    N/A (but don't forget the insect repellent!)

    Beautiful lodges with the most amazing views of Tayrona National Park. Friendly staff and delicious meals. Highly recommend the massages - very good value! Great location for visiting the park as the local bus stops right outside every 15 minutes! Loved the pool and the chill out areas.

    One of the person who helps out for the kitchen order doesn’t seem to realize I’m there whilst he’s serving everyone else, unsure the reason. But overall it’s great!

    Great location, only mins away from the main entry to the park by motor or car and walkable distance as well. Beautifully decorated, one of the few that looks better than the photo! Each cabin has its own private little hills that allows you to relax in your own realm. And the chef is amazing! Probs the best food I’ve had at a hotel thorough-out my trip! The receptionist is super helpful and friendly as well! And! Definitely try the massage there, on top of the hill - great view and very relaxing treatment

    The walkways were steep and rain made them somewhat slick, which could be hazardous for some. More banisters might be helpful.

    The food was excellent and the view was gorgeous. The staff was very helpful and courteous, our stay here was a highlight of our trip, and very close to Tayrona National Park. The massages were wonderful, the room was very comfortable and the pool was lovely. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

    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.

    Nothing :)

    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!
