    The whole place is beautiful, the lodges and location was perfect to visit Tayrona Park but also some other locations like Buritaca and Palomino. The view from the lodge is perfect to see the beautiful sunsets that Santa Marta has to offer, the staff overall were a 100/10 Will definitely come back 💙

    Next to it is a hostal with loud music. I stayed at the top bungalow, so closest to the hostal and it annoyed me a bit I have to admit. Nothing the hotel can do about.

    Really amazing view! Santiago was great, pool is great, room is great and the beds are the best o have ever had. I loved it!

    The rooms were lovely but the beds were very hard and not comfortable. There was also no fridge in the room but they did let us keep some leftovers in theirs (however we could not chill our beers or drinks)

    The lodge is magical. It has amazing views, feels like a luxury resort. There are local restaurants to walk to or the restaurant at the lodge was really good. Their Pina coladas were delicious and the pool was a nice treat after a long day of hiking. The staff at the lodge are exceptional. Very helpful and professional.

    The hotel was really nice and had lovely views of the Tayrona park. The personnel was very nice and helpful and the restaurant food was very good too. We really enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is located 3 minutes by car from the main entrance to the National Park and hotel can organise taxis for guests.

    Absolutely loved this place! We stayed here 4 nights in the room "Sewa" it the highest one so it pretty private. The pool is clean and the views are beautiful. Wifi is available in common areas which forced us to disconnect even more when in our room. Overall i would encourage everyone to stay here. The staff was great and the resident cat Artemisa as well!! The food and drinks were great!

    It was a bit close to the highway so you hear the road traffic and horns in the night, but this is no different than most other accommodations in the area.

    Staying here was one of the best decisions we made on our trip. We spent the previous two days hiking in Tayrona so this provided a much needed dose of relaxation. The staff were so friendly and helpful, the rooms and facilities were gorgeous, and the meals were delicious (and well priced for their size).

    Unreliable electricity during our stay, not having wifi can be tricky and the rooms are dark without light! But this wasn’t all of the time.

    Very friendly staff, lots of delicious food and a really amazing view with 10/10 sunsets! Plenty to do in the lodge even if you’re not going out on a hike. Free breakfast was great and filling for the day.

    I recently stayed at Hotel Quetzal Dorado Eco-Lodge and had an unforgettable experience. The staff, especially Helena, were incredibly welcoming and made me feel at home from the moment I arrived. The accommodations were comfortable, blending seamlessly with the surrounding environment. The food was delicious, prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Overall, I highly recommend Hotel Quetzal Dorado for anyone seeking a peaceful retreat in nature. I can't wait to return!
