About this property

Perfect for Families, Surfers and Nature-Lovers!!

Casa de K Beach House is a bright, spacious, and airy 2000+ sq ft home built on a 1/2 acre. It is the perfect home for large or small groups (accommodates up to 8 people). On the main floor (2nd level, up a set of stairs) there is a Master Suite (with a/c, balcony access, ocean view and a private bathroom), a Junior Suite (with a/c, jungle views and a shared bathroom), and a loft (with two double beds and a shared bathroom, up another set of stairs). The ground floor (1st level, separate entrances than the main house) has two rooms each with a set of bunk beds and a shared bathroom. There is hot water available throughout the house. There is a large storage area for all your gear, as well as a washer and dryer.

The house offers a relaxing living area with plenty of sitting room for all, as well as a large balcony with majestic ocean and island views. There is also a small balcony in the back to enjoy the alluring jungle scene. While sitting on the balconies, one can be serenaded by the ocean waves and jungle noises (birds, howler monkeys, tree frogs, etc). The balconies are perfect spots for enjoying the surrounding landscape filled with tropical foliage (plants, flowers and fruit trees) which draws a variety of tropical birds.

The kitchen is well-stocked: mugs, wine glasses, drinking glasses, etc. Plasticware and ceramic plates & bowls. A new stainless steel fridge. A new propane stove. A new water dispenser. Coffee pot & bean grinder. Blender. Pots & pans. Microwave. Toaster oven. Juicer… and more.

The house is located in a peaceful setting just outside of town and is close enough to easily enjoy the local charm of Bocas Town. There are three to five full-service restaurants within walking distance to the house, and many more just minutes away by bike or vehicle. It is a pleasant, culture immersing 45-60 minute walk to the center of Bocas Town.

This home offers a spacious, comfortable and relaxing location to hang out, but also provides a secure home base while you explore all the area has to offer - exploring Isla Colon and surrounding islands: hiking, swimming, boogie boarding, surfing, taking a catamaran tour, fishing, snorkeling/diving, sampling local cuisine, shopping, taking Spanish classes, ATV tours, e-bike adventures, viewing wildlife, horseback riding, looking for shells, etc.

Upon arrival in Bocas del Toro, property management staff can help arrange taxis for transportation and grocery shopping, as well as tours, and any other services you may be interested in.

This house is perfect for those who want to kick back and relax in a place where the untouched tropical rain forest meets the crystal blue waters of the Caribbean!

Great Property
Great house for group of friends or large family. Fully equipped kitchen with all you’d need, tons of towels and extra bedding. Views of the beach were amazing from the porch. Very quiet location but short walk to food and bars. We loved it. Very attentive hosts. Thank you!!

Communication/Customer Service not great
I was not happy with the communication/customer service from the property manager, Lorenna. Her emails were sporadic and abrupt. Leading up to my trip it was difficult to get info from her. Then she told me the house wouldn't be ready at check in time. She said she would recommend I go to lunch and shopping. My family had taken 3 flights and also were recovering from colds and did not feel like leaving our bags in a cab and walking around town. I was nice about it and told her we would patiently wait outside, which we did with no complaints. Then on check out day, I asked for a little flexibility on time, but she would not even give a half hour. She bluntly stated that the cleaning crew would be there promptly at 11am (which they were not). In addition, on the day we arrived in Bocas she had said she was sending a ride for us. I thought this was a kind courtesy gesture. When the driver dropped us off at the house, he asked for $20. We thought he was scamming us. We don't speak Spanish so could not sort it out with him and just paid him. The house itself was spacious with good AC. As others have stated, it's not totally clean. It was dusty/dingy and had things like empty hand soap bottles in the restrooms (No soap or shampoo provided). At any rate, it's a nice house, but not the best service or cleanliness.

What a great vacation!
We absolutely loved our 8 night stay at Casa de K! Our family of five (three teenagers) all had our own beds and good spaces. The house is beautifully constructed of tropical hardwood. The kitchen was fully equipped and we cooked a lot of meals for ourselves. Lots to do in the area - especially if you like tropical Caribbean paradise 😎. Wish we had more time there! Thanks Kristin, for a great family vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Kristin

Host profile image
Hola! My name is Kristin Bacon. I have been an Alaskan resident for 19 years, and need my soul kissed by the tropical sun and surf on a regular basis. I instantly felt as though I had arrived home when I got off the plane in Bocas del Toro for the first time in 2006. Currently, I own a pediatric therapy business in Alaska, as well as train and race Alaskan Huskies. For me, Bocas Town and this house offer the right combination of simplicity, relaxation, nature, culture and adventure.

Why they chose this property

I chose this property because of its peaceful location and quality construction, as well as the sound/view of the ocean waves and easy access to surfing. These features made this property ideal to me. I also love the abundance of wildlife that can be seen and heard around the house.

What makes this property unique

I love the tranquility this home offers!! Casa de K's private location allows me to simply enjoy the sights and sounds of the ocean, tropical foliage and variety of wildlife. And, as a surfer this property is hard to beat. Additionally, there is easy access to all that Bocas has to offer -- cultural diversity, water sports, many restaurants, shopping, adventures, Spanish classes, yoga, organized tours, etc.
