Pros:

The vegetation around the hotel and gardens next to the pool are incredible ! Beautiful ferns, the rooms and all the bedsheets, pillows are really luxurious, food was very good. The hotel attendants are very nice always willing to help but they need more help they seem short of people. During the checkout everyone doing it at same time 11am was the longest boring wait with only one desk

Pros:

A Hidden Gem in the Colombian Mountains!

I had an absolutely unforgettable stay at Refugio Monte Oscuro. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel like I was among close friends or even family. Their warmth and hospitality truly made the experience special—every interaction was genuine and kind.

The resort itself is a beautiful collection of cozy cabins nestled in the heart of nature. The surroundings were breathtaking—lush greenery, fresh mountain air, and the peaceful sounds of nature all around. It’s the perfect place to relax, disconnect, and soak in the beauty of the outdoors. The river that is nearby is beautiful and the excursions offered by the hotel are incredible exepierences.

The food was another highlight. Every meal was fresh, flavorful, and made with care. You could really taste the quality and love put into every dish.

Overall, the environment was just amazing. Whether you're looking for tranquility, a romantic escape, or a place to reconnect with nature and good people, this place has it all. I can’t wait to go back!

Very poor
Pros:

- beds were extra small with synthetic matrass protections, very irritating
- jacuzzi was not filled
- water was missing for 2 hours in the morning
- loud pump was running for an hour to fill pumps.
- food was not good. They don't even have menu of what they can offer
- common pool was dirty
- they were very pushy promoting their extra experiences
The place was absolutely ripoff as far as I am concerned.

Pros:

super unique place to stay and lovely staff and food!

Cons:

as Full board and for the high price in Colombia it would be great if some extras were included for this but I understand you pay for the location and finish of the place

Literally heaven - not to be missed
Pros:

Quite simply the most incredible place I've ever been. The setting is lush, rainforest surrounded by verdant, colourful life. Each member of the team show a care and hospitality as though you're visiting their house. Each meal is thoughtful and delicious. The tours up river (particularly "Cascadas") showed me natural beauty that I didn't know was possible, especially when led by the amazing Dube. If you have the opportunity to stay here don't pass it up - you'll leave with warmth and beautiful memories.

Cons:

That I can't live here forever
