I was a little apprehensive about flying out to Choco and staying in such a remote place. It seemed like a lot of money to spend to get there etc. But it was totally amazing. The guys running the place are so so lovely, the food is excellent (if at varied times!), the sea is beautiful, wildlife and nature everywhere,... More

the relaxed atmosphere at the humpback turtle is perfect when you want to get away from the big city, and because i live in medellín, i have to do that now and again. the owners weren't there when i was there but the staff was really friendly and helpful. hard not to enjoy yourself when the beach is your frontyard.

Wow, what a location. It will literaly take your breath away when you arrive at the hostal. Located between the beach and the jungle/forest, I have never seen a more beautiful located hostal in my life. Best thing to do in El Valle is to explore and enjoy the area or just go with flow. Everything is easy going and... More

I went with 3 other friends to the Humpback Turtle in November last year. Great to sleep just a few meters from the sea and nobody around. It was great to check the waves from the terrace on the second floor. Lovely vibe and big fun while surfing and our guide prepared a great lunch on a deserted beach with... More
