About TROPICALARTS
RESORT & STUDIOS
Our Story
TropicalArts Resort & Studios was created to give people a new idea of what a vacation can be. This idea is inspired by the owner—a lifelong artist and rock-and-roll musician—who wants to bring fine arts, luxury, and adventure to our tropical island paradise here in Bocas del Toro, Panama. The resort has been open to the public since June 2018 and currently has four oceanfront vacation apartments available for rent that have been thoughtfully designed to include everything you will need during your stay. Resort guests will love the kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and our amazing location on Isla Carenero. Bocas Town is just a $2-$3 water-taxi ride away, which is where you will find a wide variety of restaurants and vibrant nightlife. Our resort is quietly tucked away from it all, but we are still close enough to make everything easily accessible.

THE BEST APARTMENT RENTALS IN BOCAS DEL TORO
Our boutique island resort comes equipped with everything you need. Our rooms are modern, clean, and comfortable. Air conditioning, full kitchens, queen-size beds, and private bathrooms are standard. We have one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and four-bedroom suites, all situated inside a beautiful Caribbean garden. We are an oceanfront resort and are also immersed in the jungle. Our views point to the west, so you can watch the sunset from your balcony in the evening. We have stand-up paddleboards, kayaks, snorkel gear, and an amazing staff ready to assist at all times. We are perfect for couples, families, and large groups, and also have a 200-seat over-the-water event space that often hosts live music and other community events.
The only thing missing at our resort is you!
Our resort is located on the western tip of Isla Carenero and is easily accessible by water taxi from Bocas Town, but far enough away to give you that deserted island feeling. Surfers will love walking the short jungle trail over to Carenero Point or jumping on a water taxi from our private dock to head over to Paunch Reef or Bluff Beach. We are a great option for scuba divers who want to be close to the dive schools but don’t want to stay in Bocas Town. Many dive schools will pick up and drop off from our dock at no extra charge!
There are also a few restaurants and beaches within walking distance, as well as plenty of trails and viewpoints to explore around the island. The rest of Bocas del Toro is at your fingertips, and our staff is ready to assist you every step of the way! Paradise where the jungle meets the warm Caribbean Sea at TropicalArts Resort & Studios!

WHY BOCAS DEL TORO IS YOUR NEXT DREAM VACATION
Bocas del Toro is raw, exotic, and still largely undiscovered and untouched. Travelers and adventure seekers will find endless possibilities down every jungle trail and boat ride. The most popular activities in Bocas del Toro include surfing, scuba diving, ATV rentals, touring the Nivida Bat Cave, hiking, sport fishing, spear fishing, or exploring the archipelago’s many pristine beaches in a local-style panga boat.
Bocas del Toro’s culture is a unique mixture of Latin, Indigenous, Afro-Caribbean, and Western influences that you will not find anywhere else in the world. TropicalArts Resort & Studios will be your home from where you will start your adventures and where you will also find relaxation and escape!
