Calma Chicha

Lo relajado que se siente, la comida y la atencion.

Habia una telaraña en el baño

Las instalaciones muy limpias y en orden, con acceso directo a la playa y con un restaurante al lado.

Plage bien agréable et chambre qui donne littéralement sur le sable !

L emplacement

Vos voisins dorment avec vous. Aucune intimité. Aucune isolation. Trop petit.

Amazing bed, so cool view & bathroom.

There were no immediate attention , you may not find anybody if you need something urgent. There is no sound proof, like you all living in same room with your neighbours. There is no bar as it shows in photos

The bed was so comfortable, the location excellent, several bars and restaurants to hand.

For the money it was very basic

La tranquilidad, la calma, es un lugar que te permite descansar y conectar

En la noche suele sentirse bastante el calor, como sugerencia podrían mejorar los ventiladores.

Did not like.

Beach has rough sand and is very wavy. Good for surfers, that’s it.

Pousada pé na areia. Ambiente aconchegante. Cama confortável.Possui restaurante ao lado da pousada. A praia conta com vários restaurantes um ao lado do outro, servem café da manhã, almoço e jantar.

Embora o checkin seja as 15 horas, estávamos esperando na frente da pousada desde as 10 am, sendo que o quarto ficou pronto as 11am dia e só nos liberaram a entrada às 14pm. Não aceita cartão de crédito.

Sí, muy lindo!

God beliggenhed

Meget småt værelse

Schöne Unterkunft direkt am Meer! Die Aussicht aus dem Bett und den Hängematten war hervorragend! Das Bett war sehr bequem.

Es gibt keine Rezeption. Auf Whatsapp wurde uns leider nicht geantwortet.

La ubicación frente al mar, el cuarto hermoso, muy limpio.

mejorar de pronto en el wifi pero nada mas

L'emplacement avec vue sur la mer, les hamacs sur la terrasse le bar juste à côté avec les pieds dans le sable.

👍🙂⭐️

Beautifull rooms with amazing view and a lovely breeze during the night, did not miss an aircon at all. The cafe below is amazing too and the location is perfect! Nice and quiet at night which is a must for an open layout room!

On booking it says yoga classes available, that’s not true, asked prior to coming if there were yogamats to borrow instead, they sais yes, but during my stay they were not available/present at the property.

O lugar é mesmo muito bonito em frente à praia

As almofadas são muito incomodas

Me gustó todo, el lugar es muy bonito, además de seguro. La limpieza es super y las instalaciones. Las personas de logística son maravillosas, gracias

Todo me gustó.

De dorm is heel goed! Ruim, met het geluid van de zee op de achtergrond. De voorzieningen waren prima.

Het personeel was vriendelijk maar niet meer dan dat. Ik was bijna de enige gast op de dorm en miste dus een sociale vibe.

Die Lage

Sehr hellhörig. Man hört jeden Schritt oder anderen Gäste.

El diseño del lugar.

Dice habitación con balcón. Y muestran fotos del segundo piso, al momento de revisar la reserva en las fotos en verdad aparecía el segundo piso. Pero resulta que era en el primer piso. No fue un error mío revisé muy bien antes de reservar que fuera el segundo, cuando la reserva fue efectiva el boucher indicaba que era en el primero, El hotel podría especificar bien lo de la ubicación de la habitación para que no ocurran este tipo de decepciones , en verdad cuando lo reservé decía que era en el segundo. ( sentí que cambiaron las condiciones establecidas de la reserva final )

La cercanía y tranquilidad de la playa. la ubicación del hotel es eso espectacular y su dueño y trabajadores son muy amables y atentos

Great location, beach front

There was a rotten fish smell in the staircase. Lots of mosquitos. Theres not much to Do around

Bett mit Blick aufs Meer

Die Dusche hat sehr wenig Druck und es kommt vielleicht aus 40 % der Düsen Wasser, so dass das duschen und Haare waschen ziemlich lang dauert. Außerdem gibt es nur kaltes Wasser, aber das ist in den meisten einfacheren Unterkünften so.

Personal sehr nett Direkt am Strand

Sehr hellhoerig Manchmal Abflussgestank

Directly sleeping by the Ocean. From the bed you can look into the sea, listen to the waves while you are sleeping. All was very clean and the staff really friendly. Will be back :)

Tolle Lage am Strand

El sonido del mar desde las hamacas

El mini chorro de agua de la ducha, cero presión para quitar toda la arena y que no hubiera donde lavarse los pies al llegar del mar

La ubicación en la playa es maravillosa, la cercanía al río. Las camas son cómodas y tienes hamacas.

Se escucha absolutamente todo lo que sucede en las otras habitaciones, no hay privacidad

Schöner Strand und der Fluß nebenan und das Ganze überschaubar. Top

Excelente lugar

La ubicación y la limpieza

El trato del personal poco acogedor, del lugar para las bebidas siempre mala actitud, además cerraban muy temprano, falta un poco más de cordialidad y atención por el cliente

La ubicación y la vista

Que no es tan privado, se escuchan las otras habitaciones

Great location on right on the beach, very friendly stuff

Bad wasn’t comfortable and no service after 5pm

La ubicación, la gente, el bar, la estética, las hamacas. Muchísimas gracias

Si se pudiese mejorar la aislación acústica. Igualmente viajar a un lugar agreste en medio de la naturaleza, no se puede pretender más. Es espectacular

A pesar de estar cerca al mar no molesta el oleaje a la hora de dormir, descanso y relajación garantizado

Hay mucho mosco, y aunque se que eso no depende del hotel el mosquitero no está dando su 100%

La gloria de despertar con esa vista no tiene precio. Abajo tiene una cafetería exquisita y está lleno de restaurantes. Nos encantó 🫶🏻

Sumaría alguna banca para poder dejar el equipaje y no tener que dejarlo en el suelo

La localisation, le lieu, la vue...

Très bien placé

Les chambres n’ayant pas la clim, il y a une humidité constante. Les nuits sont donc très chaudes avec beaucoup de moustique (ce n’est pas grave mais un peu dérangeant)

Emplacement exceptionnel et original, avec vue depuis notre lit sur la mer ! Petit déjeuner excellent (on vous conseille le pain toasté avec Nutella !), et restaurant tout aussi délicieux. Personnel toujours arrangeant. Possibilité de prendre des cours de surf avec un prestataire sur place (ou à côté suivant les dispos)

Tout était bien

Absolutely terrible experience, avoid at all costs. They demanded cash only, tried to add VAT unfairly, and refused to issue the legally required electronic receipt. When I pointed out that the booking was made by my international partner, the manager arrogantly insisted that VAT must still be charged “to every Colombian,” which is completely false. His dismissive and rude attitude made the situation even worse. Dishonest practices clearly aimed at overcharging tourists. A disgraceful place. Massive thanks to Lumaatthebeach and Hostal velero relax for helping us to sort out our accomodation after refusing to go ahead with Clama Chicha scam ------------------ Experiencia absolutamente terrible, eviten este lugar a toda costa. Exigieron pago únicamente en efectivo, intentaron cobrar el IVA de manera injusta y se negaron a emitir la factura electrónica que es obligatoria en Colombia. Cuando aclaré que la reserva fue hecha por mi pareja extranjera, el gerente insistió de manera arrogante en que “a todos los colombianos se les debe cobrar IVA”, lo cual es totalmente falso porque no somos Colombianos. Su actitud grosera y despectiva hizo la situación aún peor. Prácticas deshonestas claramente dirigidas a cobrar de más a los turistas. Un lugar vergonzoso. Muchas gracias a Lumaatthebeach y Hostal velero relax por ayudarnos a encontrar habitacion despues de reusarnos a seguir adelante con el timo de Calma Chicha

Les vistes i la ubicació era genial

La poca privacitat de les habitacions

Excelente lugar, cómodo, bonito, limpio, volveré

Waking up with the sound of the waves, having breakfast on the beach, chill atmosphere, very sweet staff, nice food and amazing cookies, the best sunsets... 💖 Love the quiet areas where you can walk to from here... Stunning coast, be careful of the strong current at times though! 🌴🌸🦋☀️🌊⛱️

Nothing

Very nice spot The view worth the journey

What an incredible place ! The views , a quiet place .

Everything was absolutly fantastic

Everything

It was all good

Great views the rooms open to the ocean , Amazing sound of waves Really natural Shower is big Good place Great value for the price

Towels were dirty and didn’t get Change after cleaning No surfaces to put stuff Bathroom walls should be higher

Cobran el Iva y no dan factura electronica

Location was amazing. Waking up to the waves was heavenly.

No hot water for the entire stay.

You can't beat the location if you want to sleep on the beach or need to unplug. It's a small fishing/surfing village, with a touristic twist. The waves are quite intense so swimming may or may not be a good idea depending on the waves. We enjoyed watching the fisherman putting the boats in the water in the morning, the whole community comes to help. Don't expect a 5 star hotel with all the amenities, this isn't it. It's a wonderful little spot on a beautiful beach. The internet works. It's accessible by bus and a half a mile walk (or moto ride). It's also a short bus ride to the entrance of Tayrona Park. We absolutely loved sleeping with the sound of the waves.

Not the fault of the hotel, but bring bug spray. They do provide a nice mosquito screen over the bed. We used the fan when we were lounging in the hammocks.

Near to the sea. Clean room. Nice women doing the check-in. Cleaning staff cleaned every day the room. The girls who take the food orders @ the restaurant were professional and nice. The breakfast was good (not included in the price) Speakers were not allowed in the room.

-Lack of privacy- 1.Room downstairs:You could watch from outside inside the bathroom where the shower and toilet is located. Rooms upstairs:There is just a curtain inbetween your bed and the people outside which move with the wind. 2.Restaurant:Clients of the restaurant were sitting next to the room. U got exposed to their cigarette smoke. Some of them turn also their chair towards the rooms instead of towards the sea which was pretty akward. and putting their speakers on. The kitchen chef got angry when we asked for the sauce which was supposed to be served with the fish we ate there. He gave us just one and all his anger. 3.Noise:U can hear what everyone is doing in their rooms. -Smell in the rooms-which were coming from the bottom of the house.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was nice with the highlight being that you can hear the waves crash on the beach while in your bed. Totally recommend Calma Chicha

Beautiful location, all rooms have sea view

Rooms and Balconies are very close to each other, little privacy.

We liked the proximity to the beach, the private hammocks, the mosquito net.

It gets very hot especially in the bathroom.

A really nice view when you wake up, as the ocean is directly in front of you. One should be aware that in the upper rooms there is no window/door towards the ocean.

It gets quite hot but a fan is in the room.

Pleasant rooms and staff, despite unpleasant owner.

This was my 4th visit to Mendihuaca and I thought I'd try somewhere new. Never again. Like other reviewers below, I was quite shocked by the unpleasant attitude of the owner. There are two reasons why I wouldn't book this place: 1. Firstly, the very unusual restrictive check-in window of 4 hours between 2-6pm. This isn’t a problem if you’re staying very nearby, but if you’re coming from Santa Marta or Palomino, and your transport or plans are delayed beyond 6pm, then you risk being stranded without a room (and still having to pay for it). 2. Most importantly, as other reviewers mention, the owner is quite unpleasant, and doesn’t seem to give a heck about his guests once the money is in. In my case, I paid for my stay in full upon arrival. But during my stay I made use of my friends car to store my heavy luggage to make travelling easier in future days. Unfortunately the cleaners made an assumption and assumed I had checked out early. On my last night I returned to find my room locked and occupied by other guests, and the room key which I had hidden behind a door frame was no longer there. All the staff had gone home. I rang the hotel WhatsApp and sent many messages to ask for help as I could see someone had made an error and double booked the room (which remember I had paid in full for), but no one responded. So at 1am I had to walk along the beach and finally I found a hotel that had a room free. But here's where it gets even more weird… the next day I returned to the front desk, the staff apologised for the misunderstanding, but the owner has since just ignored all communications. No answer, no refund, no response to multiple calls, just didn't care that he'd taken our money, sold the same room again, left his guests without accommodation, and how that might feel. I have screenshots of the calls made, timed photos etc, but still no response. I am curious to see if he finally responds here and with what story.

Lovely staff and views right on the beach

Basic, but we expected it, and grew to like it

It’s location is amazing and you fall asleep to the sound of the waves

The rooms are very basic so if you want luxury this won’t be for you

Stunning bedrooms, couldn’t get closer to the sea if you tried. Friendly helpful staff at check in. Comfortable, cool and clean. Nice spacious bathroom too.

Filtered water would be a great addition as buying bottles all of the time isn’t great.

Relaxing stay right on the beach. More of just a basic room, the place doesn’t have much of an atmosphere, but the views and the sound of the ocean is so calming. Restaurant just opening 2 doors down.. ‘El conche y nancar’ - best fish I’ve eaten in Colombia!

Very good food! The breakfast-bowls are amazing and so is the toasted bread with eggs (it is named:mendihuaca)...stuff and owner are supernice…every room has seaview…

The staff were wonderful. Great homemade bread, cakes and cookies

The shower was a trickle, hard to wash sand off

Super open concept, in the four-poster bed or or 2 hammocks right on the beach! The sound of the sea is always present and you can't miss the rising sun. Great breakfast and dinner on the beach, meeting point because it's so good. On the right neighbor is the best surfing school with a new hostel - Mendihuaca Surf Camp, on the left is the best fish restaurant in the area. The river next to it is clean and relaxed. For everyone who relaxes without Loving inhibitions (acoustically also uninhibited, of course). Nature reserve therefore quiet at 10 p.m. - not for party fans!

Ok, sometimes a bit of a kitchen smell, but not in all rooms and not in the fresh breeze either.

Right at the beach

Far to expensive for a tiny room, where you can hear all neighbors and the walls are made of wood and partly open
