Dolphin Bay, Bocas del Toro

This titled property for sale in Dolphin Bay, Bocas del Toro, combines 8,659 m² of land with access to Finca Buena Vida’s shared facilities and a growing eco-community. Located on San Cristobal Island, the property sits about 20–25 minutes by boat from town and places you next to upscale resort services while keeping the independence of off-grid living.

Land and Topography

The lot measures 8,659 m² (over two acres) and comes titled under a Panamanian corporation, included in the sale. The terrain slopes gently to the east. Most of the land stays dry, with a strip of wetland on the eastern edge fed by a natural spring. The soil at the lower slope supports planting. Mature trees remain in place, and earlier landscaping introduced guava, cacao, mango, lemon, coconut, bamboo, and several palm species, some of which continue to grow.

Two natural cold-water springs add value. One, in the northwest corner, produces a steady flow year-round. Another, still undeveloped, sits near the southwest. The northeastern section offers space to develop fish and shrimp ponds, also supported by a seasonal stream.

Construction

The property already includes an unfinished two-story octagonal structure. The main floor has 44 m² (478 sq ft), and the upstairs bedroom adds 16 m² (172 sq ft), for a total of 60 m² (651 sq ft). The house sits on twelve rebar-reinforced concrete piers with wide footings. Builders used durable local hardwoods such as nispero and angelim for the framing.

The upper floor features tongue-and-groove hardwood boards, ready to sand. The main floor is half complete, with space designed for board and tile. The roof consists of corrugated steel with a protective double paint finish. To finish the home, you need to complete the main floor, exterior siding, windows or mesh, wrap-around porch, stairs, septic system, and water catchment. A solar setup can provide energy, and piping from the spring can supply water.

Access and Infrastructure

You reach the property by trail from the Finca Buena Vida common dock. The community maintains this access path. For construction needs, an agreement also allows access through the adjacent resort waterfront lot. The property does not connect to public electricity or water, but natural springs, solar energy options, and water catchment systems provide off-grid solutions. Cell coverage and internet service are available in the area.

Location and Community

The lot sits within Finca Buena Vida, a community with shared common areas, agricultural produce, and a safe year-round presence of both residents and visitors. Next door, Blue Dolphin Paradise Resort provides a restaurant and amenities. From here, you reach Bocatorito for fuel and services, and you remain close to the coral reefs and natural attractions of Dolphin Bay.
