Description from owner

Description

Casa 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 10 people). A/c throughout the main house, as well as free wireless internet.

On the main floor (2nd level) there is a Master Suite (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). The ground floor (1st level) has two rooms each with a set of bunk beds and a bathroom. There is hot water available throughout the house. There is a large storage area for all your gear, as well as 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 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 full service restaurants close to the house, and many more just minutes away by taxi. 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, snorkeling/diving, sampling local cuisine, shopping, taking Spanish lessons, going on a tour of the Botanical Garden, viewing wildlife, fishing, 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. Bikes, golf carts and ATVs can also be rented in town. Currently, there is not a car rental location in Bocas del Toro.

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!

“After a Monthlong Stay, Lots to Tell”

Reviewed 23 Dec 2022

My family has just come off 30+ days at Casa K and it was certainly an experience! The house itself was excellent, solid, spacious and comfortable with lots of good sleep spaces. We had varying numbers at the house, from two to three to seven at one point, and we had no trouble fitting us all. The balcony overlooking the water—the view you see in the main pic—is where we spent most of our time. The present view looks pretty different though, as the greenery in the front mostly obscures the ocean. But it certainly doesn't obscure the roar heard from the water. More on that in a sec. There was enough room on the deck for yoga for two or three, so it was pretty big. The ceiling fans throughout the home kept the house cool throughout the day. But there was also A/C if it got a little stuffy. The wifi was OK too. Not fast, but not agonizing either. We needed it to be serviceable in order to work. Those amenities made it OK to be inside if the weather was poor, which it was like half the time. Plus, if anything went wrong, the property management team was on it quickly, which we were grateful for. Now for some of the other things we discovered about the house, its location, and Bocas del Toro in general. The house is great if you're into surfing. I mean really great. The break in front of the house is desirable for the many folks who do that kind of thing. We aren't surfers, so we honestly couldn't get in the water, which was right in front of the house. We couldn't get in the water at the gorgeous beach 15 minutes to the north of us either, Bluff, because of the intense break and deadly rip current. In fact, if you are looking for a stretch of nice sandy beach to relax and swim, well, you basically have to travel. We were disappointed that we didn't have easier access at the house to actual swimmable beaches. This is not our host's fault of course. We just didn't ask the right questions. Also, getting back and forth to the house from town is not easy. We rented e-bikes the whole month and it was fine, but the road is horrendous. And I don't use that word lightly. The entire road around one side of Isla Colon, where the house is, is basically sand, an extension of the beach. If you don't rent a bike, you can take the bus or a cab, which we also did, but the cabs add up because they charge by the person not the trip. Again, just an observation. Finally, and maybe this is just me because my family didn't really seem to be impacted by it, but the sound of the surf is crazy loud. It's not the quaint noise of the occasional wave. It's a crashing, explosive sound that finds its way right through the screens under the eaves of the roof. The waves are consistently 6-10 feet, all day and all night, so there is no quiet. If you're looking for pure peace and quiet, bring earplugs. Again, we didn't know this going in and my family was not as bothered, but I was. Bocas del Toro is a pretty cool place. It's not pristine or particularly accessible, or cheap for that matter. It took us at least a week to get our bearings, to meet people, to discover its little secrets and begin to really enjoy ourselves. Once we learned enough, once we figured it all out, we were fine. We loved the neighborhood places, the bars and restaurants and the people that make this part of the world truly unique. Glad we booked Casa K for as long as we did, or else we wouldn't have given us time to truly discover it.
