Caribbean Cabins and Water Concession

Tucked away on the quiet south side of Isla Cristóbal in Bocas del Toro, this property offers a rare chance to enjoy a more laid-back, authentic Caribbean lifestyle. Isla Cristóbal is one of the larger islands in the archipelago, known for its peaceful surroundings, lush jungle, and calm waters.

THE PROPERTY

The land measures more than 3000 square meters and includes a generous waterfront concession—which means you have legal use of the seabed surrounding the property, a major advantage. Along the water’s edge, there are two private docks, offering easy access for boats, kayaks, or swimming. The coastline here is protected and calm, and there’s plenty of room to set up deep-water mooring if you have a sailboat or plan to welcome visiting boaters.   Whether for personal use or future development, the waterfront setup gives you plenty of flexibility.

THE BUILDINGS

There are three  main buildings on the property as well as a covered  rancho space, and a chicken coop and a generator house. The main home has a comfortable layout and tall ceilings with a full kitchen, bathroom, and a large open living space, along with an attic that could be used for storage or turned into a sleeping area. Nearby, there’s a two-story structure with two unfinished apartments—a great option for adding rental units or guest suites once completed. The third building is a  separate cabana, which could serve as a guest house, caretaker’s quarters, or a cozy Airbnb rental.

THE DREAM

The Caribbean Cabins and Water Concession is perfect for a home improvement project or vacation rental development:

Whether you’re looking to build a rental business, create an off-grid getaway, or just enjoy island life at your own pace, this place has a lot going for it. The setting is quiet and beautiful, with easy boat access and lots of room to grow. And with space for deep-water anchorage, it’s also a great fit for boaters looking for a safe, scenic place to call home in Bocas del Toro.
