Awesome Vacation!
Dragon and Zu were awesome hosts! We quickly became friends. The casita over the water was incredible and it felt like we were living on top of our own giant aquarium. We were visited by dolphins, rays, needle fish and even a nurse shark. The cool breezes off the ocean were nice to cool us off in the heat of the day. Zu helped us arrange a couple of excursions in the area and made us an awesome fish dinner one night. We are happy that we got to experience this awesome place! Thank You Dragon and Zu! We hope to meet again.

Great vacation
It was very peaceful and relaxing. I would definitely recommend if you stay here to love snorkeling, swimming, spearing or reading a book. It’s remote which is good if you go into it with a glamping mindset!

Do you like bats in your bedroom?
I would not recommend this place as we discovered bats in the bedroom. There was bat feces on the bed. When we discovered this we left after one night. The host refused to give us a refund and we have not yet had any success with a refund with VRBO despite repeated attempts to contact them. We keep having calls dropped and then they close the case.

So much more than a VRBO
Our stay with Dragan and Zu was much more than a home rental, we became friends with our hosts (& their friends too!). They truly want to do everything possible to make your stay wonderful, which makes for a rich cultural experience as well! We ate fresh octopus delivered by a neighbor, went fishing w/ Dragan and a friend, saw the bioluminescence, dolphin, barracuda and lots of little fish right off our deck. A trip to Urraca and the Zapatilla islands is very close, as is a kayak to dinner and a popular snorkeling spot! We will recommend this area and this home to all our friends, and hope to come back! Thank you for an incredible adventure Dragan + Zu!

Great remote place / great accommodating host
We loved the location, it is just a little farther from town than some other places but that was a plus for us. It was exactly what we wanted. Dragan and Zu both were willing to do anything they could to make our stay great and helped us with contacts to get water taxis and such. Thank you Dragan and Zu for a great week! I consider them my friends now, not just people we rented from.

Ultra relaxing Bastimentos spot
The over-water casita at Dragan and Zu's place is a true refuge. This is a place for those who want to be removed from civilization, in a quiet, private, breezy tropical paradise. It's located at the far end of Bastimentos, about a 20 minute boat ride from Bocas town, and there are no stores closer than that. It's a lovely, rustic cabin with plenty of room and all basic amenities you need. Keep in mind, it's a place to relax and snorkel. There's one restaurant a short kayak away, but otherwise no civilization. Dragan and Zu are respectful of privacy but will also invite you to dinner and share their life if you so desire. I'm going back to the Casita for sure, but staying much longer next time.

Fantastic Stay in Paradise
We have had a fantastic time with Dragan and Zu. They were the best host/hostess we could ask for, and they assisted with every possible need or concern. The property was fantastic, warm water, a comfortable bed, and a great host/hostess. I would recommend the rental to any of my friends, family, or anyone interested in having a fantastic time in paradise. We are planning a second trip in September.

The perfect casita
This casita is idyllic. It was perfect for my family - 2 adults, 2 teen girls. We had enough space, enough hot water, comfy sleeping arrangements and facilities for cooking and keeping food cold. We stayed 7 days and nights and could have stayed a little longer. Dragan is a wonderful host, carefully checking we had everything we needed for our stay. The snorkeling near the casita was great! There are multiple small reefs surrounding the area, the water is calm, and we all spent a lot of time in the water.

We loved the remoteness. The casita was quaint. Kitchenette adequate for simple meals.
Dragan was a very gracious host and made our stay fun despite the weather. We consider him a friend and hope to meet him again some day.
