BOOKING & USAGE CONDITIONS

 

🦜 Macaw Bungalows & Treehouses — Usage Conditions


Cancellation, Refund & Non-Arrival Policy

Life happens — we get it. If you need to cancel, please let us know as soon as possible.

  • 45 days or more before arrival: Full refund for the total amount we received (minus any payment-processor fees).
  • 44 days or fewer before arrival: Payments are non-refundable.

Guests who don’t arrive or cancel after check-in time forfeit the full booking amount. We strongly recommend travel-cancellation insurance for peace of mind.

In the rare event we need to cancel your booking due to unforeseen circumstances (storms, power outages, or anything beyond our control), our liability is limited to a full refund of any payment you’ve made.


Payment Processing Fees

Payments are handled through our secure processor (currently PayPal), which charges a 3.5 % transaction fee. That portion is retained by PayPal and cannot be refunded once charged.


Booking Terms

By booking with Macaw Bungalows & Treehouses, the lead guest agrees to these terms on behalf of the entire party. Please review them before confirming your reservation — and reach out with any questions.


Booking Details

  • The lead guest must be 18 years or older.
  • Treehouses: Rates are based on the total unit, not per person. The price remains the same for one, two, or three guests (depending on the treehouse’s listed capacity).
  • Bungalows: Rates include up to two guests. Additional guests are $33 USD per person, per night.
  • Only registered guests listed on your booking may use the property and its facilities. Outside visitors require prior approval.
  • The person making the reservation is responsible for any cancellation, non-arrival, or damages as outlined below.


Payments

  • Full payment is due at the time of booking to secure your stay.
  • Payments are accepted via PayPal (or other processors listed on our booking page).


Children & Occupancy 

  • Treehouses: Flat rate per unit — the nightly rate is the same for one, two, or three guests (depending on each treehouse’s listed capacity, up to 3–4 guests total).
  • Bungalows: Rates include two guests. A third guest may be added for $33 USD per night, when the unit allows it.
  • We welcome guests 12 years and older.


Respecting Other Guests

Please be mindful of fellow travelers, neighbors, and the serenity of the property. We reserve the right to end a stay without refund if guests create disturbances or disregard these policies.


Check-In & Check-Out

We’ll coordinate arrival times by message to ensure a smooth hand-off and water-taxi connection.

  • Check-in: 3 PM – 7 PM
  • Check-out: by 11 AM

We can often store luggage if you have early arrivals or late departures — just let us know in advance.


WIFI Usage

Complimentary Wi-Fi is provided for casual browsing, email, and streaming. Please avoid heavy downloads or illegal activity. We reserve the right to restrict access if network performance is affected.


Damages & Lost Items

We know accidents happen — just tell us right away so we can minimize damage or replacement costs. The lead guest is responsible for any damage or loss caused by anyone in the booking party.

Replacement costs (examples):

  • Lost keys – $30
  • Shower towel – $30
  • Hand towel – $20
  • Umbrellas $35
  • Bed sheets – $25
  • Duvet/Cover – $50

Lost-and-found items are held for 30 days. We’ll happily mail them back at the guest’s expense.


Smoking

Smoking / Vaping of any kind (including e-cigs or vapes) is NOT permitted inside any bungalow or treehouse.

Smoking / Vaping is allowed only in designated outdoor areas or on private decks — please be courteous of other guests.


Pets (including Service Animals)

We’re unable to accommodate pets or service animals on the property..


Your Privacy

The personal details you provide when booking or contacting us are handled according to our Privacy Policy. Please review it for full details.


General Property Rules

  • Quiet hours begin at 10 PM.
  • No illegal substances or activities.
  • No unregistered outside guests on property.
  • Resort towels must stay on-site (please bring your own for beach trips).
  • Conserve water and electricity whenever possible — island resources are precious.


Treehouses & Property Safety

Staying in the jungle canopy is part of the adventure — and part of the magic — but it also means taking care where you step. Please use caution when walking on stairs, decks, and suspension bridges, especially in wet or dark conditions.

Macaw Bungalows & Treehouses is not liable for injuries or accidents resulting from unsafe behavior, failure to follow posted guidance, or disregard for common-sense safety. Guests assume responsibility for their own wellbeing while exploring the property.


Our Right to Cancel

We reserve the right to cancel a booking without refund if these terms are violated or if guest behavior poses a risk to others or the property.


Questions?

We’re happy to clarify anything about these terms before you book. Contact us anytime at inquiries@macawbungalows.com.

All content, images, and design elements on the Macaw Bungalows & Treehouses website are protected by intellectual-property law. You’re welcome to explore, share links, or quote brief sections if you credit us and drop a quick note to inquiries@macawbungalows.com.

Please don’t copy, scrape, or reuse material for commercial purposes or data collection. This site exists simply to inform and inspire guests about Bocas del Toro and our little corner of paradise—nothing more complicated than that.


Privacy Policy

We value your privacy as much as your peace and quiet while you’re here. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it.


What We Collect

You can browse freely without giving us personal info. If you book a stay, join our mailing list, or reach out through a contact form, we may ask for your name, country, and email or phone number.

We also gather anonymous site statistics (page visits, browser type, etc.) just to understand how guests use the site—never to identify individuals.


How We Use Your Info

We use information solely to:

  • Respond to inquiries and bookings.
  • Improve our guest experience and website.
  • Meet basic administrative or legal requirements.

We never sell or rent guest information.


Sharing Info

We may share limited details with trusted service providers—such as our booking platform or payment processor—strictly to deliver what you’ve requested. They’re required to protect your data and can’t use it for anything else.


Data Retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed to provide services or meet legal obligations, then securely delete it.


Cookies

We use small “cookies” to make browsing smoother. You can adjust your browser settings to decline them if you prefer.


Emails

If you join our newsletter, you’ll receive the occasional update or tropical postcard from us. You can unsubscribe anytime with one click or by emailing us directly.


External Links

We sometimes link to local partners or travel resources. They operate under their own privacy policies, so please review theirs if you click through.


Security

We maintain reasonable security measures to safeguard your information. No system is 100 percent foolproof, but we do our best to keep your data safe.


Your Rights

You can contact us anytime to:

  • Request a copy of any personal data we hold.
  • Ask us to correct or delete your data.
  • Withdraw consent for email communication.
    Simply email inquiries@macawbungalows.com.


Children

Our website is intended for guests 18 and over. We don’t knowingly collect data from minors.


Policy Updates

We occasionally review this policy to stay current with privacy standards. Updates will always appear here, dated below.

Last updated: November 2025


🌴 International & California Guests

If you’re visiting us from the European Economic Area or California, you have the right to know, access, correct, or delete any personal data we hold. We’ll honor those requests promptly—no complicated forms or waiting games. Just email inquiries@macawbungalows.com with “Data Request” in the subject line.

We comply with the spirit of both GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act: you control your personal information, and we use it only to serve you better.


🌺 In Plain Language

We’re a small, hands-on resort—not a data company. We collect only what’s needed to make your stay seamless, keep your information private, and protect the calm that makes this place special.
