“A magical place to visit”
12 Jan 2025
Such a wonderful piece of paradise. We loved staying here, welcoming and friendly, wonderful food and great location. We enjoyed a wildlife walk in the surrounding jungle, seeing lots including a couple of sloths. We also went kayaking and saw coral and starfish….but the stand out activity was a sunset boat trip to see the dolphins, something that will stay with us for a long time

“Heaven on earth”

Dolphin bay hideaway is like heaven on the earth The location is really relaxing and immerse in the nature Brian is super and making you comfortable at the best The staff helping Brian is perfect; food is great with local organic fresh ingredients To go to Bocas, this location is the best

“An honour to be received and to learn more about the natural preserve here. If you want to party stay in Bocas as it’s a”

Amy and Brian make joint efforts to assure that each person has both an educational and fun experience. Hidden away amongst the mangroves you will find a quiet and abundant experience. There are tours of the jungle and adjacent islands available. Swimming and stand- up-paddle is safe and you may be rewarded by dolphin and animal sightings (dolphin presence is not always guaranteed). Kayaks available ( all not additional charge). Jungle walk is a must to learn what Brian and Amy are doing here to preserve natural abundance in wildlife and flora growth. Books to glean. Bio-luminescence experienced during lunar waning (darker). Food is offered on half or full board and half board discounts your boat trip return. Thanks and we hope to be back.

“Was this a dream?”

Dolphin Bay Hideaway is the perfect name for this hidden gem. If you’re seeking an escape on a remote island in Bocas del Toro, nestled in the middle of a lush mangrove forest with breathtaking views of the bay, look no further. From the deck, you’ll spot dolphins jumping during every meal. Grab a kayak at sunrise or sunset for a closer look – it’s truly magical. The service provided by Brian, JA, and Potin was exceptional. Their dedication and care to ensure every guest’s needs are met is unparalleled. Brian’s deep knowledge and care for the local flora and fauna enriched the experience, and they were always attentive, creating a homey yet adventurous atmosphere. The food was balanced, fresh, and delicious, making every meal as enjoyable as the company. This is a place that truly takes you away from it all – but be warned, if you’re looking for a sanitized resort experience or the convenience of a shopping mall, this is not the place for you. Anyone who cannot appreciate the beauty and serenity of this place does not deserve it. I will absolutely return. This is a stay I will never forget.

“Unique”

The location is amazing . You can kayak with the dolphins every time you like directly from the hideaway . A unique place and the host Brian makes this accommodation even more unique !

“A piece of heaven in Bocas”
16 Aug 2024
Dolphin Bay Hideaway is a piece of heaven on earth! It’s the perfect place if you’re looking to connect with nature and enjoy calmness and the beauty of Dolphin Bay. Brian and his team have been exceptional providing everything we needed and beyond. We enjoyed our hiking across the area looking for sloths, discovering plants, frogs and birds, as well as our snorkeling and kayaking around the bay. We saw dolphins every single day we were there, watching them jumping and be playful from the main deck. Looking forward to coming back!

“A tropical garden of Eden”
12 Aug 2024
The highlight of our trip to Panamá. The location is simply spectacular: set in a gorgeous, colorful garden, surrounded by jungle and with beautiful views of the bay from the rooms and upstairs dining area. The waters were super calm, clear (snorkeling was excellent) and - best of all - teeming with dolphins. The rooms are spotlessly clean and have all the amenities you could possibly need. Staff is super friendly. Meals are copious and delicious. The owner, Brian, is the nicest of guys and went out of his way to make our stay as comfortable as he possibly could. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the local fauna and flora: a true community minded ecologist and a lover of good music and excellent cocktail maker to boot. Thanks again for a truly memorable couple of days Brian!

“Like backpacking, but for grown-ups - unique & highly recommendef”
06 Aug 2024
Outstanding experience in a very familial setting; there are rooms for only up to 11 guests and Brian and his staff do an extraordinary job in making this a special stay. Besides Brian & staff the key is the shared veranda.

“Superb”
02 Aug 2024
Amy and Brian are wonderful hosts. We couldn't have started our vacation any better than at their hideaway! Our room was spacious and decorated with great attention to detail and Caribbean flair (as was the rest of the Hideaway). Amy's cooking was outstanding and there were no other tourists on the snorkeling trip except us (and Brian, our host). Not to mention the wildlife around the Hideaway. If you want to spend your vacation away from mass tourism, have a wonderful time by the sea and next to a huge jungle garden, eat good food and value super hosts, this is the right place.

“Everything you could wish for and more!”
15 Jun 2024
It's difficult to put in to words just how much we enjoyed our extraordinary and very special stay here, however, it might explain our experience if I say that we originally stayed in the bungalow, which is set apart from the main accommodation, for 4 nights and then changed our already complicated travel plans so we could come back for another 3 nights at the end of our holiday. Brian, Amy and AJ (who came to expertly cook for us) couldn't have been kinder or more helpful - patiently helping us with travel plans and day to day organisation for a family of 5. Highlights were the secret snorkeling spots, a fantastic Easter meal, phosphorescent water at night, a forest walk with sloths and a trip to Zapatilla island with leaping dolphins accompanying us home.
