end.

My girlfriend and I spent 4 nights at this incredible resort and can’t recommend it enough. The overwater bungalow was so luxurious and peaceful. The food was amazing, with room service available anytime we had the slightest whim. The staff was friendly and professional. And the scenery could. It be more picturesque and gorgeous. An absolute dream vacation 🤩

Our stay at Nayara Bocas del Toro was a dream come true! Even in some rain, the resort offered an an oasis of luxury and comfort. The serene ambiance and the private over the water accomodations and top-tier service more than compensated. The food was simply divine, showcasing local ingredients with incredible flavor combinations, perfectly complemented with its outstanding wine and crafted cocktails. Nayara is the definition of eco-luxury.

Room tip: Direct flight from Air Panama from Panama City ( quick 50 min flight) then a 20 minute ferry ride to the hotel (ferry transfer is included)
