Island vacation rentals in Bocas del Toro District

Do NOT miss this stay. This is not an accommodation, this is a whole experience! We stayed for part of our honeymoon and wish we could have been here for the whole thing. The food was beyond perfect, Alicia and Francine accommodated vegan with food allergies. The cocktails are all fresh and fantastic on demand from local herbs and fruits. Francine called in a local masseuse, who gave the perfect massage.. The view and surrounding nature was aw inspiring. The venue was glorious, the food divine, and Francine and her team like family. Don't forget to ask about the contributions to the local indigenous community, and contribute further by purchasing their art. You won't regret your stay on Urraca!

We were very happy with our stay. Exactly what we wanted (lots of wildlife to take pictures of, colorful frogs, Tucan, many sloths, hummingbirds, Insects, dolphins, Monkeys, butterflies,...) but you need time, we stayed 12 days and each day we found something new. Very nice people, very helpful, great knowledge about the plants and animals and of course the chocolate. Did excursions with Pepito which we liked. We really liked the dark nights with the stars. Bring a good flashlight.

Al Natural es un paraíso en la tierra, Michel el dueño un gran profesional siempre atento, el lugar paradisíaco, playas, selva. Duermes con ruido de olas del mar y animales de la Selva trasera. Comida espectacular tanto el desayuno como el almuerzo y la cena de otro mundo con velas y comida del chef Vicente con todos los alojados en el resort juntos comentando todo. El resort tiene paddle surf y kayaks y mascaras de buceo y aletas para relajarse. Aquí se va uno a relajar y estar con la naturaleza. En definitiva un espectáculo de alojamiento os lo recomiendo......

Stop scrolling ! You have found heaven on earth! Thank the universe and book! Where to begin ? The property itself is stunning- the construction is beautiful and the view is amazing. Yes! There are dolphins right outside. Erika’s daughter spotted us a jumping pod when we were getting on the boat one morning. Spacious, well stocked, great beds, paddleboards, amazing bathtub and laundry. But the real treasure is the staff! Like wow! A+ service. From the chef, to Erika, to Jose the boat captain to the insanely talented masseuse, this place has quiet luxury on lock. It’s an incredible value. We especially loved ZapAtilla island, dunking into the water off the front deck and then chilling in the hammocks ! Saw a sting ray and many tropical fish - don’t skimp on the snorkeling opportunities! Julia does an incredible job and the management is world class. Erika- this review is esp for you! We loved your soul 💫 So helpful !

Like every other review this place is incredible. We didn’t want to leave! Our tips would be - take more cash than you think you’ll need and a little more food than you think you’ll need. 😆 we ate at the restaurant one evening which was lovely and their chef is amazing but otherwise it was easy to fend for ourselves in the incredible setting. Touring the community is amazing (take your bug spray!) and the other outings were equally as memorable. We also toured the cacao farm in Dolphin Bay which was great! We were there with our twin boys who are 7 and not a moment of boredom! The house kitty was adorable and the boys named her Tinta (Valimir said she didn’t have a name yet so was happy she got one 😆) The boys are ready to go back!

This little gem is absolutely magical. We were picked up in Bocas by the hosts friend and brought to this incredible place with only a 12 min boat ride from bocas. Their pictures don’t even do this place justice. The beauty is even better in person. I recommend eating the breakfast they offer. Absolutely fresh and delicious. We will be back for sure!

It is difficult to find words to describe a place with such natural beauty and warmth. I searched the internet for a location that was suitable for a proposal and was very much pleased with my decision to go with urraca private island. Francine was very responsive and accommodating. She amplified our stay with her genuine passion to make our experience a memorable one. Her attention to detail was amazing and gave me so much peace of mind. She exceeded every expectation. The space was amazing, with breathtaking views if the ocean that seemed to go forever. The sunset and sunrise we’re as beautiful as it gets. There were plenty of activities to take advantage of as well a turtle tour that was a highlight of our stay. I would definitely recommend taking advantage of this as it is very exclusive and a check off our bucket list. I took advantage of one of the packages offered on her website and received a great value. I know the price for some of us is always a factor but believe me when I tell you this place is worth every penny. Thanks again Francine for your graciousness, we look forward to revisiting this magical place. -Manny
