For the price room could have had a bit more character, maybe some hangers for clothes too.

Nice swimming pool and really great views from the breakfast terrace. A basic but comfortable private room with a hammock outside.

The hotel is on the hill so getting there with luggage requires walking 40 steep steps up. I received help with luggage on the way up, but there was noone to help me when checking out. Windows and the door are not very well isolated, so my room was full of bugs every evening, as light attracts it. Little pool next to my Chalet was full of bugs so I didnt use it. However, main pool was clean and nice. I would suggest improving seating faculity as plastic chairs are very hard to enjoy the sun.

Very calm and peaceful, right next to the road that leads to Tayrona entrance so its easy to catch a bus there. Steps away some restaurants and a shop so can grab necessities.

Great location in front of the bus stop and 15min away from Parque Tayrona. Owner were really nice and made us feel at home. Breakfast was really good (eggs, arepas, coffee, juice, fruits) with different options available

Beautiful hostal very close to Tayrona park and easy to get to/from Santa Marta. The bus stops literally at the doorstep of the place. The couple who owned the place were very friendly and happy to give lots of tips on the area. Room itself was basic but comfortable. Bare In mind there’s no hot water but you won’t need it with the heat! Pool was also lovely.

We stayed in one of the villas, the rooms didn't have air con but did have a couple of fans. Only having one bathroom for five people wasn't ideal although we could use the shower next to the pool in a pinch. No bin in the room either.

The photos don't do this Hostel justice, the gardens around the huts and the surrounding mountain are amazing. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the pool is decent, and the food is great. Getting the bus to Tayrona National Park was super easy too, wait on the main road for next bus (blue, white, and green, running every 10/15 minutes) and be at the main park entrance in 7 minutes. Would also recommend going to Mendihuaca beach (pronounced mendy-whacker), use the same bus as Tayrona, just a few stops further down.

Internet is intermittent, towels are not replaced even after 3 days but that’s expected in a hostel. Stairs could be an issue for some.

Nice location almost walking distance from El Zaino Entrance to Tayrona NP Clean pool. Ok breakfast.

The location was key as we were heading to Tayrona National park which was only a short shuttle away. Not many other attractions near by though. We needed to be back in Santa Marta at 5am to catch our shuttle back to Cartagena and the staff arranged that for us at 4am which was very helpful! No wifi unless you are up at the reception area. They only serve breakfast which we didn't have time for so didn't get a chance to try it. There are a few restaurants near by with great food though! All in all a great place to stay for the value!

Cabin was close to the road. Trucks and motorcycles sounded like they were in the cabin until late at night.

Grounds and staff were great. Beds comfortable and clean.

Stayed in June 2023

Due to the national park being closed the restaurant was closed for evening meals

Stunning view and space to relax

little out the way, you are on a main road so you can’t really walk anywhere. however motor taxis and buses. the restaurant wasn’t open so only had breakfast so had to go out for food and no kitchen area. it was super quite but that’s not a negative to most but we did think it might be more hostal vibe. but maybe that is just in the name.

very beautiful little hostal, more like a hotel. Nice pool and area to have a drink in the evening with a view.

Stayed in March 2023

The water supply was a little unreliable - this is an issue affecting the area and not the hostel’s fault, but be aware that 24/7 running water is not likely!

Very beautiful location, comfortable beds and good breakfast. The staff are super helpful.

Stayed in February 2023

extremely noisy - if you stay in the lower bungalow you won’t be able to sleep. it’s by express way with trucks passing for the whole night :(. and there is no hot water in the shower. it’s not even designed to have hot water :)

wonderful views, very close to park entry, very nice Restaurant, nice pool

Stayed in January 2023

Our room was placed right next to the road which made it hard to sleep the first night. The other nights went better.

The place was beautiful, the staff was super friendly, the pool was great for the kids, the food ind the restaurant was really tasty.

Mosquito net filthy and full of holes. Shower was just a plastic pipe coming out of the wall. No shower head or hot water. Lots of creep crawlies in room. Pool looked dirty. Tiny breakfast.OK for a child. Noisy main road with trucks and buses etc.

Very little. 2 km from entrance to Tayrona National Park.

the atmosphere, the location, very kind staff, pool

I was expecting a room in a large building. It was my own little hut with my own patio and private bathroom. I can't explain how beautiful this place is. The cooks whip up your food to order. All the staff were always smiling and amazing. The pool was perfect after being out in the heat all day. I honestly can't recommend enough!!
