Property Description

Casa Plástico – Iconic Off-Grid Eco Home for Sale in Isla Colón, Bocas del Toro

Own a piece of architectural history with Casa Plástico, the flagship residence of the internationally recognized Plastic Bottle Village in Bocas del Toro, Panama. This one-of-a-kind, two-story eco-friendly home was constructed using over 22,000 upcycled plastic bottles collected from local beaches and parks, blending groundbreaking sustainability with stylish, modern comfort.

Located on a sprawling 1,808 m² titled lot within a private jungle community on Isla Colón, this home offers the best of both worlds — serene tropical seclusion just 15 minutes from Bocas Town, and convenient access to the airport, hospital, and pristine beaches. The community can even be accessed by boat via a manmade canal, making it one of the rare Bocas del Toro island properties with both road and water access.

Sustainable Living, Modern Comforts

Casa Plástico is fully off-grid, powered by a top-of-the-line Sol-Ark solar energy system featuring 6 premium lithium batteries, a 15K inverter, and 27,585 watts of solar panels. A dual-tank rainwater catchment and filtration system ensures reliable fresh water year-round. Thoughtful upgrades include new flooring, windows, doors, and energy-efficient air conditioning units.

Indoor-Outdoor Lifestyle

The main level includes two bedrooms, one bathroom, a spacious living area, and a chef’s kitchen with a large prep island and breakfast bar. French doors open to a terrace surrounded by ancient trees and tropical gardens. A laundry area with an eco-inverter washer/dryer adds practicality to paradise.

Upstairs, a vaulted-ceiling studio serves as the primary suite, complete with a handcrafted California King cement bed, double basin sinks, a rainfall shower, and a private enclosed toilet. The upper terrace offers sweeping jungle views — perfect for morning coffee or sunset cocktails.

Expanded Outdoor Living

A newly constructed elevated deck creates an ideal entertaining space, while the lower level serves as a versatile workshop, storage area, or creative studio. Outdoor features include two jungle-immersed terraces, built-in seating, a fire pit, and dining spaces.

Lush Botanical Grounds

The property is a true botanical haven, landscaped with 360-degree gardens and fruit trees including avocado, mango, lime, orange, grapefruit, pineapple, breadfruit, noni, and bananas. Native medicinal and ornamental plants enhance the biodiversity, while a family-friendly playset with swings, a slide, and a mini fort makes it perfect for children.

A Recognized Global Icon

Casa Plástico has been featured by CNN, HuffPost, Vice, and Fast Company as the only upcycled plastic bottle home of its kind in the world. With vacation rental potential ranging from $250–$400 per night, this Bocas del Toro investment property offers both inspiration and strong ROI.
