We just spent 4 wonderful days at this B&B. Randy and Kat have created the ideal getaway spot with casitas tucked into a lush botanical garden that includes winding paths and panoramic views. Sunrise each morning on the ranchito deck drinking coffee fresh roasted from Randy’s coffee plantation. Then a delicious breakfast delivered to the casita and a chat with Randy about our plans for the day. At night, sipping a glass of wine out on the deck under the starry sky with the highlight seeing the Southern Cross for the first time. Randy offered to shuttle us back and forth to town so we were able to easily book tours and restaurant reservations. During our daily rides, we talked about life in Panama, with Randy sharing stories about his life as an ex-pat and B & B owner. He has such a positive spirit and a great sense of humor. We also met his lovely wife, Kat. Our thanks to both of them for one of the most relaxing getaways we’ve ever had.

Everything, it is paradise in the mountains. Randy is a real super host and genuinely wants to make your stay special. The suite has everything you need, even little extras you didn't know you needed. It was an absolute pleasure to stay at manana madera, I hope to return again someday. Thank you Randy.

The mountain side view from your individual guest houses is spectacular as is the view from the gazebo at the end of your walkway. Fabulous night skies when its not cloudy. Each guest has their own small house with a large bedroom and living room. The (continental) breakfast you order the night before is delivered to your door and served on your kitchen table. Its only 15 minutes by car to the 3 most popular trails in the area and only 15 minutes to downtown Boquete. A place like this in the States would cost $1,000/night.

Randy's place was our most beautiful stay in Panama. He is a very accommodating host, the bungalows and their gardens are beautifully kept and the area itself is wonderful. We were only there for four nights, but would have wanted to stay at least a week there. On top of everything Randy's self produced coffee is very good. The Guest Suites at Manana Madera are an extraordinary and incredibly beautiful hideaway. Thank you for such an amazing time! We will definitely be coming back.

Manana Madera is a marvelous place and Randy is the most amazing host I've ever met! The little house I stayed in was exceptionally clean and cozy, with a comfortable bed, lots of amenities and a serene and beautiful view. It felt like home away from home. Randy was really helpful and made sure I have the best of my short time in Bouqete. He showed me nests with newly hatched humming birds in his garden, guided me to the waterfall trail and recommended places to eat. He even gave me a cell phone to get in contact with him in case I needed a pick up or something else. I had such a great time! Thank you, Randy!

The hosts made the difference, the attention to detail was incredible. I really enjoyed the fact that each day they would let us pick our breakfast from different options and were nice enough to offer details about the place and things to do in Boquete.
