Reviews of Lote 10 Tayrona Glamping

The rooms are beautiful, loved having a private bit of beach.

There isn't much lighting or music in the common spaces at night so it's not easy to chat to people and there's not much of a vibe compared to other places on the beach. Even though it's beautiful it's probably too expensive for what it is.

Breakfast was very tasty. The he portions were just the right size. My friends enjoyed their stay.

No swimming pool at this location

Everything! Such a nice spot, food was really nice and affordable, staff were really nice and close to other bars. The tents were great to stay in

Nothing

The style, the quiet and relaxed atmosphere, the friendly and helpful staff. The massages that are offered is really good and professional. The food at the restaurant is really good, but a few more vegetarian options would be great.

The compostable toilet was not a favorite of ours, and we hope that it can be improved without failing to comply with the concept of sustainability. A few thing that can be improved to make the place even more nice: The place in general is run by solar panels which is really nice, but it is not enough to light the tent or the outdoor area sufficiently at night. It would especially have been nice with light inside of the toilet shed instead of outside, as you will sit in complete darkness if you don’t bring a flashlight. Besides that it would have been nice with a door in front of the beach to prevent people from entering the room/private area. You are in the middle of nature, so expect crabs, lizards etc. around :-)

Absolutely everything - staff, food, location, tents

The room was very quiet, with a large private garden and direct access to the beach. Massages are good value for money and they come to the room, for a really relaxing experience. Staff was friendly.

The place would benefit from better cleaning and maintenance, both in the common areas (particularly the garden, beach bar and bathrooms) and the rooms. Despite being advertised, they were not offering yoga classes. Food options are limited, no fresh fish despite being by the sea and no vegetarian mains (there was a vegan breakfast option though).

So romantic and cute! Looks heavenly.

The bell, to get in the property you have to use a manual bell but it really doesn’t work that well.

Lote 10 was a dream and much better than we could have expected. Its location is definitely its strongest card - in between of a wild ocean and a tropical jungle. The hostel has a super cool bar right on the beach, which offers a great selection of drinks and amazing food. The breakfast is included and you have a choice among three different plates, all of which are very delicious and accompanied with juice of exotic fruits, coffee and fruit. The staff is so friendly and always open to help you with whatever you need. There is a huge garden in the hostel where they grow different kinds of vegetables and exotic fruits - very inspiring lifestyle of self-sufficiency! The rooms are very well-equipped and have literally everything. Outside the door of the rooms, you can find a faucet to wash your feet before you enter, inside you have towels, mosquito net, and a box with a lock that you can use as a safe. There is also a little garden with a table and chairs, and then the shower, sink, and bathroom (which is ecological, so no flush). The WiFi works very well, too! They have even created an improvised gym next to the bar with weights, bench and monkey bars - all made out of wood and cement! Once in the hostel, you will come across a wide range of tropical animals (birds, lizards, frogs, and I even saw a kind of iguana twice). Lote 10 offers a very interesting perspective into life in nature and self-sufficiency and we absolutely loved it! Would definitely recommend.

You have to walk 30 minutes to go to the main road, where you can take the bus. There are moto-taxis that can take you from the hostel to the main road, and they cost around COP 8,000. We didn't really mind walking, but it's good to know what to expect. Something else that we weren't really aware beforehand is that the whole concept of the hostel is an ecolodge - which means that everything is made out of wood and you really feel like being into the jungle (which we loved!). This, however, comes with maaany mosquitos since there are no walls or covers in the rooms - everything is open air. You could also be exposed to lizards, frogs, or whatever else walks around your room.

Amazing surroundings, really cute tents with our own yards, we loved beach and nature! The food and cocktails in the bar were nice as well.

We understood that the staff is changing all the time, most of them are volunteers and were friendly, but the reception does not value people, they just want your money :) we had issues with the payment (the message they send you on booking app doesnot mach the words they say in reception). Also the reception was not very helpful, even the last morning when we were leaving just before breakfast time and the day before they said that they are going to leave breakfast for us at a bar but there was nothing there (It's okay not to get breakfast when we leave early, but it could have been said in advance instead of promising something you won't deliver).

I love the setting all the furniture was amazing also

I liked everything about lote 10

I ate both breakfast and dinner at the property, rotating among all the options, and loved everything I tried. I was surprised how much private space I had (King room with ocean view) including my own little private beach with comfy seating. I loved that I could minimize the environmental impact of my stay by using solar power and composting toilet; I never saw a single plastic bottle or plastic bag the whole time I was there. On Saturday night I could hear the thumping music of a nearby resort; I was SO glad that at Lote 10 Glamping you only hear the pounding ocean, all day and all night. I especially appreciated the staff: you can whatsapp reception and request that your breakfast is brought to your room, and if you get a massage, the massage therapist comes and sets up in your private space. They were flexbible in allowing a late check-in when I arrived. On my last day I thought my shoes had been stolen from where I'd left them to dry on my private beach area; a helpful staff member looked through security camera footage and discovered that they'd been taken by a staff member and brought to the bar for safekeeping. Alex and David, along with the entire kitchen staff, made me feel very well cared for.

Shower was cold, but that was to be expected.

A relaxed oasis to enjoy calm days at the beach. Great staff and good food.

The staff and service

The bathroom

Great location and chill vibes

Quite funny that breakfast was included but asked us to pay for some milk for our coffee …..

Having a delicious breakfast right in front of the sea was priceless <3 the staff were incredibly kind and that made our experience super pleasant

The showers could have better maintenance
