We just loved our time at Monkey Tree but it is not for everybody. The owner doesn't live there and the caretakers speak no English, so there you are. But if you are even mildly self-sufficient you will really like it here in this manicured-jungle setting. We both speak some Spanish. For about $85 you get a whole house, with... More

This place is awesome! Love the casitas situated in the forest. Very quiet and peaceful. Heather is very kind and accomodating. The place is out of a fantasy book. The casitas are clean and fun to hang out in! At night, the sounds are very pleasant and you can connect with nature.

As you open the large heavy gate at the entrance to the MonkeyTree, you face what one could call Paradise. You wander down a pebbled pathway - and through the glorious hibiscus shrubs and Bird of Paradise plants you see the casitas. These casitas were fabulous! They were spacious, extremely clean and had everything you need for a very relaxing... More

The Monkey Tree is a small accommodation for the person who wants to be close to town but not in it, close to the seaside but not on it and all the amenities of home Heather (the owner) is a wonderful hostess who makes sure your stay is everything you hoped for. The grounds are kept beautifully by an on... More

This place was the highlight of our leg in Bocas, and one of the fondest memories my friend and I have of Panama. Pull the beautiful seashell to unlock the gigantic wood doors to this private property. Imagine your own little home (we had Casita 2 - I believe there are 3, and all were spaced out very nicely), with... More

Never usually write reviews, but think this place deserves a lot of credit. Very good value - we stayed in Casita 2. Great open view looking over the rainforest - watching the monkeys and listening to the nature. Clean inside. Nice location - away from town which can get a bit hectic... Beautiful road to town nice to cycle to... More

We had a cute casita to ourselves. The area is very beautiful and tropical. We didn't see many animals in our area other than the bats that liked sleeping in the grass thatched roof above the bungalow. It's about 2-3 miles outside of town and cab rides are around $3-6 one way. We were really impressed with our balcony, the... More

I stayed at Monkey Tree in Bocas for a week. It was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the beach which is right across the road. It is only a $3 taxi into town which is perfect because it offers an escape from the busy downtown of Bocas Town. It gave me the feel of being in a Swiss... More

Monkey tree casitas exceeded all expectations. We were in Panama for 12 days and stayed here 9. We really wished we stayed here the entire time. It is absolutely beautiful. It is a "modern" tree house amongst a manicured jungle. Ron and Heather are available for anything you may need. It is so peaceful and beautiful you are happy to... More
