Top-Ranked Bocas del Toro Hotel on Trip Advisor!

Popa Paradise has reached the top spot on www.tripadvisor.com Trip Advisor now ranks Popa Paradise Beach Resort as the #1 of the Panama hotels and #1 Bocas del Toro Hotel.

With the motto: Get the Truth. Then Go., Trip Adviser uses a system of guest reviews to rank hotels. Currently Popa Paradise has had 32 reviews written about them with, 31 of them being rated Excellent and 1 receiving a Very Good rating. We have a perfect score of 100% recommended.

Thanks to our loyal guests who have posted positive reviews. We have no control over what people post, but work hard to make sure everyone here has a positive experience. We have been lucky that people have taken the time to write about us.

We also would not have one single positive review if it weren't for our excellent staff who take pride in the work they do. Everyone from the housemaid who takes the extra time to put her special touch into a room to the landscaper who keeps the grounds looking fresh and beautiful. They all are read Spanish translations of the reviews and it excites them when we receive a new one. Thanks again to all of our past guests and we look forward to hosting you out there who have found us on Trip Advisor.

Meet the Team: Employee of the Month - September

At Popa Paradise Beach Resort, we encourage our employees to go above and beyond their duties and responsibilities, especially in their interactions with guests. We also like to reward those who do just that and management and fellow employees encourage and make it know when they see someone going above and beyond. In the month of September, Marciono (Rocky) Thomas earned the status of Employee of the Month.

Rocky came to us from Bocas Town, where he lives with his wife and young son (who Rocky helps with his English homework, with words and phrases he learns here). Rocky earned his nicknmae while employed as a construction laborer helping build Bocas Paradise Hotel, our sister property in Bocas Town, and one of the best of the Bocas del Toro hotels.

Rocky now contributes to the overall landscaping and maintenance of our property. With 25 acres to tend to, Rocky always seems to have something to do. Rocky was a true team player this month and was recognized by all as being an integral part of the team. Congratulations Rocky, September's Employee of the Month!
