Holiday houses in Barú District, Chiriquí

Elvire is super good host and the place is beautiful! Excellent for enjoying the sea, super rich weather, beautiful house. I loved it! Highly recommended!!

We had a wonderful stay at Gary & Barbara’s casita. We had such a great time when we stayed there last year that we came back and brought 2 friends! The casita is very clean, beds are especially comfortable and we very much enjoyed the pool. Gary & Barbara had great suggestions for beaches to go to, restaurants and things to do in the area. We hope to come back next year!

It is a country house, simple, but very spacious and cozy. As soon as you enter, you feel you have arrived at your grandparents' house, with souvenirs and photos of childhood. Each well equipped room with its comfortable bed(s) and A/C, which is very necessary given the characteristic climate of the Barú District. We were able to sleep peacefully and rest prior to the activities that were waiting for us during the day. It's great for walking trips with kids, which was our case. The kitchen had the necessary utensils to prepare food. Everything was clean. Julissa's availability and prompt communication was the look that excelled in this listing.

LOVED this place. We felt right at home. Cindy and Mathieu were wonderful hosts. Friendly and helpful. Recommended some wonderful local restaurants and were a wealth of information for the area. The kitchen STOCKED. You can cook meals and have everything you need. The beach is super close and so peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay again and bring some friends.

They dealt with the current Puerto Armuelles water crisis well with tanks and a well. The neighbours were friendly despite our lack of Spanish. When the muni-water went out for 4 days, they made sure we got water from the water truck. A great chino mini-super 3.5 blocks away. The food in local restaurants was great, as was the food from the local fruit & veggie trucks/stands. Lots of shopping options for all the basics especially food. I expected given how far away it was that the food prices were going to be high but they weren't. The A/C's worked great, the fans were helpful and let us avoid running the A/C's all the time. Great beaches. Made a trip to mono feliz (happy monkey), teeth rattling road but lovely when we got there. We plan to go back and my kids have begged that we pick this place specifically for several reasons including the friendly kids who let them practice soccer with them even though they knew we were only there for a short time (4 weeks.) Rustic. Comfortable.
