Distance to Villa de Leiva 45 minutes , poor menu . No wifi . Very limited place for food the breakfast was cold and generic , distractions with poor maintenance and definitely location was the worse , not a good place to stay if you want to enjoy Villa de Leiva . They only accept cash , no credit cards allowed. We pay full amount in cash.

It was the best choice from our roadtrip to Palomino. This hotel is super nice, it has a super nice design and worth every cent. The owner Nancy is always taking care of whatever you need, conversations are a gem and the staff is super friendly. I did enjoy every minute I was there, food, beers and waking up hearing birds is as great as the place itself. I will come back there to spend more time!

This is a beautiful location, with a couple lakes and nice scenery. The location is a gated and guarded (with what I want to recall, was someone with a firearm)(? really, is it that dangerous?), where it seems you need a reservation to arrive (we had). The access road is a bit unsafe for a motorcycle if the ground is wet/ and/or raining. Parking is a bit removed and you need to carry your bags a bit of a distance. You need to pass through the cabin (pod) area to get to the reception building, passing though a gate that marks the area you just walked through, was for patrons only. cabins are quaint, two rooms with a shared bathroom with a hot water shower. The entry area of the pod and the bathroom are not heated. The rooms have ceramic heaters and do an adequate job. The hot water takes a while to start and could fluctuate to cold; not what you need when it is cold outside. Our pod had a flat-screen TV with lines through it, I notified the staff, and it seemed they were aware, and didn't really show any concern. Signs are posted in the pods that you can not bring in outside drinks and food, and the provisions they provide for purchase in the pods is a bit over priced. As another review pointed out, it seems you're just a source of money to the proprietors. when we were there, we were met with inclimate weather (cold and rainy), and unable to participate in much of the available features, only a few of which didn't require more money. The "restaurant" was a nice glass enclosed building, which enabled you to view the surroundings. They heat the inside when appropriate. when not functioning as a restaurant, they have a couple TV's, a Wii, and an assortment of traditional card and board games to choose from. The restaurant had a menu to choose from or you could opt for the buffet style at indicated meal times. I wasn't impressed with the selection or quality of the buffet, menu selection was okay. It seemed as though the staff was friendly, but their seemingly overbearing monitoring at meal time was a bit intrusive. (see another reviewers post). When we were there, they were getting ready to open their new spa. We didn't use the spa, but did get a tour. They had several hot tubs and cold and hot saunas. The hot tubs seemed very close together, and didn't really provide much of any real privacy.

El Dorado Nature Reserve is located at the heart of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, you will find the highest number of bird species in the world!
Is it worth the expensive hour and a half long rattle up dirt road in a 4x4 taxi? You bet it is. This location has to be one of the world's finest. Up on the side of a steep ridge, you get views right across the valley on one side (on a clear day, you can see the snow-topped peaks of the Sierra Nevada mountain range) and on the other, right down across the Carribean coast, so that at night the lights of the town of Cienaga twinkle in the distance. When we were there in late January, the days were almost all sunny, but clouds would pass below the property, flowing over the ridges and down into the valleys like waterfalls. I made many time-lapse videos of this stunning experience. The elevation means that although the sun is hot, the air is cool, which is a great relief after the oven-like conditions in Santa Marta. For experienced birders, there are endemic species living here, but even for someone less specialist, this is a truly incredible location not only to see birds, but snakes and frogs and giant insects and all sorted of magical nature. There are several trails leading from the property up, down and along the ridge. The longest walk is across the valley to a small finca, up the hill to San Lorenzo Ridge, and then back down the dirt road that 4x4s can travel up, so you loop back down into the property. It took me about 4 hours in total. Other trails are much shorter and less demanding. We stayed for six nights, which allowed us to really relax into the experience.
