Bocas del Toro Region
Playa Tortuga Hotel and Beach Resort
The large, modern Playa Tortuga Hotel and Beach Resort sits on its own private stretch of beach just outside Bocas Town on Colon, the main island of Bocas del Toro off Panama’s western Caribbean coast.
Playa Tortuga is a good choice for parents wanting plenty of distractions for their children and for those who require a certain standard of comfort. Many of the other hotels on Colon are small and simple, situated in the town and lack facilities like a swimming pool or beachfront.
There are 117 en suite rooms with modern facilities and contemporary décor. All of the rooms are spacious and light and have flat-screen TV, mini-bar, free Wi-Fi and a balcony or terrace with sea views.
The restaurant serves a variety of tasty local and international cuisine and there is a terrace bar for drinks and snacks. Other facilities include a large outdoor pool, gym and table tennis court.
The hotel offers canoeing, kayaking, snorkelling and safe swimming in the beautiful clear waters just off the beach.
Facilities
Restaurant, adult and children’s swimming pools, bar, lounge, free Wi-Fi, room service, TV, fridge, laundry service, luggage storage, shuttle service and 24 hour reception.
Optional Activities
Snorkelling, diving, fishing, canoeing, sea kayaking and boat tours.
