Short Vacation Stay

Overall we had a great stay! Dawn and Aly were extremely helpful with getting us acquainted with Santa Catalina and recommending an English tour for Coiba Island. The pool and space was great when we got there and was close to a restaurant with amazing food just down the road. Getting to this location was a little out of the way with uneven paved roads, but well worth it once we arrived!

Perfect spot for our family!

We were looking for a place that could accommodate our family of five for a visit to Coiba. Dawn and Aly’s casita was perfect. It’s a 25 or so minute drive into Santa Catalina but you’re a very short walk to the local beach and the hotel next door is a great spot to grab a bite or drinks. Communication was super easy and very quick responses. The villa was just as described, very private, and we had no problems at all. We would stay there again if we return to the area.

A few days in paradise

Wish we booked a longer stay. Hosts were super. Accomodation was perfect nestled in amongst trees. Abundance of parrots and so many other birds to share a mornings and evenings with. Private pool to relax in. Short walk to the beach. We had fresh caught fish on the grill for dinner. Wonderful time, exactly what we were looking. Thanks

Welcoming relaxing environment

Hosts Aly and Dawn are very welcoming, always available to answer questions and give great advice on the area things to do. Nice clean pool to enjoy lounging beside. Furnished well throughout with very comfortable inside, outside furniture and beds that ensure you have a great rest. Close walking access to the beach where you can watch locals pick clams, enjoy a meal at the beach restaurant or just go for a long walk. Lots of parrots and other birds to watch if you choose. Best of luck in your venture Dawn and Aly. It was a pleasure meeting you and staying in your Casa.

About the host

Hosted by Dawn Daya

We are a retired couple from Vancouver, Canada, who travelled extensively throughout Central America and finally found our Paradise in Santa Catalina, Panama. With both our back grounds coming from the hospitality industry, it would be the ideal place to build a Casita (villa) and share this place with others.

Why they chose this property

On our two acres, which is a part of 60 hectare parcel, we are secluded and surrounded by coconut trees, palm trees, old growth trees, which provide food and shelter for our abundance of wildlife.

What makes this property unique

What makes our property unique, is the privacy, the beautiful scenery, secluded beach (we can walk for hours down the beach and not see a sole), but still close to town.
