Beach Hotels & Resorts in Los Naranjos from NZ$51

"My stay was a respite from daily life, situated on a coastal bulff where the Tayrona river meets the sea. The sea was a little rough for normal beach activities but lying in a hamock listening to the waves crash and watching surfers was sooooo relaxing. The property is not super luxe but it is nicely finished and wel maintained and the staff are attentive and friendly. A great opportunity to practice Spanish since not a lot of English is spoken. The food was all freshly prepared to order and not surpringly featured fish and fresh fruits. We stayed in Room 4 in the back. No view but privacy including a dedicated Jacuzzi. I had read about this lodge years ago and finally noticed availability so snatched a week during my recent visit to Colombia. The. highlght was after several trips down to the river, I finally saw a good sized crocodile in the water. when i went at low tide and the ocean waves were not disturbing the river. There iwas a fair amount of on-going construction close by which we heard in the bsck so it wasn't quite as isloated as expected but still a great esacpe to nature."

"The location is beautiful and the grounds are kept impeccable. You see how much staff they dedicate to keeping the grounds well maintained. A lot of hidden gems to be discovered simply wandering around the sprawling property of Maloka Barlovento/Casa Tayrona Los Naranjos from various pools to a tiki bar that has reggae music and salsa playing. It just an amazing property. Beds are comfortable, rooms are big and well decorated with a classy rustic appearance. Ten minutes from the Tayrona Park El Zaino entrance. Staff is all incredibly kind. Dinner offerings are great. My only critique is breakfast. The coffee was below average. You come to a country like Colombia you expect great coffee to be the standard. Breakfast have now shifted to quantity over quality. We stayed here in April 2021 and the breakfasts were smaller, but the quality was better. Bread was better, fruit was more flavorful. All being said, this is an absolutely gem of a place to stay. Absolutely gorgeous. You won’t want to leave!"
