Villa F B Private Bay Boutique Hotel

Designed by Italian architect Mauro Terno, who specializes in luxury Caribbean construction, the property combines tradition with modern comfort. All rooms were built to highlight the panoramic views of the bay—visible from the terrace or even from bed. The hotel adheres to Panamanian construction standards, including earthquake-resistant foundations, reinforced structures, and weather-resilient materials.

The boutique hotel is painted fresh white, providing contrast to the lush surroundings: red gingers, hibiscus, and vibrant mangroves. The view extends to the mountain ranges on the mainland, creating a serene and luxurious environment.

THE BUILDINGS
Two twin 2-story buildings, each featuring:

• • 2 rooms on the ground floor (king bed + ensuite bathroom)

• • 2 apartments on the upper floors with 2 bedrooms + large living room

• • One suite currently serves as manager’s quarters

Central communal space includes:

• • Professional kitchen

• • Covered dining and lounge area with handcrafted furnishings

• • Swimming pool with bay views

THE ISLAND
Nestled in a calm bay and surrounded by undulating mangroves, the hotel sits on a private point extending from the west side of Isla Solarte. It is protected from the movement of the sea and risks of erosion, offering a stable and peaceful environment.

The location is ideal—just 15 minutes by boat from Bocas Town, 10 minutes from Red Frog Beach, and a direct route to the postcard-perfect Zapatilla Islands. This makes it the perfect base for guests eager to explore the highlights of Bocas del Toro.

THE DREAM
Villa F&B Off Grid Boutique Hotel is perfect for the Hotelier:
With recently acquired extra land, there’s potential for jungle cabanas, manager housing, or even over-the-water bungalows—thanks to concession eligibility.

Villa F&B is also ideal for a Marina Concept:
A hurricane-safe bay surrounded by mangroves makes this the perfect spot for a hurricane hole, appealing to sailors seeking refuge during storm season or while preparing to cross the Panama Canal.
