    Description

    We are building an eco hotel/permaculture farm project on a beautiful Colombian mountain on the north coast of Colombia - right across from the famous Tayrona national park and close to stunning beaches, the lost city and Minca.

    We are a friendly group from Spain, France, USA and Colombia.

    Humming birds, howling monkeys, fantastic views, waterfalls and refreshing pools. Ducks, chickens, geese and dogs add to the natural ambience.

    *** We would like to welcome you if you can stay for at least one month or more. ****

    We are located in the mountain at 45 min walking from the main road (15min with mototaxi), and 40 minute bus ride from Santa Marta, a popular holiday destination in Colombia. Parque Tayrona, a famous national park in Colombia is across from the property and nearby are stunning beaches. In the property we have nice river, with little Waterfall and natural pools, jungle. We are on the way to the Kogui village (indigenous community), and more or less it take 1 hour by bus to go to Palomino or to Minca from the main road.
