Stayed here three nights and great for relaxing at the hostel with people or using to travel into Tayrona National Park. It’s a 10 minute walk from the road (with four small streams to cross) or you can get a motorcycle. We loved the pool, good food/drink options, and enjoyed the open air (with mosquito net) dorms as it felt very unique.

My stay at The Valley exceeded all my expectations. The place has multiple spots to hang out or simply enjoy the forest. Special thanks to Jose, Hector, Victor, Camilo, Duvan, Laura, and the entire hostel staff for making me feel like family and letting me enjoy every single day to the fullest. You're the best!

Hostel is very clean for. Lovely little pool. Food in the hostel is nothing more than okay, but there is no other options of food around. Jose in reception is sweet and helpful. Not a lot of pressure in the shower, but wouldn't expect more for a jungle shower. My biggest complaint is there was a party (kings night) that I was not informed about prior to booking. Music was loud til 3 am, impossible to sleep. Staff rolled their eyes at me when I asked if there was another bed further away, but no

Very beautiful but not as social as I was expecting. Power and water went out for a few hours as well so be sure to bring a portable charger just in case, the hostel is very much deep in the jungle. Felt a bit isolating as far as being able to do things outside of the hostel. It’s pretty tucked away and the only way out is a 20 min hike or motorbike ride down to the main road, so be mindful of timing if you choose to do other things especially with the Santa Marta airport. But very great staff...

It is a cool experience to sleep in the open dorms. The Valley an adventurous 15min walk from the street away. But it’s absolutely doable even with luggage. It’s a beautiful hostel in the middle of the jungle with nice volunteers. Food is quite expensive. Showers and toilets are as you would expect them in the jungle. Was a nice stay!

Only thing to complain about is that the food was a bit expensive
