    The food was mainly basic and too expensive for the prices they were being charged for, we opted to visit other hostels down the beach looking for other options and found more varied menus with really good food at cheaper prices. If they want to keep charging the same that’s fine, but improve the food quality to match it.

    The cabins and facilities are beautiful, it’s a great getaway spot to stay at if you plan on resting at the beach away from noisy tourists.

    The food options were a bit limited and because of how it is situated about a 15-minute walk to the main street and another 25 minutes to the next Pueblo, I felt a bit limited with the food options. Fruit was only available for breakfast and the lunch and dinner options were really heavy foods.

    Beautiful location, quiet and tranquil, loved the hammock and lounger amenities offered on the beach. Nice bar and restaurant. The bed was comfortable with functional mosquito nets and towels, soap and shampoo provided making this a great place to stay for a few days with just a day pack. Extended my stay and would loved to come again.

    The rooms are not isolated, there is only one ventilator at the ceiling which makes it very hot. The double beds are very small. Be aware of the coconuts ;-)

    I would greatly appreciate some more veggie/vegan options in the restaurant since it is an Eco accommodation.

    Very friendly staff and an awesome location (close to Tayrona, Ciudad perdida and much more)! Great place to chill and just turn off, relax, and get some nice rest. The bed was comfy and the mosquito net was a must, but expect to be bitten nonetheless :D

    Staff was extremely slow and unhelpful. Shampoo was not provided. We asked for a hair dryer to be borrowed (as we had a wedding to attend) but they had none. Breakfast was extremely slow. Our room has been cleaned only once in our 4 days stay. The cleaners came so early that we were still in bed, they never came after this to check and clean the room.

    Love the location and the eco cabanas. Loved the outdoor showers.

    If you’re uncomfortable being up close and personal with nature then this maybe isn’t for you! It was also extremely quiet while we were there - maybe because it was mid week

    Incredible nature and wildlife, big room and loved the outside bathroom. Nice beds on the beach too.

    The property is on a beautiful beach, which unfortunately was too rough for swimming but we were happy just to watch the waves. There are shaded lounge chairs and hammocks on the beach. The cabins are spaced far apart from each other and have a terrace with hammock outside. The outdoor bathroom was a cool feature! It was fun showering while looking up at the swaying palm trees. The staff were all super friendly. It was a great place to completely relax after doing the Lost City hike. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a quiet place off the beaten path to relax.

    Juana, just a rude person. She walked away part way through our conversation. She was aggressive. I’m suggest she chooses another career that doesn’t involve dealing with people. Hospitality isn’t not the right one for someone who has no manners or social skills

    Spacious beach hut. Good fan & mosquito net. Loved the outdoor bathroom. Very peaceful, lovely beach with comfy sunbeds with shade. Food was good enough. Avelado was very polite & worked hard. Elianis was very helpful when I had issues with my bank cards & phone, thanks again.

    I wouldn't say these are negative points but more like things to take into consideration before coming: there can be insects in the bedroom since most of the cabins are not completely closed. Wi-Fi works in the common area only and some cabins didn't have signal. There is no swimming pool so if the sea is on a red-flag, you won't be able to swim. Last, our mosquito net in the bedroom had a hole on top of it.

    The hotel staff was welcoming and available - the kitchen even made us a meal that was not on the menu because we were sick. The common area and rooms were clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The hotel has access to the beach, even though the sea current was dangerous during our stay. Breakfast was good and the menu offered a wide range of possibilities for both lunch and dinner. Tayrona park is only a ten-minute drive away and you can walk by the sea-side to either Buritaca or Valencia waterfalls.

    The requested information about getting there and leaving by public transport (bus from/to Riohacha) was simply not correct: From the main road it does definitely take more than 8 minutes walking with your luggage from the main road to Playa Bonita and it is not as easy to catch a bus at the main road, you have to go to Buritaca. The last night of our stay there was no way of sleeping because of a wedding with very loud music, that we were not informed about before.

    We liked especially the place and the food, that included very good and varying vegetarian options.

    Very dangerous huge coconuts hanging on palm trees which are absolutely everywhere. They can fall and kill on your way to lunch or beach. Hotel should cut them off instead of putting plates 'beware of coco' The See is so rough that its not possible to swim in this place

    Very nice hotel, cute bangalows, direct Access to the beach, shower with skyview, great drinks in the bar
