Important Information
The lodge is located in el Valle, Chocó—a remote Pacific region only accessible by plane (typically from Medellín).
This is a place for adventure and disconnection, not luxury tourism. A perfect opportunity to unplug, relax, and connect with nature.
Expect frequent rain, high humidity, and lush surroundings year-round. Rain is part of the experience—it keeps the jungle alive and vibrant.
Whale watching (July–October), turtle nesting, birdwatching, and jungle treks are unforgettable experiences—but wildlife sightings are not guaranteed and depend on the season and luck.
Flights to Bahía Solano can fill up quickly, especially in whale season (July–October).
It’s recommended to book both flights and the lodge well in advance.
The ecolodge offers a peaceful, rustic atmosphere focused on sustainability and nature. No A/C, no screens—just the sound of the ocean, the jungle, and time to reflect or reconnect.
Some tours involve hikes through humid forests, muddy terrain, or boat rides. Basic physical fitness is important, and guests should wear appropriate shoes and be ready for adventure.
