TripAdvisor Reviews

star rating  My boyfriend and I stayed at Urraca Private Island Eco Resort for 4 nights in December 2020. And while from pictures, I had high expectations, the visit surpassed them.... read more After the stress that 2020 has brought, it was so restorative to swim in clear water, take naps in hammocks, kayak around the island, and laugh over wine with Francine. The food was delicious, and so obviously cooked with love. And then the monkeys! They were so fascinating to watch and visit with each day. As a traveler, I tend to want to visit new places, but Urraca is definitely a place I will return to again.

star rating  Staying at Urraca is definitely one of the best decisions my boyfriend and I made on our trip to Bocas. I highly recommend staying a few nights rather than just... read more the tour. During our 2 night stay we were able to experience this beautiful island and everything it has to offer from the amazing mangroves, to the playful monkeys. I can not put into words amazing our experience with Francine and the monkeys was. Not only did we get to hang out and take pictures with the monkeys, we got to enjoy the natural beauty the resort has to offer. We spent a lot of time in the multiple hammocks that are set up throughout the resort as well as snorkeling around the mangroves. Hanging out and watching the monkeys was hands down one of the unbelievable things we have done. They have so much character and are so fascinating to watch and engage with. However the runner up best part of our stay here was the delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner cooked and served by Francine and her amazing staff. Francine's cooking is as beautiful in flavor as it is in presentation. We were blown away after every meal. If she is offering lobster you must say yes or else you will be passing up a dining experience you will never forget. Also if you like Bloody Marys ask Francine to make one for you and you wont regret... Staying at Urraca is definitely one of the best decisions my boyfriend and I made on our trip to Bocas.

star rating  This is a truly unique experience. It's majestic, but also earthy. This is truly an eco resort. Built into mangroves and designed to help rehabilitate and save abandoned monkeys. ... read more Let's start with the room accommodations. No, there is not air conditioning, but you adjust fast. Each room has privacy and a beautiful view. The rooms are cleaned daily and you get daily free roaming monkey time! The bathrooms are clean and there is nice hot water for showers. The food is amazing. I can't describe how fresh the food is and welcoming the cooks and staff are. We brought a group of 16 friends, many of which had not met before, to spend a well together here and it's been amazing. Each morning you can go for a glassy swim around the island or paddle or kayak. There is a perfect structure to welcome sea birds for your viewing right off the island as well. Activities that are a must: 1. Bat caves: this is a real farm, a great family, such a unique ride into the mangroves and a hike that shouldn't be missed. All trails would rate medium. 2. Gary's chocolate farm: he's from LA and a bit grumpy with kids, but totally worth the visit. He's doing great work here for the local tribe and supporting that is awesome. 3. Red Frog Beach is a very nice reprieve for a day with a pool and drinks on... This is a truly unique experience. It's majestic, but also earthy. This is truly an eco resort.
