You can play table tennis at this hostel. El Rodadero Beach is 30 km from Ecolodge Playa Brava Teyumakke, while Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino is 24 km away. The nearest airport is Simón Bolívar International Airport, 36 km from the property. The peace and beauty of this beach deserves at least two nights. We were mostly served by Ruth and Kevin and they were incredible. It’s evident that everyone cares about their job and the experience of their visitors. We spent one night in a cabin and another in a hammock; both experiences were lovely and memorable. We took a moto taxi from Calabazo to the point where the descent starts and hiked down the mountain in 1h30min. This hike and place set us off onto a trip we will never forget.

Hostal velero relax is situated on the beachfront in Santa Marta, a few steps from Guachaca Beach and 42 km from Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino. The property is around 45 km from Santa Marta Gold Museum, 45 km from Santa Marta Cathedral and 46 km from Simon Bolivar Park. The hostel features a terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. This was an absolute surprise and perfect from start to finish. The family hosting this place is so loving and the place and the location just breathtaking! I started by reserving a room and then ended up sleeping on the last floor on just a mattress - so basic but the nature there is just incredible. steady waves and a bit of wind make it the perfect ambiance to sleep outside. No noise at all for cars as the place is located directly in front of the beach. I highly recommend you go there !

Calma Chicha is set on the beachfront in Santa Marta, a few steps from Guachaca Beach and 42 km from Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino. Located around 46 km from Santa Marta Gold Museum, the hostel with free WiFi is also 46 km away from Santa Marta Cathedral. Certain units at the property feature a balcony with a mountain view. You can't beat the location if you want to sleep on the beach or need to unplug. It's a small fishing/surfing village, with a touristic twist. The waves are quite intense so swimming may or may not be a good idea depending on the waves. We enjoyed watching the fisherman putting the boats in the water in the morning, the whole community comes to help. Don't expect a 5 star hotel with all the amenities, this isn't it. It's a wonderful little spot on a beautiful beach. The internet works. It's accessible by bus and a half a mile walk (or moto ride). It's also a short bus ride to the entrance of Tayrona Park. We absolutely loved sleeping with the sound of the waves.
