Rich and Susan are the very definition of hospitality. This was our third stay at Villa YOLO — and every visit has been perfect. They anticipate your every need and then some. Sure there are other places to stay in Boquete but why would we ever want to? Villa YOLO is paradise to us and now it’s part of our tradition. Hope to see you again next time — hoping when we decide to visit again we can still get a reservation.

This is a beautiful, well-appointed apartment with wonderful views situated in a peaceful gated up-scale community. It had everything we needed. We spent a great deal of time lounging on the terrace which overlooked lush gardens and a pond with views of the mountains in the distance. Above all, the hosts, Rich and Susan, were incredible - friendly, helpful, and always available if we needed anything. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Rich and Susan are the best hosts, they think of everything to make sure your stay is enjoyable! Very nice people, the place is fantastic, located in a gated community that is within walking distance from town. This was our second stay at their VRBO we liked it so much, and I am pretty sure we will be back again!

Lovely apartment in gorgeous setting

This apartment is set up with everything you can possibly need and the bed is extremely comfortable. We cooked several meals and enjoyed eating out on the balcony overlooking the beautiful valley while butterflies and hummingbirds flitted by. The hosts were so gracious that they made us feel more like houseguests staying with old friends rather than simply renters in an apartment.

We just spent 3 nights in Boquete - surroundings are absolutely gorgeous. I loved relaxing on the balcony taking in the view. Walk downhill to town and easy to get a taxi back. Very roomy, comfortable, well stocked accommodations. Hosts, Rich and Susan, went to supper with us on the first night and were a great source of local info. Rich offered transfer to/from airport which was greatly appreciated because it simplified our travel. We highly recommend staying with these very kind people at this wonderful property.

No Need to Look Further — YOLO is The Place to Stay!!!

My husband and I have stayed at YOLO twice. Both times Rich and Susan have anticipated our every need. The property is amazing and close to town. The first time we walked everywhere and this time we had a rent car. Both were good experiences but to be honest, we are getting older and the rent car was much better. We are already looking forward to our next visit and hoping we will be able to stay once again at YOLO.

Great vacation!

We enjoyed our stay at Valle Escondido. We spend 23 days at Rich’s property. We did not have a car and walked into town and around the beautiful property everyday. Although it was the rainy season, the rain never prevented us from any outdoor activities. Sue and Rich were wonderful hosts and provided us with a lot of helpful information. We highly recommend staying at this beautiful property with the view of the mountains, clean air and natural beauty.

Great stay in Valle Escondido

We spent 6 weeks in Valla LoLo. Everything thing was perfect. This was during a period of time when many Panamanians were protesting, closing roads and causing shortages of some items. While staying here we were hardly effected. We had good water, adequate propane and convenient shopping at several grocery stores. We couldn't have been in a better place.

Not to be missed

We spent five wonderful days in this little gem. Bed was very comfortable, kitchenette had everything we needed, phenomenal views from the terrace and hosts that couldn't have been more gracious and accommodating. They are both a wealth of knowledge. If you are considering a move to Boquete, a visit to YOLO is a must. 10 out of 10!!

Paradise

Paradise really is the only way to describe Boquete and our stay with Rich & Susan. We opted to have Rich pick us up and take us back to the airport which made everything so much easier. I must say, the bed is amazing… it was as if I was sleeping on a cloud. Rich & Susan thought of everything you might need and more. We will definitely refer friends and be back.

Peace, beauty, and perfect place to stay

The villa is more impressive than the photos could ever capture. Has everything you need and if there is something you don’t have Rich is just a text away to help you with the information you need. We were there almost a month and loved waking up every day, especially hearing the birds, breathing the freshest air ever, and having coffee grown right there on the mountains as we took in the amazing view from our veranda. Close location but with a remote feel. We hope to stay there again.

Great spot to enjoy beautiful Boquete.

Hosts were extremely accommodating with all requests and informative about the area. Located in beautiful resort community just outside of town. Great views from the delightful terrace, quiet and peaceful. We had rental car, which was desirable, but taxis widely available. Walk to town and back would have been tough for us as seniors. Overall a wonderful place to enjoy an exceptionally beautiful part of Panama. Superb weather, breezes, mild temperatures every day. Thanks to the hosts for everything!

A taste of paradise

Richard and Susan were outstanding hosts. In fact, they go far and beyond just being excellent hosts. Richard met us at the grocery store to provide us with a drive back to the house and also dropped us off at the end of our stay. The unit is provided with everything you would need. We’d have no hesitation in returning and in fact hope to include it once again in our travels next year.
