Great hostel! Good location for the park with a beautiful view. David was amazing and so kind and hospitable!
The journey hostel has been amazing I couldn’t recommend it enough not only is it a beautiful place with an amazing location but the staff are incredible: Both Jésus’s at the bar make the most delicious cocktails always with a smile. Vivian is so welcoming and fun she put me on the Gin Smash cocktail. Would defo recommend! Joshua is super sweet and generous to all. Justine always checked up on me asking if I needed anything with a lovely smile. Lola made sure I always had a yummy ...
Really loved it here. Very clean and only a short walk from the park! Amazing sunset views!! Pool was nice and lots of chill areas. Dinner was very social and breakfast was enjoyable with choice of a few options.

+ Mitten in der Natur.
- Relativ teuer.
+ Nice spot, near tayrona entry (15min walk). Wifi is good...when it works.
- Music too loud during the day. It's a shame they just dont turn it down a little. (So people can talk) Sounds from the road at night if you are in the "open" shred bedrooms. Not that much animation during the day and evening. "Volonteers" are not very invested. Improvements: A nice add-on for the hostel could be some soap in the shower. And a shower near/at the pool before people jump in it. Family dinner portions could be a little bigger for 35k.
good hostel with great views but the beds were very disappointing.
Amazing hostel - beautiful views, great food and the best staff! Katie and David were super friendly and mega helpful

+ La vista a la montaña especialmente en el atardecer y la actitud de los colaboradores. Son atentos.
- La subida a pie es incómoda y las habitaciones compartidas son muy ruidosas. Los casilleros son muy pequeños y las puertas no tienen seguro. Las duchas regulares y el desayuno es muy básico. Debes pagar adicionales.

+ Fue precioso quedarse aquí. El ambiente en el hostel era muy bueno. Las comidas estaban muy ricas todas.
Alles inkl. Essen top! Nur die Duschen waren immer sehr schmutzig.

+ We enjoyed the location, close to the entrance of Tayrona Park. The views from the hostel over the valley are great! The infinity pool is smaller than anticipated but has amazing views. The private room was small but comfortable bed and nice to have AC in the heat! The inclusive breakfast was nice (avo / eggs on toast etc) and the lunch/ dinner menu was also good and generally varied. The hostel has a tour desk which is handy and there is also a laundry service.
- Generally thought it was overpriced. The private rooms (not bungalows) are in the main building opposite the kitchen so it’s noisy from 6am - light sleepers bring earplugs! The music in the evenings can also be quite loud until late (but perhaps not an issue if you’re not staying in the main building). Not a reflection of all staff, but some could have been friendlier.
+ La vista es privilegiada y la piscina muy bonita. El desayuno es rico y la cocina del restaurante muy buena!
- La cama era incómoda, llega mucha gente de fuera porque el hostel acepta estancias de un día solo pagando consumo. Si vas de solo viaje es perfecto, si vas en pareja o familia no es lo ideal, no es del todo tranquilo. El baño de la cabaña estaba en mal estado.
I paid extra for a room with AC. Then, at 7 am, someone enters the rook and turns it off… are you serious???
Fab food/drink options and lovely staff, esp George and Vivienne! The cacao experience was defo a highlight. Cleanliness could be better, clumps of hair in the shower seemed to stay there for the duration I was staying there which wasn’t great
+ Spectacular views, great infinity pool Chill vibe
- Very expensive for Colombian standards
