BALINESE STYLE OCEANFRONT ECO RESORT BOCAS DEL TORO, PANAMA

Turn-Key Boutique Beach Resort for sale like no other in Panama! Right on the gorgeous and unspoiled Bluff Beach.....

Island Plantation boutique resort is located on a stunning virgin beach on the main island of Bocas del Toro where Bocas Town and the local airport are located (several daily non-stop flights connecting Panama City). The resort has ten luxurious guest units that are made of tropical hardwoods, hand-crafted furnishings, and decorated beautifully in Bali style with private, semi-outdoor bathrooms and double sinks. All rooms are surrounded by the jungle and gardens and are only a few steps away from an amazing, four-kilometer golden sand beach. Some of the guest units have ocean and beach views. This 6,000 plus square meter property sits right in front of the beach with a lush rainforest jungle backdrop and is accessed via a dirt road 8km from the town. Taxis and local buses provide full accessibility to this stunning location. This hotel is one of only two properties on this beach that has a title all the way down to the beachfront.

In addition to the sought after guest units, the hotel owns and operates a locally famous money-making beach bar (right on the sand) and pizza restaurant (wood-fired Italian), and an upscale bar and restaurant in the main building of the property, facing the in-ground, tiled pool (4x15 meters) and the beautifully landscaped gardens. The property also has a large tropical yoga/meditation platform in the jungle and three-story staff quarters which include a manager's apartment and an owner's apartment, staff rooms, workshop, and a staff gym. There are 20 rooms total counting guest sweets

A thoroughly trained team, including a resident hotel manager and office assistant, ensures top-notch guest attention and smooth operation without owners’ presence on the property. This is augmented by fully on-line management systems (PMS with integrated Restaurant POS, Camera & Energy systems) ensuring full owner oversight from anywhere in the world. The hotel is completely off-the-grid (with the exception of the Internet signal) and independent, making its own electricity with a large state-of-the-art solar and generator system and a large water catchment and management system.

The property which is owned by a Panamanian Corporation has current building permits for expansion. All up-to-date government permits are in place and the business will be sold turnkey with all high-end furnishings and decoration, equipment, supplies, and electronic infrastructure and management systems (including website and staff if desired) via the sale of the corporate shares. The resort has been operating for six years and is well integrated into the market and considered one of the top properties in Bocas and Panama.

The location of Island Plantation (Bluff Beach) is developing fast and an opportunity to secure beachfront land in this area and of this quality will not last long.

Our asking price for this profit-making business is 2.9 million USD (seller financing could be considered). Contact us for more information or for an appointment to view this one-of-a-kind turn-key property.
