About Gran Kahuna Hostal

Internet Access

Gran Kahuna is one of the most comfortable hostels in beautiful Bocas del Toro, which is well known for having some of the best surfing in the Caribbean.

Even though foreigners have been coming to Bocas for more than ten years, it was not until recently that Bocas became a surfer's and backpacker's destination.

Gran Kahuna Hostel opened recently, becoming the first surf orientated hostel in Bocas del Toro and all of Panama, offering clean rooms complete with brand new utilities and a happy and helping staff ready to make your stay in Bocas as easy going as possible.

We are the most easiest hostel to find in Bocas since we are in the main street, centrally located and facing the ocean.
