세리토 트로피칼(Cerrito Tropical Eco Lodge)

We chose the Cerrito Tropical for our 1-night stay on Taboga. The location is good, a pleasant 5-minute walk from the port. There is a short, steepish hill to walk up but it’s really nothing much. They will also pick you up from the port if requested. We received a warm welcome from Vicki who gave us a rundown on the place as well as patiently answering all our questions about the area. There are decent views from the lodge, but unfortunately not from the rooms, unless you get the 2-bedroom apartment in the front. The view from the rooms was actually disappointing, with the rooms being rather dark due to a scarcity of windows. The room was basic but comfortable, good AC, TV, Wifi, hot water, etc. We also had a small kitchenette which we didn’t really use, but having a fridge was nice. Everything was reasonably clean and well-maintained. There is nothing really very “ecolodge-y” about it, just a basic guesthouse. There was a very inviting small plunge pool out front with lots of chairs, tables, and shade – a great spot to spend a hot afternoon. We ate a couple of pizzas for dinner prepared by Vicki and they were excellent – highly recommended. The breakfast was also very good. Drinks were overpriced, as they are in big hotels, so we just brought our own from down at the local super mini, a few minutes walk away. We were surprised that they were so expensive at the guesthouse, as most small places offer reasonably priced drinks and snacks. Overall we had a very nice stay and would definitely recommend this guesthouse to other travelers.

The room was super clean. The service probly the best in Panama. They pick you up feom the doc and take personal care of you daily. Sincerly, it the only place i will stay on that island from now on. Most of the staff speaks english and all are super accomodating.

Cerrito Tropical Eco Lodge provided a wonderful escape on Isla Taboga. The lodge itself is nestled on a quiet hillside, offering a serene atmosphere with the added bonus of gorgeous ocean views. The plunge pool was a great place to cool off after exploring the island, and the rooms were comfortable and clean. What really made our stay memorable however, was the exceptional service provided by Vicky. Her attention to detail was unmatched. From making excellent pina coladas accompanied by the song, to arranging delicious meals delivered from their beachside restaurant, Calaloo, Vicky ensured our every need was met. She even helped us navigate some local activities, offering helpful suggestions and insider tips. She really knew the are and even that the refrigerator "sings" when closed. While we enjoyed our stay and our host Vicky it should be noted that there really isn't anything obvious that this place is "eco", seems a little misleading for folks that want that experience. Now if "eco" refers to economical then I would say the price was fair for the level of room provided. As such I would recommend this quiet getaway for most.

I like the excellent and caring service service of the staff. I question renting the lawn area to a private party playing loud music 9 - 1am on Sat. night.

Vicky and her team are the best. They make you feel so good This is a natural and quite place. Highly recommend You feel like home Thanks Vicky for all the great details Food, great piña colada awesome pizza

We were very excited to come to this property as per the website pictures, reviews and that the owner, Cynthia, is a Canadian, like us. The pictures on the website are mostly what is factual, however our room was not at all acceptable . It was very dark; bed was uncomfortable; there were only four hooks to hang our clothes - no closet, no coat hangers; no dresser; no vanity or anywhere to put our toiletries; hand marks on the walls; cracked tiles in the shower; no light in the vanity area; toilet was not cleaned properly, and NO MAID service to clean after we checked in and we were there for two overnights. Our room key was left in the office everyday, so there was no excuse for the maid not to clean. The overall cleanliness of the room was average. There are no toiletries supplied in the room except for toilet paper and hand soap at the vanity. The toilet seat was the wrong seat for the toilet that it overlapped the toilet base and was not a proper fit.

We had a great stay in Taboga. The Hotel was very clean an the room had everything we need ( AC, fridge even a coffee machine). Vicky, the hotel manager was very nice an explained everything about the hotel and gave us tipps for hiking tours in taboga.

Friendly staff, good breakfast and nice place. Highly recommended.

This was a last minute stay and we didn't know what to expect, so I was so pleasantly surprised by how wonderful Cerrito Tropical is. Beautiful views, comfortable beds, clean facilities, and with delicious fresh, homemade biscuits for breakfast. You really couldn't ask for more and Taboga is such a magical place. Thanks to everyone at Cerrito Tropical for making our stay happy, relaxing, and memorable!!
