The property was new and nicely decorated. The outdoor patio/bar was really nice. The hosts, Pilar and Jorge treated us like family and it was a very nice environment to relax. The beach was very close and so were some restaurants and grocery stores. Large, comfy bed in the room with air conditioning, as well as a balcony.

Super kind hosts, very attentive and friendly. Offered us Coffee & Mangoes when we arrived. The room was clean & comfortable, with an air-conditioned and a fan, and a big closet for storage. Quite neighborhood in a good location- easy to get to from other cities, and collectivos close by to any destination. Great value for money.

Sometimes you visit places you will never believe that they exist. This is by far one of the most beautiful places you will ever visit, with the friendliest people in the world. Three brothers lived with the indigenous people, the Kongui, for six months and then spent two years building detailed copies of the indigenous huts in a beautiful spot in the Colombian jungle. The view is amazing and,, Rambo, one of the two brothers, will happily take you to the top of a mountain at six in the morning, where you can see the sun rise and the jungle awake. The birds fly and the monkeys swing around your ears, while the howler monkeys are also happy to let you know that they are present. After the beautiful, but tough morning walk, Sebastian has prepared a delicious and hearty breakfast for you. The accommodation has just opened, two months before our visit, and is actually not completely finished yet. Hut three and four are still under construction. That is why there are very few reviews yet. Normally, you can not eat there yet, but we asked about the possibility and Sebastian went shopping especially for us so that we could also provide a meal in the evening, for about ten dollars per person, including home-made tamarind juice and an abundance of natural tea. We could use Sebatians binoculars during our walks in Tayrona National Park, and his snorkeling equipment die free and learned a lot about the Kongui culture. Horseback riding and even a visit to an indigenous people are also possible. Unfortunately we didn't have time for this anymore. However, we will definitely come back, because these people are amazing and the place is wonderful.

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.

Wow! What a cool and unique experience. Blue Dot sits on an incredible plot of land right next to the most beautiful clear river. The beds were super comfy, the vegan food very yummy, and Dan the host is absolutely lovely! This is perfect for those looking to slow down and reconnect with nature. Such a welcomed change from the touristy spots that dot the shoreline. Swimming in the river each morning was just the best. Thanks Dan!

Señora Catarina and Señor Robinson were so kind and heartful. We felt home from the very beginning. The garden is magic and we were allowed to pick fruits out of it for eating. We could also use the kitchen sometimes. The place is very peaceful and close to the beach and the river. The street is a little bit noisy but all the animal sounds let it go in the background. The breakfast was amazing! We did a walk with señor Robinson and he explained us a few things about Tayrona and the surroundings. A nice view into the real Columbian life. Thanks for everything!
