Barranquero Hotel

Tout ! l’emplacement près du parc de Tayrona (accessible à pieds ou en bus), l’arrivée atypique par la petite traversée de la rivière (très accessible et sinon Bruno peut venir vous chercher en super 4x4), le lieu à l’écart en pleine nature, au milieu d’une faune et flore exceptionnelles (nous avons eu la chance de voir des oiseaux incroyables, des singes, un iguan, des chauves souris…), les chambres spacieuses climatisées propres avec balcon ou terrasse et hamac, la déco… tout est pensé pour qu’on se sente comme chez nous. Mention spéciale pour l’accueil de Laurence et Bruno, aux petits soins, nous avons eu des échanges très enrichissants. Quel bonheur également de manger les repas préparés par Laurence, divers variés équilibrés .. bref , nous recommandons les yeux fermés et nous avons même prolongé la durée initiale de notre séjour.

We had a perfect little Jungle retreat at Barranquero Hotel. The room was very spacious, clean and comfortable and the owners were super nice. They also have a restaurant onside and we decided to eat there every night because the food was so good.

The location is very remote, which might be challenging for some but didn't bother us at all.

Tolles Essen, Frühstück zwischen Vögel, sehr nette Besitzer

Super host, super friendly staff who always wanted to help you. Breakfast was delicious, and in the evening they cook what u like, amazig experience after crossing 2 rivers (not high water) but by request they picked us with the jeep. Birds monkeys everywhere in the resort, overall a great experience. Staff speak french/spanish/English. A small walk to the tayrona park entrance.

My room was absolutely stunning, and I loved the creative design. Pola is an excellent cook, and I enjoyed the diverse breakfast + trout dinner & passionfruit drink. After I came back from my hike in Tayrona, she let me shower upstairs before my departure. Highly recommend! As others have mentioned, you do have to cross a river. It's easy with flip-flops, and the water feels refreshing on a hot day. If you have a suitcase, you can ask them to give you a quick jeep ride. They are very responsive and accommodating. Some bugs do get inside the room, but it's the jungle. Very immersive experience.

The room was wonderfully large watching the birds was a highlight as was the food

J'ai trouvé chez Laurence et Bruno bien plus qu'un simple hébergement : une vraie maison. Un endroit chaleureux où l'on se sent immédiatement chez soi et où l'on rêve déjà de revenir. Le domaine est un havre de paix unique, niché en pleine nature, parfait pour se reposer et déconnecter du quotidien. Cerise sur le gâteau : Laurence est une cuisinière hors pair qui fait voyager les papilles entre influences françaises, libanaises et argentines. Bref, si vous cherchez un cocon douillet et un accueil aux petits soins, El Barranquero est l'adresse incontournable !

Muy buena experiencia. El lugar es agradable, el servicio fue muy bueno y el personal muy amable y atento. Todo estaba limpio y bien cuidado. La relación calidad-precio me pareció muy buena. Sin duda, es un sitio que recomendaría y al que volvería. De plus le restaurant est de très bonne qualité!!! Merci beaucoup à Laurence et Bruno pour leur accueil!!!!

L’hôtel de Laurence et Bruno est très agréable et il est super bien placé proche de l’entrée du parc (10 min à pieds). Les hôtes sont très accueillants et les repas proposés sont bons !

Das Barranquero Hotel liegt nicht nur wunderschön, quasi schon im Dschungel, sondern ist von den Betreibern Pola und Bruno äußerst liebevoll eingerichtet und wird von ihnen mit Freundlichkeit und Herz betrieben. Ich habe mich dort so wohl gefühlt, dass ich kein Bedürfnis hatte, in den Tayrona NP selbst weiterzuziehen. Man kann auf eigene Faust Spaziergänge am Fluss und die Hügel hinauf durch den Wald machen und hört Brüllaffen und in der Dämmerung morgens und abends (phantastisch: die Hängematten vor jedem Zimmer) die Geräusche des Dschungels (Vögel, Zikaden), einfach wunderschön. Das Essen (und Trinken) war hervorragend und die beiden Mitarbeiter:innen Lauren und Jeffrey so sympathisch wie Pola und Bruno . Ich kann allen nur empfehlen ein paar Tage im Barranquero zu verbringen (und nicht nur einen Nacht auf Durchreise). Ein Ausritt mit Bruno auf Kalif, dem sanftmütigsten Pferd der Sierra Nevada, war ein Highlight, ebenso eine kleine Wanderung zum Merkaba Elixir, einem einzigartigen Ort, der Café, Rastplatz, Aussichtspunkt aufs Meer und gleichzeitig das Zuhause der beeindruckenden Eignerin Valerie ist. Auch habe ich eine großartige Massage von Sommer genossen, direkt vor meinem Zimmer beim Zwitschern der Vögel. Ich wäre gerne noch viel länger geblieben- beim nächsten Mal. Absolute Empfehlung!

Da gibt es nichts, rien, nada. Ich persönlich kann auch absolut nicht nachvollziehen, wie der minikleine Fußweg mit völlig unkomplizierter Flussquerung, gesichtete Insekten oder das Klima an dieser Stelle von Gästen erwähnt werden- es ist der Dschungel- Augen auf bei der Reiseziel-Wahl ;-) BZ

L’accueil, l’emplacement et le service impeccable. 11/10.

Fabuleux séjour chez Bruno et Laurence, qui sont adorables. Tout a été conçu de leur mains avec beaucoup d'amour et de soin.Les chambres sont magnifiques, bien aménagées et décorées. En pleine nature, on rejoint l'hôtel à pied en traversant une chouette petite rivière (très agréable de s'y baigner d'ailleurs). La nourriture est excellente. L'hôtel se situe à seulement 10 min à pied de l'entrée du parc Tayrona (très pratique)

Rien

Schitterende plek en de eigenaren zijn erg vriendelijk. Airco werkt goed voor 's nachts. Let op: we moesten wel door een ondiepe rivier lopen om er te komen.

De eigenaar zei dat er geen muggen waren, maar die waren er wel :)

Good breakfast, quiet location and big room

No electricity when I arrived, the road to the property requires a river crossing so it’s a bit difficult to venture elsewhere.

The location and the owner.

Nous avons été super bien reçu par Laurence et Bruno. Nous avons très bien mangé. L’ambiance de l’hôtel est à leur image : simple et accueillant. L’endroit est calme, perdu dans la nature. À 10min à pied de l’entré du parc.

Amazing peaceful location and lovely owner! Excellent food too.

Everything - it was fabulous and Pauline and her husband are so warm and welcoming. The rooms are large and beautifully decorated with plenty of clothes hanging space, tables and even a sofa. I loved the light switches next to the bed. The patio area had everything with a table and chairs, a hammock and loungers. And to top it all of Pauline does room service, simply send a text message and coffee or beer are delivered - i could have stayed so much longer. Tayrone park is no more than 20 minutes away - what more could you want?

Having a clean, my patio got very sandy, a sweep through would have been great - but that is so minor compared to everything else - it really is idyllic if you want a chilled relaxing stay with fantastic hosts.

Een unieke locatie met een bijzondere gastvrouw en gastheer. Een ruime kamer, het eten was uitmuntend en alles in de buurt zoals het nationaal park, riviertjes en wandelmogelijkheden.

La gentillesse de Bruno et Laurence, leur cuisine succulente l'endroit de paradis qu'ils ont eux même créée. Nous recommandons sans hésiter.

We loved our stay at Barranquero Hotel. It's located in the forest, only a 10-15 minutes walk from Tayrona National Park's main entrance (El Zaino). It is close to the main road with frequent bus connection to/from Santa Marta yet quiet and peaceful. Amazing bird concert from sunrise. We have seen toucans on our first and tamarins on our last early morning from the balcony. Staff are friendly and amazing. Passing the 2 shallow rivers is not difficult and adds to the fun part. Cocoa tour option close. We were very happy with our choice, highly recommended!

This was our favourite accommodation in Colombia! It’s a total paradise. The property is right beside a beautiful sandy river that you can cool off in and explore. The host also recommended some great rock pools that we could walk to nearby on really beautiful trails. The place has been created with such love and the gardens and decoration are beautiful. The hosts are so helpful and cook delicious food! Couldn’t recommend this spot more!

We had a great stay here. It's a very nice lodge that's accessible by 10min walk from the main road (involves crossing a shallow river). The hosts were very welcoming and friendly and helped us fix the air conditioning late in the evening. The place itself is very clean and well maintained and the room was spacious and nicely designed. The breakfast was very good and filling. It's a short walk to the el zaino Tayrona entrance for those planning to go there and they kindly let us leave our bags with them whilst we were in the park. Overall a very nice stay in a beautiful and peaceful place!

Everything : the location away from the main road, the garden, the room, the food and the hosts.

Personnel adorable et aux p'tits soins. Hôtel atypique et situé au coeur de la nature, près du parc Tayrona, et au bord d'un Rio et de ruisseaux. Balcon privatif donnant sur des arbres. Laurence nous a concocté de succulents repas tous les soirs ! Bruno est un passionné et est également adorable. Nous avons traversé la rivière en jeep pour le retour, mémorable ! :)

RAS

L'accueil de Laurence et Bruno et de leur personnel a été chaleureux et bienveillant. L'endroit est très agréable, en pleine nature, près du parc Tayrona. Le fait d'avoir à traverser la rivière pour accéder à l'hôtel ajoute une touche originale et ne représente aucun danger puisque un jeune habitant du village, employé de l'hôtel, vient aider. Les petits déjeuners et les repas sont vraiment succulents. Nous regrettons de ne pas être restés plus longtemps pour partager une balade à cheval.... Nous reviendrons certainement.

Tout ! Merci à Laurence et Bruno pour leur accueil, leur gentillesse et leur cuisine ! Tout était parfait. Nous étions comme à la maison, le départ de ce paradis a été très dur pour toute la famille et surtout les enfants. C'est pour nous un moment fort de notre voyage en Colombie ! Alors oui il faut traverser deux rivières pour y accéder mais le paradis se mérite...

Rien !

Nous avons passé un super séjour chez Laurence et Bruno.Nos 2 nuits initiales se sont transformées en 4 nuits.Un lieu loin de tout, en pleine nature avec des chambres très agréables, décorées avec soin,des terrasses individuelles supers. La cuisine de Laurence est très bonne et variée. Notre meilleur séjour de notre voyage d'un mois.

Rien

Le service en français ,l'attention des propriétaires et le lieu dans la jungle avec la rivière tout près.

Rien on on est resté deux jours de plus

Unique experience in the middle of the jungle. The rooms are big and have air conditioning. All the staff was so nice and helpful.

I enjoy everything

El hotel esta en medio del bosque y por sus costados pasan varios rios lo que le otorga una sensación de conexión con la naturaleza. El diseño y construcción del hotel es genial con detalles muy interesantes. El cuarto es grande bien dotado, con aire acondicionado y muy bonito. Sin embargo, lo que mas gusto fue la tranquilidad del lugar, para nosotros que somos tan sensibles al ruido, este lugar nos permitido descansar. Solo se escucha el murmullo del rio.

Realmente nada. Para llegar al hotel se debe pasar dos secciones del rio que tienen cerca de 50 cm de alto. En un 4x4 no hay problema, no queda muy lejos de la via a Riohacha se puede caminar perfectamente. En caso contrario Bruno sale en su Toyota antiguo a recogerlos. Les recomiendo llevar algunos viveres para su estancia.

Prachtige lodge midden in de jungle. Kamer is ruim en netjes !

Ubicación a 15min andando de la entrada Zaino del Parque Tayrona. Instalaciones muy bonitas y cuidadas en un entorno inmejorable. Desayuno y comida del restaurante muy buena y a precio correcto. Staff muy amable y servicial.

Deberían informar en las condiciones que para acceder al hotel se debe cruzar un río a pie donde la profundidad es de unos 30cm si el agua está baja. No se nos ofreció ni en la entrada ni en la salida la recogida con Jeep. La ducha de nuestra habitación no disponía de agua caliente. El pago con tarjeta tiene un recargo del 5% que no se informa en las condiciones de pago.

Séjour en pleine nature, calme absolu, la traversée de la rivière à pied pour rejoindre l’hôtel est vraiment agréable. Le restaurant est délicieux, et enfin Bruno et Laurence sont adorables, un vrai plaisir d’échanger avec eux

Le calme, le restaurant (options végétariennes délicieuses), proche de l’entrée El Zaino pour visiter le parc Tayrona.

Il faut traverser une rivière à pieds pour accéder à l’établissement. Pour un ou deux jours ce n’est pas gênant et on nous a gentiment proposé de nous déposer en voiture le dernier jour avec nos bagages.

Lieu très sympa, à 15min à pieds d'El Zaino. Super resto et belles chambres. Il y a aussi des activités à faire autour de l'hôtel sans entrer dans le parc (nous ne les avons pas faites)

Lit un peu dur mais pas dramatique

Everything. We had to cross two rivers to get to the property, it wasn’t that hard, definitely recommend to come here with light luggages. It is located literally in the jungle, wonderful waking up with the sound of the nature - birds, river flow. Facilities are amazing considering the location, though no hot water for the shower, we don’t mind that much. Close to the Tayrona entrance. We definitely would like to come stay here again.

Nothing.

Laurent and Bruno were wonderful hosts. The hotel has character - with many artistic touches that give the hotel a special atmosphere. It is set next to a wide, rocky stream in the jungle, away from the road, so it is a quiet and beautiful setting. The food is excellent, with welcome variety of international dishes. Bruno has more than 40 years of experience as a horse trek guide and cares for animals exceptionally well. We would not have considered a horse trek in Colombia or Peru because of concern for how the animals are treated and environmental impact in parks like Tayrona or the Inca trail, but we went for a lovely horse ride up into the mountains behind Tayrona with Bruno. We were so glad we found the Barranquero!

Beautiful location, lovely people, fantastic ethos. What a pleasure to share our breakfast time with such an array of colourful birds. Swimming in the river was bliss!

We didn't dislike anything. But if we had to make one suggestion, it would be to put a rail on the ladder up to the mezzanine floor. Climbing up to operate the air con was a little hair-raising!

Hôtel de charme qui est vraiment sympa à découvrir, j’ai passé un super séjour au milieu de la nature, je recommande vivement.

Verblijf , midden in de jungle , schoon comfortabel.

Un havre de paix sauvage entourré de végétation luxuriante et de petits oiseaux colorés De la détente par l accueil très chaleureux de Laurence et Bruno avec un plus une excellente cuisine , des chambres confortables Une rivière au pied de l hôtel qui incite à la baignade Un endroit plein de charme que je recommande vivement

Rien ......tellement on s'y trouve bien !!!!

La atención y hospitalidad de Pola y Bruno siempre invaluables! Es mi segunda vez visitándolos y sin duda, regresaría mil veces más. Super recomendado

Rien à dire tout était parfait. Le personnel était attentionné, Laurence et Bruno sont adorables et très intéressants. Les plats étaient également excellents! Concernant le lieu, c’était magnifique, on peut voir de nombreux oiseaux. Les chambres sont propres et spacieuses. Il y a beaucoup de balades à faire autour de l’hôtel. C’est sur nous reviendrons lors de notre prochain passage en Colombie ! Thu-maï et Lucas

Mitten im Dschungel, absolut ruhig gelegenes sehr schön angelegtes kleines Hotel. Super Hosts mit tollem Team und guten Tipps, Fantastisches Essen mit französischem Touch. Direkt nebendran liegt die Finca del Fortuna, die eine interessante und leckere Cacao-Tour anbietet. Ausserdem sind Hikingtouren außerhalb des Taironaparks direkt von hier aus möglich. Die Überquerung des kleinen Flusses war für uns der perfekte Einstieg in unser Dschungelabenteuer.

NICHTS!

Excellent endroit atypique et décoré avec soin. Les détails originaux en font un lieu exceptionnel. Sans parler des propriétaires vraiment sympas ! Mention spéciale pour le poulet cuisiné par Laurence. Bref je recommande à 200 % !

Amazing jungle getaway :-)! Loved everything about our stay here, the hosts, the food, the accommodation - 10/10 would come again!

Sehr nette Gastgeber, unglaubliche Lage der Unterkunft inmitten der Natur, super Ausstattung der Zimmer. Gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

Nichts, es war perfekt.

Gérants et personnels très sympas. Établissement au calme dans un très joli cadre. Cuisine délicieuse. À 15 minutes à pieds du parc Tayrona

Cet hôtel est un pur paradis. Niché au cœur d'une forêt tropicale luxuriante, il offre un cadre à la fois sauvage et raffiné. Les chambres, conçues avec un goût exquis, sont un havre de paix où le confort est absolu. Chaque matin, j'ai eu la chance de me réveiller au milieu d'un jardin splendide, œuvre d'art d'un couple de propriétaires passionnés. Ce sont justement eux, avec leur sens de l'hospitalité et leur amour pour la nature et la gastronomie, qui font tout le charme de cet endroit. Le personnel, aux petits soins, et les plats délicieux concoctés par la charmante Laurence, ont rendu mon séjour inoubliable. Cet hôtel est la promesse d'un séjour magique : des prestations dignes d'un 5 étoiles à un prix étonnamment abordable. Sans aucun doute, le plus beau voyage de ma vie.

L'insoutenable quiétude Le pire de tout, c'est cette tranquillité absolue. L'insupportable doux bruit de la rivière qui berce vos journées, le soin excessif apporté à une nature exubérante, la beauté des gens qui habitent cette forêt, leur respect et leur paix contagieuse... Tout cela est un véritable défi pour quiconque cherche le stress du quotidien. C'est le seul défaut que j'aie pu trouver : un dérangement perpétuel de bien-être.

The room was nicely decorated. The air conditioning was excellent and the food was healthy. Absolutely no complaints.

The atmosphere of the hotel is amazing. Nature is fused with every corner. Everything here, from the keys to the room to each flavor in the meals, was carefully designed to provide a comfortable and relaxing experience.. The staff and owners were very friendly and kind with us. The activities and amenities are also worth exploring. I particularly liked the sound of the river by the dining area, the music selection, the comfort of the beds, and above all, the air conditioning!!. Make sure you call in advance to coordinate your arrival.

Our experience was great. No bad comments.

The owners, Bruno and Laurence, and their employee David were absolutely lovely, helpful, and warm. The property is stunning with gorgeous trees, plants, and birds all over the place. The food and drinks were good and made to order whenever I wanted. The location is perfect, right on the river and walking distance from the Tayrona entrance. The rooms were very pretty and comfortable, with tons of great spaces to sit and enjoy the nature, both inside and out. I hope to return again one day for a horse ride!

Unfortunately, the bugs did start to infiltrate the room after a big rain and I got a bit overwhelmed. I don't mind a few bugs getting in, but they were everywhere. I recommend upgrading the doors to prevent bugs from getting in through gaps between and under the doors. The owners were very helpful in resolving the situation and making sure I was comfortable, which I greatly appreciated.

Very friendly and helpful staff. After our stay they offered us free ride thru the river. The room was spacious and comfortable. Surroundings were fabulous. Breathtaking views on the river :)

Nothing, this place was wonderful

Great accommodation, spacious rooms (air conditioning) in a spacious, well-kept, quiet complex on different levels with a hammock on the veranda (ideal for bird watching) on ​​the other side of the river, about 1 km from the entrance to the national park. Possadas San Rafael bus stop on National Road 90, 500 meters to the hotel. The river (Rio Piedra) can easily be crossed on foot when the water is knee-deep. The accommodation is well signposted. The very nice, absolutely uncomplicated owner Pola (speaks French, English and Spanish) sends directions via WhatsApp. Her husband also picks you up in an off-road vehicle. Excellent, hearty breakfast and dinner. Very tasty dishes, with good value for money. We felt very comfortable there.

I stayed here for 3 nights with my sister and its an incredible place. You really do feel properly immersed in nature and the rooms are comfy, food is yum and theres a nice chill out area. However, Be warned the river is not small ! But it kindof added to the sense of adventure and if you walk further up there is a bridge but it does take longer

Lovely guesthouse close to the El Zaino entrance of Tayrona national park, surrounded by jungle and rivers. The rooms were spacious and really well-equipped with a big windowfront and there‘s a nice restaurant/chill out-area. The hosts put a lot of love into the space, they were super kind and served delicious breakfast and food. There some walks and hikes to beaches and waterfalls.

Just be aware that you need to walk a bit and through a river to get there. The hosts can send someone to help you.

I enjoyed my stay at Barranquero Hotel. Paula and her husband are very gracious hosts and clearly have put a lot of work into creating a warm, comfortable and welcoming place. January is supposed to be a dry month in Colombia, but NOT this year. They were saying that in their 10 years, they had never seen it like it was. You have to wade through the river to get to the hotel. This I think is part of the charm. It was only calf to thigh high at most when I first crossed. My suggestion is to have Paula send one of the workers to show you the best way across or if you’re lucky, someone else who knows the sand bars under the water will be going across in front of you. Also be very mindful if it is going to rain. If the rain comes, it becomes too dangerous to cross. There is a foot bridge around a 15 min walk upriver that is passable when the water is high. I had to take it the morning I left because it rained most of the night and started up again in the morning. The included breakfast is great and I had dinner there two of my nights and was impressed. I really enjoyed the room I had. You got to it down a short pathway and it was spacious and surrounded by lush tropical vegetion making it feel very private.

Everything was perfect, the location, the surroundings, the nature, and above all, the staff , from the owners to each one who works there.

An amazing place to stay with the beautiful grounds, large clean rooms, and quiet location except for the sound of the river. Super food! And the staff and owners are so friendly and approachable and ready to help. It really is a relaxing place! Note: to get there from the main road, you have to walk through a river (which got up to thigh-level after some heavy rain) but one of the guys can help with your bag if it's too difficult to carry across on your own. If you have a rucksack you'll be fine.

This place is beautiful. Our room was on the ground floor with its own patio with 2 loungers and a hammock. From the room, which has huge sliding glass doors, you look out to a lush jungle of a garden. It is so quiet apart from the noise of birds and other creatures. The food in the restaurant is really good and delicious cocktails. The staff here are really kind and helpful, and the owners go out of their way to make sure you have a really lovely stay. There is a river next to the hotel with shallow water with lots of swimming opportunities and rocks to sit on, as well as walking trails beside the river. I would have liked to have stayed longer. It's a very relaxing place.

Nothing

We loved the place so much that we stayed for one more night than planned. Incredibly beautiful garden and rooms in the middle of nature. Everything amazingly clean and comfortable. Just 15 minutes walk to the main entrance of Tayrona El Zaino. Also the included breakfast was great and they always asked you if you want more coffee, or more bread, which never happened to us in Colombia before. Pola and Fernando really know how to deal with tourist and how to fulfill our wishes and expectations. We had dinner always there, since the food was of excellent quality too. It is worth to pay a little bit more, because you really get more than you expect here. Close by there are beautiful places to swim like 'la poza del amor' and beautiful beaches you can easily reach by bus like 'costeño beach', we recommend both very much too.

We loved crossing the 2 rivers to get to the house but we understand that it is something that some tourists would not want to do. It is not dangerous at all, one river is of under knee level and the other is just above your feet. But even here they are so friendly and kind that they asked us before per booking if we needed help to cross the rivers they would have sent somebody, but travelling with rucksack we didn't need any help.

We loved our short stay here. We were greeted by the really friendly staff members, who were so helpful whilst we were there, and shown to our room (we were able to check in earlier than the time stated which was great). The room was a really good size with a huge balcony and AC, a must in the Tayrona heat. We ate all of our meals here, they’re not cheap but the portions are big and the food is really good. They also have a bar with a wide variety of drinks available. Breakfast was good and plentiful and included in the price of the room. The owners are really nice and even took us to the entrance of the national park one morning in their car. Very kind. We thought the location was great, it’s right on the river (which you can dip in) and completely in nature so all you can hear are the sounds of birds. We also arrived here easily using the public bus from Santa Marta, it’s walkable from the bus stop in about 10 minutes). Would definitely recommend.

Not a problem for us but worth noting that you do have to walk through the river to get to the accommodation. They will help if you need it though. When we were there, the water was low and it wasn’t difficult to cross the water, even with our big backpacks.

This is a slice of paradise. It was perfect to hear the sounds of the jungle and to birdwatch. We swam in the natural swimming pool in the river nearby which was wonderful. Bruno and his wife were very helpful in sharing ideas of the many activities we could do.

We loved being part of protecting this beautiful piece of nature. We also enjoyed the massages available there and the good food and drinks. Very friendly staff!

Beautiful tranquil location and warm welcoming staff

Clearer directions in advance of arrival to assist with finding the hotel

Very nice staff and good food. Breakfast and dinner were really nice and we loved the cocktails. Everything was really clean. But above al, the location was amazing. The place is in the middle of the jungle with alot of colorful birds and fantastic surroundings. The river where you can swim (/float in dryseason) is only a minute away and is a perfect replacement for a swimming pool (but then you are all by yourself). Would definitely recommend!

Everything, the location was magic, staff were super lovely and the vibe was perfect

Nothing, it was all amazing. You do need to bring your own shampoo though

Very quiet in the middle of the forest next to a little river …. Paradise !

Feb 20, 2024- *IMPORTANT PLEASE READ- HOTEL STAFF THREATENED TO MURDER US WITH A SHOT GUN - DANGEROUS DO NOT STAY HERE* Stayed at Hotel Barranquero one night (2/19-2/20) due to its proximity to Tayrona Park 1. We arrived about 7pm on 2/19 (after dark) due to flight and bus schedules. They don’t tell you that you have to walk through a small town and across 2 rivers (through the water) in the dark to access the hotel 2. We asked on 2/19 if anyone would be working the front at 6:30 in the morning for checkout - they assured us yes multiple times. 3. MOST IMPORTANT PART- we arrived to the front desk/bar area at 6:30am to check out. The guy in the kitchen said he’d get his boss and she would come in 10 minutes. 20 minutes later, there was still no one there to check us out. We informed the worker that if no one came by 7 we really need to leave and that they have our card on file (we booked online) and can charge the room fee to the card. Him: “then who is going to pay?” Us:”you have our card on file” Him: “if you don’t pay you’ll get shot” Us: “you’re threatening to kill us?” Him: “This is Colombia that’s how it works here” *in Spanish to the kid next to him* “go get the shot gun” 4. Anyway, obviously as I’m writing this review we are still alive, but I would highly recommend to not stay here especially if you value your safety. It’s not fun being being held hostage at a hotel and threatened to be murdered. It’s also very far from anything else and secluded with no cell service so if they did actually hurt us, no one would ever know, which is very VERY scary. The fact that they have a shotgun in the back to kill their guests is insane. 5. The other reviews are good so I’m not sure if they are fake, forced, or what, but be warned. Yes the hotel is pretty, but it is not worth your life.

Lovely quiet spot in the forest with nice local walks and rivers to wade/swim in. Room, restaurant food, and ambience all very good.

Amazing rooms and balcony. Great setting. Tasty food. 100% recommend.

The loveliest location, beautiful, serene and so relaxing! The walk across the little river is a special touch. The food is delicious and the location is perfect 🙌 We did a little hike and got to enjoy the river. The room was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Highly recommend ☺️

The Rooms are nice and big and the property looks nice. You have to cross two rivers by foot to come here. As there was rain the other day the hotel told us that a 4x4 is not able to cross the river and therefore should simply walk.

The A/C wasn’t really working so it was just 1°C lesser than outside. There were no mosquito nets. The staff was just ok - not that friendly. There are almost none restaurants or supermarkets nearby (you have to cross the river) and the water costs 2500 per Liter refill which is too much in my opinion. Also the prices in the restaurant were quite high and there are not that many options (just 1 for vegetarians)

The place is very beautiful. The food was good.

You have to cross two rivers by foot to access the hotel. The dogs are very uncomfortable.

Breakfast was very good - the location and the fittings of the room are exceptional.

All was very good

This is a hidden gem! Gorgeous secluded huge property in the jungle. The owners are very welcoming and make you feel right at home. You can swim in the river and enjoy food and drink in the restaurant, served by very kind staff.

I visited Barranquero Hotel with my 5-year old daughter. Laurence and Bruno were super hosts and accommodated us. They provided us with suggestions and activities adapted for the family. The place was quiet and absolutely beautiful. We keep beautiful memories of our visit there.

the location is incredible! such adorable details and decorations all around the property. the owners were so friendly and helpful. the staff at the restaurant were very nice, especially Maye.

I got slight allergies from the blanket on the bed.
