The
Kimball and Viola families built Tranquilo Bay inside the rainforest
overlooking the Caribbean Sea and the beautiful
Panamanian jungle. Their central location within the archipelago
of Bocas del Toro permits exploration of some of the most biologically
diverse areas within Panama and Central America. Bocas del Toro,
Panama includes an archipelago of some 68 tropical islands which
are excellent for beach combing, birding and exploring. Around
the many reefs and lagoons you may fish, snorkel and surf.
The
province of Bocas del Toro hosts two national parks, one of which
is a world heritage site. One park, Bastimentos National Marine
Park, covers a large portion of the archipelago and is home to
a variety of ecosystems which thrive at or around sea level.
The other park, Palo Seco Nature Reserve, is on the mainland and
reaches
through Tranquilo Bay.
The
best Bocas del Toro hotel, is your home base to explore the islands
and highlands of Western Panama.

The
Accommodations
Each
of the six cabanas feature a spacious tiled interior with French
doors opening to a large, covered elevated
porch area. They each have a large bathroom with a walk-in
shower. Each cabana has its own water heater and air conditioner.
Three
cabanas have queen size beds and the other three have two double
beds. Each cabana is tastefully and comfortably appointed with
locally handcrafted furniture made for Tranquilo Bay. Hammocks
and comfortable Adirondack chairs on each porch allow guests
to relax and enjoy the view of the ocean or tropical jungle.
The
Main
Lodge is where meals and indoor recreational activities take
place. The ocean view and elevation over the jungle canopy
are incredible.
The upstairs balcony is the perfect place to watch the sun
rise with your morning coffee and the moon rise in the evening
with
a cold beverage. The monkeys and birds also travel through
on their late afternoon feeding migration.

A Socially and Environmentally Responsible Lodge
We at Tranquilo Bay believe
it is our responsibility to operate with conscientious attention
to resource stewardship, thus we designed
Tranquilo Bay for our guests. Our guests have an appreciation for
nature so we designed for them a lodge, which is luxurious in a way
that fits into the beautiful Panamanian rainforest.
