Nice View from the Balkony :)
A/C
Very loud during the night, music till 5 am in the morning.
Cabins not isolated, very basic, no warm water.
You pay too much for what you get.
The staff only speaks spanish, we are used to it but normally it's possible to talk with hand and feed and it works out. The staff in this hotel is very shy and only communicates with Googletranslater.
We left after one night, had to pay for both nights we booked.. not even a discount. The staff only said, that they always have problem with noice.
So maybe we went there at the wrong time in off season.

Very flexible with check-in/check-out. They allowed us late for both.
The first night the water and air conditioning didn’t work because they had forgotten to activate the water for our cabin. There was also a dead lizard in the room.

Amazing View, Amazing Town, 100 percent recommend it and the Staff were so friendly and helpful will come back again :)
4.2
The view is amazing
Tasty and simple breakfast
Good price
Because of the location, there is always a very strong wind that shakes the whole bungalow and doesn't let you sleep during the night.
You can also hear the music from the town very clearly until 3/4am each day
The bathroom and bedroom aren't separated well, so you don't really have privacy
4.2
Very beautiful view from the terass. Kind staff. Nice rooms. Good location.
They should have notified that they would not serve breakfast on the 1st of January nor have anyone working during the night. Also the key they handed us to get into the hotel wasn't the right one and we had to stay outside and wait for anyone to arrive.
4.2
Amazing view and super friendly and helpful staff. They only speak Spanish but we were able to communicate with a translate app. View was stunning and cabins very clean! Breakfast was also delicious. Beds were also very comfortable.
Very noisy, our cabin was very close to the busy car road so try to ask for a cabin that's a bit further up the mountain. Another very noisy thing was that, even though the hotel is very far from the bars at the beach, there was a lot of noise from the 24/7 parties going on down there, sometimes as loud as if the bar was right next to us. I guess the bay area and mountains kind of function as a speaker..
Also there's only stairs to get to the cabin though that's just good exercise ;)
4.2
Wonderful view of the bay.
Breakfast was good; fruit, juice, coffee, arepas (or other choices)
Staff was very friendly and helpful. They did our laundry upon request and were very attentive, friendly.
Rooms were rustic, clean and roomy enough for two.
five minute walk downhill to town and tons of restaurants.
Would definitely stay again if we go back to Taganga.
The rooms closer to the road might be a bit noisy. We were up high, so no problem for us.
4.2
I think it is overpriced. The cabin needs a refrigerator or at least the reception area should offer water, beer, and snacks for sale. The view is spectacular. Breakfast should be offered at 6:30 am or provide a coffee maker in the room. There is no place to hang clothes. Not even a hanger.A/C hardly cools the cabin. It is very humid and hot. It felt like 85 degrees even at night with A/C on. Liked the balcony overlooking street that was outfitted with a hammock, table and chair. Cabin needs a bedside table with table lamp. A two minute walk down steep stairs or can walk on road to village to beach. Since the water is not potable from the tap, a bottle of water in the room upon arrival would have been nice. Also have night security guard. Towels and sheets were spotless and relatively new. Safe worked well. Noise, noise, noise (incredibly loud music) can be heard from the beach beginning around 10 am until wee hours of the morning. If u don't have really good earplugs u probably will not get much sleep . Next to this hotel is a hostel that also plays incredibly loud music- it's a cultural thing, they aren't concerned about the comfort of the neighbors , only themselves.
Noise and no refrigerator.
4.2
Superb view over the beach, very convenient location to be close enough to beach and village without being stuck in.
We heard complaints from previous guests about noise in the neighbourhood, but as we traveled in February under a Covid night curfew we did not experience it.
Worth checking if nearby disco Babaganoush is open, because if it is your stay couldn’t be as quiet
Staff could be a little more informative about Covid restrictions and options in Taganga and Tayrona National Park.
4.2
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The view is beautiful! And the room is super comfortable. We stayed six days, it was a bit noisy on Friday but the rest of the days were perfect to relax and sleep well. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!!

The view is even better than in pictures! So beautiful. You can relax in the hammock. The room is clean and spacious. The breakfast is delicious.
Nothing!
