A Magical Island
In spite of a hugely inaccurate description of amenities and personnel, this place is MAGICAL! The house is unique and beautiful and the views are spectacular. We loved the howler monkeys! The property manager and the onsite grounds keepers were a joy to communicate with. They took great care of us.

Everything you need to relax and wind down!
We were traveling South and Central America for two months and our stay in Mango Bay was one of the Highlights of our vacation. This gorgeous home is nestled among the coconut palms, avocado, banana and lemon trees. The three piece Bali style house features all glass front so you wake up, cook and relax while enjoying the amazing ocean views. The large kitchen has everything you need to cook, but be sure to stock up when you leave the mainland. One of our favorite daily routines was to cook dinner and sit on the deck to watch the monkeys and iguanas while we ate. The howler monkeys are a delight as well and be sure to take a hike through the back yard jungle to enjoy all the flora and fauna the island hosts! If you need anything, Victor, lives on the island and will attend to your needs there, and Christina is on the mainland and can make arrangements for tours, for pick up and for delivery back to the airport. Shawn is the house owner and is quick to tell you everything about the area and the culture and customs. Communication was always easy and even though we had to change our travel dates twice, he adapted with ease and made it work! We highly recommend a stay here if solitude and sun are what you need. It if solitude is not your thing, you can easily catch a ride to the nearest tourist attraction!

Unique off the grid Island
Fantastic opportunity to see Panama as it was many years ago before the land was cleared. Surprisingly accessible but very remote feeling untouched island that has a beautiful mostly glass set of rooms set well above a beautiful bay. Great communication with Shawn prior to our stay. He is rightfully proud of this amazing property. The friendly and very competent property manager Christa met us at the David airport. She nearly convinced us to not rent a car (we wish she had succeeded as you really don't need one, she very nicely ended up returning it for us while we were on the island) We then bought a huge amount of food at the local supermarket. nearly enough for our 8 days stay. She then helped drive our party to the tiny harbor where the boat captain Christian met us and took us to the island. While on the island we were very well taken care of by Toka and his wife Bonifacia, two indigenous panamanians who really know the island. Toka was nice enough to collect some delicious clams for us. He seemed surprised that we paid him market rate for them, please don't make the mistake of exploiting their helpfulness. Christian took us both to amazing untouched islands with beaches that have zero people on them, be sure to bring dry bags and plenty of water and you can spend a very Robinson Crusoe type experience. Drybags are nice as if you have them you can keep your stuff dry while accessing beaches that dont have great landing spots and thus zero people. You jump off the boat into 86 degree crystal clear water up to your chest, and ferry the stuff to shore. Lots of great wildlife on the island, howler monkeys , butterflys and poison dart frogs right near the houses and pelicans on the little island in front. Christian is also very patient in fishing and waterskiing, both of which are great. Also worth doing is a day trip to Boquete, a pleasant mountain town, Christa will take you there. The day trips are not free but absolutely worth it. If your spanish is good you can arrange them directly with Christian (very limited English) and Christa (OK English), otherwise they can be arranged through Shawn. I have travelled a huge amount but this Island will stay in my memory a long time.

Tranquility in an Unspoiled Marine Park
Well worth worth the nightly price if you seek something completely different for a get away from the so called civilized world. Howler monkeys and parrots will provide the audio backdrop to a stunning view with comfy digs. Pluses....Remote yet accessible, air conditioning for sleeping soundly, and wi-fi is available in case you need to stay connected. Daniel, a boat captain on the nearby mainland , is a great catch for affordable fishing , site-seeing, or for arranging picnics on picture perfect deserted islands scattered through out the park and beyond. Victor, the caretaker, is a kind , capable, and accommodating guy who will assist in making your stay a memorable one. The new kayak is great for circumventing ,exploring , and fishing near the island . It was wonderful to have a washing machine, gas grill , hammocks, excellent potable water , and few annoying insects. The only shortcoming was the rather uncomfortable living room furniture, and no beach chairs for all day island excursions. There is a very good chance I may be back some day!

Phenomenal
My wife, 3 teenage boys and I spent the last week of March, 2017 on Isla de Muertos. We have travelled extensively through Central and South America and usually judge the outcome of our trips by our children's reactions and comments. This was by far one of the best adventures we've had! For a week we had an island and tropical rain forest all to ourselves. The vegetation and wildlife are stunning. Whether you look up or down you find something amazing: howler and spider monkeys, parakeets and several other multicolor birds, dart frogs and lizards to mention a few. Throughout the day 'the voice' of the jungle changes according to which animal or insect prevails: it's phenomenal to follow from sunrise to sunset and when it is dark. The calm waters off the property make it easy to explore the island by water using either the paddle board or canoe. The incredibly long beaches of Boca Brava and the small town of Boca Chica (for dinner) can be reached easily with Victor. Gamez and Bolanos have beautiful beaches that I would recommend visiting. One of our dinners was a grilled albacore tuna caught by one of my boys during a fishing expedition with Daniel who also took us snorkeling in a truly spectacular and isolated setting. The house is very comfortable and well decorated and equipped. We loved it. We bought food in David for the 6 days we spent on the island. There are a few restaurants in Boca Chica, a 20 minute boat ride away. Isla de Muertos is remote but easy to reach mostly because of Shaun's team that will take care of transportation once you hit the ground in Panama City. My boys have already asked to return to Mango Bay!

Awesome! Beautiful view!
Everything you need is there except the grocery store. Victor was helpful with the generator at night with being off the grid. Really everything you need for cooking was available. We had a great time with Daniel snorkeling. Hardest part was directions with finding the boat ramp in Petregal since it wasn't at the big marina. We had fun with the paddle board, swimming from the dock and walking in the jungle.

Fabulous vacation spot!!!!!
The house is just beautiful and well-designed, with glass walls all around, raised decks and separate buildings for the master bedroom, additional bedrooms and for the kitchen and common area. It is completely off-grid solar with generator backup, so it is necessary to keep the AC to a minimum (we only used it after dark and had the units set for 26 C), but with the breezes and the fans, we were always comfortable both inside and out (we live in NC though, and are accustomed to warmer weather). If you need to have the AC at 18 C and running all day, this isn't the place for you. It is slightly buggy (it *is* a rainforest!), but we only used bug spray one afternoon (we stayed 5 nights) when we ventured out to explore the island a bit. We found that at dusk the no-seeums would occasionally be bad enough to send us indoors, but most of the rest of the time, we were fine outside without covering ourselves in noxious smelling deet! The island is really spectacular, from dozens of different species of butterflies and moths, to geckos and howler monkeys (they really aren't terribly loud :) ) There are mango, lemon, coconut and avocado trees, and pineapple bushes. We were there when only the coconuts and lemons were available, but we enjoyed those! The hosts, David and Linda (and their son, Russell) were always helpful and available to answer questions or help with arranging for transport to other islands,etc. Speaking of transport - Victor, the boat captain - is great! He really knows his way around the islands and is a very experienced and careful navigator/driver. He took us out to see some hump-backed whales (a baby and mother!) and to a great snorkeling beach. I am a bit leery of small boats, especially when the water is choppy - but I absolutely trusted Victor. The only small negatives I can think of (which are easily fixed) would be a) more hammocks. We fought over the one that was there. I was very happy the day I got to it first, because as I was lazily reading and occasionally gazing at the butterflies, I suddenly noticed a howler monkey, almost at eye-level and about 20 yards away. There were several more that were nearby, munching on leaves. The other suggestion I have is b) more lounging furniture. The couch is a very stylish, but not great for a family of 4 to lounge on together. A couple of large chairs that someone could curl up in would be nice.

Best Eco destination in Panama!
We chose Mango Bay Villa so work couldn’t find us! We decided on Panama as a destination because it is in the same time zone as the East Coast of the U.S, is on the dollar and, with direct flights to Panama City, we were able to relax more than travel during the week. Shawn (the owner), David and Linda (the caretakers), and Jose (David-town taxi driver) communicated with us regularly before we even left the States which eliminated much of our travel anxiety and made our arrival in David-town and transition to the Villa seamless. Jose took us to a grocery store for our staple items then showed us the best place to get amazing fresh fruit and local Panamanian cuisine before we left the mainland. Once in Pedregal we were introduced to Victor and his son Victor Jr. who transported us to the Villa via a breathtakingly beautiful water taxi trip. His knowledge of the mangroves as he maneuvered through the many islands and around the sand bars made our 9 year old daughter comment more than once, “this is better than going to Sea World.” (She had never been on a boat before—and enjoyed being on the open water). Upon our arrival, we were met at the dock by David, Linda and Perro (Mango Bay Villa’s unobtrusively sweet resident pooch), who were very helpful in getting us settled on the island. Once we were situated, David and Linda oriented us to the Villa’s amenities and explained how we could be in contact with them if needed. Our time at Mango Bay Villa proved to be exactly what we wanted from our family vacation. We woke each morning with the sun, to the sounds of the water in the front and the howler monkeys in the trees behind us, and to the sights and sounds of parrots who roosted near our bedroom. On our second day at Mango Bay Villa, Linda and David arranged for “the Victors” to pick us up early to explore Parqué Nacional Marino Golfo de Chiriquí. Our first stop was a beautiful beach on an island that felt as if no person had stepped foot onto it in years. We found several wonderful large and intact shells, interesting volcanic rocks and even discovered a massive and natural swing created by a mangrove tree (great for family selfies!). We then traveled out further into open water where “the Victors” followed the pelicans to schools of fish. With “the Victors” as our trustworthy guides, we were able to snorkel offshore from another amazing island, see beautiful white coral amidst a backdrop of a black volcanic floor, startlingly colorful and crazy-lo
