Good to know

We are off the grid, completely self-contained, with solar power and captured rainwater. While enjoying the western comforts, we do our best to conserve our resources and reduce waste.

We have a friendly, loyal dog who will greet you enthusiastically.

She loves guests and is our self-appointed security officer and receptionist.

Lush and warm all-year around with average temperatures 75-85°F, Bocas experiences tropical rain showers. It's a good idea to pack accordingly.

 

Our bar "Just One More" offers beverages for sale, including alcohol, fresh fruit smoothies and soft drinks.

 

With consciousness to reduce waste and plastic, we encourage bringing a refillable water bottle. We have easily accessible filtered water available.

Its our pleasure to accommodate you!
