Great location for Parque Tayrona. Staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. Room as great and the on-site restaurant had decent options. My room was all the way on the top, so thank goodness the staff was able to help with my heavy luggage because I would have struggled.

The property itself was really beautiful. Our hut was surrounded by beautiful birds and plants. I got a massage and it was the best massage of my life. The restaurant served really great food as well.

Morgan United States of America

close to el Zaino entrance to Tayrona park. the property offered a free one-way shuttle to the entrance. They also hold your luggage for free while you are in the park. They have free drinkable water and a decent, filling free breakfast. Air conditioning in the dorms is a real plus! Staff are friendly and have enough English for me to communicate with. Wifi was reliable.

Melanie Canada

the beds were comfy, they allow you to leave your pack when hiking tayrona, the staff were so helpful and amazing and breakfast was delicious and full of the needed nutrients for a long hike!!

Margaret United States of America

Breakfast was great and the location was beautiful. A very easy access to Tyrona National Park.

Laurie United States of America

Very unique and funky thatched hut and decor. outdoor shower is amazing. views are great. Restaurant food is also very good and nice ambiance. helpful staff. several restaurants and bars nearby. free access to washer and purified water. nice small pool too.

Lesley Canada

The dorm room and bathroom were so clean, considering people are coming from beaches and still. The restaurant had delicious food. The location is the best to hail buses to Tayrona, Santa Marta and other beaches in the area right at the doorstep. Want to thank the friendly staff who suggested me to go to Cocos beach which was so much fun.

Priyanka India

Incredible restaurant, very nice and wide options.
