General Information
Popa Paradise is the most exclusive of the Panama hotels because of it's location in the outer archipelago, making it one of the most luxurious of the Bocas del Toro hotels. Popa Paradise Beach Resort is located on the northeastern tip of Isla Popa in the Bocas Islands archipelago. Our exquisite location, fronted by a white-sand beach and crystal-clear waters, backed by lush, tropical rainforest, accommodates various styles of accommodations offering high end amenities. This unique setting enhances your experience of the immense beauty of the Caribbean coast of Panama like no other.
Our accommodations range from ten individual casitas, with satellite television, air-conditioning, and private balconies to a group of five attached cottages, with simple fresh decorations and private bathrooms, perfect for small groups or moderate budget travelers. For the high end traveler, we offer a two-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse, with a full-service kitchen, wrap-around balcony, and living-room and dining area. On the first floor are two individual executive suites with kitchenettes. If it weren’t for the sound of the waves lapping onto the beach, you may feel right at home.
If the enchantment of island life is not enough, we offer a range of activities for our guests from massage and spa services to kayaks for exploring the deserted beaches that neighbor our property, to snorkel gear for discovering the reefs that lie just off our shore. We also offer unique private boat tours to places like the Zapatillas Cays and Dolphin Bay, as well as many other “secret” Bocas del Toro attractions.
