Our beach side hut of choice. We learnt to claim it early!

A book, a hammock and decent wifi. Tick, tick. Tick.

We worked our way through the frappuccino menu.

I'm not sure how 4 people were supposed to eat this but it was a nice gesture.

Still from the GoPro to prove that we did it. We all nearly died from this 40min of effort.

Someone brought a curse upon us. I think it's because I didn't return my novel to the hotel library.

But they settled for our insect-free mangrove tour

Fortunately they knew this labyrinth like the back of their hands

It was so smooth... Like it's a small world but without the earworm

I really wanted to see a raccoon. Had to settle for some birds and a crab.

A very musical wedding procession passed by our hole-in-the-wall dinner stop

We left our Island hideout after a fun few days. There was plenty of time spent in hammocks, on day-beds, in the water, in the room watching Squid Games 2, eating, drinking: repeat.

The significant deviations were:
- swimming amongst bioluminescent plankton at night
- running away from Iguanas (they swim!)
- kayaking around the Island
- trying to hide a huge, but tasteless cake that they gave us for Elliot's 22nd birthday.

3 nights was just right. We left completely satisfied and then completely drenched as horizontal rain appeared from nowhere to give Jonah the shower that he was supposed to have already had.

A freebie tour to see the mangrove tunnels and fishing village back in Cartegena was a nice way to finish a few days by the water.Read more
