Escape to an eco-friendly oasis in the Bocas del Toro archipelago! Urraca Monkey Island invites guests 12+ to unwind in luxurious overwater bungalows, discover enchanting mangroves, and experience unmatched privacy in nature’s paradise. Accessible via a 35-minute boat ride from Isla Colon, this preserved island offers more than just an escape—it’s a journey into pristine natural beauty.

About the host
Hosted by Francine
Urraca Monkey Island was born from a passion for sustainability, nature conservation, and creating unique experiences. Originally from Montreal, Canada, I wanted to build a retreat where guests could disconnect from the rush of everyday life and reconnect with nature.
Hosting at Urraca is my way of sharing this stunning environment, while providing an eco-friendly, one-of-a-kind escape in the heart of Panama’s pristine Bocas del Toro archipelago.
My hope is that guests leave with a deeper appreciation for the delicate beauty of these ecosystems.

Why they chose this property
Located in the serene, vibrant Bocas del Toro archipelago, Urraca Monkey Island is in an area that captures the essence of Panama’s natural beauty.
This neighborhood is surrounded by turquoise waters, abundant marine life, and the rich culture of the Ngäbe indigenous community.
My favorite part is the peaceful isolation, allowing guests to enjoy complete immersion in nature. Here, the sunrise and sunsets are spectacular, and the proximity to hidden beaches, coral reefs, and mangroves makes it ideal for exploring.
