Rancho Tranquilo

Survivor Style - This incredible property is located on the semi-remote Cayo Agua, a short 45 minute boat ride from Bocas Town.  Your trip to the property will lead you through some of the most pristine mangrove islands in the world and across an open expanse of the Caribbean bristling with coral reefs.  Upon arrival you will be greeted by a majestic yet primitive beach and with panoramic views of the Laguna de Chiriqui and the high mountains of the Central Cordillera of Panama to the South.  Sunsets viewed along the beach to the West are breathtaking and the jungle directly behind the property to the North teems with life.  It is the ultimate getaway property for those wanting to immerse themselves in the true island lifestyle.  Here you can literally escape the comforts of modern society and experience a Survivor style vacation.

The rental is composed of two buildings and a dock.  The larger dwelling is located right on the beach and is ideal for sleeping with a thick palm frond roof to keep you dry and cool and plenty of windows to allow for cross-ventilation.  The other is an open-sided structure located over the water adjacent the dock.  This building is perfectly suited for relaxation, meal preparation, dining or partying.  Only the most basic conveniences are provided in keeping with the Survivor theme - Native style furniture and hammocks for lounging, kerosene lamps and candles for illumination and simple coolers filled with ice to keep your perishables.  We also provide a propane stove and basic cooking utensils along with towels, soap and other essential items.  You will also find detached bathhouse featuring fully screened but open air shower facilities and an environmental toilet to meet your sanitation needs.

Meals may be prepared by you from items purchased in town or bought from the local Guyami Indians.  You may also wish to have your meals prepared by the natives and brought to your door.  If this is the route you choose to take please do not expect fancy or well decorated plates - what you will experience is completely safe and wholesome food gathered from the surrounding jungle and the sea.  We guarantee you will never experience anything like it anywhere else.

Recreational opportunities abound if you don't mind being a little adventurous.  Consider long walks on deserted beaches or hiking through the jungle.  Native style kayukas are provided should you wish to take a paddle down the beach or out to the nearby patch reefs for snorkeling.  Swimming is of course available right at your doorstep and fishing can be done from shore or from your kayuka.  If you wish guided trips can be arranged with the natives or one of our professional tour leaders.  Plan on socializing amongst yourselves as there are no neighbors or arrange a day trip to the nearby town of Chiriqui Grande or one of the resorts located closer to Bocas Town.  Whatever your pleasure we are here to do our best to make your trip a memorable one.

Let us help make your dreams come true with a stay at Rancho Tranquilo.
