The property was new and nicely decorated. The outdoor patio/bar was really nice. The hosts, Pilar and Jorge treated us like family and it was a very nice environment to relax. The beach was very close and so were some restaurants and grocery stores. Large, comfy bed in the room with air conditioning, as well as a balcony.

Really beautiful small Kogui huts inside Tayrona park. Great Spot if you want to explore Tayrona for more than a day-trip. Approx. 50 mins from the main entrance if you Walk all the way and carry larger backpacks (25 min main road + 25 min dirt road and stairs!!) The houses themselves are pretty small but have everything you need for a few nights. The team is really nice, can tell you something about the park and offer dinner with vegetarian options. The huts only have cold water for showers and the main House was one of the few points with cell reception for me, which is really helpful! Approx 50 mins from the hotel to the nearest beach (la piscinita) with the busses and to short walks!

What Naydu and and her family established in this remote place is just incredible. The hard work, skills and dedication that go into bringing that kind of comfort into this quiet remote location cannot be overstated. The rooms are simple but very well constructed and I slept like a baby. Even though the first night we were subjected to quite a strong storm hitting the coast. The hearty and diligent service they provide from the delicious meals to logistical help and anything one might need is beyond words. Truly a pearl in this most beautiful part of the world. Greetings and much love to Naydu and her family who made me feel at home from day one up to being dropped off safely on a public bus to continue my journey.

Blue dot is not just a hostel. Its a magical place, where you instantly feel at home, surrounded by forest everywhere you look. There is an incredible river 5 min from the hostel to refresh and connect with nature. Delicious vegan food made with love, dogs to cuddle and super comfy beds. Its an adventure to get there, but totally worth it!
