The location is superb,putting you inside the park and relatively close to the trailhead. The property and surrounding environment are beautiful. The birding there was better than it was on the trails. Titi monkeys visited and four macaws are regulars. The host family is super casual, friendly and helpful. The food and drinks are tasty!

We were welcomed with very good service; they immediately showed us to our room, explained the rules. The room had everything we needed and a lovely balcony. Breakfast was good. The best part is its location—you don’t have to walk from the bus like you do with other hotels. We usually don’t use pools, but this one looked clean, and we liked it. Plus, they helped us with directions to other places.

I liked the great atmosphere. The nature surrounding the hostel is amazing. Furthermore we walked to a natural pool recommended by the stad which was amazing. My friend also tried mountainbiking offered by the location. She loved it. The staff was always very helpful. Furthermore they serve great food. And you get the opportunity to see monkeys

I was expecting a room in a large building. It was my own little hut with my own patio and private bathroom. I can't explain how beautiful this place is. The cooks whip up your food to order. All the staff were always smiling and amazing. The pool was perfect after being out in the heat all day. I honestly can't recommend enough!!

    The atmosphere in this place is amazing, really relaxed and chill staff and guests. The food and the drinks delicious and affordable! The pool clean and refreshing. Sleeping in a cabin basically outside was such a cool experience, felt safe and exciting, would recommend! Definitely the best hostel we have been out of all 10 during one month in Colombia.

    Apart from the road to get there everything is AMAZING about this hostel! Couldn’t recommend it more. One of the, if not thé, best hostel I’ve stayed in. Beautiful (outdoor!!) rooms, a big area to wander around and get lost in and such a good place to meet people. The vibe was completely right!

    The location is amazing!! So beautiful, with views of the jungle and the hills. There is múltiple places to chill, including pool, bath, net, swing and chairs. The food is amazing, definitely best hostel food I've ever had!! Its close enough to tayrona, el zaino entrance to walk (about 35 mins) plus some of it through the jungle which is beautiful. The staff were great, lots of volunteers who also speak English. We stayed in the hobbit room, outside shower and comfortable space.

    I'm into everything, it is the best hostel in Colombia and the world, the arrival is idyllic, it is a place with immense serenity and beauty, which allows you to appreciate nature at its best, the food is an ambrosia and the family that owns this paradise on earth is really charming. Thank you Origen for a night full of Colombia Guajira Magic.

    Calm and refreshing place to chill near the jungle, early in the morning you can even see some monkeys ! The hosts are so nice, and will help you with everything. The bed was comfy, the sound of the rivier and the nature to fall a sleep. The food from the host is really good, and cheap. The rivier down the hostel is really good for swimming or chilling on the rock. There are some waterfall to visit and Tayrona entrance (El Zaino) is really close

    The view from the room was beautiful, we could see some animals during the day and night, the hostel is good for meeting new people from around the world as they propose a variety of common areas, the food they sell is pretty tasty as well. In general it has a good location if you plan to visit the Tayrona Park.
