Boliger ved stranden i Capurganá

The family that run the Cabana are the best. Very helpful and relaxed and they do washing too! They also generously let us pay via PayPal because there is no cash machine in the village and we were low on cash. ( We are stupid British tourists). They have the most adorable dog and cats! The breakfast pizza we had was the best breakfast we've had from any hostel we have stayed in this trip! I don't usually write reviews regularly but because the family went above and beyond for us. :) Thank you! Bryn and Emma x

The owner was amazing!! He brought us coffee, was super smiley and made us feel super at home. The rooms were perfect and it was such a good price!

Portal del Sol is a hidden jewel! It is run by the most adorable couple, Carlos and Maricela, who were very helpful, attentive to the needs of their guests, and kind. Portal del Sol is tucked away in a lush garden setting and is located adjacent to the Sapzurro trailhead. It is quiet and peaceful, and an easy 10 minute walk to the center of Capurgana and to the beach. When I first arrived, Carlos gave me a tour of Capurgana, pointing out places to eat, swim, shop and how to find my way back to Portal del Sol. Hint! Look for the blue wall. My room was clean and simple with everything a person needs to be comfortable - bed, fan, shower and toilet. Now let’s talk about the breakfasts. THE BREAKFASTS!!! They were incredible, with something different and unique every day, including fresh juice from one of Carlos and Maricela’s many fruit trees. Breakfast often included a traditional Colombian dish, too. So good and filling, you won’t need to eat again until dinnertime. And you get to enjoy your breakfast in their lovely garden - the perfect way to start your day! Portal del Sol is a small establishment, with just 3 (or maybe 4 ) cabins. Everything was well-cared for, tidy and super safe. I stayed at Portal del Sol six nights and could have easily stayed much longer because it was so comfortable and because of the hospitality of Carlos and Maricela.

The location is good - on the outskirts of Capurgana (it can get noisy at night closer to the center), close to jungle. The kitchen is a bit basic but ok. The terrace with hammocks is nice.

I recently stayed at a wonderful hostel located in a peaceful area with both a beach and a jungle nearby. The location was perfect for a relaxing getaway, offering the best of nature's beauty. The hostel itself was clean and comfortable, with cozy rooms that had stunning views of the ocean and the lush greenery. The sound of the waves and the jungle wildlife created a soothing atmosphere that was incredibly refreshing. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any needs or provide recommendations for local activities. There were plenty of options for adventure, including beach activities and jungle hikes, which made the stay even more enjoyable. Overall, this hostel is a hidden gem for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle and immerse themselves in nature. Highly recommended!

If you’re looking at reviews like crazy on where to stay in Carpugana- I got you. We stayed at 3 different places over our week here and John’s place here is the absolute best by a mile. The challenge with Staying anywhere in the center is how much these guys love to blast their music and party - especially on the weekends- so you can’t really find a spot that will guaranteed be quiet. Second are the power blackouts they get- while we were there at 5 AM every day the power went out. Good places outside of the centro will usually have a solar backup to power something like a fan if the power goes out. John not only has a phenomenal fan in the rooms which will Run on solar, he has air conditioning that you can run any time the main power is on (which for us was any time except 5 am- where the fan could then be used instead). Private room with air con, awesome fan backup, QUIET, and really great breakfasts and dinners cooked by a family across the street AND an unreal pool. I’m telling you- this is your spot.

Marco and Alicia were exceptionally wonderful hosts. Marco walked in twice to show us the way to different places and Alicia was just a delight. So lovely. Especially enjoyed their lovely food and having the variety in the breakfasts was such a welcome change . Everything was super clean too .
