Dolphin Bay Hideaway

We had THE BEST TIME at Dolphin Bay Hideaway! Everything was truly amazing. Communication with Brian before arrival was easy and informative. Meet up in Boca del Toro was smooth, and our boat captain was very accommodating. A pod of dolphins swam alongside our boat on our way in- which was a lovely start to our stay! We stayed at Dolphin Bay Hideaway for 5 nights and loved every minute! JA and Arkey provided breakfast and dinner each day- and their food was fabulous! So yummy and beautifully presented. JA is a chef and an artist with his food creations. Accommodations were wonderful! We had all 4 rooms in the lodge- each one decorated nicely, very comfortable and always clean. The main area of the lodge was perfect for meals and evenings spent playing games and hanging out. The views are beautiful and serene. During the days, we were busy with adventures. One day we visited several snorkel spots in the morning and then hung out at Zapatillo beach for the afternoon. Another day we did the jungle hike with Brian in the morning- not to be missed! We learned so much, planted trees and saw amazing sites including sloths. This was really a highlight for us. Brian’s passion for the jungle and reforestation is contagious and made us appreciate all that we saw and experienced. After the jungle hike, we headed to Red Frog Beach for the afternoon. We also spent a day at Starfish Beach. All 3 beaches we hit were great- fun in the sun was just what we needed and we had yummy lunches at local huts on each beach. Final day we made a trip into Boca in the morning and the afternoon was spent hanging out back at Dolphin Bay Hideaway. Two from our group enjoyed the paddle boards, two had massages (so good!) and two enjoyed lounging and reading at the lodge. Our group enjoyed working out each day in the pavilion (between the dock and the lodge). It is open-aired with views directly to the bay, so an ideal place for the body and soul. The weights, jump ropes, stationary bikes, yoga mats, etc were all used and appreciated. The final thing I will mention is the hospitality extended to us. Brian and his team are beyond superb. They made us feel so welcome and treated us like royalty and family at the same time (if that makes sense). Dolphin Bay Hideaway is really a special place, run by very special people who love what they do, and provided us with special memories that we will long cherish. I researched A LOT of hotels/lodges leading up to this vacation and am beyond thrilled to have picked Dolphin Bay Hideaway. If you are looking to go to Panama on vacation, I’ve done the research for you. Book your stay at Dolphin Bay Hideaway- you won’t regret it. Have fun and please tell Brian and the team “Hello” from the Jordans!

這真的是一家非常獨特的hotel，當你住在那兒一定會體驗到不一樣的感受。owner 布來恩是一位非常負責任的人，他和他的團隊成員們時刻都在想着為他們的客人們提供儘可能好的服務，總之讓人感到很親切。我們在那兒住了兩晚 經歷是終身難忘的，真的希望能夠多住幾天。我們選擇了餐飲和交通都包在裏的plan，感覺直接從Experia裏面選比去了那兒後一樣一樣的付款要好，另外不要錯過由Brain 帶領下的森林徒步，他會為你講解很多森林裏麪的動物 植物的知識，你會學到不少的東西，非常值得！

The most amazing place I ever got the honour to visit and it will be etched in my heart forever. When I first arrived I cried, it was that divine. The grounds, room, service, food and staff were all top notch! They over delivered on all occasions!! Brian, the owner took us out to see dolphins and he’s incredibly knowledgeable with the tropical plants and fauna along with animals. Make sure you bring reading material and that relax mode since the place screams tranquility.
