The two meals I had at this pension over the water were the highlight of my otherwise mixed experience on Isla Bastimentos (see my other tips). Tom and Ina have been running this informal and relaxed establishment for years, and it is obvious that they love what they do. I was only sorry that the rooms were booked out for the dates of my stay. Dinner is served family style, and the place attracts travellers from around the world. One evening, I dined with folks from Germany, Australia, France, and the UK. The conservation is lively, and Tom is an accomplished raconteur with wide ranging interests. The food was excellent--and reasonably priced as well.
If you are on the island, I strongly recommend this place as your headquarters. It is also possible to get breakfast here. The owners are Germans, originally from the GDR, but fluent in English and Spanish.
Favorite Dish: There is only one dish per evening; however, the menu one night was fish, not my favorite, so the owners obligingly procured chicken for me.

I chose this place because I was looking for an alternative to the higher priced accomodations and "touristy" Bocas del Toro nearby. The island is easily reached by a short boat ride from Bocas. While...
