Tayrona Tented Lodge  

On Colombia’s Caribbean coast — a palm‑fringed oceanfront ecolodge just outside Santa Marta. About 3 km from Guachaca and roughly a 15‑minute drive to Tayrona National Natural Park, this beach hotel puts reef, rainforest and sea within easy reach.

Nine fully equipped ecotents blend city‑style comforts with wild surroundings. Each unit has a private bathroom, ocean views and sleeps up to three on a double bed. The design hugs the landscape, powered by solar energy and using rainwater collection for low‑impact stays.

Wake up to sea‑breeze mornings and cooling mountain air. Standout features include ocean‑view ecotents, a double‑tiered communal deck with sea views, a terrace and garden, on‑site restaurant and bar/lounge, free self parking, in‑room safes and daily housekeeping. Staff speak English and Spanish and the front desk is staffed during limited hours.

Locally sourced food is prepared daily by the chef and served communally on the double‑tiered deck with sea views. Expect fresh, regional Colombian Caribbean flavors and a relaxed bar/lounge to wrap up the day.
