The wifi occasionally dropped out and we had a few black outs secondary to stormy weather.

The huts were super cute and cosy, bed was very comfortable and the bathrooms felt luxurious. The pool was an essential in the Colombian heat and well utilised by us. I strongly recommend the massage parlour !

I stayed at Eco Hostal Yuluka as a solo traveller to explore Tayrona Nationalpark. The Hostal is extremely well located, just a 30 minute walk or a 3 minute bus ride from the East entrance El Zaino. The Hostal is very clean and the dorms with mosquito nets and huge lockers. Isabella and Klara from the reception were a delight and also Mike from the restaurant was kind and extremely helpful, I felt very looked after and welcomed. They also practised Spanish with me, muchas gracias por eso :) Overall a wonderful stay and I would definitely stay here again in the future!

Nothing, I loved everything!

I loved my stay at the Eco Hostal Yuluka, it was absolutely beautiful. The staff were amazing, so helpful and lovely to talk to for advice and tips on onward travel. Mike was amazing, so helpful and went above and beyond to make my stay relaxing. The food was delicious and the rooms were stunning. Thank you so much for making my stay so memorable and welcoming. 🫶🏻

The road was next to property.

The hut up in the trees. Lots of wildlife. Iguanas bugs bats even saw a tiny snake

The hostel dogs bark a lot (including at night) so if you’re staying in the rooms close to the reception area, it may be annoying.

Beautiful grounds. Staff (especially Miguel) were amazing and had helpful tips. Free shuttle to park entrance was great and so was the free laundry. The food was really tasty and they could cater for vegans well. The private room we stayed in was nice and big and felt very private.

Beautiful place surrounded by nature and close to the national park Tayrona entrance. They have a good restaurant where we could order fish or meat for dinner and also a small pool. It was so relaxing, we really enjoyed our stay here.

Great location to go to the park, they drove us there in the morning, and the rooms were really cool with the thatched roofs and the bathroom design. Overall a great stay!

Breakfast could have been a bit better and it’s very loud due to its location at the Main Street. For me it was ok because thar made it very accessible.

I really enjoyed my stay! Everything was comfortable and clean, staff was amazingly friendly and me and my friend could store our luggage to go to Tayrona, it has a social vibe, I liked the food in the restaurant and the cute dogs strolling around.

Just the road noise.

This was better than expected! The room was spacious, lots of places to lounge, hot water shower and helpful staff. I’d highly recommend it!

There are no individual outlets and reading lights in the bunk beds. I’ve had dinner at the restaurant and the food was a bit plain and tasteless.

This hostel is AMAZING! One of the best I’ve been in Colombia so far. It’s an incredibly relaxing place, quiet and cool, with lots of common spaces. Rooms and baths are clean, music stops at 10 PM. The staff is great!! They know a lot about Tayrona Park and can help you with your plans. There’s a free shuttle to the El Zaino Entrance at 8 AM.

Everything was perfect 👌

The locks from the inside of the room were weak, it was fine locking from the outside though. The breakfast was basic, not amazing.

Good location very near to Tayrona National Park, we liked that it had its own kitchen so we could make our own evening meals. Nice pool and the room we were in was very spacious with a nice outside shower and it had a massive balcony with 2 hammocks. I want to particularly shout out Miguel who was really helpful, answering our questions and giving advice. We liked being surrounded by nature and spotted an iguana by the pool! If you don’t like being immersed in nature though then this isn’t the place for you.

The staff was a huge cherry on top of this beautiful boutique hotel. Mike and Sharon really went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable as well as sharing a wealth of knowledge of northern Colombia! Seriously, thank you so much! The spa... OMG, the spa! My fiance and I booked spa packages together on our last morning at Yuluka and both agreed that it was one of the best massages and spa packages we have ever had. My fiance has experiences with spas all over the world. So definitely treat yourself to one of the best and least expensive spa experiences in the world. Our masseuses, Liz and Margaret were incredible! Yuluka is much more like a boutique hotel than a hostel. It does have laundry and kitchen facilities common to nice hostels. But the private rooms and beauty of the grounds are Four Star boutique hotel level. There are many stairs to get around the grounds, but rather than feeling burdensome, it created a feeling of privacy and tranquility with the many levels and spaces for lush flora and fauna. The rooms are expansive and comfortable. We stayed in early January 2025. The overhead fan was adequate to cool us off at night through the mosquito net. We would have enjoyed a couple side tables and/or chairs in the room, but I think the mosquito net and patio hammocks are the reason for their absence. The room and bathroom were clean and tidy when we arrived and the room was cleaned and bed made during our 2 night stay. There were some tiny millipedes that found their way into the room, but that was of no surprise in the lush tropical forest locale of the hotel and common across most of our lodging while traveling for two weeks in northern Colombia. Roughly half of the walls of our room were mesh screened to allow breeze to cool the room. There were curtains that also allowed air flow, but didn't block all view into the rooms at night with interior lights on. Not a problem for us and there was almost no foot traffic by our room.

The complementary breakfast was light, but delicious. The kitchen staff even made us a quick breakfast special when we were cutting it close for the Tayrona Park shuttle. The drinks and dinner at the restaurant were wonderful and very affordable. The pool was beautiful, albeit a tiny bit cloudy. We didn't swim, despite intentions to do so after hiking the park because we were just too tired.

The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The hostal is in a beautiful location in the jungle and the food was exceptional. We stayed in the baranquero room for a night and it was so beautiful. The pool was lovely and had a slide. We also had massages which we really enjoyed and would definitely recommend. Stayed here for a night before going to tayrona and loved it so much that we booked in for another night when we came back.

The only complaint I had was that the room and bathroom had these wormy millipede looking bugs that managed to get in and they would crawl until they were dead on the floor or in the tub. I'm not sure what can be done to keep out bugs in the jungle but that was a bit annoying.

They have a nice pool near the entrance to enjoy, and I surprisingly didn't find myself covered in mosquito bites after sitting there to read at dusk (I am their favorite food). The young man who checked me in was nice and carried my luggage up the rather long stairs to the rooms. Remember when you're visiting that the property is on a hill and the rooms are up above the pool and check-in. They have a nice outdoor restaurant space and a good menu that they will cook for you, and I got a ham and cheese toastie for breakfast to take on my hike in the park. The location is just about 5 minutes from the entrance and they were so nice to drop me off since there weren't other guests going that morning. I could take a motorbike back that afternoon for about 3.000 pesos.
