The Sea Monkey Overwater Bungalows and Restaurant Bocas del Toro

Friendly staff, awesome location, and yummy breakfast. We took our adult children in June and the room was comfortable for four. We stayed in #4 and would definitely recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at the sea monkey! Great location and wonderful staff! Derian was a wonderful guide and took us on such wonderful adventures for surfing and fishing! We had a blast eating fish and cruising all around! Will recommend the sea monkey and derian’s services to any friend!

Always wanted to stay at an over-the-water place. It was great. Bungalow is roomy, with full bathroom. I appreciated the ability to open the doors and let the outdoors in, but close them and turn on the air conditioning (bungalows 3 and 4) on hot late afternoons. Stacy was always responsive to requests or questions. Breakfast is delivered daily at the time of your choice, with 4 delicious choices. The village has many more residents than tourists, so that makes it more interesting. Several good restaurants within walking distance, and the wait staffs speak English.

We had such a great experience at The Sea Monkey. From the warm welcome upon arrival to the beautiful views, clean room, amazing hospitality! Thank you to the ladies of The Sea Monkey! We will certainly be back.

Simple clean rooms with beautiful view. Friendly staff. Not much on the island so you have to take a boat to go anywhere except they deliver delicious breakfast. Not many bugs. Dogs and roosters nearby would not shut up and were so annoying. Also many people walking past on the dock which shook the whole room.

Just finished up with my stay here and it was a wonderful experience. Stacy was extremely responsive and helped us with arranging our water taxi. We were looking for a place that really captured the culture in Bocas, so if you’re looking for an immersive experience, this is the place to do it. The view was incredible and made us feel like we had our own slice of the island to ourselves. The room was clean, the staff was extremely helpful in assisting us plan our excursions and we noticed some new bungalows going up that look super nice. We will definitely stay here again!!

The over the water bungalow was spacious and clean and the bed was very comfortable. The views were spectacular and we enjoyed swimming off the deck; there was some trash along the shore so we showered promptly after swimming. The breakfast was delivered to our door and all the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The town is small but that is what we were looking for.

We went as a couple for a unique experience at The Sea Monkey. We booked 1 of the Bungalows over seas and it was everything and more we expected. Very nice bungalow, spacious and clean with a million dollar view over seas. The deck is really big so you enjoy the outdoor area to the maximum! We saw dolphins passing by from our deck and saw thunder and lightning as if it was included in the price! :)) The sea wasn't bright blue as we expected but this has probably to do with the weather in stead of the venue or location. Not too much to do in Isla Bastimentos but great place to chill and explore the beautiful nature. ||Keith and Franny welcomed us as true hosts, showing us around and were always available. Try the beerfish if you have dinner there. ||Thanks again for the nice welcome!
