Guests at the guest house can take part in activities like yoga and get refreshed with a swim in the outdoor swimming pool. The guest house has a picnic area where you can spend a day out in the open. Great place to relax. We came here after finishing the Lost City Trek and this was perfect to recharge. When we went to Tayrona Park after, the owner helped us getting a ride with motor taxis and when it turned out I forgot something, he send a motor to bring it to us at the entrance to the park.

This property offers access to a balcony and free private parking. The guest house provides garden views, a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. This place is amazing. The owner, Victor, is incredibly friendly. He took care of my girlfriend and me, and he gave us precious tips with a smile. The swimming pool, the dining area and the rooms make it a perfect place to relax. Tayrona Park and the beaches are within comfortable reach. Furthermore, there are shops and other restaurants nearby. Our room was very romantic and had some naturalistic vibes. Definitely the highlight of our trip!

Featuring a private bathroom with a shower and free toiletries, units at the guest house also provide guests with free WiFi, while certain rooms here will provide you with a terrace. At the guest house, the units are equipped with bed linen and towels. It's a wonderful place to stay if you want peace and quiet and amazing views. The rooms had a balcony with stunning views, so did the shared terrace. The staff is very accommodating and helpful, they have a water refill station which is amazing as it reduces the amount of plastic and is very handy. The room is spacious, basic but has everything one needs. There's only cold water, but it's everywhere in this part of Colombia, just be prepared. We loved the location as it's away from the noise and pollution of Minca, but close enough to a couple of good restaurants (you must try the Japanese place 2 minutes away, the food was extra delicious and the owners are so lovely). The hidden waterfall is walkable distance too and it was our favourite one of them all - almost no people, clean and deep enough to swim. Another MUST DO is a visit to Plan B, it's a farm nearby where they do tours. It was the best experience we had so far.
