Punta Brava

We stayed at Punta Brava for 5 days. This place is magical. We went out of season and almost had the place for ourselves. All the staff were really helpful. Always ready to help with anything.
Food was delicious, freshly cooked by Julie. All our activities were great and we had a magical time. It's a place that is quite isolated but that is the beauty of it. You will need a boat to get around but the local captain is always at hand to take you places. Always on time, efficient and friendly.
We did some walks in the forest with Leo who was knowledgeable, very friendly and helpful. Altogether we had a great time and I will definitely recommend this place.
Don't expect 5 star luxury but you will have everything you need to be comfortable and in tune with nature. Almost a private beach nearby.
We watched the release of turtles, which I will never forget. I hope most of them survived once they reached the vastness of the pacific ocean!

Stunning place. The architecture, the confort, the almost private beautiful beach, the food, the staff. No word or photo can pay enough tribute this place. We loved the activities we did, discovering the jungle with our guide Leo. Amazing nature and landscape. We did see whales for breakfast!
Thanks punta brava! We will be back.

Punta Brava is one of these few places that feel like paradise on Earth. The vistas are amazing, every single minute is pure peace and quiet, the sunsets are magnificent, the food is heavenly, and it's nothing but nature all around you, all the time. Whether you're resting on a hammock, reading on the deck, getting lost in the jungle, or body surfing on the warm Southern Pacific ocean, know that this place is just nothing short of magical. Pedro is a great guide, and Juliet is an incredible cook. Alejandro, the manager, was kind enough to allow us to bring an extra birding guide at no cost. Greatly appreciated. Highly recommended. I hope to visit again soon. <3

This place is the perfect spot to stay if you're looking to disconnect. I've been here twice and had an amazing time both trips. This last trip we got to see the whales up close too and even multiple times right from our balcony. Highly recommend!

One of the best places I have been on earth. Remote, nature, unbelievable beautifull in every aspect : lodging, staff, food besides the environment. Trips you can make to selba, whales, rivers and surfing! Life showed me the secrets of our planet. Miss this place and experience already. Life changing 🧡

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.
