Hotel Waya Guajira By OxoHotel  

In the heart of La Guajira, in Albania town, this hotel sits as a gateway to the wild Guajira Peninsula. It’s about an hour from Almirante Padilla Airport (Riohacha) and within easy reach of Mayapo’s virgin beaches, the desert-meets-sea spectacle at Cabo de la Vela, the Salinas de Manaure, Wayúu rancherías and nearby Palomino.
