Dragos (10/5): -
Seline (4/5): -
Luisa (10/5): -
Sofia (10/5): - Todo
Ferdinando (9/5): - Todo bien. Exelente el personal. En especial Ismael, siempre dispuesto
Franco (7/5): -
Raquel (10/5): El sitio perfecto para tus vacaciones - Nos hicieron sentir como en casa, especialmente Ismael y Naye que son geniales, amables, cálidos y divertidos y siempre dispuestos a ayudarnos hasta el punto que no nos queríamos ir de allí 🧡 la habitación además era un sueño y la ubicación perfecta. Volveré sin ninguna duda (además tenemos que probar la comida que cocina Ismael)
Nathanael (9/5): - Die Lage war direkt am Strand und sehr ruhig man hört nur das Meer in der nacht. Die Zimmer sind schön und Man kann einen Längeren Aufenthalt geniessen. Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit. Super zum Surfen. Wen man mit einem Koffer anreist muss man den etwa 8min über den Sand Tragen. Wen sie das vorher der Unterkunft mitteilen finden sie sicher eine Lösung.
Rudolf (8/5): - Es ist schwierig zu erreichen mit grossem Gepäck. Die Lage war super.
Ruiz Quintero (9/5): - El lugar es único y muy particular. Es una casa muy bien organizada, limpia y muy bien decorada. Las habitaciones privadas son completas y muy lindas. Lo mejor del lugar es su personal. Ismael fue un excelente anfitrión y siempre atento. Lo mejor de nuestra estadía fue la comida y los cafés filtrados que Ismael que nos preparó. Es la mejor opción para comer por la zona. Las habitaciones que están frente al mar son abiertas, no hay ventana de vidrio y si te molesta el ruido del mar o tenes un sueño liviano no son la mejor opción. Nosotros nos acostumbramos al rato y el sonido del mar no molesta. Todo impecable.
Helena (6/5): - La ubicación y el desayuno
Monica (10/5): Descanso y amigos - La atención de los colaboradores Mary e Ismael hacen que uno se sienta como en su casa. La ubicación fantástica porque es una zona tranquila y de descanso pero consigues todo lo que necesitas.
jaime andres (10/5): Celebración de la VIDA - La experiencia en Casa Dos Almas ha sido maravillosa, realmente disfruté la estadía, el feeling del espacio y las personas que trabajan ahí es muy acogedor y tranquilo. Nuestra habitación fue INCREÍBLE, el árbol que protege la casa al nivel del tercer piso refuerza la sensación de conexión con la naturaleza que estaba buscando, ni que hablar de la vista al mar y el sonido de las olas.
Vanessa (8/5): Ich würde wieder kommen. - Das Personal war nett und hat mir immer weitergeholfen. Mir wurden tolle Dinge empfohlen, die meinem kurzen Aufenthalt einzigartig gemacht haben. Ich habe mich gut aufgenommen gefühlt und das Frühstück war toll. Leider war die Musik abends sehr laut, dafür kann aber das Hotel nichts.
Andres (9/5): Casa Dos Almas: Sierra, Río y Mar en un mismo lugar - Un lugar maravilloso a pocos metros de la unión del río Mendihuaca con el Mar Caribe, con paisajes espectaculares y amaneceres inolvidables. El hotel es limpio, tranquilo y respetuoso con el entorno. La atención es excelente y los desayunos muy buenos y bien presentados. Ideal para descansar y disfrutar de la naturaleza. En las noches se siente un poco de calor, sería ideal contar con aire acondicionado. También sería valioso que el hotel considerara paneles solares como respaldo para los momentos de lluvia.
LAURA (10/5): 100 % recomendado - La atención fue excepcional y la comida estupenda. Ismael cocina delicioso. El hotel está literalmente frente al mar, muy cómodo. Volveremos!!! Nos gustó todo
ortega (10/5): -
Cohen (10/5): - Très belle vue, le personnel très sympathique
Maud (8/5): - Super petits déjeuners Personnel très sympas Les pieds dans l’eau
Jean-Jacques (7/5): Un cadre magnifique mais un hôtel assez plan plan aux prestations minimales - La localisation sur la plage, et la Chambre ouvrant sur la mer. Accès mal commode avec valises qu’il faut tirer dans le sable pendant 800m. Pas d’eau chaude pour la douche. Et pas de petit déjeuner sur place car hôtel pas livré ce matin… ne propose rien pour les activités, il faut demander et surtout anticiper (bateau pour Tayrona) déjà parti quand on s’est levé le matin…
Camilla (10/5): Amazing - Location. The room with sea view was incredibile. Ismael and Marieangel were simply fantastic, help us with everything and are incredibile cooks. Nothing
Omar (10/5): -
Noemí (10/5): Fabuloso lugar atendido por los mejores!! - La atención del equipo, la playa, la calidez de todos!!! Nada
Pascal (7/5): -
Miguel Angel (10/5): Mendihuaca salvaje - Trato del personal y ubicación en una playa salvaje junto a la orilla.
Lauren (10/5): - Friendly staff, delicious breakfast, comfortable bed
MONROY (7/5): Distancia exagerada desde el parqueadero hasta el hotel y ningún apoyo ni orientación - Agradable Muy lejos. Desde el lugar del parqueadero hasta el hotel y por senderos sobre arena sin iluminación, la distancia cargando nuestras maletas es incómoda, sin ayuda, sin guia. No lo recomiendo.
Marie-Thérèse (9/5): Wonderful, relaxing stay - Casa Dos Almas is located directly at the Mendihuaca beach, features a beautiful common area and nicely designed rooms that are worth the price. We came here after the strenuous Ciudad Perdida hike and found what we were looking for: relaxation. The terrace had an amazing view of the mountains and palm trees. Cleaning was provided daily and staff on site was always friendly. You can’t really swim at the beach here but you can cool off in the river close by. You can even go by boat to Tayrona park. One thing that could be improved is adding prices to the breakfast menu otherwise people might get the impression that it is always included. Staff does not speak English at all so it was a bit complicated to communicate sometimes although everyone gave their best.
Dea (10/5): Would love to come back. - It was beachfront and well taken care of. Ismael and Mary were super kind hosts and there for us for everything we needed. This made our experience so good and enjoyable. -
Christopher (3/5): -
LUISA FERNANDA (10/5): ¡Casa dos Almas es el mejor lugar para reconectar con el alma, la naturaleza y la tranquilidad! - Casa Dos Almas es un lugar precioso, con un gusto exquisito y totalmente distinto a todo lo que ofrecen los alojamientos de la zona. La decoración es preciosa, las habitaciones limpias y las personas que están a cargo son amables, cálidas y generosas. Te hacen sentir como en casa. La comida es excepcional y con sabores increíbles de la zona. Ismael, Naye y Mary hicieron de nuestras vacaciones familiares un recuerdo memorable. Recomendamos la experiencia de cena experimental de Isma, las arepas de Naye y los jugos de Mary. ¡Es un lugar para regresar una y mil veces!
Luis Esteban (10/5): - Una experiencia mágica de desconexión total
Pinilla Perez (10/5): Un lugar maravilloso con gente encantadora - El sitio en el que está situado es una maravilla, en una zona calmada pero cerca de sitios con ambiente. El personal de la casa muy acogedor y el responsable, Ismael, maravilloso. Tuvimos un percance con el agua (la bomba dejó de funcionar) y lo solucionó enseguida. También ha estado atento a nosotras durante toda la estancia y generaba muy buen ambiente entre los hospedados. La comida buenísima también, recomiendo probar una de las cenas de Ismael. Se nos hizo muy corto. Si vas a hospedarte por esta zona, te recomiendo quedarte más de 2 noches y poder pasar 2 días enteros en la casa y alrededores, independientemente del día que tengas pensado visitar el interior del parque natural de Tayrona.
Tiphaine (8/5): - Emplacement sur la plage, chambre donnant sur la mer, jolie deco, personnel aux petits soins Rapport qualité prix
Daniel Mateo (10/5): -
Capucine (10/5): Une pause au paradis - J’ai passé une nuit dans cet hôtel, expérience incroyable: le bruit des vagues Le petit dej est très très bon ! Et merci à Ismaël pour son attention ♡
Ana María (8/5): Gran lugar para conectar con la cultura, buena comida y naturaleza! - La casa es muy linda, se siente nueva, bien ubicada y es agradable. Mucho ruido y la vista de la habitación en donde nos quedamos no es agradable, da a un patio lleno de escombros y desorden
Livia (7/5): Lamentablemente una decepcion - Teníamos muchas ganas de pasar unos días en Casa Dos Almas. La habitación Suite es muy bonita y las vistas son preciosas. Las olas del mar son extremadamente fuertes, lo que no nos permitió dormir bien, aunque entendemos que eso es parte de la naturaleza y no nos molestó. Nos organizaron una ruta a caballo muy recomendable! Habíamos visto muchas fotos y todas las reseñas eran muy positivas. Sin embargo, al llegar nos sentimos decepcionados. La casa está poco cuidada y el personal no parece estar realmente interesado en su trabajo. Habíamos acordado desayunar a las 07:30 porque queríamos salir temprano hacia el Parque Tayrona, pero no apareció nadie por la casa hasta las 07:55. Además, lavamos nuestra ropa y tuvimos que esperar dos días para recuperarla. Nos dijeron que nos la llevarían a la habitación, pero tuvimos que preguntar varias veces y finalmente ir nosotros mismos a buscarla a otra habitación, donde estaba arrugada, “secándose” sobre una cama. No recibimos ninguna disculpa. En definitiva, pagar más de 100 euros por noche por ese servicio y trato nos pareció inaceptable.

Pauline (9/5): Stilvolles Haus mit toller Strandlage - Das Casa ist super stilvoll eingerichtet und schön zurecht gemacht! 1A Lage am Strand und super nah am Flusslauf in dem man gut baden kann. Wir hatten für drei Nächte die Suite mit Meerblick, der Ausblick war fabelhaft und der Balkon echt toll! Das Frühstück was angeboten wird ist super lecker! Auch das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! Für die Lage am Strand ists auch nachts mit dem Meer ganz schön laut und mit einem Standventilator recht warm. Im Zimmer mit Gartenblick haben wir besser geschlafen.
Le (7/5): -
Matthias (10/5): - Alles super
Carlos Andrés (10/5): - La comida muy deliciosa, el lugar muy chévere
Mariana (10/5): Excelente opción - Todo. Las instalaciones están super cómodas frente al mar; el personal súper amable; la comida deliciosa. No hay demasiada gente en la playa, así que se puede disfrutar. Hay muchas cosas que hacer cerca.
Sandra (10/5): Un pedacito de paraíso. - Este fue un viaje de trabajo por distintos lugares de Colombia y Casa dos almas fue el ultimo destino para descansar antes de volver a Chile. Al llegar al lugar lo primero fue su ubicación por que el paisaje es hermoso, la casa es exactamente igual a las fotos, la limpieza excelente en todos los espacios de la casa, el espacio fue perfecto para ir a relajarse por su tranquilidad tanto en la casa como en la playa misma. En cuanto a los anfitriones de la casa, fueron los mejores de todo este recorrido por Colombia, cuando llegamos estabamos muy cansadas y nos estaban esperando con una limonada maravillosa, nos dieron todos los datos turisticos que necesitabamos, el desayuno era una maravilla, yo soy alergica alimentaria y la ultima noche nos preprararon una cena insuperable tomando en cuenta mis restricciones alimentarias, y como si eso no fuera suficiente jajaja tuvimos largas y entretenidas conversaciones con ellos, que nos hicieron sentir como en casa. Quedamos absolutamente seguras de querer volver para otras vacaciones, por que se siente como estar en el paraíso. No tengo ninguna queja, fue una excelente experiencia.
Andres (10/5): Gran sitio para hospedarse - Muy limpio, ordenado y la atención espectacular. En la playa deberían de ejercer un poco más de control con las mascotas (propias y de huéspedes), suele uno encontrar popó de perro en los alrededores y estando uno descalzo puede pisar y esto podría generar problemas de salud
Javier (10/5): - Ubicación perfecta, en la misma playa y a menos de un minuto de bañarte en el río. Casa de lujo, la mejor de todo el Caribe, camas comodísimas. Habitación grande frente al mar o frente al manglar. Desayunos impresionantes con jugos riquísimos. Surf, Canoas, Tayrona, cascadas, Tubbing, hay de Todo . Espectacular. Tener que irme
Sanchez (9/5): Fue acogedor, las personas fueron amables, la casa está limpia y muy bien decorada. Excelente lugar - Su casa en madera es muy linda, limpio, el personal es amable Creo que no habían habitaciones hacia la playa y el colchón de la cama extra es algo delgado.
tu (10/5): - The staff is super friendly, very helpful, they gave me very good tips on how to visit Tairona and also the nightlife scene. I had the opportunity to join the staff as they were adding some items to the food menu, and they were kind enough to invite me to sample the new dishes. By the way the breakfasts are amazing!
Vanessa (10/5): - La casa hermosa y acogedora, vistas hermosas y Vanessa una anfitriona inmejorable.
Peter (8/5): - Everything was really good. I didn’t like that there was not enough ventilation and became very hot, even with the fan at full speed.
Yannick (10/5): - “Un immense merci à Iris pour son accueil et sa disponibilité, toujours avec le sourire. Casa dos Almas est un véritable havre de paix : les chambres sont superbes, décorées avec goût et beaucoup de soin. On s’y sent immédiatement bien. Un lieu que je recommande sans hésiter !” Dommage cependant pour la musique très forte juste à côté de l’hôtel, qui enlève un peu de tranquillité à ce cadre magnifique.”
Santiago (6/5): - Value for money
Alessandra (7/5): - Posizione meravigliosa per staccare la spina un paio di giorni. Purtroppo durante il giorno ha piovuto e la sera alle 19:00 è saltata la corrente fino al giorno dopo, non è stato molto piacevole e tutte le altre strutture sulla spiaggia avevano invece la luce. Un po’ caro a mio avviso rispetto a ciò che offre e alla struttura
Jeanne SULZER (10/5): -
Adriana (10/5): Lugar único para desconectarse!!! - El lugar es increíble, la habitación tiene una vista única, el mar esta justo en frente, no tiene precio dormir escuchando las olas!!! La casa tiene una disposición que invita a compartir con los demás huéspedes!! Nada, todo fue perfecto!!
Nikolas (8/5): - Great host and staff. Very chilled and cute place The rooms do not have outside walls which to some people it might be an issue, ie privacy, noise etc. Personally I liked the concept.
laura (9/5): - Struttura molto bella e ben situata. È un paradiso per qualche giorno di completo relax nella natura
camille (9/5): -
Frédérick (9/5): - L’amabilité du personnel. L’hôtel directement sur la plage, la jolie chambre et les très bons petits déjeuners. Un peu bruyant mais cela ne nous a pas empêché de dormir. Il n’y a qu’un ventilateur au dessus d’un des lits. Encore une fois, rien de très grave.
Alessandro (9/5): Vista top! - Vista sul mare, possibilità di fare colazione in loco, posizionato in una spiaggia tranquilla, brezza fresca anche la notte, si dorme benissimo e senza zanzare La struttura, se pur molto bella, avrebbe bisogno di alcuni lavori strutturali per garantire maggiore sicurezza
James (10/5): Exceptional -
Xavier (9/5): Superb - Great cute hotel with nice staff ! Recommended to a friend Maybe to include breakfast
Johanna (9/5): Great tropical experience at the beach front! - The property is beautifully built right in front of the ocean. The rooms are spacious and comfortable with great views of the tropical mountains or the beach. Breakfast was delicious freshly made by Mari and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Jose, the property manager was very helpful and accommodating! He helped us booking had great massages, at any time of the day. I would definitely recommend a stay here The walk to the house is long from the parking and there is no walkway. Usually not a problem unless you have heavy luggage. The shower only has cold water, which is great for the temperature but was hard for showering my two year old at night.
Jorgensen (5/5): Cute hotel right on the beach with a short ride to Tayrona park! - I enjoyed the close proximity the river and beach. I didn’t like the bugs in the room that got in between the floor and the doors. I also didn’t like the communications from the hotel. The hotel is located in a remote place with no ATM for over an hour in either direction, and they did not warn guests of this.
Charlotte (10/5): Amazing place in a hidden paradise. Nice and clean with a lovely staff! - Such a cute place in the middle of a small paradise beach. The place has a lovely vibe and very wonderful staff and service! The rooms were very nice and clean, and the breakfast was very good. We really enjoyed staying here! Would definitely come back!
Clair (9/5): Superb -
Sarah (8/5): Glamping Paradise - A wonderful beachfront experience! We stayed in the 3rd floor suite and we're greeted with ocean breezes and beautiful views. The room was comfortable but it's helpful to know that it's a little closer to "glamping" than a typical hotel room. The walls are not sealed and there's a large open air window in the bathroom so you're living with nature - many geckos in particular, which we enjoyed. There's no hot water (or even a nob) but a cold shower is welcomed in the heat. The location is stunning but you need to be prepared to carry your suitcase about 5 minutes down the beach in the sand or have cash on hand to pay a friendly local to do it for you. I highly recommend if you're looking for something on the beach and off the grid.
Tom (8/5): Very good -
Jeremy (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing stay on the beach, with gracious and helpful hosts. Helped coordinate adventures and transportation.
Daniela (8/5): Beautiful place on the beach - Beautifully decorated and very nice host. We had several roaches in our luggage, no hot water and I didnt think that getting there by foot with luggage would be a big deal but it was a bit of a walk.
Iris (10/5): Amazing location, highly recommended! - The location of the hotel is unbeatable, right in front of the sea and at just few steps from a crystal waters river (which is very convenient as the sea can be very rough). Is also very close to Costeño Beach party places and just 15 minutes away from beautiful Tayrona Park. The hotel is stylishly decorated and is full of small details. The beach front suite was super beautiful and the experience of sleeping with the sound of the ocean waves was just simply amazing. Sunrises are crazy beautiful. People from staff were super helpful and friendly, they gave us great tips to discover the area and we made the cacao tour and the horseback riding tour which was unbelievable. Breakfast was delicious.
Issy (7/5): Beautiful shared wooden house on the beach - Beautiful wooden house right on the beach, with very well designed interior. Very good communication and host kindly booked us a taxi for our departure. Breakfast was delicious. The host passed on the debit card payment fees to us (an additional COP 30,000) despite my initial request to pay in cash as we had left over COP, which I feel needed to have been highlighted and leaves a bit of a sour taste. By paying by card I was doing them a favour but then was charged extra. Mosquito nets are needed to be installed as this was the only place we were bitten at night during our 2 weeks in Colombia and this did affect our stay. Hot water would be nice.
Suhas (8/5): Very good - Amazing location near pristine mangroove forest rivers which also had kayaking. Beach right in front with green cocnout plantation and rainforest from the balcony at the back. Great live music next door with a cocktail bar of drinks we enjoyed like coco loco. We couldnt use the kitchen shown in the pics to cook our own meals. It was a bit misleading to see that pic. The parking lot to Casa dos almas was not stroller friendly and it was hard to pull the stroller and heavy luggage on beach sand. But we got porter support. It will be good to mention this in the reservation so guest are not negatively surprised when making the reservation. There was also no hot water showers. It was also not mentioned in the booking.
Marta (10/5): Exceptional -
Jain (1/5): Bad - The property is a scam, the reviews are fake. Don’t go by the reviews. The manager is a rude and racist and does not give any information. It’s unhygienic and not clean. The towels and bed sheet stink. We were there for 2 nights on night one we have no electricity and no water and they said it was because of a storm, but the rest of the beach had generators and electricity. The 2nd night my shower was broken and they said oh it’s because of the water pressure. The manager doesn’t give any relevant info. The beach is not what it is in the pics it’s not a good beach for swimming. They say you can go by boat from there to tayrona but after speaking to locals we realised it’s not safe to go by boats and many accidents have taken place. After all this, they offered me a discount so I can not review them negatively, save your money and book the hostels that are next to this hotel instead. Much better and nicer people
Jake (10/5): Perfect! - Lovely setting, room looks onto the beach. Breakfast finishes early
Sam (10/5): A beautiful beach side accomodation - The staff were fantastic (especially the host Joseph) and made us feel totally relaxed and at home. The beach location was amazing with surfing, river kayaking and easy access to Tayrona (by boat, bus or taxi). This was the nicest and safest feeling place we stayed during our trip to Colombia.
Nikola (10/5): Great stay on the beach - At the beach, in the place where water is nice and no big waves. The host is amazing and will help with everything! The style is also very sweet. Breakfast is delicious! Nothing. Maybe they can offer to buy mosquito spray as that is something you will need it!!!
Giovanni (10/5): Exceptional - Owner is awesome, gave us a lot of helpful info and helped us out when we had to figure out what to do with our luggage when we had activities planned for the day we checked out.
Lucy (10/5): Exceptional -
Michael (8/5): If I come back to Santa Marta, I’m staying here again. Josep and casa dos almas is incredible. - Josep the manager was awesome. One of the best hotel managers I’ve experienced. The room was always top notch clean and they used repellent to keep the mosquitos out. I loved the vibe and no shoes allowed inside vibe. This isn’t really a con if the property, but just be aware that in ALL locations in this area, there will be mosquitoes outside. You are in the jungle it’s natural. But they destroyed my legs and it did affect my quality of stay slightly.
Morgan (10/5): Basically paradise. - The beach is beautiful, clean and peaceful. Furthermore, it feels really safe. The design is tasteful, the breakfast was delicious, and the hosts were really helpful, lovely, and friendly! I honestly can't think of anything I didn't like.
Iris (10/5): The perfect place for beach holidays - Staying at this beach house was an absolute delight from start to finish. We were struck by the beautiful decor, which perfectly blended coastal charm with modern style. The atmosphere was both relaxed and welcoming, making us feel instantly at home. Our room. The master suite was simply amazing with an unforgettable panoramic view of the sea specially at sunrise. The hosts were warm, friendly, and incredibly helpful. They ensured that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Whether it was recommending local restaurants, spots to explore or the most exciting tours close by. We enjoyed the tubing in a near river and Tayrona park trek. The breakfasts were nothing short of amazing. We highly recommend staying at this house. Nothing, everything was fantastic both in the house and surroundings.
Agathe (6/5): Bittersweet stay - Beautiful hotel, and nicely located within Mendihuaca. While the aesthetic appeal of Casa Dos Almas was undeniably impressive, our stay quickly turned sour. The beds, unfortunately, were hard to the point of discomfort, and its small size made for a cramped experience. The noise from the overhead fans, coupled with the intrusive sounds from neighbouring rooms (although no one was loud, you do hear peoples' low chatters), significantly disrupted our sleep. While the owner was undoubtedly charming when my partner voiced out the noise issue, we felt that her blaming it on the neighbours was somewhat dismissive. Given the lack of shared walls with the hotel next door, it was more than evident that the disturbance originated from within the building. It's a shame that such a beautiful property was marred by these issues, which ultimately detracted from our overall stay. I guess, those can be fixed someday.
Victoria (10/5): Wonderfully relaxing - Lovely design, very calming and a very homely. Josep was incredibly helpful with anything we needed. Breakfast is delicious. The beachfront where the hotel is located has a nice community feel to it. Nothing.
Tomás (9/5): Superb - Joseph was super friendly and gave us lots of useful tips and information about the region.
Mats (10/5): Amazing. Highly recommend! - This is such a wonderful place. Aesthetically pleasing. Great breakfast. Very friendly en helpful host. We slept in the room with ocean view. Just a precaution to bring some ear plugs, because the sea can be quite loud.
Agnieszka (10/5): Perfect stay near Tayrona - I was looking for a quiet place by the beach to wind down after over a month of travelling and that’s exactly what I found at Casa dos Almas. The location is very convenient, just at the edge of Tayrona and by the Mendihuaca river (which is a nice swimming alternative on the days when the sea is choppy). The hosts are very accommodating and the decor of the whole place is fantastic, in particular the top suite. Nothing! I would love to stay there again.
Marcela (9/5): Amazing place! We will.be back soon!!! - We loved Joseph's hospitality, the location, and the many stylish details of the house. Breakfast was exceptional and our room's view to the beach was amazing. This is a great place to enjoy a peaceful time in a hidden paradise where the sea and a river meet. The bathrooms could be a bit better.
Maria (10/5): Paradise on earth. - The best way to describe Casa dos Almas is Paradise on earth! The staff friendliness and availability makes you feel right at home. The room was beautiful with stunning views. We loved everything.
Philipp (10/5): Exceptional - Casa Dos Almas is the perfect retreat on the beach, especially if you are taking the suite at the top & listening to the waves in the evening. The breakfast was amazing, so were the recommendations on & off the beach. Nothing major, the WiFi could be upgraded to Starlink for consistent connections. A mosquito net would be a plus.
Jessica (10/5): Exceptional - Super close to the beach Lovely friendly staff Nice community of beachfront properties beside each other with a little beach bar at the end Great breakfast! N/a
Marcos (10/5): Exceptional - Casa dos Almas is simply a magical place, a peaceful accommodation located in front of the sea on Mendihuaca beach. We stayed in a double room with a sea view located on the second floor. If we could describe our room in one word, it would be cozy. Everything was very clean, tidy, and beautiful, with a spectacular view of the sea under the shade of an almond tree. The bed and bathroom were very comfortable, and the room had a fan (air conditioning is not needed with the sea breeze). The accommodation has very comfortable and pleasant common areas. We had the option of breakfast included, but we opted for the "Napolitan eggs," which were very delicious. Thanks to Maria and Ela for everything, very friendly staff. Joseph has been one of the best hosts we have met, making our experience much more enjoyable, always attentive and kind. He instructed us very well about the place, helped us with everything we needed, and guided us on some activities like the Cacao Tour; he knows a lot about the area and told us about the culture and biodiversity. Probably many have not heard about Mendihuaca beach; it is a recent destination for tourists but offers tranquility and spectacular landscapes, located a few kilometers from Tayrona National Park and with easy access to the city of Santa Marta and nearby places of interest like the Sierra Nevada, Palomino, and other beaches. There are various activities available such as kayaking, surfing lessons, massages, among others, and transportation to other areas of the region is easy through moto-taxis. The local cuisine is not very extensive but offers more than enough delicious options, with Humbe as a recommendation, though all the restaurants we tried were delicious. We highly recommend this place for those who want to spend some time disconnecting and relaxing.
Camacho (10/5): Exceptional - We had a wonderful time at Casa dos almas. The staff are warm and welcoming, and they help us to plan local tours to enjoy the area. The room was cozy and clean. Waking up with the sound of waves is unforgettable. Thank you for the amazing breakfast! I can't think of anything
Iva (10/5): Cozy natural wonderful house - The location is great, right at the beach, and mangrove forest right behind the house. There are good food options near by and bar next door. There is no shoes policy which keeps the place clean, but also gives you natural, comfortable and cozy feeling. It is decorated tastefully, with a lot of natural material, beautiful forest view, and sea breeze. Have in mind if you are coming from Europe or elsewhere the 110V plugs, the place has just enough infrastructure to feel comfortable, but be mindful it’s in nature. Setting is beautiful with river and the ocean, and staff was really helpful about where to eat, helping us arrange the transport from the airport, and we were pretty demanding guests. Also there have 3 adorable kitties in the house. Only thing for me was the size of the bed I am 180cm and beds were on smaller size, it’s standard Colombian size, but might be to smaller size compared to Europe. Overall it was a great experience.
Flint (10/5): Exceptional - The staff was amazing, the location was great!!!! Would definitely go back here again! Can't think of anything
Maria (10/5): Beautiful, comfortable, cozy and amicable place! the best choice in Mendihuaca. - The stay at Dos Almas, was beyond excellent. We went with our 1 year old baby and we felt like visiting family. Javier and the rest of the staff were super helpful and very kind. They had a good chat and an excellent breakfast, very healthy. Our room had a direct view to the sea and the hotel is very close to the Mendihuaca river, for children this is a plus! so the can have a safe splash. They recommended the best restaurants and some places to visit. Many thanks guys for this unforgettable stay in Santa Marta, we hope to see you again! abrazos desde Londres!
Maëlle (10/5): Exceptional - Everything! The place is amazing, the building itself is beautiful. The room was big, with a great view on the beach. Very friendly people, we felt very welcomed. Great place to disconnect and relax! n/a
Maria (10/5): Incredibly beautiful hotel in the middle of paradise - Casa dos Almas is an incredibly beautiful hotel in the middle of paradise owned by a lovely couple. We had to leave too soon, but it's one of the places you won't forget...
