Other dining options are close by around the point in Old Bank. Chill in the hammock 70’ up on the front deck or in the hammock down by the water while listening to the lapping waves and tropical birds. The hammock out front is on carabiners and can be removed for full, unobstructed use of the circular meditation clearing (we highly recommend doing this during your stay). You can easily snorkel in the clear water directly off the property via the walk-out area. Beautiful coral heads and sea life are abundant on the reef that lines Oceanside (The water is particularly clear in the “Off-Season” months of May, Sept-November. When the waves are down…the Snorkeling is UP!!! REEF BOOTIES & REEF/LOBSTER GLOVES ARE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!) Multiple world class surf breaks on the nearby islands including Carenero Point and Paunch’s are visible from the property. Float your worries away out front while you watch epic sunsets in true paradise-style. AC and powerful fans have been installed inside and on the deck for comfort.

Re-align yourself with nature in this very special place. Everything you really need is either right in front of you or a short boat ride away. ***Our Caretaker, Yeison, is a Basti local who grew up and lives just minutes from Casa Serenity By The Sea. He can help schedule assistance with local knowledge, boat excursions, and carrying luggage. (Please keep this to a minimum. You should come with the mindset of bringing only what YOU can carry to Basti!) Please tip the locals well for their services!***Know where you are going. This is not a place for the weak of heart.

We do have a generator for the worst case scenarios.******This is Old Bank...which is known for its vibrance and love of music. Sometimes they play it quite loudly! We are tucked away on the other side of the hill, but town is pretty close by. Enjoy the rhythms of the Caribbean as they drift across the island!***Also...going to Bastimentos is like stepping into another world...500 years of Afro-Caribbean culture and history resides here that is to be respected and admired. This mixes with the indigenous Naso Tjër Di & Ngäbe-Buglé tribes that have been here for thousands of years longer. The local dialect is Guari-Guari (a mix of Creole English Patois, Spanish, and Ngäbere), and no you won't understand it...but they speak Spanish and English as well. This is a small town with kids and free-range chickens and little lazy island pups roaming about. Terracing walking paths have been carved out of the hillside that the community have used for generations...this may put a spin on the ideology of "private property"...but it also connects the people to the island in a in a very grounded way. Be humble & be kind in this place. ***All 3 Casitas can be rented in tandem to hold larger groups.About pets:No pets allowed.About children:Adults only.About customRules:There is owner storage under the Kind size bed upstairs as well as under the Daybed downstairs.
