Amazing hostel on the beach, Carolina was great and helped me enter the room at 1pm (Gabriela didn't allow me even though hostel was almost empty, but that's fine, you can leave your bags at reception and chill on the beach). Great wifi, delicious food at their restaurant, cool vibes. Lot of options to reserve, I stayed in dorm of 4 beds, good AC and both nights ended up alone in the room. Kind staff, very clean, good beach- almost no waves(explore on the right, over the rocks - there is a private beach for you). Will definitely come back!

Relaxing stay right on the beach. More of just a basic room, the place doesn’t have much of an atmosphere, but the views and the sound of the ocean is so calming. Restaurant just opening 2 doors down.. ‘El conche y nancar’ - best fish I’ve eaten in Colombia!

Perfect location on the beachfront, the owners were friendly and did a fantastic job of sweeping sand out to keep it clean Able rent surf boards and surf within a short walk. Can watch the surfers from the hotel searst. It was still possible to swim in the wave, or go down to the river for calmer water and excellent views of the jungle All the hotels along the beach are pretty much the same but here the chairs out front were in the shade all day which wasn't the case for all of them which was a big bonus

We stayed in a private room which was great. Good value for money. Basic but has everything you need. It’s 20 min drive out of the main part of Santa Marta, but we stayed here for a night to be closer to the airport and we were impressed with the location. Right on the beach, and the restaurant is well priced and good food! Amazing sunset views from restaurant too.
