    The position is unique, overlooking the majestic playa El Almejal. Considering the remoteness of the area and the difficulty of supplies of any kind, the accommodation is pretty good. The view and the constant sound of the ocean make up for any...

El morro hosteria - The hill B&B, located on a volcanic peninsula in the south end of Almejal beach in El Valle (18 Km south of Bahia Solano) with outstanding views of the Pacific jungle kissing the ocean, providing a tranquil environment, ideal for couples or families looking to spent time reconnecting with nature. The hexagon building is set in a wonderful hill side overlooking Almejal beach, with an open concept, built under bio-climate parameters, with several decks and terraces to help you take in the views and the sunset while allowing you to keep social distance if desire. There are three rooms on the second floor, all with a private bathroom and scenic views buzzing wildlife. The social lounge area / fully furnished shared kitchen, located In the upper third floor, where guest can enjoy a complimentary continental breakfast and are invited to help themselves to drinks from the fridge on a trust basis making you feel at home. With 360 degree views, while being mesmerized watching the humpback whales going by.( from July to October).

Jupi Da Silva a Brazilian American artist from NYC, Monica Da Silva a Colombian American Agronomist / teacher from NYC. Nature and animal lovers very environmentally inclined with easy out going personality. Languages spoken: English, Spanish and Portuguese. PS: Here at the Hill we do have cats and a dog which are part of the family.
Almejal Beach in our opinion is one of the nicest in the area where the jungle kisses the pacific ocean and you can enjoy Surfing or just going for a swim. The people are warm and nice and the water temperature is optimum all year around. Humpback whales and marine turtles migrate every year but a visit any time of the year to this gem of a spot is sure to be rewarding. At the hill We believe and practice eco-community tourism, therefore We will serve You as a bridge of communication with the local community. We have excellent relations with local tour operators that We know and trust, with them You can go to see Humpback whales (from July to October), Sea turtles are hatching from their eggs and walking into the pacific ocean (from September to January), Bird watching, Rainforest hiking to waterfalls and kayaking through the mangroves are only some of the activities offered. The nearest airport is Jose Celestino Mutis in Bahia Solano, 6.5 miles from The Hill, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service (50 minutes by car). Ensenada de Utria National park is a 40 minutes boat ride away.
