We loved the beautiful, hand-made design of the lodge and its peaceful and quiet atmosphere. The facilities like the swimming pool, dock, and various activities were all incredible. The food, cooked by the mother of the family, was delicious and varied, with great wine and cocktails. The location on an island was perfect for enjoying nature and the stunning sea views. The family hosted us generously and took care of everything. It's a perfect place to disconnect and relax.

Felt safe walking at night, nothing too much trouble.

Nothing not to love.

The property was stunningly beautiful, with a magical dock and well-designed rooms. the bathroom was nicely styled and clean. the food at the restaurant was quite good, and there were options for water activities like canoeing and snorkeling.

There were some drawbacks to consider. the location of the property was quite isolated, making it expensive to travel to the main island and other islands.

Beautiful setting with stunning views, delicious food with locally sourced ingredients, and attentive hosts. Limited activities, but perfect for a short, relaxing stay.

Stunning location, eco-friendly amenities, delicious homemade meals, comfortable beds, warm and welcoming hosts.

Nothing all excellent.

Beautifully designed cabins with attention to detail. Fresh, locally sourced food prepared with innovation. Incredible snorkeling and kayaking in mangroves. Friendly and thoughtful hosts. Small and intimate, perfect for relaxation.

As longer term business travelers, we enjoyed the beautifully furnished bungalows and the attention to detail in all areas. The breathtaking restaurant and views were a highlight. The host family was open-minded, friendly, and dedicated to ensuring our stay was exceptional. The fresh, delicious food, including homemade mango marmalade, was a delight. The availability of snorkeling gear, stand-up paddleboards, and canoes right outside our bungalow made for convenient and enjoyable activities. The personal boat tours and hiking on the property were worth every minute. We hope to return and relax on this private island paradise.

We felt very welcomed and had no complaints whatsoever.

Located in a secluded area surrounded by the jungle, the hotel offers a fantastic getaway. the rooms are very nice, and the hotel provides good snorkeling and paddling opportunities. You can enjoy the tranquility of the place and relax by the small pool or at the seating area on the sea.

The service fell short of expectations. the staff seemed reluctant and we didn't feel very welcome.

Our stay at Finca Vela was worth every penny! The room was absolutely stunning, with meticulous attention to detail. The location on Isla Pastores provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle, and the staff made us feel like family.

Breakfast selection could be improved with more snack options throughout the day.

We had an incredible stay at a hidden gem surrounded by Panama's beautiful nature. The hotel's location, right on the water facing out to the sea, provided breathtaking views. The cleanliness of the rooms and common areas was impeccable, making us feel comfortable and relaxed. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable, offering delicious meals and providing excellent service. The hotel facilities, including snorkeling gear, canoes, stand-up paddle boards, and a pool.

Nothings.

For the price we paid, we got exceptional value. The room was top-notch, with breathtaking views and stylish decor. The location was a peaceful slice of paradise, away from the craziness of other islands. The staff treated us like family, making us feel welcome and relaxed throughout our stay.

Hotel breakfast could be improved with a larger portion size.

The value for the money was fantastic and the room exceeded our expectations. The location was peaceful and beautiful, surrounded by nature. The staff treated us like family, making our stay warm and welcoming.

The only thing that could make the breakfast better was having a wider variety of options.

Beautiful property, clean rooms, and well-styled bathrooms. the daily fresh prepped food was delicious, with ingredients from their own garden. the dock offered great snorkeling opportunities.

Bugs were a major issue, especially sand flies, and there should have been mosquito nets and measures taken to treat stagnant bodies of water on the property. the location was quite isolated, making it expensive to travel to the main island and other islands.

Beautiful property, well-designed cabins, delicious food, intimate atmosphere, helpful staff. Snorkeling and activities available. Loved the tour of the property and trying different fruits. Highly recommended over other options.

The food was always delicious and the portions were just right. The desserts were a highlight every night. The lodge is isolated, providing a quiet and relaxing atmosphere. A perfect place to enjoy nature and have a peaceful vacation. We highly recommend staying here for a few days.
