  • Description

    Description

    This is an eco hotel located in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, on the banks of the Don Diego River in Tairona territory. It is a 3 hectare property where visitors live history through the archaeological legacy of indigenous culture. Found in ruins and interactions with the indigenous community, our property provides a unique educational space. We have also recently began our Cacao production and have many opportunities to develop our space.
