  • Description

    Description

    We are 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 hidden city and Minca.

    We are a freindly group from Spain, France, UK, 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. ****
