Stayed at Eclypse for two nights, we absolutely loved it here!! Beautifully appointed bungalows, wonderful deck with hammock, gorgeous tropical gardens and excellent snorkeling around the property. We enjoyed a welcome cocktail upon arrival and had a great time exploring Bastimentos during our stay. We will definitely return to Eclypse, it doesn't get much better :)

Beautiful, well appointed bungalows in a perfect setting. A must see, the amazing acres of tropical gardens. The resort has a very romantic vibe, and relaxing atmosphere. The hosts and thier staff were friendly and very accomodating. Day trips to the outer beaches----THE BEST.

A truly beautiful place. Make sure you realize that you need a boat to get... More

I recommended Eclypse de Mar to all my friends and colleagues after returning from our trip there. The overwater bungalows are elegantly constructed over perfect aquamarine waters. Each bungalow has a private deck with a gorgeous view of the water and sailboats. We spent a lot of time just laying out in the sun and jumping off our private dock... More

We had the best time at Eclypse de Mar. Staying in the honeymoon bungalow was without a doubt the highlight of our trip to Panama. The bungalow is beautiful and luxurious, and we loved swimming right off our deck, and having the outdoor shower to rinse the salt-water off afterward. We loved lounging in the sun chairs and the hammock,... More

The people at the hotel are extremely friendly, it helps that the owners are often around and are always trying to make the best of your stay. We were at a standard room for one night, then moved to the honeymoon bungalow. The bungalows are designed so as to give you complete privacy, great views of the sunset, the possibility... More
