The hotel is located in a beautiful place very close to the Tayrona National Park, surrounded by astonishing tropical vegetation! The cabins are well-made, comfortable, they have a great bath and shower, and they offer incredible views from their balconies (in our case, of the vegetation and mountains). The personnel, in general, are accommodating and efficient (although not totally trained in local tourism).The location is great since it is 15 minutes away by car or bus to the Tayrona National Park and to the beaches of Mendihuaca / Costeño Beach (the best beaches nearby, besides the ones from the park). It is also 40 minutes away from the beaches of Palomino.
Now, let’s talk about some disappointments:
1. This hotel doesn’t offer a good getaway to the beach. The 10 minutes path to the beach from the reception of the hotel is nice (you walk through a tropical garden) until you get to an open sewage drainage and walk alongside this drainage. After this unpleasant section, you get to a small and public beach that has a local bar and restaurant.
2. The hotel’s restaurant is kind of pricey for the quality and quantity of the food. The menu is not small but doesn’t offer many healthy, vegetarian and varied options. The food also tends to be salty.
3. The pool is nice and meets its purpose, but is a small pool for the size of the hotel.
4. The staff is not trained to offer consistent suggestions and orientations about local destinations and activities.
