I was worried we would be too remote from the hub in Minca to really enjoy the area, especially after experiencing the road up to the hostel, but I was wrong. Everything we needed was right there. We were more than happy to hike to all the things we wanted to see but you could just as easily take a moto or 4x4.
The food was great. The people were even better. We really didn’t want to leave.

Very nice and helpful people who work here. The hotel is surrounded by forest and located a 4-minute walk from the road and 10 minutes from the beach. There are shops and a restaurant along the road. Buses run to and from Tayrona National Park every 20 minutes. The ride also takes a few minutes. The room was clean and spacious with a view of the forest and ocean. An oasis of peace after busy Cartagena. Breakfasts (I chose Colombiano) were prepared immediately before each meal with fresh ingredients. A real treat. I highly recommend this place.

I was in doubt when I found out how far from Minca this location is (from Minca bus terminal 45min by moto) but it was one of the best decisions and favorite stays in Colombia!
Staff was very kind (Doris and two girls on their workaway, thank you for everything!), I was lucky enough that on the 1th night I was the only one in the dorm (which btw offers amazing view over Sierra Nevada!), food was really good, place is quite,... so make sure you will come for more than one night :)

Simple but thoughtfully done with natural materials (Stone and wood). Gorgeous seafront view with excellent key lock system. We were on the ground floor and right on the beach but felt totally safe. Good fan and more than enough to keep very cool (we even turned it down). Helpful staff who organised a taxi for onward transport. Great location right by the river mouth (swimming bit). Quiet chilled out vibe and not a party place which we liked.
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.
The owner was lovely and super interesting to talk to. Hotel is amazing value for money, very comfortable beds and nice and cool as the building is under the trees. Great location to walk from there to Marinka waterfalls too. Lovely breakfast cooked in front of you. Can't recommend highly enough, especially for the price! All feels very safe.
Staff so lovely and hostel so clean! Santa Marta the área isnt very safe nor has a lot going on so would be great if the upstairs bar offered more types of food or the restaurant downstairs opened later / served the people who are staying at the hostel upstairs however everything else was great and again, staff made the experience and did everything possible to make our stay comfortable.
Great location right on the beach, walking distance to much nicer hostels.
Beautiful authentic place in the jungle, clean rooms with nets and fans, laundry service, great staff, good food, free water and coffee, yoga class in the morning at the perfect spot 🌞 10/10 Next to the Calabazo Entrance, definitely take this one and stay one night in the park, you can leave your stuff at the hostel. Hammocks are fine and can be booked at the entrance (maybe don't take the cheapest one). Walk all the way and bring lots of water ;) There is a viewpoint on the way, don't miss it ~
One of the best hostels I've ever stayed. Lovely social area with a terrace and a pool, super friendly staff and beds with a lot of privacy even in shared rooms. Plenty of bathrooms available and always clean.
Everything! The best hostel in South America!! Natalia was amazing, helpful & beautiful!!!
Everything, the beds, the pool, the staff, the vibe, the view, the amenities and facilities. Best hostel of the trip
