You can play table tennis at this hostel. El Rodadero Beach is 30 km from Ecolodge Playa Brava Teyumakke, while Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino is 24 km away. The nearest airport is Simón Bolívar International Airport, 36 km from the property. Fantastic beach front private cabin. I thought food and drink was reasonable given location, certainly much cheaper than anything in Europe if slightly more expensive than Colombia elsewhere. Nice room, beautiful location. Allowed us to have an early breakfast.

Offering a terrace and views of the garden, Masaya Casas Viejas is set 30 minutes away from Minca in the Magdalena Region by 4x4 or motorcycle, and 12 mi from Santa Marta. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar with a terrace.

All private rooms are equipped with a ensuite bathroom. The property, the pool, the view and the staff were all incredible, especially Sergio our host. I absolutely loved this place. The private rooms were great to have your space and comfort while still enjoying the social aspect of the hostel.

Well located in the centre of Santa Marta, Imagine hostel provides air-conditioned rooms, a garden, free WiFi and a bar. A hot tub and a bicycle rental service are available for guests. The accommodation features a shared kitchen, a 24-hour front desk and organising tours for guests. Great hostel, very close to the center but also the market where you can find the main bus stop to Tayrona. The customer service at the hostel was amazing! They were very helpful. They also agreed to keep our bags when we went to Tayrona for 4 nights. The place was very clean. I highly recommend if you just need to sleep there a couple of nights on your way to Tayrona or Minca.
