These cabins are incredible, like your staying in a treehouse and the views were amazing. We gave up a second day of hiking so we could hangout at the ecohab and enjoy the view.

Lovely location, pricey, beautiful views.
It was a beautiful location, and everyone was very welcoming. It felt a bit expensive in light of other accommodations we had on our trip to Colombia, but would still recommend. Also, the complimentary breakfast was limited, and small… which was frustrating because we ended up having to order and pay for more.

Remember that you are paying for location! The habs on themselves are fine, they are well equiped and have all you need for staying the night. However, they are not meant to stay during the day. As advertised, there is no wifi, there is no AC, and the view can only be "enjoyed" if you are lying down and the whole doors open. In our case, the service was great but the hab was not ready. The phone and TV didn't work and the shower drain was clogged. They were quick to address both the TV and the shower but the phone never worked. Good think that we didn't need it during our stay. I know those are no big deals, but it is something you don't expect given the price point. If you happen to book one of the habs in the back, prepare for quite a "climb". The farthest one (and the one with the best location) is 5-10 minutes from the reception and restaurant. The beach closer to the habs is quite private but the waves can get pretty strong, so be careful. The jacuzzi is "included" one time per reservation and you have to book it in advance. In theory, there are 2, we only saw one. Make sure you bring sunblock with you because there is no shade in that one. In summary, the habs are too expensive for what you get in terms of accommodation, but you pay for the luxury of being in the middle of the Tayrona Park and the easier access to the park beaches. Do not recommend for more than 2 nights.

Great location, food and staff. Not that happy at checkout, taxes charged to be refunded at airport when leaving the country but not invoice provided for that. Requested invoice at checkout and was told it would be provided by emai and never receiver, sent out email request asking for invoice and no response received.

Great place to stay to use at a morning start point for walking to the beaches in the area. The best beaches are a 1-2 hour walk from the property. We stayed in room 3, which is not well insulated and does not prevent insects from getting inside the room. The room condition itself is nice. Don’t expect luxury in this unit, the bed is small and worn. Also note that the units are really close to the ocean and you will hear the ocean waves all night. The restaurant has good reasonably priced food. Connecting to WiFi is annoying as you constantly have to re-enter username and password. Milena at front desk was pleasant and receptive to our needs.

These are the pros and cons based on my experience. Pros: The property is beautiful. the rooms are beautifully designed, fantastic view, very unique. Cons: The food was below average. Uncooked chicken and horrible desert. they have limited WiFi that you can only access it in the restaurant and at the reception are, and it’s one of those annoying Wi-Fi that constantly kick you out, and you have to log back by entering user name/password every few minutes. The beach is a very small area, so if you stay more than one night you will get bored here. in order to access other beaches it is a long walk/hike from this place . The bathroom is one level lower than the room, you have to walk one level go downstairs to use it. Upon check out, they gave me a bill five times more than it should be. I only had dinner and a bottle of water and they literally charged me five times more. Make sure to check the bill and don’t just hand in your Credit Card and let them swipe. When you stay here, expect a lot of discomfort. From where the bus drops you off, you have to walk about 25 minutes to get to the property and there is no other means of transportation except overpriced horses. The hotel does not help the customers by arranging transfer.

Stunning setting and amazing room
Words cannot convey how beautiful this location is! If you can, do book to go here, regardless of any concerns. The Ecohabs have a magnificent setting - we were in number 7, which is high on the hill and had a great view of the beaches and the mountains. The Ecohab was very clean and comfortable - although very hot as there is only a fan, not air con, but we were happy with that as we could open all the windows and have an all round view. The only concerns are that the restaurant doesn't have many simple meals and the service is a bit slow, but the food we had was delicious. We particularly enjoyed La Piscinita - the private beach by the Ecohabs.

We had a great time. Highly suggested to stay in the park for a night at least. This is the best place where to do it if you are not the camping type. Comfort while in the middle of Tyrona. We also got a massage at the spa which was just incredible (way above our expectations). I would go back in a heart bit. The one tiny thing to notice is that the food is not so great. Ok for a couple of meals but I wish there were other options for that. Otherwise, perfect !!

What I wish I knew before booking this property. The property is great for the experience of having a hut overlooking the sea. It's peaceful and quiet. But note, this place is in serious need of renovation. In my room, the electrics were faulty, bed net bent, light switches not attached to walls properly, pedal bin broken with no lid. I had no bulb in my bathroom for 2 of my 4 nights (more on that later). These things were are all manageable, however, when you consider the amount you are paying for the room, I expected better. I was also surprised that there were no toiletries, just shower gel and hand soap. Everything had to be paid for. There was no complimentary water either. You even had to pay for water at the inclusive breakfast. The customer service was very poor. Again disappointing given this was the most expensive place during my travels around Santa Marta. I informed the hotel immediately ref no lights in the bathroom, yet it was not fixed for 2 of my 4 nights. I understand things happen and I managed, but what irked me was that there was no apology or acknowledgement of the inconvenience this caused (note layout & where bathroom is). The attitude was one of 'tough luck'. This was the same attitude I encountered when my taxi driver and I waited nearly 1 hour to pay because their WiFi was so bad that I couldn't make card payment on check out. Again no apologies for the inconvenience especially to my taxi driver. Disappointing.
