Description
Welcome to our Bed & Breakfast in the heart of Choachí!
What do we do? More than just offering a place to stay, we create experiences designed for renewal and balance. Our plans include mountain and páramo hikes, guided bike tours, bird watching, yoga sessions, body massages, beer workshops, visits to the region’s coffee farms, and more; we have a wide variety of activities to make the stay of our guests unforgettable. We are committed to providing a personalized experience that makes our guests feel at home from the moment they arrive.
Choachí is located just an hour and a half from Bogotá in the department of Cundinamarca, Colombia, and captivates with its natural charm characterized by different thermal floors and a great variety of waterfalls, including the highest in Colombia: La Chorrera, with a length of 590 meters. Surrounded by mountains and páramos, it is an ideal destination for those seeking to reconnect with nature and enjoy authentic hospitality.
Our B&B has a floor of private rooms, perfect for couples and friends, as well as a floor with a shared room. Each floor is designed with common areas, and we have a landscaped patio and a dining room where we serve homemade breakfast to our guests.
It is located in a quiet area of the town, just three blocks from the final stop of the public transportation coming from Bogotá.
We need support in social media, maintenance, occasional customer service, and designing strategies to attract international visitors. We are looking for collaborative and versatile people to meet work needs, focusing on what is required in a particular season.
