Bocas del Toro is where you want to be. We carefully chose Playa Istmito on Isla Colon in Bocas del Toro for the Bocas Garden Terraces. The island chain is one of the most beautiful areas in all of Panama. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country, with a wealth of offerings for those desiring adventure, relaxation and the sense of peace that can only be found by escaping to an island retreat. Bocas is located outside the hurricane zone. The temperature is comfortably in the high 70’s to 80’s (21-32 degrees Celsius) year round. Imagine a life spent in shorts, skirts and sandals every day of the year! The Islands’ jungle rainforests are home to countless birds, butterflies and colorful flowers, as well as howler and capuchin monkeys and sloths. A heavenly delight for hikers, birdwatchers and photographers. Bocas has several gorgeous white-sand beaches lined with swaying palm trees. Water enthusiasts are drawn to the archipelago for the crystal clear water and colorful coral reefs, making it one of the best places for scuba diving and snorkeling in the Western Caribbean. World-class waves bring surfers from around the globe. There are numerous local tour operators available for these activities as well as sailing, fishing, jet-skiing, kayaking and sightseeing. The airport on Isla Colon offers convenient daily access via two national airlines from Panama City, AeroPerlas and Air Panama, and from San Jose, Costa Rica, Nature Air. Playa Istmito—Beyond Ideal The Bocas Garden Terraces condominiums are located in a quiet, new neighborhood of Bocas Town on Isla Colon, the archipelago’s main island, where many modern buildings are being built, including a luxury condominium building with two swimming pools and marina. A tranquil location with enchanting breezes, magnificent views of the azure Caribbean and just steps from the beach, yet easily accessible to local services. Within walking distance are grocery stores, a hardware store, and local bars and restaurants. The Condos Along with our fine construction and quality finishes, our buildings offer all of the modern amenities that you and your guests could wish for. City services such as water, electricity and telephone, as well as satellite television and high-speed internet access are all available. This is not true if you purchase property further from town or on other islands, where you may need to catch your own rainwater, produce your own electricity, and the luxuries of television and internet service are not even available. The Community Bocas del Toro offers a vibrant Caribbean atmosphere with a mixture of colorful cultures. Bocas Town has many restaurants serving something for everyone, from local fried chicken with plantains to filet mignon. For you night owls, there is also a spirited club scene and live music can be found most any day of the week. There are several lively street festivals, carnivals and parades throughout the year where you can experience a fiesta of local music and dance. Bocatoranians are happy, friendly people and many of them speak English, in addition to Spanish.
