ItalyThis is a wonderful place to stay. The location is quite magical situated on the beachfront and surrounded by the almost surreal desert like orrange hues of the Alta Guajira. The staff were all incredibly friendly and from the surrounding area with lots of knowledge. The food was great and served with a big smile. This is a wonderful place to spend a couple of days in a hammock sipping on a cold beer. The cabins were extremely comfortable with their own porch complete with hammocks. The beds were good. Highly recommended is a trip to the nearby Pilon de Azucar hill and beach. The main settlement is a half an hour walk along the beach. A highly recommended hotel.

United KingdomRancheria Utta es probablemente la mejor ranchería en Cabo de Vela, especialmente por el personal. Mario siempre te va a tratar genial, incluso nos hizo preparar unos sandwiches para el día que salíamos a las 5 am para Punta Gallinas. Ana siempre atenta y amable en recepción. Y Kaisol cada noche invita a los huéspedes a una charla en la que cuenta sobre la comunidad Wayuu y es mágico. En nuestro caso nos tocó noche sobre el maquillaje Wayuu. Además, el 99% del personal en la ranchería es Wayuu. <3 Gracias Utta por tu hospitalidad :)

NetherlandsFue una experiencia única, el paisaje es hermoso tiene muy buena ubicación. El personal que atiende la ranchería es muy amable y servicial siempre están muy atentos a lo que necesites, en especial Eduardo y Will. Es un lugar excepcional para desconectarse y descansar. La ranchería Utta tambien ofrece un espacio llamado Enramada Cultural en donde puedes aprender diferentes temas de la comunidad wayuu al lado de su anfitriona Kaisol. Ella siempre se encuentra orgullosa de su cultura y esta dispuesta para resolver las dudas y enseñarte tanto de su comida, vestimenta, maquillaje entre otros temas interesantes.
