A valuable price for room and breakfast. ( Approx 20Eur per person) The food is good and they make a... More

We stayed at Ecohostal Uluka from the 13th December to the 17th December 2012. We took this place as the webpage was in a perfect english and sounded like a serious place to stay so we had hoped for some more information in english. We really looked forward to stay in this place and we were met with the owner... More

Whilst the location is advertised as a tranquil place to stay it is situated right on a busy road frequented with heavy trucks and tourist buses. I informed them about my room leaking during a torrential downpour (luckily not on the beds) but they didn't bother to clean it up till the next day and the water was over most... More

We stayed in bungalows in the middle of the nature with a hammock in our patio which was lovely when we wanted to relax. The bungalow itself was very cosy and the hotel is 5 mins drive away from the entrance of the Tayrona park which is very convenient. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The hotel is advertising... More

Well run, clean hostel, with thatched cabins with ensuite. Well located right next door to the awesome parque. Owner Wilmar is very helpful with the activities! Lacks Internet however (except for very slow GPRS). Coconuts on playa coco or coral reef snorkelling at playa cristal.

We stayed four nights with two children (7 and 5), two adults, and Grandma. Everything people have said on TripAdvisor are true. The property is lovely; the pool is nice, the gardens are well maintained. Wilmar, the owner, his wife, and the staff were very helpful. We did three day trips - 1) to the Beaches of Tayrona National Park... More

The property is lush with beautiful vegetation set on the mountain side. There is not a lot close by so you have to take a taxi most places but it is very close to the entrance to the national park. The rooms are actually small huts place along a stone path up the hill. Most have a wrap around balcony... More

My partner and I stayed here last December, and it was so delightful! Wilmar was a great host and very knowledgeable about the area. It exceeded out expectations. The staff was super sweet, and the food was yummy, simple, and homemade. We were very comfortable in our cabana! I would definitely stay here again, and have recommended it to family.
