Nayara Bocas del Toro : Panama’s Private Island Resort
Nayara Bocas del Toro, a private Island resort in Panama. Located in the Bocas del Toro archipelago on Frangipani Island, a private island off Panama’s Caribbean Coast within sight of spirited Bocas Town, this private island in Panama can be reached by a three-hour direct flight from Miami to Panama City Panama, a one-hour regional flight to Bocas Del Toro, and a fifteen-minute boat ride to Nayara Bocas del Toro.
Offering a refreshing alternative to the likes of Bora Bora, Tahiti, or the Maldives Nayara Bocas del Toro is an extraordinary Balinese inspired over-the-water getaway. Designed by Panamanian architect Andres Brenes, this private island retreat is inspired by his adoration for Balinese architecture, interior design, and beautiful wood and stone carving.
In fact, the custom overwater villas and 100-year-old Elephant House restaurant were shipped halfway around the world from Bali, Indonesia. Along with original artwork, such as a hand-carved soap stone mural and a sculpted two-ton sugar root, complement the hotel perfectly.
Nayara Bocas del Toro offer 3 luxurious accommodation options. Private Pool Villa, a luxury over-water villas are positioned to take full advantage of the Bocas Del Toro Archipelago. Relax in your private saltwater pool as dolphins pass by or step into the inviting crystal clear Caribbean water. The Private Pool Villa is also ideal for snorkelling thanks to its location amongst the coral with plentiful starfish.
Water Window Villas are over-water villas that feature a glass floor inlay to view the sea life below from inside the villa. Boasting a romantic fire pit and comfy deck sofa, the calm waters of the Caribbean Sea on this side of the bay is perfect for a leisurely swim.
Both Water Window Villa and Private Pool Villa feature a romantic Balinese tumpang sari canopy over your bed and stairs that directly take you into the sea. It is worth noting that all the overwater buildings are constructed and placed in specific areas to avoid interfering with the coral surrounding.
