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.

If you ever wanted to get away from it all this is
Had an amazing time at the cottage for 7 days
It was very comfortable for three adults
Shawn made all of the arrangements and it all went smoothly and exactly as he said it would. If he said someone would be there to take us along to the next step of our adventure. They were there on usually early in fact
Roberto in Panama was lovely and took us on a private tour of the Canal area to see the monkeys
Jose greeted us on arrival in David and hauled us to a farmers market and the grocery store for provisions patiently waiting at the meat counter to order for us in Spanish
As for the island itself Victor is wonderful and there to help you in any way you may possibly need.
We took several trips with Victor had a wonderful time. Even after we hired a boat for the day from Captain Daniel to go farther out the only fish we caught was when we were with Victor he even cleaned our catch for us
Bring a hat and some strong sunscreen
Cannot wait to go back again

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!

Looking for Seclusion?
This is a gem of a property... it's private, natural and beautiful!
The house is a magnificent contrast of almost Polynesian style thatched A-frame with floor to ceiling aluminum framed glass. As odd as it may sound, this is the perfect house for the property because from afar it blends into the landscape and from inside as you can stare out at nature bouncing all around you.
The only caveat I would give in recommending this property is that it's on an island, a mile from shore and another 20 minutes from amenities so being prepared for your stay is essential. If that is not daunting and like us was what we were looking for, then this is the perfect place.

Luxurious Adventure
My time at Mango Bay (December 2017) was amazing. Shawn and his team have a slice of heaven that they graciously share, along with the expertise to make living in your own island palace as relaxing or exciting as you want it. I was treated with honesty, respect, and friendliness before, during, and after my visit. Book with confidence!
The property is gorgeous. The bedrooms and bathrooms are all separate from the kitchen and living room area; each structure is floor-to-ceiling glass covered by a beautiful thatch roof. There are ample screens in place and ceiling fans. Despite 85F/30C days I never once felt the need to turn on the air conditioning. There are several shaded sitting areas outside as well and while I came prepared with bug spray I never once used it. Shawn has a gas range and plenty of cookware, as well as a propane grill for your fresh catches.
Despite its remote location, getting to the island is a breeze. The airport at David is very small and easy to navigate. Shawn’s friend was there on time and helped me manage a baggage issue with the airline, as I am far from fluent in Spanish. From there we went to a well-stocked and surprisingly affordable grocery store for supplies. I recommend picking up a small container of salt, as it is prone to clumping pretty quickly and the stuff at the house was close to unusable. After loading up we met the property manager at the boat landing. He had a cooler large enough for all my groceries, as well as plastic bags to protect my luggage from the rain. The ride to the house, about fifteen or twenty minutes by starlight, went without an issue. The water was as calm as a lake despite the rainstorm. The property manager is, without question, one of the nicest guys I have ever met. He shared his knowledge of the island and the waters around it and even made an afternoon fishing trip out of our necessary trip back to the mainland to get my lost bag.
Shawn can help arrange deep sea fishing charters at prices that blow the competition away. Despite very little talent with a rod and reel I came away with a gigantic mahi-mahi to eat, several to give away, and the fun of catching and releasing other gamefish. I actually booked an additional trip with Shawn’s recommended charter and had just as great a time the second day. Shawn can also help you arrange a tour of Panama City if you wish, or get you in touch with folks in Boquete if mountains are your thing.

Tropical paradise (a true adventure!)
We have traveled extensively in Central and South America. Isla de Muertos is by far one of the most interesting places we've visited. The island is remote, yet easy to reach thanks to Shaun's excellent network of contacts in Panama. It is a tropical rain forest with amazing vegetation and animals. My 3 high school boys had a phenomenal time spotting monkeys, birds, lizards and frogs. The changing sounds of the jungle are amazing.
The house is beautiful and very comfortable. Several islands with incredibly beautiful beaches can be
reached easily from the island. Victor is a wonderful host/boat driver. And be sure to book a deep fishing excursion with Daniel. We caught and ate Albacore tuna on the same day.
This is a place to return to! (and bring a book to read on the hammock)
My kids have already asked to go back!

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!

Incredible and Amazing!!!!!!!
This property is truly amazing!!!! From the beautiful views on the boat ride to the property, the scenery is incredible! The villa has the most wonderful view and the sunrises are fabulous! The stars are so beautiful at night. On most vacations, it takes a few days to unwind. Not here, it is so quiet and peaceful, relaxation comes quickly. The kitchen has all the amenities you could want and then some. Nothing like you would expect being off the grid. The beds were so very comfortable, great shower, perfect beach etc. Victor is wonderful and extremely helpful! Shawn was so great to work with. Answered any questions we might have, walked us through certain features so that we were familiar, etc. There is a small cottage as well which has recently been renovated. It is right next to the water and the dock. There is almost always a cooling breeze that goes by in both locations.
This is really a wonderful place to spend a holiday!!!!!!

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.

Gorgeous property on a secluded island
The picture doesn't do this house justice, the actual property is stunning! It's almost like you walked into something from a design magazine. The Smiths (caretakers) and Victor (boat driver) were both super welcoming and helpful. We took day trips to different islands including Marine Park and Secas Islands and did some swimming and snorkeling. Victor also caught us some fresh fish that we grilled for dinner. Only thing I have to recommend for future guests is please plan out what you need (supplies, food etc.), because there is no stores around just all nature.

Excelent place to enjoy the tropical islands of the Gulf of Chiriqui and catch some fish
I found this unique house located at Isla Muertos t be very convenient for my fishing trips, since We usually leave from mainland, close to David and head out to the islands of the Gulf of Chiriqui to catch our dinner. I had a group of 6 fishermen staying at the house for 10 days and everything was as expected for a fishing trip. House was clean and well equipped, including generator, air conditioning and a full kitchen. Fresh water can be a problem when the rain is poor, but was not an issue as the manager could store enough for showers and so on. The air conditioners help to cool down the house and it was very nice to go back after a full fishing day and have a cool house to relax and enjoy the sunset. Internet was good and kept us connected with our families. Very nice place to explore the Paridas Islands and the mangroves around the Boca Chica and Boca Brava area.

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

Beautiful home amidst amazing scenery
My family of seven had an amazing vacation at Mango Bay. We were met at the airport in the city David by Jose who transported us and our groceries (Jose purchased groceries for us in advance so we could get to the island asap) to the boat landing. Captain Victor, picked us up with two boats at the landing, and we had our first exciting boat ride. The islands are so beautiful. Caretakers David and Linda met us at Mango Bay, gave us a tour of the villa, and we got settled in. Each day was an adventure.
One day, David & Linda setup a tent and chairs for us on the beach on Isla Boca Brava! Victor and his son, Brian, transported us there and back. We played in the ocean. Hunted for shells. We found abundant sand dollars! Make sure to plan activities early in the day! Then you can rest in the afternoon at the way cool Mango Bay! And prepare wonderful meals. We used the grill for most of our cooking. The solar system is way cool too! It is a good thing to be off the grid. We worked carefully with David and Linda on timing of AC usage, so we could minimize the use of the backup generator. One afternoon Victor cut down fresh coconuts for us all, and he skillfully used his machete to prepare them. We were able to drink the coconut water!
Another day, Captain Daniel took us way out in the ocean to many islands! Daniel knows the people here. He is intuitive about what we would like to experience. With him we went to great island get aways. We saw crocodiles, sting rays, 100 year old trees, eco lodges, hidden beaches, dolphins, pelicans, two places where he has lived, his dear friends... We were able to snorkel, catch big fish, eat awesome watermelon, and experience way out there ocean and island stuff! Daniel also helped us with the boat ride back to Pedregal, which is close to the city of David. The fish that we caught with Daniel provided two wonderful evening meals.
One day we just chilled at the Mango Bay Villas. Enjoyed the cool breeze, the warm sun, the high and low tides, the relaxing shaded decks, the magical howler monkeys that became our good mysterious friends and guardians through the week.
We added a trip to Boquete on the end of our adventure. Jose was the perfect driver and guide to Boquete, and back to the David Airport.
Shawn helped us connect with wonderful dear people who guided us in Panama
City, in the city of David, out at Mango Bay, and in Boquete.
We learned unexpected things from the people and nature every day!

A Unique Travel Adventure
We just came back from Panama and we had a fabulous getaway at this villa. It is remote, quiet and a true taste of what Panama is really about. The owner Shawn was extremely informative. Everything was organized from the time we landed in David airport. Our diver who speaks English picked us up and drove us to the grocery store to get our necessities for the visit. We then drove to Pedegral Marina where we met the boat captain who drove us through the channels surrounded by mangroves to the Villa. We were welcomed by the house keepers who were very helpful showing us the villa and all the features of the property.
The place is tastefully decorated and the views of the bay and mountains are incredible. The glass walls and thatched roof of the villa offer an amazing tropical experience inside and out. The Villa is well equipped with all of the amenities including a full kitchen, large en-suite with an amazing outdoor shower, Internet and TV. The deck is quite large and was great for dining outdoors. We used the boat services for a full day going to several beaches within the marine park(nice snorkeling) as well as isla Palenque where we saw a lot of monkeys. We went to lunch with our boat captain at the Boca Brava Hotel restaurant where we found affordable and good food. The ridge trail hike in the jungle on the island is quite the experience!
I recommend this beautiful villa and location to anyone looking to experience the nature and natural beauty of this amazing country and live the natural experience.

3 Nights Wasn't Enough!
We stayed at the villa for 3 nights and it was nothing short of an adventure-filled, exciting visit. The villa itself is beautiful, nestled in pristine rainforest and surrounded by a wide variety of tropical fruit trees. For adventure seekers like us, there was no shortage of activity. We spent a day and a half exploring the island by foot. We also spent a day out on the boat exploring the Chiriqui marine park, which is a quick ride away, where we practically had the whole ocean to ourselves. We were surprised by how few people we came across in such a beautiful place.
Besides all the activities away from the villa, we also enjoyed the accommodations. The villa is comfortable and well-appointed. The kitchen is well-equipped for any cooking - there's no take out there! The deck around the villa has a gorgeous view out to sunrise. There is a small beach just down the hill near the dock for a quick dip after a sweaty day in the jungle. The bay is very quiet, with only the occasional fishing boat passing by. The local wildlife is very entertaining too!
