Mountain retreat - Villas for Rent in El Copé, Provincia de Coclé, Panama

Without a doubt, our biggest favorite of the trip! From the moment we arrived, we had a real wow effect. My wife and I are passionate about architecture, and this house is simply exceptional. The kids loved the vastness of the house, the many terraces, and the outdoor spaces. The small path leading to another deck with a spectacular view of the mountains and the jungle is magical. The sunrises and sunsets are unforgettable. The pool, the amenities, and the comfort were perfect; absolutely nothing was missing. Even today, we talk about it, dreaming of one day having a place like this. A huge thank you to Miguel for his warm welcome and kindness. If you love nature, architecture and the unique experience of living in the heart of the jungle (with the mosquitoes that are naturally part of it!), this place is simply exceptional. We would stay again in a flash.

Sans aucun doute notre plus gros coup de cœur du voyage! Dès notre arrivée, nous avons eu un véritable effet wow. Ma conjointe et moi sommes passionnés d'architecture, et cette maison est tout simplement exceptionnelle. Les enfants ont adoré l'immensité de la maison, les nombreuses terrasses et les espaces extérieurs. Le petit sentier menant à un autre deck avec une vue spectaculaire sur les montagnes et la jungle est magique. Les levers et couchers de soleil sont inoubliables. La piscine, les équipements et le confort étaient parfaits, il ne manquait absolument rien. Encore aujourd'hui, nous en parlons en rêvant d'avoir un jour un endroit semblable. Un immense merci à Miguel pour son accueil chaleureux et sa gentillesse. Si vous aimez la nature, l'architecture et l'expérience unique de vivre au cœur de la jungle (avec les moustiques qui en font naturellement partie!), cet endroit est tout simplement exceptionnel. Nous y retournerions sans hésiter.

Excellent place to relax and disconnect. This is the kind of house you can enjoy the entire weekend without ever needing to leave. Having a BBQ or a cup of hot chocolate while enjoying the breathtaking view is truly priceless. If you’re looking for adventure, it’s also a perfect location, as there are plenty of activities and attractions nearby. The house is very comfortable, and the kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with everything you might need. The only thing to keep in mind is to bring mosquito repellent, as you are surrounded by nature. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway.

Our family of five stayed here for four nights. The eco villa is perfect for a group that wants to disconnect and be in a private location deep in the wilderness. Great views. Large property with hiking trails and streams for swimming. The views from the decks are beautiful. We picked fresh mangos and had a handful of fresh eggs from the chickens on the property. The authentic small town of El Cope is 5 minutes up the road. Las Yayas waterfall is just past the town and is worth a visit. If you are looking for a place off the beaten path in Panama, this place is worth it.

A breathtaking view, amazing surroundings with access to the river to cool off. The house is beautiful We had a wonderful time with the family at Priscilla's house. Thank you.

Une vue a coupé le souffle, un environnement incroyable avec un accès à la rivière pour vous rafraîchir. La maison est magnifique Nous avons passé un moment exquis en famille dans la maison de Priscilla. Merci

Beautiful home and view with easy walk to rivers. Highly recommend.

Nous avons passé un merveilleux moment en famille.

Stunningly beautiful Airbnb. The view, the architecture, the outdoor spaces. Priscilla was super prompt and helpful as we had many questions. Be aware the location is very remote and you need a guide for hikes given trails are not well marked and no maps available (plan this in advance). Priscilla also has a great chef who comes to the house (plan this in advance also).

what a stunning property! absolutely beautiful home, and surrounded by beautiful nature! this was such a cool place to stay...the design of the home, the openness to nature, the beautiful landscape...this place is one to remember!! Priscilla was always very quick to respond, providing recommendations for things to do, places to get groceries, people to contact for hikes and food, etc. Miguel onsite was also very helpful..despite not speaking Spanish we made do (translation apps for the win!) and he was also quick to help when we asked. Definitely recommend checking this place out if you appreciate nature and the beauty of Panama

We had an incredible week at Priscilla’s place and we hope to be back again in the future. The place itself is in the most beautiful setting. We loved just sitting in the porch listening to the birds and walking down to the river to swim. We even saw several toucans!! Our favorite thing is how the place is designed so you feel very much part of your surroundings. We also love the new viewpoint deck they have created a short walk from the house. You can easily spend the whole week on the property but we also loved that there were waterfalls nearby and the walks in the national park were also great (you do need a 4x4 to get there). Highly recommend this place!!

Excellent place, highly recommended to connect with nature. I recommend it 100% to spend a few incredible days.

Excelente lugar , full recomendado para conectar con la naturaleza. Lo recomiendo al 100% para pasar unos dias increíbles.

STUNNING PLACE! A one of a kind airbnb. Great view, great communication, great hints on what to do. Beds very comfy, nice bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen. We for sure recommend this place. Photos can’t show the real beauty!

I had the opportunity to stay at Vistas Cope and I must say that the place is exactly as described in its guide: surrounded by nature, with spaces that invite you to disconnect and enjoy the tranquility. The house is fresh, comfortable and well-equipped, with terraces and hammocks perfect for relaxing and gazing at the mountains. One of the most special points was visiting the Las Yayas waterfall, an accessible and very pleasant place to spend the day in contact with water and vegetation. The river that borders the property is also a great attraction: walking along its paths, listening to the sound of the water and diving into its pools make it an unforgettable experience. During my stay I observed toucans, butterflies, monkeys and a great diversity of birds that enrich the experience. Priscilla and Miguel's service was exceptional: always accessible and with the best disposition to provide a solution to any need. The dogs on the farm are very friendly.

Tuve la oportunidad de hospedarme en Vistas Cope y debo decir que el lugar es exactamente tal como se describe en su guía: rodeado de naturaleza, con espacios que invitan a desconectarse y disfrutar de la tranquilidad. La casa es fresca, cómoda y bien equipada, con terrazas y hamacas perfectas para descansar y contemplar las montañas. Uno de los puntos más especiales fue visitar el chorro Las Yayas, un sitio accesible y muy agradable para pasar el día en contacto con el agua y la vegetación. El río que bordea la propiedad también es un gran atractivo: caminar por sus senderos, escuchar el sonido del agua y sumergirse en sus pozas lo convierten en una experiencia inolvidable. Durante mi estancia observé tucanes, mariposas, monos y una gran diversidad de aves que enriquecen la experiencia. La atención de Priscilla y Miguel fue excepcional: siempre accesibles y con la mejor disposición para dar solución a cualquier necesidad. Los perros de la finca, son muy amigables.

We had an amazing stay at this home. It is very private and has the most amazing views  of the Panama mountains. Priscilla recommended Jose as a local guide and I can not recommend him enough, he took us for a great hike to a private waterfall, provided lunch and even picked fresh fruit for my kids along the way. We also used him for the most amazing home cooked meal the following night. If you’re looking for a relaxing peaceful escape in the mountains of Panama, this is your place!

Fantastic! The accommodation was exactly what we were looking for to start our Panama trip. Very authentic surroundings, hardly any tourists and quiet. The house is a dream, huge and the terraces incredible. Miguel showed us the river and we were able to learn a lot from him. Priscilla responded quickly and gave extensive information. Super!We'd come back in a heartbeat.

Traumhaft!die Unterkunft war genau was wir gesucht hatten, um unsere Panamareise zu starten. Sehr authentische Umgebung,kaum Touristen und ruhig. Das Haus ist ein Traum,riesig und die Terrassen unglaublich. Miguel hat uns den Fluss gezeigt und wir konnten viel von ihm erfahren. Priscilla antwortete rasch und gab umfangreiche Infos.super!Wir würden sofort wiederkommen.

Priscilla’s place was an amazing retreat with beautifully serene views taken in from the comfy couches or any of the many decks. Our guided hike with Samuel in Santa Marta was a special and memorable experience.

Wide house in the middle of the mountain. Easy access. The weather does not help but we were able to enjoy it. we share the house between 2 families without a space problem. Very complete kitchen.

Casa amplia en el medio de la montaña. Facil acceso. El clima no ayudo pero pudimos disfrutarla. compartimos la casa entre 2 familias sin problema de espacio. Cocina muy completa.

The house is located in beautiful surroundings. One can feel very close to nature all the time. Unique experience. Dogs are very friendly, we felt very safe having them around.

It was a unique experience in a unique house with a beautiful, peaceful setting. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and had a wonderful “local” tour which is highly recommended!

We had an amazing time at Priscilla’s home. The house itself is absolutely stunning and the views breathtaking. Definitely would recommend this home to anyone looking to relax and unwind in nature. We enjoyed exploring the trails and swimming in the river on the property. The caretaker Miguel was very friendly, made sure to clean the pool every day and prepared a bonfire for us one evening. Our Host also helped us arrange chef services for my boyfriend’s birthday and she made it super easy. We loved the chef and meal he prepared. Overall, fantastic home and we would definitely return!

Absolutely amazing stay at Priscilla’s. The house itself is unreal, the pictures do not do it justice. Most incredible and unique airbnb I’ve stayed in. Lots to do on the property, very quiet and remote and great to unwind. Priscilla herself went absolutely above and beyond in her recommendations and communications— our daughter got sick while we were there and she helped us locate a medical clinic. She also coordinated a 4x4 taxi to take us up to the cloud forest park, and always was super responsive and kind. Highly recommend everything about this Airbnb!

A unique house integrated into nature. The windows are open, you can hear the wind and the animals. Also, everything was clean and there was nothing missing. We did not meet Pricilla in person, but the communication was very straightforward and she also gave many tips.

Ein einzigartiges Haus integriert in die Natur. Die Fenster sind offen, man hört den Wind und die Tiere. Außerdem war alles sauber und es hat an nichts gefehlt. Wir haben Pricilla nicht persönlich kennen gelernt, aber die Kommunikation war sehr unkompliziert und sie hat auch viele Tipps gegeben.

This is one of my favorite AirBnB’s I’ve stayed in! It is an incredible house with amazing views. Our kids had so much fun playing in the river.

Cannot say enough amazing things about this place. The design, the river, the deep quiet and dark skies are all spectacular.  Priscilla was so wonderful, always helping and answering questions.  Highly recommend.  We will definitely be back.  ⭐️⭐️

Very beautiful residence, perfect for 1-2 families. It was even better than the photos, I would highly recommend it. The service with the onsite caretaker Miguel was excellent. Swimming in the river was a nice surprise.

Très belle résidence, parfaite pour 1-2 familles. C'était encore mieux que sur les photos, je recommande fortement. Le service avec le gardien sur place Miguel était excellent. La baignade dans la rivière était une belle surprise.

Can’t say enough good things about this gorgeous home! Beautiful surroundings with everything you need for an amazing stay! You really feel like you are a part of nature and the private trails and access to the river really make this home special for a getaway in nature. Pricilla was so responsive and answered all of our questions before our stay! Would stay here again in a heartbeat!!

We were ultimately unable to take advantage of Priscilla's accommodation because we encountered an unforeseen event but Priscilla was very understanding and allowed us to postpone our visit to her home.

Nous n’avons finalement pas pu profiter du logement de Priscilla car nous avons rencontré un imprévu mais Priscilla a fait preuve de beaucoup de compréhension et nous a permis de postposer notre visite chez elle.

Beautiful property, surrounded by nature and off the beaten path. Great for families looking to escape the city and enjoy nature. House has a greatopen  design and the property provides access to a pristine river.  Area offers plenty of outdoor activity, such as hikes and waterfalls.

Very beautiful place, the Chorro El Tigrero Falls are splendid, 12 minutes by car and a few hours of hiking. The road to the falls is worth the detour with all its landscapes. We were passing through during the national holiday to our surprise. It was great 😊

Tres beau comme endroit, les chutes Chorro El tigrero sont splendides à 12 min de voiture et qqs heures de randonnée. La route pour se rendre aux chute en vaut le détour avec tout ses paysages. Nous avons été de passage durant la fête nationale à notre grande surprise. C’était super 😊

This was absolutely one of our favorite parts of our trip to Panama! Priscilla was so helpful in coordinating a taxi for us to get up to the cloud forest (you definitely need 4wd), and her home is just stunning. It's so clean, there are views everywhere you look, staying there is an experience in and of itself just for the architecture. They've got clearly marked trails all over the property and the little book they have laminated is full of useful information. We even got to experience the little market in town and that was a highlight for us.  We can't say enough good things about our stay here and we hope to come back sometime soon.

Many thanks to Priscilla for allowing us to enjoy this beautiful experience in the heart of nature. The view is just beautiful. Miguel was very responsive.

Merci infiniment à priscilla pour nous avoir permis de vivre cette belle expérience en pleine nature. La vue est juste magnifique. Miguel fut très réactif.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Stay at Priscilla’s Eco Villa! My stay at Priscilla’s eco villa in the mountains of Panama was absolutely incredible! From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the breathtaking views, the peaceful surroundings, and the thoughtfully designed villa that blends perfectly with nature. The villa itself is a true retreat—beautifully built and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Waking up to the sounds of birds and enjoying coffee on the terrace while overlooking the lush greenery was an unforgettable experience. Priscilla is an outstanding host—warm, welcoming, and always available to provide local recommendations or assist with anything needed. Her passion for sustainability and hospitality truly shines through in every detail of the stay. If you’re looking for a tranquil, eco-friendly getaway in the mountains of Panama, this is the perfect place. I can’t wait to return! Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful relaxing stay at  Priscilla's in Vista Cope. We were very impressed by the size and variety of the property as well as the breathtaking views, sometimes with rainbows. We explored the  hiking trails on the large property and used the beautiful places to relax. We enjoyed Vista Cope very much and recommend it to anyone who wants to live in the middle of nature a little differently than in an apartment.

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen erholsamen Aufenthalt bei  Priscilla in Vista Cope. Die Größe und Vielfalt des Grundstücks sowie die atemberaubende Aussicht, manchmal mit Regenbogen, haben uns sehr beeindruckt. Wir haben die  Wanderwege auf dem großen Grundstück erkundet und die schönen Plätze zur Erholung genutzt. Wir haben Vista Cope sehr genossen und empfehlen es allen,  die gern in Mitten von Natur mal etwas anders wohnen wollen als in einem Appartement.

Amazing house, so beautiful and wild. Very up close and personal with nature! fantastic help from hosts too.

We stayed at the house for 2 nights and really enjoyed our stay. The property, house and surroundings are really stunningly beautiful and 100% nature. However, a rental car is mandatory for further activities and purchases. We visited the El Tigre waterfall and had a wonderful experience ☺️ we would definitely recommend the place ❤️

Wir waren 2 Nächte im Haus und haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Das Anwesen, das Haus und die Umgebung sind wirklich atemberaubend schön und 100% Natur. Für weitere Aktivitäten und Einkäufe ist ein Mietwagen aber zwingend erforderlich. Wir haben den Wasserfall El Tigre besucht und hatten eine wunderbare Erfahrung ☺️ wir würden die Unterkunft auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen ❤️

Priscilla's place is a fantastic! Beautifully placed right in the jungle. Great place to relax, unwind, and just listen to the jungle and watch the huge array of wide life. You are spoilt for choice in terms of the many places to eat or relax with outside porch and balconies. Be aware the address on Airbnb is not exact. Im sure this is for security reasons. Be sure to read all instructions from her before setting off. Highly recommended stay! Thanks again Priscilla!

The house and property were amazing. Our high expectations were exceeded. Priscilla was super helpful throughout offering great suggestions to make our stay even better. We can’t imagine coming to back to Panama and not including a stay at Vistas Cope in our plans.

The host was very communicative throughout the entire process. She has access to tour guides, if needed. We opted not to, but it was nice to have her be so responsive. The space is absolutely huge & well maintained. You’re in the middle of nature, so bugs are expected. The space is clean, but not 10/10 clean, again, given the location, expected. Remote location with beautiful surroundings. Make sure to stock up on food for the kitchen! Home comes with two wonderful dogs :’) The caretake Miguel, is also very helpful. Yayas waterfall nearby was amazzzing.

This house was amazing!! The view is breathtaking from every room. One of my favorite Airbnb houses ever!

So glad you enjoyed it! Welcome back any time!

It was an amazing experience. I’ll echo what others have said - you’re in the jungle so expect some critter visits. But in return, you’ll get wildly unparalleled access to untouched nature, unadulterated local life, and serenity in a breathtakingly constructed home. The week we spent writing in Priscilla’s home was filled with moments I’ll treasure forever that couldn’t have been had anywhere else.

I am so glad you enjoyed your time there! Welcome for the next book :)

It's a magical place where we feel embraced by nature, full of peace and beauty wherever you look.

Es un lugar mágico donde nos sentimos abrazados por la naturaleza, lleno de paz y belleza por donde mires.

We loved our stay at Vistas Cope! The location was beautiful- definitely out of the way, but that added to the charm. Priscilla was responsive and helpful, as was Miguel, the on-site caretaker. The surrounding area is also fantastic-- we loved our hike in Omar Torrijas NP with Macedonio! The dogs, Daisy and Bobby, were also such a joy to be around. Would recommend to anyone looking for an off the beaten track getaway!

My husband and I enjoyed this peaceful paradise! The home is a work of art and the views are breathtaking.

Priscilla's place truly is an oasis, offering the perfect retreat to disconnect and immerse yourself in nature. The house is spacious, comfortably accommodating a large family or a group of friends. Surrounded by stunning natural beauty, the property is just a few minutes away from the breathtaking Omar Torrijos National Park, where endless waterfalls await your discovery. This stay is a must for those looking to enjoy tranquility and the great outdoors.

Una casa muy acogedora, la pasamos muy bien.

Traveling with 4 adults and 4 kids, we were excited to stay at Vistas Cope.  Everything about our stay in El Cope exceeded our expectations.  The house is set up beautifully and is located in a fantastic location for exploring.   Miguel, the caretaker,  was very friendly, helpful and available when needed.  Priscilla was an amazing host and was available for questions and recommendations before and during our trip. The view is unbeatable and the location is perfect for those wanting to hike or relax.  Priscilla connected us with an amazing guide (Samuel) for a few hikes.   If you plan to hike El Avion to the plane, a guide is a must and Samuel was fantastic.  Explore the grounds to the river,  there is so much to see and do on the property.  The kids had a blast. This house is perfect for those who are seeking adventure, peace and quiet and for those who are nature lovers. We truly enjoyed our stay and didn't want to leave!  Thank you Priscilla and Miguel.

We spent four extremely relaxing days at Priscilla’s nature retreat. Enjoyed the pool and swims in the river. It was such a treat to get off the beaten path!

Utterly stunning location, we were quite overwhelmed by the house and scenery. I can not stress how beautiful Priscilla’s home is. Everything you might needs is provided for. Priscilla is an excellent host. She gave us all the information we needed to find the house and there’s also lots of info once you arrive on what to see and do. Definitely one of the best homes we have stayed in. If you are looking to escape the hullabaloo of life, there is no better place. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you Priscilla.

I've been meaning to stay at this place for a few years now, so happy that we could finally make it. Lovely breeze coming through the house, which was very welcome as we had some unusually hot few days. Miguel the caretaker was helpful and friendly and the views of course were incredible. We were unlucky to have a power outage just as we arrived, so it would be handy to have some extra tealights especially as we were in the middle of cooking dinner and had just arrived, but it can happen and added to the off the grid feeling. We were also grateful to have an extra crib to use in the living area and a mini baby chair for meals. We particularly enjoyed the pintao hat and coffee making workshop in a nearby community although the adjoining hike to el tigrero was a little longer and harder than expected (with a baby and older person). All in all, a memorable stay, thanks for having us!

This is our second time staying at Vistas Cope. It's as beautiful as the last. Miguel the caretaker is so friendly, and Priscilla the host was lovely as always. We feel right at home in their space.! The view is unbeatable and the location is perfect for those wanting to hike off into Parque Nacional General Omar Torrijos (4x4 required). The best feature of this house is the view & the river. Explore the grounds you'll be pleasantly surprised at what can be found on the property. This house is perfect for those who are seeking adventure, peace and quiet and for those who are nature lovers. Mornings were spent drinking coffee and listening to the nearby Toucans. Didn't see any this time but they were definitely there.

This is a special place surrounded by nature with great privacy. Playground for nature lovers. One of our group is a Zonian and could appreciate the inclusion of of metal and wood salvaged from the former US military bases/buildings. The architecture is intriguing and form/function as well as eco-friendly. Going to the onsite rivers is an added bonus and swimming in river or house pool a definite plus. Hope to be back whenever need more relaxation!

We loved it. After booking, we were given exact instructions about check in and options for things to do in the area. Unfortunately we had a small and low car - more difficult to get to the house and didn't get to most trips around the area, we definitely recommend an SUV for the area. The house is very spacious, super walking around the neighborhood. The amenities are absolutely sufficient.

Ubytování se nám moc líbilo. Po rezervaci jsme dostali přesné pokyny ohledně příjezdu a možností aktivit v okolí. Bohužel jsme měli malé a nízké auto - obtížnější příjezd k domu a nedostali jsme se na většinu výletů po okolí, pro oblast určitě doporučujeme SUV. Dům je velmi prostorný, super procházky po okolí. Vybavení naprosto dostačující.

Amazing house, great if you love being outside. The river spots that are walking are incredible

We loved this place, and we hope to return someday with our friends!

It's beautiful home in a very peaceful setting. The walk down to the river is steep but nothing my six year old couldn't handle. I recommend playing in the river with your family. The town of El Cope is very small and La Fonda restaurant was closed the whole time but we were able to buy basic groceries. Most of our time was spent in nature. The house is comfortable, with nice beds and hot water. Lots of toys for kids. I saw a toucan outside the window and woke up to small monkeys in the trees outside the master bedroom's patio. Overall a great trip.

We loved our stay here. Very relaxing with the breeze that moves throughout the house.  The nearby waterfalls are beautiful and refreshing.  I could retire and live here.

My fourth time in this beautiful house that I already feel part of my life! The atmosphere is amazing, I have visited it at different times of the year and it is always fresh and pleasant, the energy of the place transmits calm and recharges the batteries. This time we explored the surroundings of the village and enjoyed nature a lot. Priscilla is always friendly, flexible and responsive, which is nice to do with people like that.

Mi cuarta vez en esta hermosa casa que ya la siento parte de mi vida! El ambiente es increíble, la he visitado en diferentes épocas del año y siempre es fresca y agradable, la energía del lugar transmite calma y recarga las baterías. Esta vez exploramos un poco los alrededores del pueblo y disfrutamos de la naturaleza un montón. Priscilla siempre amable, flexible y responde súper rápido, que lindo hacer intercambios con personas así.

This house is set in a beautiful and remote location. The views from the house are stunning! The house has a unique layout that worked well for our family. We loved the mini-pool and river access for swimming. Miguel, the caretaker was extremely helpful throughout our stay. Given the remote location, it’s helpful to get groceries before arriving at the house. Since the house is primarily screened, rather than windows, the interior furniture and kitchen appliances are a bit worn. We would, however, not hesitate to stay here again.

It was all that we had hoped for and more. The house is amazing -- being surrounded by mountain and green is already special, and staying here made the experience even more extraordinary. The river is less than 10 minutes down from the house and we really enjoyed it. I'm sure all of us who went will remember my husband's #40 birthday with so much (more) love, thanks to us having a great time here.

Fue todo lo que esperábamos y más. La casa es increíble -- estar rodeados de montaña y verde ya es especial, y alojarnos aquí hizo que la experiencia fuera aún más extraordinaria. El río está a menos de 10 minutos bajando de la casa y lo disfrutamos muchísimo. Estoy segura que todos los que fuimos recordaremos el cumpleaños #40 de mi esposo con muchísimo (más) cariño, gracias a que lo pasamos aquí.

We were a group of 6 to have stayed at this place. This was a magical and unforgettable experience. The house is really a haven of peace and serenity, the rooms are large, bright and numerous. The park (forest, orchard, river) surrounding the house brings a real asset to the house. I highly recommend this place to people wishing to stay in Panama, and with strong affinities with nature, and the protection of our environment. Gregory.

Nous étions un groupe de 6 personnes, à avoir séjourné dans ce lieu. Ce fut une expérience magique et inoubliable. La maison est vraiment un havre de paix et de sérénitude, les pièces sont grandes, lumineuses et nombreuses. Le parc (forêt, verger, rivière) entourant la maison apporte un vrai atout à la maison. Je recommande fortement ce lieu aux personnes désirant séjourner au Panama, et ayant des affinités fortes avec la nature, et la sauvegarde de notre environnement. Grégory.

This place is absolutely breathtaking! We were worried about there not being AC at the place but the large screened windows made the jungle feel like it was inside the house. We spent a solid day down by the river with the kids and enjoyed some swimming & fishing. We had a nice fire under the mango tree. We already miss this place and will defiantly be back at some point! Magical place!

What a location! If you are a family interested in nature this definitely the place to stay. We had some great walks on the property down to the rivers and saw so many different birds, insects and plants (we were lucky enough to see a Rainbow Billed Toucan from the terrace!). Going up to the little village gave us an insight to local life. We also went up to Parque Omar Torrijos which gave us the opportunity to see two oceans in one morning which was amazing.

Pros: -Most beautiful view you can think of. Truly a gem location. Beautiful property and surroundings. Neat house. -Large space, enough room for everyone to spread out. -Peaceful and private. Perfect to unwind from a stay in the city. Easy to get to. -Host was very responsive. Cons: -Wi-Fi is limited, no televisions. -Looks like the pictures, but parts are very run down. Many boards on the decks have huge holes. It's a rainforest, so it's expected the harsh weather but needs maintenance. Most of the furniture is stained. Needs some TLC/deep cleaning. -Bugs. We kept the doors closed but they still got in through the main doors had gaps above/below. We got eaten up pretty good. -We lost electricity one day, AIR BNB refunded 30%, but it's very difficult being so far from anything with no electric/internet and lack of preparations (candles/generator). -Pool greenish, prob from the huge toads. Couldn't use. While I enjoyed the view and stay, the value did not match for what is charged.

Thank you for your feedback, Jennifer. We are changing the wood of the terraces and will take care of cleaning the pool (usually, Miguel always does it, I will ask what happened when you were there). About the bugs and no television, it is on our listing description. We dont have tv, and we said there are insects and an open house. We will also be more prepared for problems with electricity (we already bought new lamps). We now have cable wifi (stronger signal); maybe it was affected by the energy off. I am glad you enjoyed the views and were ok with the Airbnb refund. Kind regards, Priscilla

Greatly designed, large house with lots of privacy, various balconies, multiple bathrooms on large private territory with, among other things, a river, hiking trails. Priscilla communicates very accurately and Miguel (living in the territory) is very helpful with e.g. igniting a large campfire in the evening. Everything is present in the house; some amenities require maintenance (loose faucet e.g. and some bad shelves in the balconies). Special experience to stay in this house!

Geweldig ontworpen, groot huis met veel privacy, diverse balkons, meerdere badkamers op groot eigen grondgebied met o.a. een riviertje, wandelpaden. Priscilla communiceert zeer accuraat en Miguel (wonend op het grondgebied) is erg behulpzaam met bijv het ontsteken van een groot kampvuur in de avond. Alles is aanwezig in het huis; sommige voorzieningen vragen om onderhoud (loszittende kraan bijv. en wat slechte planken in de balkons). Bijzondere ervaring om in dit huis te kunne logeren!

Thank you for your feedback and review, Coen. We are in the process of changing the wood in the terraces. Will check the rest. Thanks and have a great day!

Priscilla’s place was just magical! The layout, the pool, THE VIEW! We spent a day hiking around the gorgeous property swimming in the river, it was truly divine! We loved every minute of our stay and definitely hope to be back someday!

The views were breathtaking!! The house is very big, my family loved it here.

This is truly a very special place. The house is very private and the lot is very big with beautiful walking trails. Will definitely try to come back someday.

Booked this for my father's 70th birthday. It was a group of 10 and they LOVED it! It was quite humid and hot when they arrived but the house was actually very cool even without AC. Great design! The waterfalls nearby are lovely, they all had such a wonderful time!

1000% recommended for nature lovers. The property has its own signposted trails. The design of the property makes for an amazing view from different parts of the house. Plenty of spaces for relaxation on property. It has a space to make a fire pit that if you tell Mr. Miguel (caretaker), he prepares it to turn on at the beginning of the night. I would come back a thousand times.

1000% recomendada para los amantes de la naturaleza. La propiedad tiene sus propios senderos señalizados. El diseño de la propiedad hace que desde distintas partes de la casa tengas una vista increíble. Muchos espacios para relajación en la propiedad. Tiene un espacio para hacer una fogata que si le indicas al Sr Miguel (cuidador), te la prepara para encender al inicio de la noche. Volvería mil veces más.

Muchas gracias por la recomendación! Bienvenidos cuando quieran regresar!

If you love nature and are passionate about architecture, this house is for you, it has an excellent design, with cross ventilation, it does not need air conditioning since it is always fresh and what we like the most is that it is immersed within nature, you can hear the river from the house and you can also go down to swim in the natural pools, it is definitely a place to recharge and disconnect from everything. Priscilla, an excellent host who even let us leave a few hours after our checkout, worth visiting!

Si te encanta la naturaleza y te apasiona la arquitectura, esta casa es para ti, tiene un excelente diseño, con ventilación cruzada, no le hace falta aire acondicionado ya que siempre esta fresca y lo que más nos gusto es que esta sumergida dentro de la naturaleza, se escucha el rio desde la casa y también se puede bajar para nadar en las piscinas naturales, definitivamente es un lugar para recargarse y desconectarse de todo. Priscilla excelente host que hasta nos dejo salir unas horas después de nuestro checkout, vale la pena visitar!

Me alegro mucho que disfrutaron! muchas gracias por compartir sus experiencias. Bienvenidos cuando quieran regresar.

Priscillas place is absolutely incredible and private. Peaceful, tucked in the canopy of trees with many areas to lounge and hang out. The main area has the kitchen and living spaces and multiple balconies, with a small pool in the middle that is breezy and cool, and then the bedrooms in a separate wing. We ended up just relaxing -- couldn't be bothered to leave the beautiful house much, except once for a quick run to the market and a short hike. Lots of birds to watch. Priscilla was super helpful and communicative.  Loved it here.

This home is perfect for those who love to be in nature and surrounded by it. The home is very spacious both inside and out - we were a group of 4 adults, 3 kids). There was so much to do on the property and near by. We really enjoyed the river. An easy walk down the hill & very refreshing to jump in. The kids loved playing foosball and on the property swings. Even if you don’t leave the property to explore hiking trails and waterfalls (though I suggest you do they’re great)  The house itself is great for bird watching and so relaxing. One morning we were greeted by Toucans sitting in the tree above us. Don’t let the idea of bugs keep you away from this property. We look forward to coming back.

This is, without exception, the most incredible property I’ve ever stayed in. The thoughtfulness of the house was unprecedented. Every detail is exquisite and every view is breathtaking. We stayed for three nights and I regret not extending our time there. Do not hesitate to explore this incredibly special Space. We were a group of 8- ranging in age from 2 to 73–and everyone was delighted. Kids loved the pool and exploring the river. We loved drinking wine on the deck. I cannot recommend this space highly enough.

A luxurious stay in the heart of nature! Priscilla made sure we had all the information we needed for a comfortable stay. Miguel on site, showed us their little farmhouse, the children held chicks in their hands and we enjoyed the eggs in the morning. The place is magical and offer breathtaking views! How lucky you enjoyed this little paradise!

Un séjour luxueux en pleine nature! Priscilla s’est assuré que nous ayons toutes les informations nécessaires pour passer un séjour agréable. Miguel sur place, nous a fait visiter leur petite fermette, les enfants ont tenu des poussins dans leur mains et on a profité des oeufs au matin. Les lieux sont magiques et offrent des vues à couper le souffle! Quelle chance d’avoir profité de ce petit paradis!

We had an amazing time. Miguel the property caretaker was very helpful with everything. The location is peaceful and private. A highlight was listening to classical music as the moon rose above the mountains in the distance. Priscilla was extremely helpful and provided excellent customer service before, during and after our stay. We would absolutely stay here again.

Beautiful and peaceful home! The views and the cross breeze was a wonderful setting to relax in. We enjoyed being able to hear the gentle river rapids below from the bedrooms, and the beds and pillows were very comfy. Priscilla was responsive with messaging. Miguel was there to meet us as soon as we arrived on the property.

Very nice house to live in and very well thought out, a unique place.

Maison très agréable a vivre et très bien pensée, un lieu unique.

Priscilla is super attentive, the place is beautiful and spacious, spacious kitchen and diverse terraces are beautiful. I was guided by the description of the address.

Priscilla es súper atenta, el lugar es hermoso y espacioso, cocina amplia y diversas Terrazas, me guié por la descripción de la dirección y llegué directo

Beautiful! We absolutely loved this magical house. The caretaker, Miguel, was incredibly helpful and answered any questions we had. Las YaYas waterfalls were close by, beautiful, and absolutely worth the visit. One recommendation would be to get groceries in Penonome before arriving. While you can get things near-by, the options are more limited. There are amazing local fruit stands in the town of El Cope which are worth visiting. We would have stayed longer and it was a highlight of our trip to Panama. The dogs were friendly and I loved having them patrol the area however they are food motivated and will try and eat any food left out.

The place is amazing, the house is better than what you see in the photos, the rivers around the property are very good, quite private, quiet, the whole environment is very good for family coexistence

El lugar está increíble, la casa es mejor que lo que se ve en fotos, los Ríos alrededor de la propiedad están muy muy buenos, bastante privacidad, tranquilidad, todo el entorno es muy bueno para la convivencia familiar

We really liked the accommodation, it met all our expectations; clean rooms and a full kitchen with all the necessary utensils and condiments. It had all the amenities mentioned in the guidebook and had beautiful guide dogs.

Nos gusto muchísimo el alojamiento, cumplió con todas nuestras expectativas; habitaciones limpias y una cocina completa con todos los utensilios y condimentos necesarios. Contaba con todas las amenidades mencionadas en la guía y tenia unos perritos guías preciosos.

Wow what a stay! We specifically traveled to Panama to stay in Priscilla's beautiful home and it did not disappoint! The layout of the house is stunning - an architectural wonder and dream... and the surrounding lush nature was truly soul-nourishing. The kitchen was very well stocked with many different cooking amenities, which made it very easy to plan out a number of different meals there. We were also very surprised by how well the house was insulated and bugs were never an issue. The only small blip was the lack of strong wifi making it hard to work remotely. My recommendation would be to either get a sim card with data if wifi is a must during your stay or surrender to being disconnected.  Priscilla was so lovely though and helped arrange for a cleaner to come to the house every morning (on a small extra charge). She also recommended a beautiful beach to visit close by (~1.5 hr drive) and sent us some contacts for hiking guides around.

We loved this home! Highlights: - Activities on the property: ample relaxation areas, walking trails, fruit trees, river (insect and animal viewing, climbing boulders and rocks), mountain & bird viewing from the balcony, yoga - Kitchen space: well stocked cooking items - Comfortable temperature because of the breeze - Easy communication with host, on-site caretaker was friendly and helpful Considerations: - No warm water in showers, but helped wake us up and cool us down - Rent 4x4 cars with high ground clearance. We were fine with a compact car and midsize van (party of 12), but it would have been easier with different cars - Difficulty getting wifi, but enabled us to disconnect and engage with family (we had a few members with international data, so it wasn’t an issue). We’re confident Priscilla would have solved the issue if we brought it up. Thank you, Priscilla and Miguel, for providing a home away from home. As many people have said, it really was difficult to leave ❤️

Excellent location, views, and architecture. Perfect for a large family with children.

Excelente ubicacion, vistas y arquitectura. Perfecto para una familia grande y con niños.

The location is remote and wouldn't recommend arriving at dark, but otherwise an amazing opportunity to enjoy a simpler side of Panama. We had 10 people (4 adults, 6 kids) and everyone had plenty of space. The river was the highlight. Lots of great opportunities to swim, find rocks and explore. Miguel the onsite caretaker was very friendly and helpful. El Cope was very welcoming and we enjoyed the bakery (and the coffee they sold) very much! Jump on the chance to stay at this unique find.

beautiful and spacious house! priscilla is responsive and will answer your questions

maison magnifique et spacieuse ! priscilla est réactive et répondra à vos question

Great house, great views, beautiful trails and swimming in the river. We enjoyed every bit of the house and its surroundings. We really recommend it to you! We stayed there with our three teenagers.

This place is truly a hidden gem. It is much bigger and better than what it looks in the pictures. Level of communication made me felt like I was visiting a friend. Priscilla showed genuine care about our safe arrival. She was proactive and tried her best to ensure we enjoyed our stay. This place is so unique and has completely different feel. My kids also enjoyed their time with the 3 lovely dogs. While we didn't speak Spanish, Miguel (caretaker) did an amazing job being available. You have to keep in mind that place is in the woods, so you don't get the best internet service here. Also you need to keep the doors closed at nights to avoid bugs and bats get in. Also, the enterence to the house could be difficult if there is rain and you don't have a bigger vehicle. I would strongly recommend staying here if you are ever looking for the place in El cope and want to enjoy the valley.

We had a great time at this very well designed house which is located in a gorgeous environment.  The house is very spacious and we felt extremely comfortable.  We loved going down to the river with the kids to swim and relax.  With the company of Miguel we felt always safe. Priscilla is a wonderful host, always responding quickly and being very helpful in everything. We would highly recommend the place and would love to go back there one day.

We stayed here with my family, it was my Wife and I and our two boys, ages 5 and 3. This house is great, and Priscilla and Miguel (the on-site caretaker) are truly amazing.  It is a stunning home, with open concepts and open air (screened in to keep the critters out). It has beautiful architecture and well maintained gardens. Our favorite parts were chilling in the pool, swimming in the river, jungle hikes, playing with Miguel’s dogs (Rosie, Dixie, and Bovi) and his chickens (which gave us fresh eggs everyday) oh and his pet bunnies. The beds are clean and comfortable. The kitchen is nice and has what you need. The house is really big and could accommodate a lot more people easily. Miguel took really good care of us. We visited the nearby small town to get some basic groceries, and went to the nearby waterfalls las yayas which were amazing!!! This house really is IN THE JUNGLE, so be prepared to see and hear some bugs and animals! All in all we loved our experience here!

The El Cope house is amazing. Our group of 3 kids and 4 adults had plenty of space and lots of adventures to go on, both on the property and in the area. Priscilla recommended guides, tours, and waterfall adventures for the kids. Make sure you keep your food stored away to keep it safe from critters!

Fabulous house, an ode to serenity! A peaceful and wholesome experience. Loved bathing in the river too! Thank you Priscilla for your kindness and generosity.

I want to buy this property!!! It’s super special…

❤️❤️ thank you ❤️❤️ come back whenever you want!

Pricilla is an excellent host. Since we don't speak Spanish, you have helped with everything we needed. The house is fantastically beautiful and we had a great time there! We will be happy to come back!

Pricilla eine hervorragende Gastgeberin. Da wir kein Spanish sprechen hat Sie und geholfen bei allem was wir brauchten. Das Haus ist traumhaft schön und wir hatten eine tolle Zeit dort! Wir kommen gerne wieder!

An amazing experience, as if you were in a tree house with all the urban amenities. We had a great time, 100% recommended.

Una experiencia increíble, como si estuvieras en una casa en el árbol pero con todas las comodidades urbanas. La pasamos excelente, recomendada 100 %.
