“Lovely place, would stay again”
Really lovely property, relatively close to Tayrona National Park. The staff were all lovely and we LOVED the dogs and other friendly animals around the property. There was a decent kitchen and although there wasn't a mosquito net above the bed, it really didn't feel like we needed one. We didn't notice or get bitten by any bugs.

“A peaceful place for trip to Tayrona”
The accommodation is close to the main entrance of Tayrona, which is why we chose this accommodation, a trip to Tayrona is easy to organize. The family at the accommodation is wonderful and the area is beautiful. They have their own kitchen and the food was good. You can also buy drinks (soft drinks, beer, etc.) from them for a good price. Their dogs are lovely too! We stayed in two different cabanas (Chia and Chapinero). Chia wasn't that nice, but we liked Chapinero where they moved us because of the storm.

“Wonderful tropical Paradise!”
Natalia's place is a paradise! Natalia and her team are exceptional hosts, perfect communication, good recommendations, always available to us. Beautiful surroundings, a crystal clear river passes through the property. Perfect location to visit the Tayrona park, we stayed two nights and visited the Tayrona in the middle, so they stored our bags for us, which was very convenient. In addition, they prepared a delicious "fiambre" (typical Colombian food wrapped in banana leaf) to take with us when we visited the park. They also offered us a ride to the entrance of the park The cabin has everything you need for a comfortable stay in nature, spotless with nice touches and decorations, good access to the pool and small restaurant in case you don't want to cook. Without hesitation we would stay here again.

“The best stay we had in Colombia❤️THANK YOU!”
We have stayed at this beautiful land for a few nights and we had the best time within the whole 3 weeks we have spent in Colombia. They have welcomed us with geniune kindness and helpfulness, and our entire stay was like a dream. As soon as you set foot - i recommend barefoot - on this land you can just feel that every single tree, pet, meal, guest, wish - is treated with love and care. It is a blessing to be around such good, honest people like the hosts here, and their family. We would go back any day! The best place you can stay in the area❤️🙏

The garden is huge and beautiful. The pool is big, a little bit old but the water is clean. The owner is really friendly. They prepared for as a lovely take away lunch for Tayrona park and we could leave our luggage there for 1 extra day. Free WiFi close by the pool works, the WiFi from the hotel didn’t work when we were there.

Big property with houses spread in a nice garden, pool was great to relax after a day of hike, or the river for the most adventurous ones (beware the current, doesn't look so, but it's strong). Close to the main road yet it felt in the jungle given the wildlife noise you could hear at night. Big bungalow with good amenities. No mosquito net but as far as I understood (the Spanish in that area of Colombia is super fast!), the bungalows were treated and I didn't have any problem with mosquitoes. The plates the family cooked for me were tasty (I was the only one to get breakfast / dinner). Odair the owner was really responsive for all my questions.
