Spectacular jungle lodge

Reviewed By stork90

We've stayed in very rustic accommodations in jungle lodges in Peru, and this felt like luxury! Yes, there is mosquito netting over the bed (but then you slept very comfortably knowing you were safe from the little biters), and only cold water showers, but they were so refreshing after hiking or swimming, and only shocking on the morning we had to leave. We stayed in the separate cabin and loved all the space. Every evening, staff came by and let down the wall tarps in case it rained in the night, and the mosquito netting was set up for us, well before sundown. In the morning, the rain tarps were rolled back up, and our room was freshened while we were out on excursions. We totally agree with a previous poster who said the Aruscicito hike/canoe trip was the best. We saw the most wildlife/birds on this one compared to any other outing. I was very happily surprised at the lack of mosquitos! I'm usually a magnet for them, and I even stopped wearing repellent to dinner and never got bitten. (WARNING - I was eaten up in the Nuqui "airport" while waiting for our plane back to Medellin.) All of the staff were reserved, but friendly and helpful. The food is amazingly good for the location, and room rates include 3 meals a day. Alejandro is an excellent host. He was fascinating to visit with, speaks English very well, and was always checking in with us concerning activities or seeing if we needed anything. He even gave us some money back after we settled our bill, because our boat back to Nuqui was shared with several other guests, rather than just the two of us. No hesitation at all to recommend Punta Brava as a fantastic and comfortable place to experience the Pacific coast and jungle of Colombia. BTW, we are 60 and 61 y/o.

A great vacation.

Reviewed By AlanK130

My brother and I arrived for a 4 day fishing package and from the minute we arrived everything was great. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. The rooms were nice with plenty of space and equipped with floor fans and AC. If you are the type that needs a tv or constant wifi then probably stay somewhere else. If you want a very enjoyable and relaxing vacation with the only noise being the waves and the roosters then by all means visit this place. The hotel and grounds are beautiful. The scenery is amazing. We would watch the schools of sardines if the beach while eating breakfast before loading on the boat. Whale sharks swimming just off the beach.

Wonderful days in Bahia Solano

It was my first time at Tarima Del Colibrí Hotel and I can say is the most beautiful place, it has a really nice entrance surrounded by trees and flowers that creates a magic atmosphere. Then you find the dining room and her special chef Elaine who cooked for us delicious dishes not only fish but also vegetarian options and yummy desserts. The cottages are comfortable, made in wood , with their own bathrooms and each bed has a nest to mosquito protection One of the best things is the location, is in front of the beach. This hotel not only offers really good accommodations but also good plans to do in Bahia Solano; Luisa and Lucas theirs owners are really kind people and are ready to help you and make feel you like home I do recommend this magic place !!

El Amargal Reserva Natural

A beautiful place to relax and enjoy nature

Reviewed By Popko W

I stayed in El Amargal to relax and to bird watch. The hosts were super friendly and helpful, and offered several options for activities. We did a birding trip combined with a canoe trip on the local river. Very, very beautiful. As a bird watcher, I was also quite impressed. The area is not as well known as several other in this region, and I think there is still plenty to discover. To discover the woods behind the resort, you do need a guide, or stay at a decent distance to the house. I also saw nice species staying on the resort area itself. The accommodation was comfortable, but rustic; don't expect a city hotel. Beds are comfortable. The (bed)room is quite small, but limited storage space, but being here, you won't spend much time inside! Outside is plenty of space to hang about and there are plenty of hammocks around. The food in El Amargal was really good! (fresh fruit juices, fresh fish, arroz con coco, etc.). Apart from the 'regular' thing, Nicole is putting a lot of effort in a creative menu, which is great. And there's good coffee as well. Drinks (beers) and cocktails can be obtained. Note however that you may have to inform the hosts in time, because there's no supermarket next door. The place is quite isolated from the village and a distance from Nuqui: but this is also the attraction of El Amargal. You're really away from everything. That said: there was internet available, although not 24/7 (which I thought was great). All in all, an unforgettable experience!
