Gracias Tribu!!💯💯 El hostal más prolijo, aseado, tranquilo y que te hace sentir tranquilidad de toda la cuidad. Estos son algunos de los adjetivos y faltan más.. Gracias Seño Gloria, seño Lina por hacerme sentir en Familia, por los Motes de Guineo y Enséñame un poco más de la cultura Samaria y que realmente el Hostal Kaia es "Un oasis en medio de la Cuidad"
Que Moly, Tobby y Potro solo le gusta proteger a la Seño Gloria, pienso yo que los demás debemos también disfrutar de su protección
La atención de Mr. Jason fue excelente
Las zonas de entretenimiento
A veces hay gente ruidosa
The hostal has a very cozy space to chill! Was very quiet in a zone more outside of the center, but it's easy to get a bus.
Excelente
Las instalaciones, la atención, excelente ambiente
Todo estuvo bien
Le mieux en lui même est très joli malheureusement il est très mal entretenu. La cuisine et les salles de bain étaient extrêmement sale à tout moment de la journée. Le ventilateur de la chambre ne fonctionnait pas bien.

Family owned and operated and they treat guests as family - need I say more 😘
Atmosphere and accommodations more than satisfied
De forma general excelente. Solo debería controlar más el personal que ingresa por pasadia
El recepcionista en la noche no estaba allí y al llegar tarde nos toca esperar para que nos abrieran exponiéndos en la calle
Honestly by far the best hostel I’ve stayed at in Colombia. Owners and staff were really friendly. Water pressure is good. Bed was super comfortable. Kitchen and kitchenette were well equipped. Internet was super fast and worked everywhere on the premises. And there are so many extras. Pool, shaded hammock area, barbecue area upstairs and downstairs, pool/billiards. There’s a mini cinema for Netflix and other streaming services. Popcorn. Coffee. The place even has a barbershop. It doesn’t look like much from outside but inside is awesome.
Sometimes had to wait a little to be let in since outer keys aren’t provided, but this is standard in Colombia for safety reasons. It’s not in the town but a taxi is about 14k and a moto much less. And it’s in an area with plenty of grocery stores and a bar just down the road.
La tranquilidad del lugar, pese a estar en la ciudad el lugar es mágico, te permite conectar con la naturaleza. La comida que preparan allí es deliciosa. Recomendadisima
Todo estuvo perfecto
The best thing is Junior cut hair Nice hair cut
Great spot close to lots of shops. Staff were incredibly helpful and organised a pizza for us after our 9hr bus. Room and air con were great would recommend staying here in Santa Marta.
This is a comfortable and relaxing hostel, kids loved the pool and kid noise is not an issue, pool table and chess table are great, super market and a great bakery around the corner, easy access to Palomino bus stop. Great value with simple comfort
A little out of town but a cheap trip in the taxi and being out of town has its advantages for quick overnight stops
I highly recommend Hostal Kaia for a stay in Santa Marta. The staff there are very friendly and go out of there way to help you on your travels. Gloria and James were always happy to recommend and give directions to local restaurants or shops. Gloria even contacted a friend who gave me a taxi ride to Minca that saved me a lot on travel fees. Hostal Kaia has a relaxed and chill social environment where it’s easy for a lone traveller to make some mates, whilst offering peace and quiet when you want to sleep. The hostel has beautiful art work, hammocks and hanging chairs next to the pool perfect for a book read, internet scroll (great wifi) or a few beers. As a unique added bonus there is a barber shop inside the hostel operated by Junior. He gives great haircuts and really takes his time with the work to give you a professional trim. I highly recommend this hostel.
The Hostal is a way away from the town centre or beach. However the beach is not really that much of attraction (lots of city runoff and quite small) and it is only a 10mil peso ride into town. So not much of a con.
I loved the location. I come to Santa Marta frequently and didn’t want to stay in el centro. Barrio jardein is centrally located and easy to get to anywhere and a little more relaxed. I loved the pool. It was cool and clean and refreshing. I loved the owners Jason and Gloria. They were so friendly and helpful.
Very clean, very comfortable and outstanding friendly personnel.
I am surprised this place is not more popular with travellers. Although not in the city centre it is only a short bus or taxi ride away. The kitchen is well equipped, the social area is amazing with plenty of hammocks to relax in and even an outdoor projector to watch films! Swimming pool also very nice. Double room was spacious, clean and had air con and WiFi was strong. It's great value for money.
No 24 hour reception or key to main door so sometimes we would be waiting outside for 5 minutes or so to be let into the hostel
Private room I had offered great AC and fan. Very friendly owner and staff who work hard to meet any requests and keep their guests happy. Adorable dog (never barks) that is easy to fall in love with. Extremely fast Interenet with more than one connection. Loved the pool and lots of common areas to relax.
This hostal was a great place to stay. The room was comfortable and clean. There were many nice places to chill around the property and the pool is small but really nice and refreshing, and there are two kitchens to be used. The staff were all so kind and helpful with whatever we needed. It's a bit out of town but there were shops around and also buses go right by or there are tons of taxis on the main road.
The kitchens could use a little bit of TLC and make sure the fridge gets cleaned out.
