The location is absolutely wonderful if you’re looking to disconnect from the outside world and fully immerse yourself in the beauty of the Sierra. It’s also very easy to walk from Minca to the hotel, taking approximately 40 minutes along an open road, with the river running alongside and beautiful nature all around. It’s not a hiking trail, but rather a road used by bicycles and the occasional 4x4 vehicle. That said, if you enjoy walking, it’s a lovely and scenic route. Halfway between Minca and the hotel, you’ll find a small waterfall, as well as Finca Cacao and Café Arhuaca, which offers a wonderful tour where you can learn about cacao, coffee, and indigenous culture. If you continue along the road past the hotel for another 20–30 minutes uphill, you’ll reach the beautiful Marinka Waterfalls, which are absolutely worth a visit. All in all, although the hotel is quite isolated, there are plenty of lovely things to discover within walking distance, and the road itself makes for a beautiful walk. It’s a great location for anyone who enjoys nature, walking, and exploring the surroundings at a relaxed pace.

This has been the nicest hostel I’ve stayed at on this trip. The pool was lovely, everything was very clean and even the dorm room was quiet. I slept easily with a room of 3 other women. The view from the main area was gorgeous.

Nice relaxing stay and very friendly and helpful staff

What a beautiful spot, right on the river. We loved being able to walk down to the river for a swim, so refreshing for the hot afternoons in Minca. The rooms are clean and modern, with air conditioning, a super comfortable bed and lots of space! Loved having breakfast overlooking the river. We sadly only had one night here, would have loved to stay longer.

The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Basic amenities but good enough. The views from the property are very nice. The Hotel is very close to Minca town, just 5 min walking (uphill but very doable). The only inconvenience is that you can hear the traffic from the road down the hill. It is quite noisy, even at night. But I always travel with earplugs. ;) the breakfast is very basic but nice. The views from the restaurant are gorgeous! I will come back! PS: I recommend getting a full body massage!!

The moment I arrived at Sol de Minca Eco Lodge, I instantly knew it was the place to be. The place blends beautifully with the surrounding nature. The view is absolutely stunning. I was so taken by it that I barely left for town (which is just a 15-minute walk away). Everything is spotless clean. I stayed in a 6-bed dorm, which occupies the whole first floor and has its own terrace and view. Breakfast is included and all the more enjoyable especially when accompanied by the symphony of birds singing. The staff are super kind, helpful and genuinely eco-conscious, especially Nac, the manager. One morning after breakfast, she showed me different kind of birds with such gentle enthusiasm and a sincere love for nature.

The location is convenient and close to the trails that go to the main attractions. The staff is super attentive and make sure that any issues that may arise are addressed in a timely manner. Our had a TV, a fridge, a sofa and an armchair, which made us feel more like home. And also the cats!!

The room was very comfortable inside the nature it was a very nice sleep experience very quite and a lot of silence. If you want to disconnect this is the place. I will definitely will go back with my little nephew.

The staff was very friendly and the location was incredible. Especial thanks to Fabian who with his flexibility and joyous mood made our stay extra wonderful.

Unique experience (tower) in the jungle

Everything was amazing, the staff were very helpful and always polite. Amazing food, very clean spaces, comfortable room. There were no inconveniences, perfect experience

Such a special stay in Minca 🌿 thank you to Jorge for such an amazing stay . Your hospitality made the experience so special. The food was incredible, the rooms were beautiful and calm, and the whole place was perfect for disconnecting and being in nature. Couldn’t have asked for a better host! thank you for everything!

Loved their friendly and very accommodating staff.

Personnel is amazing. The really do their best to make sure your have a good time. Great food and great hospitality. They took their time to talk about different things to do and tours that are around. Definitely hike from the hotel to Marinka waterfalls (or vice versa if you want some good excercise) if you have a chance! Amazing views from the hotel and we loved the jacuzzi on the balcony Hotel is really in middle of nature

This place was amazing! From the accommodation to the surrounding and the staff, one of the rare wow places we had during our travel. Everything was perfect

Traveling with 4 kids. Super staff, super location. Very clean. The pool is like the pictures. Would recommend for families.

Had the best time. We didn’t plan on staying here until we ended up coming to Minca two nights earlier unexpectedly. Room was really dry, large and comfortable. Staff were lovely, and the common areas of the hotel were lovely to stay in. Great location to Minca town without any noise

La Casa del Mono is the perfect cabin “in the woods (jungle)”. We visited with our 7 month old baby and my dad and we all had the best time! They’ve made sure to keep the cabin (chalet) very cozy, modern, and comfortable. We really loved it! It’s worth mentioning the viewpoint at the property… it’s just the best view in Minca!

El Santuario was the perfect home base for exploring Minca! Nora and José Luis have obviously put a lot of love into their hotel- they were exceptionally kind and provided us with everything we needed during our stay. We split three rooms between 5 friends, which was totally comfortable for us. We started every morning taking in the stunning views while enjoying a delicious home cooked breakfast- the birdwatching is unparalleled to any place I’ve visited before! It’s a quick 10 minute drive to the center of Minca- we had a car, but the hotel will happily arrange a mototaxi for you, which I took advantage of as i chose to stay an extra night after my travel mates departed. We ended our evenings using the ample common areas to sip tequila and reflect on our adventures. The evenings were cool enough that we wouldn’t have used a/c even if it was available. Of course there are some bugs, but what else would you expect staying in a rustic town in the middle of the jungle?? Other reviewers noting this as a con are obviously unused to accommodations that strive to be as ecologically mindful as possible to their natural environments. Thank you José Luis and Nora for everything! Much love to you and your beautiful family. We can’t wait to return <3

The most amazing place. I love the location and the beautiful landscape, the gardens, the pool. The rooms are big and lovely bathroom. But above all the staff!!! Out of this world hospitality and consideration. They took such excellent care of us. The family is so proud of this place and want to share everything. You will not regret staying here.
