"Wonderful hotel/hostel close to Tayrona. The private rooms have large floor to ceiling windows, and it was magical to watch the lightning and thunderstorms at night. Our room was very comfortable, and we loved the hammocks and outdoor seating as well. The restaurant served great food, and it was nice to have room service on extra stormy nights. Good WiFi to work or stream. The staff was kind and helpful. A few minutes walk from the beach, and five minute bus ride to the El Zaino entrance of...

"Conveniently located, this property is run by Lucie, a French woman caring and fluent in English and Spanish. She runs the place in a warm way making it cozy and nice to be in. She cooks delicously as well. There are two calm and nice dogs that run freely. It is all a soothing environment. She arranges for transportation and gives u tips. Rooms and pretty, with AC. I spent almost a week in Divanga using it as base and the plays draws relaxed travellers fun to talk to. Super recommended. "

Hilton Garden Inn Santa Marta

10/10 Excellent
"Clean room and location is amazing. My one meal took a long time and came cold. They reheated my dinner and overall decent. Staff was attentive and helpful. Located near the water and sceneries was amazing. Locally a huge police presence and felt very safe. Be smart with phones and wallet placement and awareness of your surroundings. "
