We arrived late afternoon which meant our room was ready straight away. The hotel were helpful in advance letting us of the park entrance ticket booth closing time which meant we arrived before closing time (5pm). The hotel is beautiful, the views are fantastic and the sky was clear both nights we were there which meant we could stargaze from our terrace. It was super quiet and peaceful. Right by one of the main entrances to the park, easy to find and very easy to start our hike into the park early in the morning. They have a pingpong table and board games in the dining room which were fun to play in the evenings too. We will be back!

Fantastic food from Carlos the cook and fantastic hospitality from Charles and his team! The site is beautiful and directly next to the river. So don’t forget you mosquito spray! Very helpful team, we asked them to store our luggage for two days because we stayed in tayrona for two nights and it was no problem at all. They even offered us to use the pool area afterwards.

Suites had a lot of space, great view of the property and trees. The nearest beaches were nice, clean and a good walk away. Staff was friendly and helpful. There are also clean public bathrooms on the property. Fans in the rooms <3. Plenty of bins to throw your trash away. There is a safe in the room to lock up valuables. They sell mosquito repellent there if you run out. It is about a 45-1 hour hike to the establishment from parking but you can get horse service if available. Would recommend even if it is just to carry your bags (they will meet you at the final location)

The ecohabs are gorgeous and with views of the beautiful Tayrona sea and the mountain jungle. They are very comfortable and the beds have mosquito nets. We do suggest you close all windows at around 5 pm so the mosquitoes do not enter the ecohab. The downstairs area was amazing, we had some lovely wine late into the night admiring the stars and listening to the sea. The food was delicious although a bit expensive, but that is okay considering it is a stay inside the Tayrona National Park, far away from the city. The sea is dreamy and the beach where you can swim is a mere 5-minute walk away (in some other beaches of the Tayrona it is dangerous to swim and, therefore, prohibited). So, it was very handy to be so close to the safe beach. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and think this is the best place to stay in the Tayrona National Park!

Great family-run place in the middle of Tayrona Park! Breakfast was included and lovely, and the family was very helpful and caring. Possibility to have dinner in the evening time was very convenient and the food was nice and prepared with care. Amazing view in the middle of nature and we saw monkeys, birds and sloths right by the Mirador during our stay. Simple and nice rooms with fans for a decent and budget-friendly prize. We will definitely recommend staying at Mirador dentro del parque!

    For those wanting to hike the Tayrona trail, this resort is close by the entrance of the park, and it is a blessing to have this place nearby after hours of walking in the heat. I had a deep tissue massage after my walk and it was divine. My room was beautiful and spacious. Breakfast here is delicious and very generous. Highly recommend.

    Really nice jungle park. Definitely recommend.

    Really nice jungle park. Definitely recommend. I liked that there is a bus from the entrance of the park to the trailhead (2 miles - it's 5,000 cop). There are also guys who sell popsicles on the trail to Cabo San Juan and they are delicious. Great views along the way, the hike is really cool but it is a bit of a trek. There are lots of bugs because it is the jungle, so bug spray was essential. But, all in all it's pretty worth it. I also really liked visiting the other side of the park - Playa Cristal was beautiful, but there were no buses. Needed to hire a mototaxi to get there. I hope that will be different in the future! I heard there are buses that go there. Can't wait to go back

    First off, the hostel itself is incredible.

    First off, the hostel itself is incredible. It is extremely easy to access by bus from Santa Marta - we took the shuttle from the market downtown and we arrived at the El Zaino entrance within 40 minutes for 12 000 COP. From then it's a 350m walk to the hostel which is located above a few flights of stairs. The hostel is extremely clean and offers a panoramic view on the surrounding mountains. There is a pool and spa which are extremely well taken care of and the rooms are also very clean and spacious. While being well protected from the outsides at night, you get to fall asleep to the sounds of the insects and birds surrounding the hostel which was pretty cool. There is also a restaurant there where the employees cook fresh food for breakfast (free) and diner when your order. The food was amazing and cooked with love and at a cheaper price than at any other hostel we visited. Where the place shines above all however is the personnel and the customer service. Suzanna and Abraham are the only two people working there from our understanding and they make everything work perfectly. Both were very serviceable. Suzanna (I hope I am writing it correctly) went out of her way multiple times to make sure we had everything we needed and more. Not only does she offer 5 stars customer service, she cooks the food, works the reception, prepares the rooms, and offers massage services. From all the hostels / hotels we've visited while traveling, never have I written such a positive feedback on the property's staff and I mean every word of it. If you plan to visit Tayrona or the surrounding area, be sure to book your stay at this place.

    We reserved two nights but couldn't make it for the first due to a family emergency. Despite explaining, they said there were no options. After a phone call, someone promised to find a solution, but no one remembers the conversation. The location is terrible, far from the nicer beaches in Tayrona. Overpriced food; 40 meters away, you can get better food and an amazing view for the same price. WiFi doesn't work properly, but surprisingly, 40 meters away, it works perfectly. If you seek cheap accommodation, welcome, but don't expect anything more.

    The location in the park was second to none.

    The location in the park was second to none. The walks were excellent. The accommodation was lacking. We did a 12k walk to another beach which was lovely but I was informed there weren’t many other trails - that would be a shame if true.
