The heartwarming welcome that the entire team gave to my partner and me. This attitude continued during our entire stay and I can't stress enough how much we appreciated their genuine interest and care for our wellbeing and for providing us with a truly unforgettable stay. Diana and her colleagues are incredible people and I sincerely hope that we will have the opportunity to visit their extraordinary hotel again one day. The place is an oasis of hospitality, our room was spacious, impeccably clean and comfortable with a great private shower and an incredible bed. The food that the restaurant offers is very tasty and carefully prepared. I loved every single second of our 3 days stay!

The house is located a reasonable walking distance from the road where the buses run and about ten minutes from the entrance to Tayrona Park. The house is located in a very quiet area, ideal for resting with a beautiful garden and hammocks available. The room and the house in general were very clean. The bedding was very comfortable (mattress much less firm than what you can usually find in Colombia). We did not meet the host but Rafael who welcomed us was very pleasant and available

What an amazing experience, somewhere between Hostel and Homestay. The location is quiet and off the beaten path, yet barely a 5 minute walk to the main beach. I was welcomed in by name at the door (there were no other guests expected to check in that night). I was working while there and would be regularly offered whatever juice of the moment the family was making, ginger tea, to join then for lunch, etc. they wee understanding that I was working for many hours throughout the day and offered me a personal fan, moved a table around and whatnot to accomodate offering me an outdoor workspace even though there was one in my room. The place was spotless and the private room I upgraded to had four pillows on the bed, I hadn't been so comfortable in all my weeks in Columbia! The hammocks and chill space was perfectly spacious, with a quiet option on the rear balcony away from others with a view of the mountains. The hosts set me up with a local guide Pocho for a swim and fishing walkabout through the mountains, he was a naturopath and offered a massage and treating my injured knee. The whole experience was a blessing. The restaurant suggestion was so spot on that I went there for every dinner and wish that there was such a well priced option in the other cities I visited. Im so grateful my AirBNB fell through and that I landed here instead!!
