We had such a great time staying at Daan's eco hostel. He's worked hard with his team to build something beautiful. Getting there is an adventure which adds to the experience. You really feel like you have traveled somewhere unique

What an amazing experience, somewhere between Hostel and Homestay. The location is quiet and off the beaten path, yet barely a 5 minute walk to the main beach. I was welcomed in by name at the door (there were no other guests expected to check in that night). I was working while there and would be regularly offered whatever juice of the moment the family was making, ginger tea, to join then for lunch, etc. they wee understanding that I was working for many hours throughout the day and offered me a personal fan, moved a table around and whatnot to accomodate offering me an outdoor workspace even though there was one in my room. The place was spotless and the private room I upgraded to had four pillows on the bed, I hadn't been so comfortable in all my weeks in Columbia! The hammocks and chill space was perfectly spacious, with a quiet option on the rear balcony away from others with a view of the mountains. The hosts set me up with a local guide Pocho for a swim and fishing walkabout through the mountains, he was a naturopath and offered a massage and treating my injured knee. The whole experience was a blessing. The restaurant suggestion was so spot on that I went there for every dinner and wish that there was such a well priced option in the other cities I visited. Im so grateful my AirBNB fell through and that I landed here instead!!

The most exotic place I've been in Colombia, with nature all around, peaceful and relaxing environment and lots of animals. There are two rivers to cross when entering and exiting from the hostel, I enjoyed the cool feeling of the water cause the weather was so humid :) recommended to bring sandals for crossing. The staff, Manuel and Jair, were absolutely wonderful with their hospitality and kindness all the time, meals were always excellent and so tasty. I just loved it there, thank you for the experience

    Great location close to the entry of Tayrona National Park. The natural springs pool (and the natural beauty of the hostel) were the highlights of my stay. Relaxing in the pool watching hummingbirds and seeing a family of monkeys the afternoon I arrived were a couple of my top memories. The older lady (owner's mom, I believe) and front desk woman were very friendly and helpful. Very quiet room and quality sleep. Happy to have been able to leave a piece of luggage there for a couple of days without additional cost.

    Victor is a very friendly host and really takes his time for his guests. The streets around are really quiet which is a big plus in Santa Marta. The breakfast is delicious and cheap, they have washing services which are also fast and cheap. It is not a not a big hostel with a lot of partying guests. Airconditioning works good and there is semi-warm water in the shower which is also a big plus im Santa Marta. The WIFI works constantly and is good enough to do video calls on.
