We raden de boomhut erg aan!
Pros:

Prachtige locatie in het bos, waar we in een hele boomhut hebben geslapen. Helaas hadden we kort daarvoor voedselvergiftiging opgelopen waardoor we allebei veel in bed doorbrachten, maar gelukkig was Hugo ontzettend behulpzaam en bood hij zelf aan om voor ons naar het dorp te gaan voor de nodige medicatie en boodschappen. We zouden hier zeker terugkomen!

Todo muy bonito y la atención excelente. La primera vez que vimos una piscina natural y nos pareció increible. Perfecto para desconectarse descansar y visitar el parque Tayrona.

Pros:

I loved the whole concept. It's right in the middle of nature, frogs, colibris, toucans and amazing plants. The best for us was to sleep in a treehouse, it was a dream come true! Also we loved having a kitchen so we were able to prepare something simple and healthy.

Cons:

The place is truly amazing. The only thing is thhut if you really wanted you could see into the bathroom, maybe a small curtain would help :) but its not at all a reason not to come.

Super ! génial pour visiter le parc Tayrona
Pros:

L'hôte a été d'une grande aide pour nous indiquer les alternatives de bus (car nous avions eu des problèmes de transports pour arriver). Il a été très flexible sur l'heure d'arrivée, nous avions pu tout gérer par Whatsapp pour l'arrivée et l'avons rencontré le lendemain matin. La chambre était très agréable, avec le bruit de la jungle et du ruisseau pour nous bercer. La salle de bain était très sympathique également. Nous sommes arrivés tard et sommes repartis tôt le lendemain, donc nous n'avons pas pu profiter des équipements communs mais cela avait l'air très sympathique. L'emplacement pour démarrer le parc Tayrona par l'entrée Calabazo est parfait !

Pros:

Quede enamorada de este lugar. Mi estadía en la casa del árbol fue perfecta. Quería explorar el Tayrona por un par de días y desearía haber tenido más tiempo, principalmente para quedarme mas aca. Cómodo y al aire libre, dormí de maravilla con el mosquitero y el ventilador. Se sintió muy tranquilo. El parque está a poca distancia caminando; Felipe me envió un mapa y me dio recomendaciones. Mi parte favorita fueron los manantiales naturales a los que se puede llegar caminando desde la propiedad. ¡10/10! ¡Gracias de nuevo!

Best stay in Colombia
Pros:

I can honestly say this was the most unique place I have ever stayed in Colombia. We booked the Treehouse for two nights, and it felt like a childhood dream. Waking up elevated among the canopy, listening creek and the birds, was absolutely surreal.
The property is a total oasis. After a hot day, dipping into the natural pool was incredibly refreshing—much better than a chlorinated pool! We spent our evenings reading in the hammocks with just the sound of running water and crickets in the background. Also, you cannot beat the location; being just 5 minutes from the Tayrona Park entrance allowed us to be first in the morning without any stress. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to disconnect and recharge!

Priceless experience in Tayrona
Pros:

This place is what I was looking for, somewhere quiet to escape the noise. The lodge is perfectly integrated into the jungle. The constant sound of the creek flowing through the property is perfect to rest.
Drinking coffee in the hammock and watching toucans and squirrels in the tree is priceless. The natural pool is stunning and feels very private. Even though you feel miles away from civilization, you are only 5 minutes from the Tayrona entrance, making it easy to do day trips. If you want the full experience, try to book the Treehouse; it offers the best views of the forest.

Penso non si dovrebbe chiamare hotel , è più una guest house, capanna sull’albero, affascinante ma non con i servizi di
Pros:

Prossimità al parco Tayrona , immersa nella natura, gentilezza e disponibilità del proprietario sempre pronto ad aiutare
Le amache e la zona comune,c anche se la piscina è in realtà una vasca per i pesci, di notte si sentono le rane che gracidano, è un posto per rilassarsi

Cons:

Il fatto che non si potessero veramente chiudere le stanze, suggerirei di cambiare la chiave arrugginita perchè chiuda meglio
Il posto poi si è rivelato safe ma comunque siamo in Colombia , viaggiavo sola, avrei preferito un pó più di sicurezza all’inizio, penso sia il minimo poter chiudere la porta prima di uscire.
Inoltre il percorso per arrivare un pò wild,
Se si arriva con una valigia a rotelle risulterà un pò faticoso, c’è un piccolo guado da attraversare essendoci un ruscello, scale per salire su un ponte e discesa, piú salita fino alla struttura.
Alla sera è buio il percorso per rientrare alla struttura che è invece ben illuminata.
