Ecohotel Luzul | Hotel in Arusi, Choco

Positive: What I loved most about the property was how beautifully it connected you with nature while still feeling incredibly warm and comfortable. LUZUL has a very special energy peaceful, authentic, intimate, and full of love. It never felt like a typical hotel; it truly felt like a home away from home. The natural beauty, the peaceful surroundings, the attention to detail, and especially the warmth of Natalia, and the entire staff made the property unforgettable. Every space felt thoughtfully cared for, and there was a genuine sense of connection and hospitality.

Positive: it was a beautiful place with lovely staff. the general vibe was nice and the food was really delicious

Negative: it was madly expensive. we received a ludicrous bill because we had children in our room which we thought had been agreed beforehand. we did get it discounted but I still wasn't really happy with it in the end. the whole thing seemed to be run by a bunch of people in Medellin, bossing around the staff on the ground which was massively disappointing.

Positive: I had an incredible stay at Luzul. From the moment I arrived I was treated like family. Juanda is a fantastic host and the entire team, including the staff and the guides, took good care of me. The food was delicious!!!. The hotel is beautiful and completely surrounded by nature. You really get to experience everything: the animals, the rain, the sun, the jungle, the sound of the sea. This place is perfect for people who can embrace weather unpredictability, wild animals and occasional changes of plans. Rain can be very frequent, but that is part of the beauty of the experience, so make sure to pack good rain gear. It was just amazing and truly one of the most special places I have visited. Highly recommended.

Positive: The Property Is Beautiful, eco sustainable , made With natural Materials and Beautiful Design. It’s Well located In Front Of The Beach. The Host Is Amazing and The Stuff Are Great

Positive: The hotel’s location is truly unique and peaceful, with a beautiful beach. Definitely a highlight of our trip! The architecture of the houses is stunning, and the social atmosphere makes it easy to meet and connect with other guests. The food was very good. We would definitely recommend this place to everyone :)!

Negative: The food is great. It would have been nice to have a dessert or something sweet sometimes :)

Positive: The best place we stayed at in Colombia!! It’s such a magical place and I would recommend it to all my friends or family visiting Nuquí. The rooms were spacious and made you feel part of nature. Deconnecting was never so easy. The food that was prepared for us was fresh and so tasty. The staff was incredible, we also met the owner and we loved the story of how he started the hotel. We were able to do some nice activities such as whale watching which was just incredible :-) At Luzul you really feel welcome!

Negative: Nothing for me :-)

Positive: The rooms and grounds are beautiful. The owner and staff took amazing personalized care of me, especially since the day I showed up I was unwell.

Positive: My recent trip to Nuqui was a journey into the heart of Colombia's wild Pacific coast, a perfect blend of adventure and eco-discovery. Seeking a truly immersive experience, I found myself enveloped in the raw, untamed beauty of this remote paradise. From the moment I stepped off the boat, I knew I was in for something special. I had the pleasure of staying at a rustic eco-lodge hosted by the wonderful Juancho. The simplicity of the accommodations perfectly complemented the natural surroundings. The food was a true delight. Every day, I enjoyed freshly caught fish prepared with local flair, accompanied by delicious traditional dishes. It was a genuine taste of the region. Getting to Nuqui was an adventure in itself. The journey involved two flights and a scenic one-hour boat trip. While the travel was a bit lengthy, it only added to the feeling of escaping to a truly remote destination. Be prepared for potentially bumpy boat rides and pack accordingly! The remoteness of Nuqui was its most captivating feature. It offered a level of peace and privacy that is rare to find. The lack of crowds allowed for a deep connection with nature. It was a place to truly disconnect and recharge, far from the hustle and bustle of modern life.

Negative: I wholeheartedly recommend Nuqui to nature lovers, adventurers, surfers, and anyone seeking tranquility. If you crave an authentic, off-the-beaten-path experience, this is your destination. My top tips are: pack rain gear and quick-drying clothes, as the weather can be unpredictable. Be prepared for travel that is heavily dependent on good weather, and embrace the slower pace of life. Learning a few basic Spanish phrases will also enhance your interactions with the friendly locals.

Positive: Luzul is a very nice small ecolodge in a beautiful and very wet place; in fact it’s reputed to be the wettest place on the planet with an average of 30 feet of rain per year. But that should not discourage you from going. In the 5 days we spent there it rained every day, but mostly in short duration bursts with plenty of nice weather to do outdoor activities. The place has two cabins each with an upstairs and a downstairs unit. All the units are very open to the surrounding rainforest, but surprisingly, mosquitoes were not a problem. The meals are prepared by a skilled cook using local ingredients and the meals are substantial and delicious. Juancho, the resident manager, speaks some English and is very kind and helpful. He will help you arrange a canoe trip up the nearby river to a swimming hole, and a jungle hike to another swimming hole beneath a waterfall and a deserted beach. A short walk west down the beach is Arusi, a small village with a few stores. A 45 minute walk east will take you to some hot springs, but you can only do the walk at low tide in order to cross a channel. If you go it’s necessary to fly first to Nuquí then take a boat ride that takes about 1.45 hours to Luzul.

Positive: We completely loved it. From the very first moment, we felt taken care of. The staff was there for us the whole time. The food was amazing kudos to the local chefs team! The location is not the closest to the airport, but that allows one to enjoy the nature of the area more. There are so many things to do and see! We stayed in a very beautiful cabin that had it all. The cabins are done with a great deal of craftsmanship, and overall, the hotel is super beautiful. We would recommend this place without any doubt.

Negative: The only thing ( is really nothing) we didn't understand. Why was not the breakfast from the last day included. (When one books the private boat, in the public one would be too early so is very understandable)
