  Description

  Im Dany a 32 years old Colombian woman. I have this beautiful eco hostel . In Palomino one of the most beautiful caribean towns in Colombia. The place is full of trees which creates a very pleasant cool micro climate in the middle of these lands of Caribbean heat and also makes the home of many beautfiul creators like squirrel, iguanas and birds.
  This place attracts a diversity of people from all over the world, with whom we share in community. We like our guests to feel at home, we try to give them a very special attention and assist them in whatever they may require on their trip. At the moment we are looking to promote healthy habits among the people who share this space. We want to have regular yoga practices, promote healthy eating habits and include in our daily lives any type of activity that promotes personal and collective well-being. All of this in a context of great respect for nature.
  
  The Camping/hostel is located in Palomino, one of the most beautiful villages in the north of Colombia on the Caribbean Coast, with two rivers that meet the beach from where u can see the "Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta". This is a dream place, quite sure you are going to enjoy it
