About The Owners
James and his wife Kelly are a couple who made their dream a reality!!!
They live in over the water homes in a indigenous community, the lodge sits on a spectacular bay, framed by mountains and consider the Galapagos of the Caribbean with its abundance of wildlife. It offers breath taking views, with painted sunsets and jumping dolphins, here in the islands of Bocas del Toro Archipelago.
James has traveled 120 country's over 40 years, and has some spell bounding exotic travel stories from the North Pole, Madagascar, Tibet, Amazon, Africa, South America, and Antarctica .
Kelly is a Native American of the Acoma Pueblo tribe in New Mexico. After a bout with breast cancer, Kelly came to full remission with natural healing. Her interests have been deeply cultivated in organic foods, a vegetarian approach, essential oils and living a healthy natural lifestyle.
All of these adventures left them wanting to De-Package, De-Wire and De-Stress their lives and offer that to others! So, that is just what we have done here. The absolute simplicity that is what we love, wake up every morning to the deep powerful presence of life ...jungle and sea.
With James’ track record in luxury villa rentals and Kelly's ancestral knowledge of sustainable living, they founded this retreat, in a national park-like setting. Through all that they have achieved, they are now ready to share their journey. With you volunteering here on this serine tranquil island. We are high end luxury retreat not a hostal.
