What an incredible set up, a beautiful room over looking the river and the jungle, a terrace to sit and relax on, even a jacuzzi! You can also walk down to the river and take a dip if you fancy. It was beautifully clean and felt like a little romantic oasis in the jungle. So so close to the park - a moto taxi there will take you about two minutes. Two lovely doggies and amazing hosts - they even walked us to our bus stop to help us catch the right bus!

The hotel is a bit further away from the park, if you take the colectivo it will take around 10mn. It's super cute, super calm, and well managed. We only stayed one night, but it was great. You can pay by card too ! Yes, the water is cold, but if you've been traveling around Colombia for a bit, it won't be frightened you

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The atmosphere in this place is amazing, really relaxed and chill staff and guests. The food and the drinks delicious and affordable! The pool clean and refreshing. Sleeping in a cabin basically outside was such a cool experience, felt safe and exciting, would recommend! Definitely the best hostel we have been out of all 10 during one month in Colombia.

Apart from the road to get there everything is AMAZING about this hostel! Couldn’t recommend it more. One of the, if not thé, best hostel I’ve stayed in. Beautiful (outdoor!!) rooms, a big area to wander around and get lost in and such a good place to meet people. The vibe was completely right!

The location is amazing!! So beautiful, with views of the jungle and the hills. There is múltiple places to chill, including pool, bath, net, swing and chairs. The food is amazing, definitely best hostel food I've ever had!! Its close enough to tayrona, el zaino entrance to walk (about 35 mins) plus some of it through the jungle which is beautiful. The staff were great, lots of volunteers who also speak English. We stayed in the hobbit room, outside shower and comfortable space.

Calm and refreshing place to chill near the jungle, early in the morning you can even see some monkeys ! The hosts are so nice, and will help you with everything. The bed was comfy, the sound of the rivier and the nature to fall a sleep. The food from the host is really good, and cheap. The rivier down the hostel is really good for swimming or chilling on the rock. There are some waterfall to visit and Tayrona entrance (El Zaino) is really close

The view from the room was beautiful, we could see some animals during the day and night, the hostel is good for meeting new people from around the world as they propose a variety of common areas, the food they sell is pretty tasty as well. In general it has a good location if you plan to visit the Tayrona Park.
