Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Isla Verde

Three minutes from the center of town, this garden property has six spacious "roundhouses" and seven enchanting suites. Stone pathways wind past a cluster of citrus trees to the brightly painted lodges, each outfitted with a private bath, kitchen, and hammock, as well as cable TV and Wi-Fi. Roundhouses can sleep between four and six people but lack the large balconies of the suites. The Mariposa and Sark suites have by far the best views and design. Centering the property is a purple dome where breakfast is served daily 7–11:30. (It's not included in the room rate.) Pampering can be had in the small spa where massages and facials are available. One of Boquete's best restaurants, Mango, is located next door.
