Sleep Above the Caribbean: What Makes Our Overwater Boutique Hotel in Bocas Unique?
Wake up to the ocean breeze, the gentle sound of waves, and panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea. At Divers Paradise Boutique Hotel, we offer one of the most unique oceanfront stays in Bocas del Toro, Panama.
While our rooms are not built on traditional overwater stilts like bungalows, they deliver a similar experience perched above the water, right on the edge of the Caribbean in vibrant Isla Colón.
Thoughtfully Designed for Relaxation
Our 24 boutique-style rooms are created for comfort and tranquility. Each has a private balcony with either Caribbean Sea views or vistas of the colorful streets of Bocas Town. Whether you are enjoying your morning coffee or relaxing after a day of island exploration, your room keeps you connected to the charm of Isla Colón.
All rooms include:
- Air conditioning and ceiling fans
- Flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi
- Queen-size or twin beds
- Deluxe toiletries and a rain shower
- Ocean-inspired décor
After a day of adventure, return to your air-conditioned space or step onto your balcony to breathe in the ocean air and unwind.
A Boutique Hotel for Ocean and Dive Lovers
Our story began with a passion for diving, and that love for the sea is reflected throughout our design — from oxygen-tank lamps to a reception desk shaped like a snorkel mask.
At our on-site Bocas Dive Center, you can enjoy:
- Certification courses and refresher dives
- Recreational and night diving experiences
Guests have direct access to some of Bocas’ most iconic dive spots, including a sunken boat, the famous Mayday airplane wreck, and the breathtaking Coral Heart just in front of the hotel. Whether you are a seasoned diver or trying it for the first time, our team offers expert guidance and personalized service.
And even if diving isn’t on your list, being surrounded by the Caribbean’s turquoise waters, colorful marine life, and soothing waves creates a truly immersive ocean experience.
Water Activities at Your Fingertips
Adventure is right outside your door with complimentary equipment for:
- Paddleboarding (SUP)
