Sustainable Off-Grid Retreatin Tropical Panama Paradise
Just 15 to 20 minutes by boat from the activity of Bocas Town, this unique property offers peace, privacy, and potential — all tucked away in a quiet, protected bay. Known as Loma Nuci on Bastimento Island, the property is surrounded by lush jungle and sits just minutes from popular spots like "The Cut" expat community and Red Frog Beach. There is safe anchorage in front of the property, and you can arrive at your own private boathouse, cross a natural mangrove tunnel, and take a short walk up to the hill. At the top, the two-story home sits high in the trees, offering beautiful views and a deep connection to nature. The lower level includes a bodega for storage or future expansion. Upstairs is the main living space — an open-plan kitchen and living area that opens out onto a large terrace. From here, you can spot dolphins in the bay or even see Volcán Barú on a clear day. The home has two bedrooms, a living room, and one bathroom. One of the bedrooms and the bathroom could use some updates, giving you a chance to put your own stamp on the place. There’s also an outdoor shower, perfect after a swim or hike.
The property includes a private pool with a large sun deck, all surrounded by tropical plants. The land itself is full of fruit trees, flowers, and even a chicken house — great for anyone interested in sustainable living. There’s also a small plant nursery on site, offering a head start for any gardening or reforestation projects. Birdwatchers will love the incredible variety of species that visit the property, thanks to its proximity to the adjacent national park. The home and surrounding land together encompass a total of 11.5 acres of undeveloped jungle with scenic walking trails, offering endless opportunities to explore, expand, or simply enjoy nature at its best.
The home is off-grid but fully equipped with modern systems: 7,500 liters of water storage, a 4,000-watt solar system with gel batteries, two sewage tanks, and a grease trap. Starlink internet is already installed, so you're connected when you need to be. With about an acre already cleared and in use, the rest of the land holds great potential for eco-tourism — whether you’re thinking guesthouses, cabins, or a small BnB. Loma Nuci is ideal for someone looking to live close to nature without giving up comfort. It’s not just a home — it’s a lifestyle choice. Quiet, private, and full of possibility. If you’re ready for something different — something real — this may be the place for you.
