Ecohotel Yachay Tayrona dentro del Parque Tayrona, hotel in El Zaino

Inside Tayrona Park, 33 km from Santa Marta, Ecohotel Yachay Tayrona dentro del Parque Tayrona features a terrace and views of the mountain. Guests can enjoy the gourmet restaurant.

It is beautiful and surrounded by nature, loved seeing/hearing some animals (toads, birds, foxes, monkeys). Breakfast and dinner were good. I liked the jacuzzi reservation system. The staff is lovely and very helpful. I read some people complained about the lack of hot water but with the heat in the area I quite enjoyed the temperature.

Hostal Paraíso Tayrona Kogui, hotel in El Zaino

Hostal Paraíso Tayrona Kogui is located in Santa Marta, 700 metres from Castilletes Beach and 36 km from Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino.

Sometimes you come to a place and you feel connection right away. Right from the long stair walk and a wooden bridge you realize that this people love their place and the nature around it. They really put their hearts in what they are doing. The place is lost in the mountain. For me was very impacting that the houses to sleep are built by 3 brothers with their own hands using nature friendly technology meaning no trees cutted only fallen woods and vines, they conserved true Cogui architecture that makes your stay really magical. Houses are comfortable with private bathroom each. Surprisingly No mosquitos in the room. Wild animals are your neighbors sometimes they show up, we managed to see fox, sloth, monkeys and we hear the roar from the jungle from time to time=). My family felt very welcomed here (my mother and 2 children). We ended up staying for 4 days and children had lots of fun exploring the nature and learning about Tayronas culture and see real artifacts the owners keep. The food is freshly cooked very tasty ... papaya right from the tree absolutely organic, water from the mountain stream that is portable. You feel very peaceful in this place. This is the perfect place to connect with the nature and enjoy the Tayrona park long walks. Location is close to the park ticket office. Down the mountain you have a small bus 5000COP that brings you to the walking tracks entrance ("Parqueadero" for vans and horses=) and a wild beach that is relatively in a short walking distance, very beautiful. We are happy we met this nice hosts who managed to pass us a spirit of their land and Tayrona culture. For us it was a great experience!

Mirador Playa Cristal Tayrona, hotel in El Zaino

Mirador Playa Cristal Tayrona has a garden, private beach area, a terrace and restaurant in Santa Marta. Featuring a bar, the property is located within 1.5 km of Playa Neguanje.

What Naydu and and her family established in this remote place is just incredible. The hard work, skills and dedication that go into bringing that kind of comfort into this quiet remote location cannot be overstated. The rooms are simple but very well constructed and I slept like a baby. Even though the first night we were subjected to quite a strong storm hitting the coast. The hearty and diligent service they provide from the delicious meals to logistical help and anything one might need is beyond words. Truly a pearl in this most beautiful part of the world. Greetings and much love to Naydu and her family who made me feel at home from day one up to being dropped off safely on a public bus to continue my journey.

Villa Playa Tayrona, Los Naranjos, hotel in El Zaino

Located in Los Naranjos, 200 metres from Los Naranjos Beach, Villa Playa Tayrona, Los Naranjos provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace.

The location of Villa Playa Tayrona is unbeatable and the view over the rio piedra flowing into the ocean is amazing. The food is great and the staff is smiling and attentive to your needs, whether it is for transportation requests or info on daily excursions, Johana has been very helpful. Also Emanuel on the sister lodge Casabambu has been very nice allowing us to use the Playa Tayrona facilities while at Casa Bambu in the last two days. The atmosphere of the lodge is laid back in beautiful surroundings. The location is strategic being 5 minutes by car from the entrance of the Tayrona Park.

    Laidback wooden oasis in the middle of the rainforest. Lovely views, and on the rustic side. So if that’s your vibe, you’ll like it here. Decent food & drink options onsite, though they can take a long time to prep - so just don’t be in a rush!

    This was a perfect location to enjoy Tayrona park. The family that runs this place is so lovely and accommodating, I just wish I was better at Spanish so I could have chatted with them more. We left our bags here while we were I. The park which saved us a headache. We bought dinner at the property for a good price and it was delicious, thank you so much!!

    I was happy to stay in hotel Jasayma after a long hike through the park. The room was everything we needed, comfy bed, bathroom and shower. We really enjoyed breakfast and dinner that was served to us. Lovely place to stay while in Tayrona Park. The ladies in the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Unique experience staying over night in the park! Close to the entrance.

    I loved the outdoor shower - you could see the trees and hear all the animals whilst you were showering. The room was comfortable and I love the fact it's semi-open also. The staff were great and the breakfast was good. We had dinner one evening and it was quite good, and we shared one, which was big enough for two people. The location's good because it's close to the entrance so you can walk there from the main entrance.

    The room was ideally located for spending 1 night before entering Tayrona. The main entrance to the park is less than a 5 minute walk down the road. The room was spacious and the breakfast/dinner were nice. It was noisy at night, however, with dogs barking for long periods of time on the property, which made it difficult to get a good nights sleep.

    Breakfast was decent, lunch and dinner low level! Location was good and the space inside the hotel is nice! However, communication and the quality of services not that good!
