Inns in Santa Marta

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!

We loved our stay here and would very much hope to come back in the future! Having explored other parts of parque Tayrona this was by far our favourite beach. The relaxed atmosphere and friendly small businesses on the beach make you feel at home and although busy during the day it never felt crowded. Around 3pm the day visitors begin to leave and there is hardly anyone on the beach for the last couple of hours, which is amazing. The Mirador itself has stunning views and Naydu was a great host who made us feel very welcome along with the other staff. Would very much recommend staying here for a relaxed beach escape.

Mundo Nuevo is a kind a paradise. You get there for two nights, you end up staying three of four nights. The place is absolutely beautiful, the view is incredible. The rooms (dormitory) are comfortable. Everything is clean. Totally recomand that place.

Centrally located in Minca, at the beginning of the trail to Marinka waterfall, the guest house comes with all the rustic comfort of a place surrounded by beautiful and dense rainforest. The room was large, very clean and well equipped. We also enjoyed the laundry service, comfortable beds and the simple but tasty breakfast. The hosts were very hospitable and nice and ready to help us to make the most of our stay. The place is also very good for meeting other travellers, with a generous outside terrace overlooking the forest, the village and a local football field.

Nice friendly Clean good breakfast I only speak a little Spanish but managed to get thought liked the hotel
