    Huaka-yo is set in pristine jungle scenery, so quiet and restful, a real chance to relax and rejuvenate. The staff were very welcoming, helpful and happy. I was woken to the sound of bird song and saw many different species. My en suite room was spacious with everything I needed. 250m from San Agustin Archaeological Park. The park is absolutely amazing with the most wonderful statues & tombs. An absolute must for anyone in this area.

    Being out of town, I used taxis to go into town and that mounts up at 10k per ride although cheaper by moto taxi. Rooms are a little stark and adding a few pictures would cheer them up.

    Set in a huge gorgeous garden setting it's the perfect place for peace and solitude just 3 km put of town and a 5 minute walk from the park. Rooms are spacious, spotlessly clean and beds are very comfortable. Shower had good pressure and lots of hot water and wifi reception was excellent. There were even 2 showers and toilets in my unit. Staff were super friendly, unfailingly helpful and cheerful. The hotel German Shepherd is very sweet and can usually be found with the gardener. He's also a good doorbell for staff if they're away from the reception when your ring the bell to get in the main gate. Breakfast was fresh mango, eggs cooked as ypu like, an arepa, juice and coffee. Food in the restaurant was tasty, served in generous portions and fairly priced. Kitchen was open throughout my stay even though I was the only guest. Beer and wine is available at good prices. Credit cards are accepted for payment.

    Initially we got wrong information about a tour offer (price and places to visit) which giide us to make decisions about our itinerary that could be different but the operator and the hotel administration did everything in their hands to sort it out.

    Very kind and efficient staff. Quick response personally and via booking platform. Place is an absolute paradise: surrounded by the silence of the nature. Distance from town is not an issue as long as you are willing to walk or pay a taxi. Any way it worth it.

    This is a beautiful, quiet hotel set in a forest setting. Very comfortable and very restful. The food is basic, but good. The staff was very attentive to our needs It's a 5 minute walk from the entry to the archeological park. If you want to get to town, it's a short taxi ride away. The staff also organized a day trip for us to visit the other sites and waterfalls.

    Nothing. All was terrific.

    Probably the best hotel after 6 weeks traveling in Colombia. No roosters, no dogs barking all night long, just wonderful tranquility surrounded by nature. The rooms were huge, clean and comfortable. Staff is absolutely great. Booked for just 2 nights but stayed 4. Nice restaurant too.

    No WiFi in the downstairs room and no mobile phone reception. It's bizarre that they don't set up a router to fix this obvious requirement.

    The people working here are very nice. The hotel is a two minute walk to the entrance of the archaeological park and set in beautiful gardens and surrounded by forest. The room is very big.

    The staff is so nice and helpful. Always eager to help you with tours and give tips (helped me book a personnalized tour of the countryside). Very nice owner as well who offered me a tasting of the local best coffee blend. Hotel very quiet and peaceful. Rooms are not much decorated but very practical and comfy. Very good food

    We stayed for 3 nights which felt too short.

    Everything. It is simply the best hotel I have ever stayed in Colombia. From its location next to the San Agustin archeological park, to how clean and beautiful the hotel is, to the friendly staff and especially the hosts Cesar and Susan who are very helpful with travel suggestions and all you need to know about the area and more. It is so quiet and peaceful; all you can hear is the sound from the creek and the birds chirping, calling you to be with them. Simply the best!
