Skype user: Only Habla Ya Spanish Students are eligible for the special extended stay rates that appear on this page when they make their reservation through us. These special rates are offered to our students due to the amount of traffic that we generate for these hotels. Most of our recommended lodging options are located within walking distance to the school (3 - 10 minutes). If you prefer to be just out of town, Boquete Garden Inn (5 minute taxi drive or 30 minute walk) and Casa Pedro Boquete (10 minute drive, 1 hour walk) are a great choice.
