Cheap and relatively near a very quiet beach. Has Aircon and a card machine. The guy working at reception is really nice and helpful and ordered us dinner from a takeout place and coordinated payment when they closed the kitchen ridiculously early.

My stay was truly an adventure and absolutely worth every moment! The room matched the photos perfectly - minimalist, stylish, and cozy. The surroundings were simply breathtaking. Here, you could fully immerse yourself in nature and unwind completely. It was evident that Pollo had poured his heart and soul into this project, and it showed in every detail. Loved the chocolate tasting too!
... and yes, it's situated up the hill in the jungle, so a certain level of fitness is required, but the view from up there makes it all worthwhile.
The mattress was terrible, although the hotel changed it, but it wasn't that great anyway. I had terrible neck pain after that. the menu was limited, and one day we ordered some ribs, which were awful; we almost had to beg for us to cancel that order since we tried two ribs out of six, just to make sure I wasn't crazy. But then, my family agreed eating was dangerous. It's an average hotel. Nothing special for the money we paid. There is a beach, but you can't get in because it is too wild, so not good for kids.
When we walked into this place, it was just absolutely breath taking. We had a group of 5 and we all agreed that it was one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. The proximity to the beach is A+, the tents themselves are extremely luxurious, exceptionally clean and such a novelty.
The hosts were very friendly and helpful, guiding us to some wonderful places which really made our trip. And the bar at the place was super cute too.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a summer getaway.
This is a much better alternative to El Rio. We paid the same price for a double room with an en suite for 2 people as one night in a 23 bed dorm for one person in El Rio. Feels like a hotel/ guesthouse and is super clean and comfy. Can either get a Moto taxi to el Rio in 4 mins or it's about a 25 min walk. We still spend the days and evening in El Rio for free and came back here to sleep. Totally recommend and don't worry, Moto taxis are still available all night. Room had Aircon and a TV
Really beautiful place. Big cabanas under palms trees with an open bathroom to the sky. Large secluded beach for long walks. Good food. Nice bar. Lovely place for couples, families or friends. About an hour walk on the beach (passing several hotels and hostels) to the mouth of Buritaca river where lots of restaurants and bars can be found. About 20 mins walk to the main road where buses between Santa Marta and La Guajira pass. About 10 min moto taxi ride from the center of Buritaca.
What a place: La Selvita, a spacious cabana in paradise, surrounded by hectares of beautiful plants, various fruit trees, the sound of the river, the view of the ocean of buritaca in the distance. Puppies, cats and cacao. 😍
The owner, Polo is super simpático, motivated and caring. He invited us on a tour of the finca and we learned all about the art of making chocolate. And sampling choc too. We left with BIG SMILES, in tranquility and plans to return soon for more adventures.
My husband and I really love the location. The garden area and the hotel look beautiful. Good breakfast, good service. (Ceviche was great, compliments to the chef) If you are looking forward to having some rest and chill, here is the place. The beach is beautiful but swimming is almost impossible because of driftwood/ waves, but luckily there is a pool! We really enjoy the pool area, and the bats at night time :)
Great stay. The best is how calm and secluded this place is. If you want time to relax this is a great place to be. The place is next to Gitana del Mar a better known hotel, but this other hotel will also deliver a great experience. The comfortable and spaciousness, , the pool, the safety at the beach, it is not crowded, the food is delicious
We loved our stay at Paraiso Ahimsa. Waking up in that beautiful location was like a dream. I loved watching the sunrise to the chorus of birds. I didn’t want to leave and definitely will return.
I loved the view, the architecture, the decor, the host, the location, the nature, the multiple decks, hammocks, everything!
This hotel is beautiful. Set on a farm in the lush greenery, close to the river. I enjoyed walking to the river to kayak and swim. You can easily get to the beach too. We saw toucans and so many beautiful birds just sitting by the pool. It is relaxing and feels like a luxury home. Loved it!
The place is extraordinary, at the heart of a very quiet and peaceful land of forest, with a nice view on the sea. I really recommend the chocolate tour where you can taste the chocolate of the farm in (almost) unlimited quantities. For gourmands only!
this hostel is super nice if you want to party but also rest, it’s better to just take the mototaxi to Rio instead of booking there. The stuff is super friendly and helpful, you can feel here like with the family. I highly recommend!
Such a great setting for a hotel. Beautiful pool and all the staff went above and beyond. Great location for going to the beaches and a short drive to the park entrance. Loved the pinacoladas!
Good location in buritaca 20 mins walk from el rio. Everyone staying there (basically) was heading to el rio for the party, so all had some drinks and walked over together. Nice private room.
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting the area.
The hotel surroundings where super green and we could ear the birds singing all day long
The swimming pool on the beach is a very nice plus :)
Bathroom is very cool!
The location was amazing, close to Santa Marta but far enough to feel in the middle of nowhere and enjoying the nature, the beauty of landscape and beach.
