The Nayara introduces a new level of all-inclusive style to Panama’s lush jungle- covered Caribbean archipelago of Bocas del Toro.

Situated amidst the mangroves of a remote and otherwise uninhabited island, the overwater villas of Nayara Bocas del Toro offer dreamy ocean views and a back-to- nature experience without compromise on comfort. Four-poster beds, ample living space, ocean-front terraces and elegant Balinese-style décor add to the feel of a luxury tropical island escape. Private Pool villas come with their own saltwater plunge pool whilst Water Window villas have the added special design feature of a glass floor inlay for you to keep your eyes out for marine life swimming beneath your villa. Perhaps most unusual are the Treehouses – 15m above ground level with sweeping views – and built of hardwoods which were harvested from the bottom of the Panama Canal.

Boardwalks lead off to the fine-dining restaurant, pool and social areas where you may mingle with other guests. Dreamy days can be spent swimming, paddleboarding and kayaking among the mangroves, or relaxing on the island’s so-called aerial beach – a wide pontoon with steps leading into the ocean. Or perhaps sign up for an open-air spa treatment on your villa terrace. Off-site snorkelling tours and excursions to beaches and other islands can be organised locally. The hotel is adults-only (16+).

What our clients say

  • Each part of my trip had a special moment. I loved both the new and old parts of Panama city, but my highlight there was seeing sloths while walking up…

    TF, Wakefield Jun 2018
  • Top experiences in Panama - going through the canal and exploring Panama City and surrounding area. I was surprised to find that Panama is not just the Canal Zone!

  • Most memorable experience: “Tranquillo bay was a cut above everything else.   Staying on Waidup (near Isla Tigre) was also special.”

    MH, Chiswick Dec 2013
  • We didn't realise the partial canal transit would be in such a big boat with loads of other tourists - not a problem, but would have been good for this…

    NF, Tunbridge Wells Apr 2013
  • "Most memorable was watching mother and baby two-toed sloths from bedroom window at Canopy Tower. Early morning on the roof of Canopy Tower listening to howler monkeys as the sun…

    NW, Kidlington Jun 2013
  • Most Memorable Moment?: Too hard to choose one. Panama Canal Transit was a lifelong ambition.
