Naio Hotel y Villas by OxoHotel ★★★

AMĀRA BEACH ECO HOTEL ★★★

"We had an ocean view room. When it rained, the rain came in under the balcony door. The food was not bad, but not worth the price. The service was very good. Right on the beach, and the beach area was quiet and enjoyable."

Territorio Magico ★★★

"If you're yearning for an escape from the hustle and bustle to reconnect with Colombia's breathtaking natural beauty and the unparalleled warmth of its people, Territorio Magico is the perfect choice! Tucked away in a remote village in "La Guajira" at the northeastern tip of the country, the journey itself is a part of the disconnect. Upon landing in Riohacha, the state's capital and the hotel's recommended point of arrival, arrange for a Territorio Magico vehicle (approximately US$80). This chauffeured ride securely transports you from the airport to the compound's entrance in about an hour. Before you know it, you're welcomed by one of the hostesses, ushered to your room, and enveloped by the rhythm of the Caribbean sea and the invigorating fresh air. With only four rooms accommodating a total of 16 guests, privacy reigns supreme. During our four-night stay, we were the sole occupants. The heart of the property is a sizable pool, approximately 50 feet (17m) in length, nestled amidst greenery, coconut palm trees, hammocks, and the main building. A mere 250-meter stroll (my estimate!) within the hotel's confines leads you to the Caribbean Sea, where its gentle waves caress a sandy beach stretching for hundreds of meters in both directions. Here, you can bask in the sun, collect seashells from the sand, or venture into open-sea swims if that's your preference. Early mornings may treat you to the sight of a few fishermen diligently at work, seeking the catch of the day. The menu boasts a distinctly Colombian and local flair. Simple yet delicious dishes are offered at reasonable prices by international standards (approximately USD$7 for breakfast, USD$15-20 for lunch and dinner dishes). Generous portions make every meal a delight, with personal favorites including the "arepa de huevo" with "Cayeye" and "hogao" for breakfast, and the fish/lobster dishes for lunch and dinner (especially the Robalo Ceviche!). For those inclined to indulge, ordering a bottle early on is advisable, as liquor flows freely in the tropics, and it's more economical than purchasing "by the glass." Savor "empanadas," "carimanolas," and "patacones con hogao" with an ice-cold Aguila beer, then surrender to the allure of a hammock nap. Rinse and repeat! For an encounter with wild flamingos, venture to "Los Caracoles," situated between the hotel and the Riohacha airport. The natural reserve is serene and captivating, and the park guides recommended by Territorio Magico are both knowledgeable and amiable. Remember to pack ample sunblock and water for the bird-spotting tour, which could last anywhere from 1 to 3 hours depending on the day's conditions. Anticipate early starts and finishes to your days, aligning with nature's intended rhythm. Hydrate with straight-from-the-palm coconut water (USD$2) machete-opened by a hotel employee. Don't be surprised by the lively sounds of "Champeta" or "Vallenatos" resonating into the late hours—it's a coastal household staple. The soothing"

Casa Dibulla Hotel Boutique ★★★

"I hosted a yoga retreat at this place and it was perfect! Rosi made sure we had an amazing time. She planned different activities for us like cacao ceremony, sound healing and more. The food and the affection of the people was amazing! The rooms have AC and a fan, also each villa has a terrace. The beach is right in front is a 2 min walk. Amazing place to disconnect and have peaceful time. Super recommend!! ❤️"

Aite Eco Resort ★★★

"An incredible stay in a beautiful location that truly lets you connect with nature. The rooms are excellent, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed for a relaxing experience. Surrounded by stunning scenery, it is easy to relax and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. Aite is a perfect getaway for anyone looking to recharge and enjoy anything from the beach or pool to amazing dining and beautiful nature."

"Nice place! Good for both relaxing and social settings. Beach is really close to the Hostel. Im really just writing this rewiev tjo bc its a free cocktail in the bar if i write 200 Words ot more. Im at 200 now Nice "

Coconuco Beach Palomino ★★★★

"We stayed 3 nights here and were very impressed. The entire place was extremely well-maintained and clean, and was beautifully landscaped in a way that enhanced the relaxing atmosphere. Our room had modern and quiet air conditioning, a rarity in this area, and a very comfortable bed. The entire staff was friendly and helpful, and the food was great. I appreciated that they rotated the breakfast options every morning (all were delicious), and the lunch/dinner menus both featured excellent meals. If we ever find ourselves returning to this area we intend to stay here again."

One Santuario Natural ★★★★★

"The best place to relax, with excellent cuisine and very comfortable facilities. Next to the river, you can appreciate the cool waters of the mountains, surrounded by lush vegetation, and the Cogui community is always present with ancestral wisdom."

Uuttaaka Eco-Hotel ★★★

"A beautiful place on the beach with cabins that fit in with the surroundings and a building with a novel design in the shape of a beehive. For me it would have been just another hotel on the seafront, but the entrance through a mangrove on a wooden bridge was quite an experience, a walk of several meters through the mangrove and at the end you arrive at the hotel, the beach and the sea... At night it is worth walking along the mangrove path which is very well lit and enjoying the sounds and shapes of nature. The best thing is that there are no noisy neighbors for miles. The attention of Germán and his entire team was exceptional, the cuisine was delicious and the rooms were very comfortable... Definitely a place to repeat... highly recommended."
