Description

Welcome to “Tierra Oscura” — Your Life Afloat in the Caribbean Starts Here

If you’ve been searching for the kind of property that defies the ordinary, this is it. Currently floating in the calm, jungle-fringed waters of Tierra Oscura, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom floating home offers a fully off-grid, self-contained lifestyle with zero compromise on comfort — and zero land to buy.

That’s right: this isn’t real estate. No land, no permits, no property taxes, and no complications. Just a simple bill of sale and the freedom to float where you please. Once sold, the entire home will be towed to a location of your choice within the Bocas del Toro Archipelago or beyond.

Spanning approximately 2000 sq ft (186 m²), this architecturally unique property is built on three connected floating structures, including a main home, floating dining lounge, and upper sun deck — all designed for both relaxation and entertaining.

3 queen beds, 2 full bathrooms

Living room with furnished bar area and 5 bar stools

Full kitchen with gas stove, two new stainless refrigerators

Washing machine and built-in cabinetry in bedrooms

Separate floating dining platform with grill and table — perfect for sunset dinners

Swings, hammock, swim ladder, and an upper deck with lounge chairs and BBQ

Built on durable concrete/polystyrene floats (no blue barrels)

Dining lounge rests on fiberglass pontoons, connected by custom stainless steel walkway

Off-Grid Systems:

3750 watts of new solar panels, Outback 3000W inverter/charger (48V), and 200AH lead-acid battery bank (upgradeable to lithium)

400-gallon rainwater catchment system with dual pumps

Eco-conscious and designed to minimize environmental impact

This home has been a highly successful Airbnb for 5 years in one of Panama’s most competitive tourist markets. Whether you keep it as a rental, live in it full-time, or reimagine it as a floating bar or restaurant, the potential is as vast as the sea.

Once purchased, the home will be towed to its new destination. No land is included in this sale.


Start your off-grid adventure in comfort — or create the most unforgettable hospitality concept in the Caribbean.
