Colombia | Feb 8 - Feb 20, 2024

A beautiful hotel, friendly and accommodating staff. We stayed in a 1BR suite that was absolutely perfect.

Absolutely beautiful and peaceful hotel on the edge of Tayrona Park, with beautiful views of the mountains and easy access to the river. Our cabana was spacious and clean, the food was delicious and reasonably priced. The staff was delightful and accommodating. So much better than the online pictures! This was our family's favorite hotel during our trip!

Beautiful hotel in the center of Cartagena. We enjoyed escaping the heat in the beautiful courtyard pool and relaxing in the rooftop plunge pool. The included breakfast was expansive and delicious. The staff was lovely and very patient with our children. Located on a quiet block but close to restaurants, gelato and a popular square with coffee shops and convenience store nearby.

Small eco-hotel located on the side of a mountain, down a narrow unpaved road (an interesting drive up the road in a van!). We stayed in 2 deluxe rooms which were comfortable, though not air conditioned but do have fans and sleeping was comfortable since the temperatures cool down overnight. The drawback was that there are no screens to prevent bugs entering and one bed did not have a mosquito net. We got a lot of bug bites in Minca! The breakfast was delicious and staff was kind (though a little slow with service). The pool/hot tub situation was lacking but there was easy access to a beautiful river where we spent a lot of time. About a 10 minute walk into town which was easy/fine. The evening restaurant was closed while we were there but they offered options to order from restaurants for delivery, but we opted to just walk into town. Overall, our experience was fine for a brief stay in a small town. Would not stay here if expecting/requiring a luxury experience.

We stayed in the 2-story family cabin, located up a hill from the main hotel area. There were a lot of steps which would be difficult for anyone with mobility issues, but fine for our crew. Downstairs was a small kitchenette/living area and small bathroom. Upstairs was an open space with 3 beds to accommodate our family of 5. There was a lot of outdoor space which was great for our kids. No air conditioning but comfortable sleeping conditions with the windows open since the temperatures cooled off at night. I do not recommend this place if you are uncomfortable with the occasional spider or insect - we encountered a couple during our stay since the cabin is not air tight and we kept the windows open most of the time (but not a huge deal for us). Bring bug repellant for mosquitos at dusk, but otherwise biting insects were not bad. Staff was lovely, breakfast was delicious and served in the garden next to a small creek. Coffee was plentiful and self serve, which we appreciated. We loved hanging out with the resident golden retriever. Location was about a 10 minute drive into Salento, but Uber worked well there or the hotel will call you a taxi - cost was around $5USD per way. There are a few restaurants and a river for swimming within walking distance as well (about 10 minutes down the road).
