About This Property
If you have ever dreamed of owning a private island in Panama, this off-grid waterfront home on Isla Solarte delivers privacy, comfort, and sustainable living. Set on a 0.4-acre island (Rights of Possession) in the calm, deep waters of Discovery Bay and surrounded by lush mangroves, it is just 15 minutes by boat from Bocas Town and reached via a 15-meter cement-supported dock for easy year-round access.
The 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home was completed in late 2020 by a well-regarded local builder. It is elevated on durable treated pine posts, with a spacious open lower level for utilities, rainwater tanks, and solar equipment. Upstairs is an open-concept kitchen and living room with French doors throughout for natural light and cross breezes, opening onto a wrap-around deck with sweeping ocean and jungle views — ideal for morning coffee or evening sunsets.
Built with premium cement walls and fiber-cement siding, the home pairs durability with elegance. The main bedroom includes a large storage room, and the second bathroom is complemented by an outdoor deck shower. Beyond the main residence, the property adds a waterfront bodega/workshop and an unfinished casita with roof, floor, and plumbing already installed — a blank canvas for a guest hut, tree house, or office.
Entirely off-grid, it runs on 12 Trojan solar batteries, solar panels, an Outback inverter, and a 24v-to-110v conversion system, with 2,500 gallons of rain catchment across house and workshop tanks — complete independence and no utility bills. The peaceful bay is perfect for paddleboarding, snorkeling, and kayaking, with coral reefs just offshore. Contact United Country Bocas del Toro to schedule a private island showing.
