La Jungla Experience

The apartment is spacious and stocked with everything you could need, plus more. It's a few kilometers from the city center, but a taxi is easy to hail and costs one dollar per person. Greg was very friendly and helpful with suggestions for things to do around Boquete. We highly recommend staying here.

The kitchen is easily the best I've seen in a hostel, and there's plenty of comfortable space inside and out to hang out. Everything was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the atmosphere felt like home, with both the guests and owners, Greg and Mamie. They were around whenever we had questions. After hiking, the free laundry was a big plus, and they lent us headlamps, gloves, and hats for the Barú night hike. The two dogs are friendly and the cat is adorable. I'd come back for sure.

It feels more like a home than a hostel, thanks to how kind Grey and Mamie were to us. The place is a little way from town, but worth it, and a taxi into town is only $0.60. There's a yoga class, tours, food you can buy cheaply, and free breakfast every day. Best place I've stayed in Panama!

The house is huge and private, with room for at least four or five couples to stay comfortably at a great price. Its backyard feels like something from a very rich person's home, but you can use everything without feeling awkward. The fridge is stocked with what you need, at fair prices no higher than a minimart. It's centrally located but away from downtown, so traffic is easy to deal with. Greg is a rare person I'm glad I got to meet. He's kind and incredibly helpful, with perfect English from Minnesota. Best host I've had in Panama. I'm already planning to return to Boquete next year and stay as long as I can.
