“I’d recommend Sierra Alta FB to anyone coming to Colombia. The staff will make you feel like you’re at home, and it’s a great place to relax and unwind. If you’re looking for activities, the hotel offers various tours with local guides — we did the waterfall tour which was really special, as we had it all to ourselves! The food at the restaurant is also outstanding, and a welcome twist on traditional fare. The hotel is high up in the mountains, so a 4x4 is needed, but the views are worth it. Despite being so remote, the property has all the comforts one could ask for. Our room had a private jacuzzi which was the cherry on top.”

“The staff and owner, Pilar really bring this place to life. They have a kind and generous spirit and it is evident in the way that they run this place!”

“Amazing views and very friendly service in a relaxing environment, on a mountain overlooking the Sierra Nevada.”

“amazing staff, excellent food, and beautiful location”

“The location is stellar! The food is incredible. The staff is friendly and attentive. Pilar is very accommodating, the perfect host. I started missing the hotel the minute we left. I cannot wait to return.”

“Very helpful host. Great location mountains and forest. Super food. I do not normally eat in but the restaurant was excellent. .”

“Sierra Alta Finca is located high in the Sierra Nevada Mountains outside Santa Marta, Colombia. The location is beautiful with private cabanas over looking an incredible view of the mountains and the city beyond. The service there was great! Pilar has a great staff and everyone was extremely professional, friendly, and helpful. The food was delicious! There is a kitchen/ chef on property serving three meals a day. This was the perfect spot for my wife and me to rest, unplug and enjoy some time together. We took a guided hiking tour of the mountains with local guide, Richard Becerra. Highly recommend.”

“Super friendly staff, lovely rooms, beautiful views, your own hot tub, delicious meals all nestled within the jungle! Before going I was worried about the bugs but we didn’t have any trouble. We came armed with repellent and our rooms were big free. It cools down at night. The beds were comfortable and covers kept us warm. Internet was great - my son even watched a couple of movies with the Wi-Fi! And the staff prepared special meals for our kids, including baby who has an egg allergy. Our meals were delicious and very generous and prepared quickly - we never waited long , at most five minutes. Super kid friendly location. Would return in a heartbeat. Also, lots of activities to keep you busy during the day, far from all the tourists and close to Mother Nature with knowledgeable and kind people. Three nights was the perfect stay but could have stayed longer too. Pilar the owner will go above and beyond yo make sure your needs are met. When my hiking boots fell apart she lent me hers!!”

“The location is absolutely tranquil, the staff are so kind and attentive, Pilar the owner and host is such a fun, interesting and helpful hostess with a great eye for design. She knows all the people that live around the mountain and was able to organize local activities off the beaten track. Also given how remote the location is, the food was sooo tasty!! We loved the breakfast food. Rooms are basic but very comfy and outdoor showers are a nice touch! Wifi was very decent given the location too! The area is very remote and a jeep ride ~25min from Minca so its worth spending more than 1 night there. Also to enjoy the surroundings!”

“I love this little unique place! Pilar is the best host I’ve ever met. She is very helpful with everything. Amazing view from patio, cozy room and very friendly and warm atmosphere and food was just great!”
