“Very basic perfection”
Utterly utterly basic. Barefoot luxury without the luxury. The wooden planks which make the walls of the huts have spaces between them for ventilation. Nothing in the room except a bed (and mosquito net), a shelf and a table. Hammocks on the verandah and the sea is right there - wonderful. You get there by small boat (with outboard motor) from Nuqui - the tourist jetty is a short walk from the airport and the people where you pay your airport tax made sure we were passed into the care of someone who saw us onto the right boat. It took 50 minutes. Wear shorts - there is no jetty and you disembark by stepping off into the water. The kitchen/dining area has a low concrete wall around it and a tin roof. The food is simple but we thought it was delicious (lots of fish - ceviche, stew and grilled). The staff are lovely - friendly and helpful, and take care to speak simple Spanish to help us understand. We enjoyed whale watching from a small boat. All very simple and undeveloped. A perfect place for blissful downtime and going to sleep to the sound of the waves. Utterly utterly wonderful!

“Once you adjust and land in this place , it shows you her paradise”
Pengo and santiago were super positive and high vibes..i felt welcomed..i enjoyed the cleanliness of the beach and sand..and staying here gave me a presence of the afro colombian culture and their hospitality. The food was delicious and the variety was great. The garden is beautiful. The mosquito net with no punctures. Playing football on the beach was a gift

It’s a amazing location on the beach with jungle and mangroves behind! Sopita was a wonderful host and helped me find a way to pay when I didn’t have enough efectivo! Plenty of fresh tuna around for ceviche was another highlight!
