Reviews of Kevin Kondos

We stayed in a fairly modern two-bedroom apartment, which had a small kitchen where we were able to cook breakfast. The apartment itself was a good size — the bedrooms and bathroom were spacious enough, and there was a basic living area with a table for meals. It would have been helpful to have access to running water outside to rinse off sand after the beach, or at least a broom in the apartment to help manage it. We did come across a few bugs during our stay — not unexpected on an island — but be warned about sandflies. Despite the issues, I would consider staying here again if a proper clean was done before check-in.

Unfortunately, cleanliness was an issue. It didn’t feel like the apartment had been properly cleaned before our arrival. The floors and kitchen surfaces were dusty, and we had to wash the plates, pots, and pans before using them. The shower room had quite a bit of mould and really needed a deep clean with bleach. We even had to clean the toilet before using it

It was very clean, great view, close to a lot with a water taxi or walk. Though bring or bug spring!! Staff was great.

Need a fan above deck for air movement. The loud music that went on till early hours of the morning, but I one that can sleep through it so it someone is a light sleeper. The shut off of water and electricity from 11:00 to 3:00 ish, every other day? Just ask, should put notices up for people that stay there.

Great location at the beach, big apartment with large sleeping rooms and comfy beds. Great living room and well equipped kitchen. Nice balcony with garden set to sit in with seaview.

Wifi was a bit sketchy and even dropped out for a couple of hours. The shower jet was only warm when it was really weak; making it stronger turned it cold. Lots of sandflies so always have to use spray against those.

Our room was spacious and clean

our location was poor due to a noisy bar that played loud music till around four am. The neighbourhood and the market was very dirty garbage and dog poop. Since the water is in drinkable the business should provide drinking water.

Very poor internet

The property was very clean. Daily freshening up by the staff was appreciated.

The outdoor space was lovely however there wasn’t any shade on the deck. It was so hot we were not able to use it but there was lots of shade in the island itself.

This is on the closest island to Bocas town proper. The kondo is a 5 minute walk from the main party bar in Bocas - The Aqua Lounge. A water taxi back to the main island will cost you $2 each way. Initially I was concerned how hard it would be to get transport, but there are so many taxi boats zooming about that it was never an issue, you just stand on the end of the dock and flag down the next one going past and they are happy to make an extra $2 for going to the same final destination. The room was more like a small apartment, spacious and clean with a complete modern kitchen.

This applies to most places in Bocas but especially to this place, and it's not something they tell you ahead of time on Booking: the water is only turned on for two 2 hour periods per day. Apparently the water is pumped from a fresh water lake on the main island or rain is caught and it hadn't rained for a while. The owner also said the pump from the main island was acting up? I can understand conserving water, but they should tell you ahead of time. Go to the washroom overnight? It's staying in the bowl until morning. Go snorkeling in the afternoon and want to wash the sand off? Not happening. Go dancing at night and want to shower before you go to bed? Nope. A similar thing with the AC. I understand and subscribe to conservation, but I'm on vacation. When I come home after a sweaty day, I want to walk into air conditioning. I'm paying for that. They would enter the unit and turn it off during the day. They would also re-arrange my clothes and personal items. I understand they are trying to be tidy, and nothing was ever missing, but don't touch my stuff. The internet was also very slow. It isn't unuseable, but it is slower on the island then it is in Bocas town. The owner talked about getting Musk's Starlink, who knows if he'll follow through. The owner seems like a decent guy and I could see him making improvements to the dock and other items each day I was there. It's a nice enough place, but you're paying roughly what you would pay at other places that don't have the water/AC/internet concerns.

Wonderful location with beautiful ocean view from the terrase! Very spacious rooms, really nice staff and owner! Highly recommended.

I loved the views and the location

Everything was good

We really loved the apartment, it was good located next to the beach.

Convinient location.

spacious, nice view, daily cleaning, grill available, pleasant staff

a little loud due to water taxi traffic during daytime

Very nice appartment, clean, spacious and just perfect for a stay. The staff especially Adriano is very nice and helpful. I would totally recommend this place. They even have free paddle to use!

nothing

good position, you can easily access to Bocas town (Isla Colon); there is a small beach in front; the stuff cleans everyday apartmant and the area in front and aroud hotel; easy comunication; good value for the money
