Fodor's Expert Review Punta Rica Private Jungle Villa
South end of Old Bank, Bocas del Toro, Bocas del Toro, Panama
Perched on the hillside of Isla Bastimentos, this off-grid luxury villa is constructed entirely of rich woods and is void of closed doors and glass windows, exuding a feeling of openness and connection with nature. A jungle trail leads from a private beach to the main house, a self-sustainable property operating on solar power and a rain water system. Indonesian furnishings decorate the four rooms, each remarkably spacious with two floors, a living room, private bath, and patios with hammocks. Included in the rate are two meals per day served in the main lounge surrounded by treetops. It's worth staying here for the European cuisine alone.
