    The curtains in the room did not go all the way to the bottom so basically anyone on the lower floor can see in the room at all times.

    Beautiful location in the mountains with view over the Caribbean sea

    Wasn't prepared for the hill, would be nice if they had some staff to help with luggage up the hill and it would be hard for some people.

    Hospitable staff, helped arrange transportation and a tour.

    Loved our one night stay here. Yes the walk up the hill to the hostel is steep but the views from the accomodation more than make up for this. Staff were excellent and very helpful. Would stay again.

    Staff were very friendly and the place was comfortable unfortunately we didn't get a chance to relax and enjoy it much. Due to our timelines it was a rush to go up the hill to our accommodations and tiring with our bags. Would be great if somehow there was a motoraxi or something to help us with that, hard to go up a long hill at the end of a long day. Overall great accommodation. Our hosts were very gracious and helpful including arranging a guide for us for a tour.

    The hill is a challenge with a pack. It took us a while and we were SWEATING by the time we got to the top. But the view and hostel are incredible.

    This place is AMAZING! We had just come from the hostel of horrors in town to this paradise! The owners are absolutely delightful and so helpful with anything we needed. We were the only guests there at the time and it felt like our own little slice of heaven. The pool is lovely and the view is incredible. The room was everything we needed and the air con worked brilliantly. Lunch was great and the included brekkie was perfect.

    The hill climb to get to this spot is a trek. In the heat of the day it is exhausting!

    The views were amazing and the staff were nice, but Wendy is a really beautiful soul and made me feel very welcome. The atmosphere there is lovely and relaxed, which makes it a great place to unwind.

    I loved the place and the atmosphere! Yes, you walk up a steep hill to get there but you get rewarded with an amazing view and sunsets over the bay. Angelina, Milena and the team were angels and supported us with everything we needed, from special dietary requirements to organising a masseuse, doing laundry. The owner Javier made us feel home with his relaxed and welcoming personality. For us, it was the perfect place to recover from our hike at the Lost City. Thank you for everything!

    A bit of a hill to reach the property but def worth it!

    The layout of the hostel feels like a tree house! All different level and point of entries - super fun & cool! The staff were LOVELY! The included breakfast can with delicious eggs, toast, a smoothie, coffee, and fresh fruit. Our room did not have AC but the fan kept us cool at night. The most amazing sunset views as the hostel is located up on a hill over looking the beach.

    because when you go out for a trip, aprécialos on vacations, you don’t want to do any effort, I didn’t like the path to get there, but for 2 nights was okay.

    if you have problems with your knees or difficulties with walking I wouldn’t recommend staying here. quiet a journey to arrive to the place (so worth it though!) and lots of steps in the place.

    best vibe and place in Taganga! super quiet and amazing atmosphere! Richie, his mother and the whole team created such an awesome place to relax by the pool, connect with other travelers or just enjoy ones private space! we can really recommend it - there is dorm, rooms with fan or AC - for everyone something!

    Dangerous dogs

    I got bitten by one of the hotel’s dogs. They get really aggressive when people arrive. I love dogs and have made friends with many hotel dogs in three months of travelling in South America. Unfortunately the dogs in this hotel are wild. There are a lot of them and they are constantly biting each other. Since I didn’t know which one bit me (the whole group chased me off the stairs to the hotel) I had to get rabies treatment as a precaution. In Colombia this means days and days of visiting hospitals and clinics to get the right treatment. I nearly missed my flight because of this. The ladies at the hotel were very kind and helped me disinfect the wound. And the rest of the hotel was fine. But if you end up in hospital because of a hotel’s pet that has to be the lowest possible rating.

    The staff were friendly.

    Updated pictures for the ad where you book. Better description of the elevation from the main road to Hostal Casa Horizonte. It had 2 different "dots" at google maps - its the one at the top of the hill.

    First, you should note that it is located uphill, you'll have to take a *very* steep road to get there. The road is actually so steep that taxis cannot make it (!), so every time you want to come back to the hostel you will have to sweat heavily. Not to mention what happens with luggage. The hostel gives you a number of a taxi driver but he does not work in taganga anymore. Furthermore, the toilet in our room had a water leakage and we woke up with water on the floor and our stuff soaked (the backpack was on the floor). Moreover, the shower smelled bad, they "fixed" but then the shower didn't drain anymore. Anyways, these things can happen I would not bother to write a negative review just because of them. What was really unacceptable was the attitude of the ppl there. They never apologized for what happened, on the contrary they said it was us who flooded the room for washing our clothes (which of course wasn't true, as they had to fix the leaking pipe). They are incredibly arrogant and careless. When we complained about a 5% fee to pay by card, they insulted us and even threatened to call the police :) Colombia is full of nice, welcoming people. Just avoid this place if you want to relax and enjoy your vacation.

    The hostal has a great view, but that's all unfortunately
