The most romantic hotel I have ever been to. I felt like I stayed at an Italian villa. My husband and I stayed for a week and enjoyed everything about the hotel. The staff were amazing, the gardens were beautiful and the restaurant was top notch. There is not a lot to do on the island And not a lot of shops to buy necessities so make sure that you bring everything you need with you. If you need a break to get away from it all this is your place.

6/10 Good

The place is nice but is very inconvenient to get to where it’s located. It’s on a steep hill behind all the residential houses. My room was in a separate house next to the main building but with no direct access. I I had to climb up and down steep stairs to get to the main road to walk to my room. Food was really good but kinda pricey.

If you find yourself in Tabogo, this is THE place to stay. Arturo and the staff are so great. The hotel is very charming and the food is excellent. There is a room on the top that has its own private pool but it was occupied. Seems like the best room but ours was great and had breakfast right outside door on terrace.

A real hidden find for visitors to Panama City. Just a 30 minute ferry ride from the city, you will feel as if you are transported to a Greek island. The Villa has magnificent views of the ocean and is charmingly decorated. We lived our large terrace which allowed us to have a private romantic dinner overlooking the ocean.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE

This place is amazing. I can’t stop thinking about it. We were looking for a peaceful place to be for the weekend and I have to say Villa Caprichosa didn’t disappoint us. From Diane the owner, Arturo the property manager to every single person that works there were so nice and attentive to every single detail. We are so happy we found this place and can’t wait to go back. The food, transportation, service, the beautiful rooms, the privacy everything surpassed our expectations. We are certainly going back.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Staff were very courteous. Pickup was prompt and I appreciated the smooth transport of our bags to and from the ferry. The Villa is certainly picturesque and the welcome drink was a nice way to begin our stay. Tasteful decor that was non cluttered. Clean and spacious shower, great big sink in our room. Something that was not addressed was a cigarette smell however which is a challenging odor for me personally to ignore. I figure the prior guest may have smoked in the suite or close enough to leave a trace. I tried my hardest to air the space out to make it more comfortable. The room was nice and cool, not too dry or humid. The restaurant music sounded like AI generated covers of popular western songs, I believe the genre could have been more authentic and suitable to Panama. Dinner was yummy nonetheless and I enjoyed a lovely cappuccino from the kind attendants at breakfast.
Beautiful fireworks from the communal space outside our room.

This was the second time my wife and I stayed at Villa Caprichosa and we absolutely love it. Nadgee immediately recognized us as returning guests when she picked us up at the dock and greeted us with a warm, welcoming smile. I am sure she sees and meets numerous people but that alone got our visit off to a great start. Once we were at the property it was like being in our own private oasis. The first night we stayed in the Champagne Diamond which offers a private terrace overlooking the island and gave amazing views. The rest of our visit was spent in the Hidden Gem suite and I cannot express how much we enjoyed it. From the separate sitting room to the private pool to the private balcony with beach chairs perfect for enjoying the delicious Pina Coladas made by Basilio the bartender, we were thoroughly impressed with the property even more than on our initial visit. Anytime we wanted food, drinks or a ride somewhere on the island both Basilio and Christopher happily took care of us without delay. It was a truly incredible experience. If you ever have the opportunity to visit Taboga Island do it and do yourself a favor by staying at Villa Caprichosa. You will not be disappointed with whichever villa or suite you choose. And if you're lucky you'll get to meet Diane Burn, the owner who oversees this spectacular property. Taboga Island has become our go-to getaway location and Villa Caprichosa is where we will always stay. We look forward to returning for years to come.
