Sleek and Modern, Isla Solarte Home

STRAIGHT FROM A ”COASTAL LIVING” MAGAZINE

A stunning blend of West Coast modern design and tropical functionality, this elegant off-grid home is perched on a hilltop with breathtaking views of the sea and jungle. Fully equipped for sustainable living, it offers comfort, style, and seclusion—just 10 minutes from Bocas Town.

THE HOME

Built just three years ago, this beautifully crafted home is made of durable Almendro hardwood on a solid concrete foundation. Its open-concept layout includes a 30 m² covered terrace, teak furnishings, and expansive sliding doors that create a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
The living area is bathed in natural light, enhanced by jungle views through tall vertical windows at the rear. Adjacent, the open kitchen provides modern amenities and sleek finishes.

There are two spacious bedrooms, each with a private bathroom. The master suite includes an ensuite bathroom with a rare feature for off-grid homes—a bathtub. Positioned to capture the surrounding beauty, you can soak with views of the jungle and fall asleep to ocean breezes.

Two additional storage areas (one under the house, the other in the garden) keep your tools and lifestyle essentials organized.

THE PROPERTY

This 5,000 m² lot offers a mix of flat and elevated terrain, thoughtfully landscaped with fruit trees and a lotus pond near the seafront. A mangrove belt protects the shore while providing biodiversity.

A thick concrete driveway leads to the home’s elevated build site, accessible by the included ATV. Behind the home, the property rises into the jungle, ideal for gardening, nature trails, or simply enjoying the lush backdrop.
