    Absolutely amazing experience. You sleep in a facility surrounded by nature and wake up to watch aras, peacocks and humming birds close-by. We even spotted a tortoise and a group of turkeys passing us. The food was surprisingly good, given the periphere location. Nice staff and the pool and pool table invite to relax while watching birds Not much there to like. It was probably the best stay we ever had. The staff in the restaurant could be a bit more attentive and it would be beneficial if they spoke at least rudimental English for non-speaking customers.

    Amazing stay Too many locals occuping the pool area, especially with noisy kids.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    The grounds and facilities are gorgeous and well maintained, beautiful flowers, plants, trees, all kinds of birds, fish, monkeys and peacocks roaming around it’s amazing.The buildings and rooms are beautiful. We arrived late and they were waiting for us and even kept the kitchen open and allowed us to order dinner after normal hours. We are very appreciative and since we live nearby plan to visit often.

    Rooms were small and not very private on the ground floor.

    There are lots of animals around the property—parrots, peacocks, hummingbirds, and even monkeys—so keep your balcony doors closed if you don’t want surprise visitors ? They also stored our luggage for free while we stayed in the park, which was really convenient. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to use the balcony since the peacocks made it their camp and pooped all over it.

    So many birds on the property! You can enjoy a morning watching all the hummingbirds come to the feeders in the dining area, and the property has peacocks, quail, and a macaw on the property. Sort of resort vibes given that there's not much more to do around, but the facilities are wonderful. Breakfast is solid and normal. Spa was fine. They did not have most of the vegetarian food that was on their menu (no beans, yuca, lentils, etc).

    Perfect stay before going to Tayrona national park. They stored our luggage for free while we visited the park. Nice swimming pool and good food!

  • Engine customer Aug 2025

    The amazing staff, the kitchen, restaurant, the animals, the landscape, the charm, the pool , the location. It was one of my most enduring experiences and we travel nonstop It’s not the property’s fault but it is a jungle and only suggestively they should invest in better sealed windows and doors. But it’s not anything that would stop me from visiting again and again

    The drain in the shower for room 7 doesn’t work so water would fill up at your feet when showering. Internet didn’t work too well but isn’t a bad thing because your in nature to relax

    This is a magical place! We loved everything about it--it's beautiful, clean, comfortable, great food, lots of plants and animals, and the staff were lovely. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

    Amazing location close to Tayrona National Park and a beautiful hotel! Room was clean and comfortable, food in the restaurant was delicious, and all of the staff were very friendly. I really enjoyed my stay there!

  • Engine customer Apr 2025

    The hotel was very nice, the people very kind. The hotel is not close to the Tayrona park, but was ok The ☕ was very expensive.

    We stayed 2 nights at this resort. For location, it was perfect for us being able to walk to the Calabazo entrance of the park. The room was a good size and the bed comfortable. A mosquito net is included which we used at night. We ate at the restaurant for included breakfasts and dinner on both nights. The portion sizes are large and food quite good. The pool area looked quite nice but the water itself didn't seem very clean and the jets weren't running to keep the water moving. Maybe it's because we seemed to be some of the only people staying in the resort during our stay. Small thing as everything else was exactly as we needed.

    Beautiful property, like living in a garden full of exotic birds. Restaurant on site is really good with huge selection of items. We enjoyed every meal. Highlight was watching all the hummingbirds come to the feeders all day long. Don’t forget Maya the friendly and crazy macaw that yells hola at you. Very quiet at night with large pools and hammocks to relax in. Tayrona National Park main entrance is a short bus ride away. Very easy to get back and forth. Lovely place, make sure you ask them to turn on the hot water heater for you.

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    Let’s start with the good: this is a beautiful place! It’s spacious outside, the pool looks lovely, there’s lots of greenery and gardens that are pleasant to be around. Some of the staff are absolute angels and go the extra mile to help. However… we were there on a busy day and that meant that the restaurant took over the whole operation. When we arrived we couldn’t check in at first, pretty annoying coming back dirty from 3 days in Tayrona. Then when we wanted to relax, the pool was completely overrun with families and loud music. We sat somewhere at the back of the garden, but then everytime we wanted a drink we had to walk over and ‘bother’ the waiters in the restaurant to give us something, and it just felt like we were annoying to them. During the night there was extremely loud music from next door that kept us awake (we stayed here on 2 separate nights and it was the same the other night). So despite having a few lovely people on staff and beautiful garden close to the park entrance, we would not recommend this place to our friends.
