Birds everywhere, blue, yellow, red, black.... The restored house was very comfortable. The pipeline and the Smithsonian canopy tower are within a walkable distance . The dinner and breakfast perfect for the setting. When I return to Gamboa I will stay here again.

We loved this B & B that is located in the little village of Gamboa, close to the forests teeming with birds. The old canal house has been beautifully restored. Our room #3 at the upper floor was nicely decorated. In the morning we woke up with bird sounds. Staff were friendly and helpfull, and they were flexible to serve... More

I stayed in the B&B because less expensive places were unavailable during the time I wanted to visit. The place was clean and quiet and Danielo was very nice and attentive. A few reasons for the average review are that it's not the best place to stay or visit for a solo traveler, it was difficult to find despite calling... More

We stayed at Canopy B and B as we could not spring for the Tower. Once we saw the Tower,we were glad that we made this decision.The B and B is much more homey and spacious. You are not so isolated as you are at the Tower. One draw back is that you don't have priority for the tours. The... More

We stayed here for 3 nights while birding in the Gamboa area. Like many others, we had heard of the great birding at the Canopy Tower but didn't want to spend the "big bucks" to stay there so we chose the B&B. We rented one of the larger rooms on the second floor. It was nice and clean and the... More

We stayed here 3 nights while exploring pipeline road. We initially stayed at their sister property canopy tower. While the canopy tower is a unique experience, it was way too overpriced and the B&B was much more our style. The rooms are modest but very clean and the meals are great ( they were the same meals as the tower).... More

Clean, comfortable and quiet place to stay in an area with few choices. Breakfasts are excellent and the staff is very helpful and friendly but their english is limited. Inexpensive compared to the other well known resorts in the area. Dinner is available if you notify them in advance, we did not avail ourselves with that option, choosing to eat... More

We stayed at this B&B for 3 nights while visiting the Pipeline Rd. The B & B is simple, clean, and relatively affordable given the limited options in the area. The back yard birding is good, but they could use some more outdoor seating and hammocks. We did not pay ahead for meals, but I would recommend it to anyone... More

Reasons to stay at the Canopy Bed and Breakfast. 1) The neighborhood is historical and the homes are lovely as they date back to the times when the US had its dominant presence in the area. 2) The B&B is a much more affordable option for birders (as compared to its sister property, Canopy Tower) 3) There's a bus stop...
