Calabazo
You can play table tennis at this hostel. El Rodadero Beach is 30 km from Ecolodge Playa Brava Teyumakke, while Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino is 24 km away. The nearest airport is Simón Bolívar International Airport, 36 km from the property. The peace and beauty of this beach deserves at least two nights. We were mostly served by Ruth and Kevin and they were incredible. It’s evident that everyone cares about their job and the experience of their visitors. We spent one night in a cabin and another in a hammock; both experiences were lovely and memorable. We took a moto taxi from Calabazo to the point where the descent starts and hiked down the mountain in 1h30min. This hike and place set us off onto a trip we will never forget.

You can't beat the location if you want to sleep on the beach or need to unplug. It's a small fishing/surfing village, with a touristic twist. The waves are quite intense so swimming may or may not be a good idea depending on the waves. We enjoyed watching the fisherman putting the boats in the water in the morning, the whole community comes to help. Don't expect a 5 star hotel with all the amenities, this isn't it. It's a wonderful little spot on a beautiful beach. The internet works. It's accessible by bus and a half a mile walk (or moto ride). It's also a short bus ride to the entrance of Tayrona Park. We absolutely loved sleeping with the sound of the waves.

10/10, for sure the best hostel we had in a 10 month trip! Amazing friendly staff, great rooftop with good food and drink options, but still peaceful at night. Small pool is great to cool off!
I just loved this hostel. It was by far the best hostel we’ve stayed in South America on our 3 month trip. The room was amazing and felt like a luxurious hotel (we were in the private bedroom with a balcony). We have started to dread the free hostel breakfasts on our trip but this one was amazing as it wasn’t buffet style, we could order off the menu. The food and drinks prices were really reasonable considering you couldn’t buy your food from anywhere else! I would highly recommend adding this hostel to your Columbia itinerary.
Great location, walking distance everywhere through busy streets - it felt safe around the hostel even at night. Rooms have AC and beds are comfy. Pool area is very cool, the vibes in general are great and quiet from evening time. It also has breakfast inc wich is great for the price!
Very good value for money! Generelly the room and the hostel is basic but clean and lived up to my expectations. Even though I came early - they let me check in. The staff really made it a nice place to stay. It had a kind of family vibe , which I liked! Can definitely recommend this place if you need a cheap and safe place to stay.
Amazing location, nice hostel, hostel keepers where super nice and told us where to go and its cheap. Best hostel I have been to so far. Big recommendation for everyone visiting Minca.
Great location,great staff and roof top bar on top of hostel with cheap beer...the best hostel where l stay in Colombia
