Bonito lugar con el desafío de estar en la naturaleza

Estar rodeados de naturaleza

Cons:

Por estar en un lugar aislado se sacrifican comodidades.

Alojamiento dentro del Tayrona 100% recomendable
Pros:

La ubicación perfecta dentro del parque del Tayrona en plena naturaleza y la terraza que bordeaba toda la cabañita con una vistas increíbles!
El desayuno estaba delicioso y la amabilidad del personal.

Cons:

La cabañita era para 4 personas, sin embargo, solo tenían mosquitera para la cama doble, la literas no tenía mosquitera. Además, los colchones de las literas eran muy duros, por lo que todo ello dificultó un buen descanso.

El personal y el servicio muy amables, ya que tuvimos un problema con el vuelo y se adaptaron a las circunstancias. La comida excepcional. El entorno y las vistas muy bonitas. Había dos ventiladores en la habitación y se agradecían mucho.

Cons:

Había algún bicho en la habitación pero es comprensible por el espacio en el que está. Los colchones de las camas eran muy duros.

Thank you, Alex and Lily, for the wonderful hospitality!
Pros:

This is an awesome family-run little spot, right inside the park. We were SO GRATEFUL to be inside the park when it unexpectedly shut down! We had a whole day with the park and beaches almost entirely to ourselves, and we were set since we were already in :) Simple accommodations, clean, yummy food that you're so grateful to have hot and ready for you when you're back from a long day of trekking! Cabo San Juan is about 2.5-3hr hike (40m of that is just the part on the road, which you can grab the collectivo bus for), and the closest beach is La Piscinita, a 1hr hike (again, just 20m once you're at the parking lot). Don't miss the "9 Piedras" mindful jungle walk by the entrance as well, it is one of the local indigenous (the Kogui) tribes' orientation (with signs in Spanish) to some of the meaningful formations.

Cons:

The fans were strong but still def a little warm in the room! Honestly, given it's the jungle, it was way less hot than we expected (and Santa Marta was wayyy hotter). No warm/hot water, but you don't really need it with the hot days. The next door property of his brother also has a little pool you can dunk in and some pool you can play!

Hermosa estadía
Pros:

El alojamiento está super prolijo, limpio, cómodo. Lo mejor de todo es la vista que tienen las cabañitas, realmente hermoso despertarse viendo tanto verde, las montañas y los guacamayos.

Cons:

No es cerca de las playas, hay que ir en van primero y luego hacer una buena caminata, pero vale la pena quedarse dentro del parque

Unique location with very friendly staff, frequently visited by macaws
Pros:

We were received by a very friendly family that went out of their way to make our stay in the park comfortable and special. Every day they took our order for dinner so that when we came from our day of hiking in the park, a warm and delicious meal would await us.

The location of this hotel is a little off the main road that leads to the entrance of the park, in the middle of a forested area. There are two ways to reach it from the main road. In the morning breakfast is served and the hotel is visited by Macaws that are not at all afraid of humans and curiously come to the restaurant area and sometimes even climb up to sit on your shoulder. A unique experience! Macaws are known for returning to the same spots often, especially to eat something, so chances are high you will see some up close at this hotel.

The room was a little stone building with a bathroom ensuite. All quite basic, and without airconditioning. With the flat roof it gets very hot inside. There are fans to keep you a bit cooler at night and over the couple bed was a mosquito net to protect from biting insects. As we spent all our daytime hiking and exploring the park, the basic room suited our needs to just sleep and therefore met our expectations.

We left very early to take a flight elsewhere. For a little fee the owner and his son brought us and our luggage by motorcycle to the entrance of the park so we could catch the bus to Santa Marta there. It is possible to walk to the entrance but it is a good 1-1,5km and with suitcases not the most comfortable way.

All in all, we had a great stay in this wonderful park and great accommodation. Wholeheartedly recommended!

P.s.: the wall plugs at the terrace in front of the hut are a very useful and smart addition! We sat outside till late because of the heat inside. It allowed us to charge our equipment. Also the WIFI worked perfectly in and outside the room.

P.p.s.: Take a picture of the park map that hangs in the restaurant area.

Cons:

There are two ways to reach the hotel from the main road. Upon arrival at the park, the driver of the collectivo dropped us at the second one. There was a sign saying El Eden, but a little further on that road there was no sign to take a left turn. We struggled a little to find it at first and asked two people working at other accommodations for directions. A little sign upon the crossroad would have helped a lot to find it more easily.

The room could be greatly upgraded in level of comfort with an airconditioning unit. Due to the flat roof it was very very warm inside. Much hotter than outside. We knew beforehand that there would be no airconditioning, so it is not a complaint. More a recommendation to easily upgrade the level of comfort in the room.

Remanso de paz y naturaleza, instalaciones básicas
Pros:

Las vistas son increíbles, el amanecer es muy bonito y hay muchísimos pájaros y otros animales, pudimos ver tucanes y guacamayos.
El personal es muy amable.

Cons:

La habitación es muy sencilla, la cama bastante justa para dos personas. Hay muchísimos insectos, pero es de esperar estando rodeado de tanta naturaleza, solo para que lo sepan.
El desayuno fueron huevos revueltos y pan, podrían añadir un jugo o algo de fruta..
Está a 15 minutos andando de la entrada del parque y a 1 hora andando del parqueadero donde empieza la ruta a cabo san Juan.
