Hostal Nomba Boquete
Let us tell you first of all that we are excited you are making travel plans to come to Boquete, Panama. From the moment you arrive, after of course seeing the natural wonders of the fertile valley we live, you will see healthy and very happy people who feel blessed to be living here.
It will also be difficult to miss the Baru Volcano towering high above the rich fields of coffee and old growth forests. What may surprise you is just how friendly the people from Boquete or “Boqueteños” can be, and how willing they are to offer a helping hand. The eco-adventure capital of Panama, is not to be miss, and in Boquete, we call that place our backyard.
