I was worried at first that this might be the wrong choice, since it’s a bit far from the park entrance and the main hiking trail. But this place turned out to be absolutely magical. I would recommend it to anyone. While sitting outside on the little terrace, I saw so much wildlife right in front of the cabin: two types of monkeys, an agouti, parrots, a sloth, a squirrel, iguanas, tons of birds, and even a snake. The cabin itself is super comfortable. It feels cozy, and the bed is really nice. Also, it’s easy to catch a small shuttle or bus from here to both the main park entrance and the starting point of the hike to Cabo San Juan, which makes it a really convenient base. Truly an unforgettable stay in Tayrona.

Angel and Ana were amazing, very dedicated and friendly staff. They made our stay even better. The location right in the park is great to reach the beaches by foot or get the bus after the entrance to get to them. The view on the jungle and room + facilities were great. The breakfast was delicious. We were staying at the mirador hotel in the park before and we had to change because of the poor quality of everything and the absence of wifi. We were glad to find Yachai even if we had to add a little more money to stay there. It was really worth it.

Property location was great. Easy to get to by local bus. The rooms were spotlessly clean. The water cold but as to be expected in this region and was refreshing after a long days walk! Food was good for an evening meal.
