Guest Reviews

• Agnieszka (6/5): Raczej bym nie wróciła - Miejsce nigdzie to było największą zaletą. Ciszą, Spokój. Miła odsługa. Można by zadbać bardziej o czystość. Śniadania też nie były jakieś dobre.
• ruth (8/5): - las habitaciones súper cómodas y lindas, el personal súper atento, el paisaje hermoso el acceso al hotel es un poco complejo
• Mylène (8/5): Un havre de paix pour déconnecter - Un havre de paix, bercé par les sons de la nature pendant trois jours. Beaucoup d'oiseaux. Si votre objectif est de vous déconnecter, cet établissement est idéal. Une charmante cascade, accessible à pied depuis l'hôtel, offre une opportunité de baignade. La chambre était spacieuse et nous avons eu l'agréable surprise de découvrir la présence de chambres familiales à notre arrivée (information non disponible sur Booking au moment de la réservation), ce qui a rehaussé notre expérience. Le gérant s'est montré aimable et efficace, faisant preuve d'une grande disponibilité tout au long de notre séjour. Nous avons apprécié les repas de qualité préparés par notre hôte, Luisa. La présence d'animaux de compagnie (chiens, chats) a été particulièrement appréciée par nos deux enfants. Il est important de noter un changement récent d'administration, ce qui a eu un impact sur notre expérience, car nous n'étions pas préparés à cette transition. Les prestations antérieures, notamment la cuisine exceptionnelle et colorée de Jorge et la décoration des chambres comme sur les photographies, ne sont malheureusement plus d'actualité. Par ailleurs, nous tenons à souligner que l'estimation de Google concernant le temps de trajet entre l'hôtel et Minca est largement sous-évaluée. Il convient de prévoir un minimum de 45 minutes pour rejoindre le village, et l'utilisation d'un véhicule 4x4 conduit par quelqu'un expérimenté ou d'une moto est fortement recommandée. Dans le cas contraire, des frais de transport significatifs sont à anticiper. Concernant les services, l'absence de service de chambre est à déplorer. Nous aurions apprécié, à minima, le remplacement du mini sac poubelle et le réapprovisionnement de la carafe d'eau, compte tenu de la chaleur ambiante dans la chambre.
• FRANCOIS (10/5): - Au milieu de nulle part c'était parfait pour nous, prévoir des 4x4 ou des motos pour venir et partir sinon accès difficilement praticable (mais l'hôtel donne des contacts). Les chambres sont confortables, les hôtes sont très sympa. Et le lieu paisible Les repas étaient très bon mais un peu chers de notre point de vue, mais cela ne nous a pas empêché d'apprécier notre séjour
• laurent (8/5): - prix nourriture chaud le soir dans la chambre. ventilateur défectueux.
• Jessica (10/5): -
• Natalia (7/5): -
• karine (10/5): -
• marc (5/5): - De waterval dichtbij is een prachtige plek. De beheerder is erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Op Booking.com staan verschillende faciliteiten die niet kloppen. Er is nauwelijks waterdruk waardoor je moet douchen onder een paar druppels. Omdat het zo afgelegen ligt ben je veel geld kwijt voor vervoer. Muggen kunnen ongehinderd naar binnen. Een klamboe is er niet maar onontbeerlijk.
• Johannes (10/5): - We had such a great time there, you’re living in the middle of the jungle. The food is outstanding and Jorge is the best host. Might come back one day! Thank you!!
• Bruno (10/5): Déconnexion totale - Une déconnexion totale en pleine nature et des repas fait maison excellent et original. Le personnel très sympathique. Rien
• Boll (10/5): Fenomenaal! - unieke locatie aan het einde van een doodlopend pad langs een riviertjes met watervallen. Heerlijk fris, ver van de wereld. Jorge heeft zijn ziel in deze plek gestopt en de keuken is geweldig en gevarieerd.
• Marat Azatjan (10/5): - ​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (6/5 Stars) – A Sanctuary in the Jungle ​Hukumeizi is not just a hotel; it’s a portal to another world. Hidden 3.5 km deep in a nature reserve, the journey itself tells you that you are about to experience something rare. I loved it so much that I decided to extend my stay and cancel other plans—this place simply doesn't let you go. ​ The property is a masterpiece of tranquility. My favorite ritual was the morning by the river, watching the sun’s rays pierce through the dense canopy of trees. It is a deeply spiritual place that allows for a total mental reset. You feel as comfortable as at home, but with the wild heart of the Sierra Nevada beating right outside your door. ​ The food here deserves its own award. Every meal is a celebration of local ingredients, served with so much heart. From vibrant ceviche to cozy candlelit dinners and the most creative breakfasts I’ve had in Colombia, the culinary experience is high-end yet soulful. ​ The team running the place makes you feel like family from the second you arrive. You can feel their passion in every corner, including the beautiful, bold art that decorates the space. ​If you are looking for a place to reconnect with yourself and nature, this is it. I’d give it 6 stars if I could. I will definitely be back to this magical jungle home. 💚
• Lubin (10/5): -
• Angie (10/5): -
• FRANZ (1/5): Por las razones negativos hemos dedecido salir antes de lo planeado. - La calma. La cama. La Limpieza. No puerta en el baño. No mosquiteros que deja entrar una gran araña. Falta agua en el lavamanos. Falta una puente para pasar el río. Por eso existe un riesgo estar atrapado en el hotel cuando llueve mucho.
• Natalya (9/5): -
• Tony (10/5): Tranquil river sanctuary for nature lovers and those looking to reset mind, body, and spirit. - Awesome remote location. Expect unpaved dirt roads through lush jungle forest and crossing a stream. You’ll be rewarded with a tranquil sanctuary with a sacred river. The light hits different here. Jorge is super responsive. The food is amazing — clean, fresh, creative, delicious. Great WiFi connectivity. It should be expected that you’re in nature and there will be bugs. This is not unexpected or an issue for me personally but guests should be aware. There is no A/C but sleeping with door to balcony open with the curtains drawn closed helps. You’ll be lulled to sleep by the babbling river. Hukumeizi is not super close to Minca, getting there requires a mototaxi or 4x4 (to get through forest to the main road) — again not an issue for me but consideration of future guests.
• Maria Clara (10/5): Realismo Mágico - La experiencia es Impresionante.... dormir escuchando el rio, levantarse con los pájaros, estar al lado de la comunidad indígena de la zona, en medio de la selva. Las habitaciones son hermosas, la comida es de un hotel 5 estrellas y la atención del host es excepcional. No duden en venir a este lugar mágico si están buscando conectarse con la naturaleza, descansar y comer la mejor comida que se comerán en Colombia.
• Karin (9/5): Culinair eten! - Het leek wel een culinair restaurant!, George kan ontzettend lekker eten maken zonder toegevoegde rommel, alles is puur. Hij kan er ook vol passie over vertellen. De locatie is om compleet tot rust te komen. Vanaf het vliegveld een 4x4 taxi nemen om er te kunnen komen. De kamer is groot en met mooie lichte kleuren ingericht. Het douchewater is koud, enige wat iets wennen is anders hadden wij een 10 gegeven.
• Alexander (9/5): - Sehr schöne Unterkunft direkt am Fluss. Der Gastgeber ist sehr freundlich u gibt sehr viele Infos in English. Das Frühstück oder auch optional/zusätzlich Mittag/Abendessen sind sehr gut u werden direkt in der offenen Küche zubereitet. Gab auch Kakao Probierrunde an einem Morgen nach dem Frühstück Die Lage ist sehr schön, aber auch sehr abgelegen. Also wenn man zu Fuss nach Minca laufen könnte, dann wäre es wirklich gut u dann auch perfekt für 2 Tage Aufenthalt, also zB immer am/im Fluss entlang. Die Option die Hälfte auf der Strasse zu laufen, sollte man auslassen. Auch für Taxis schwierig zu erreichen. MotoTaxis kommen hin von Minca aus
• Sandra (8/5): - Grote kamer met geweldig uitzicht over jungle! Prijs van eten op vastgestelde tijden
• Loïc (10/5): -
• Alvaro (8/5): - La comida y la atencion de Jorge No soy tan fan de la naturaleza
• Neta (10/5): Amazing - Such a special stay in Minca 🌿 thank you to Jorge for such an amazing stay . Your hospitality made the experience so special. The food was incredible, the rooms were beautiful and calm, and the whole place was perfect for disconnecting and being in nature. Couldn’t have asked for a better host! thank you for everything! Nothing
• Alex (10/5): 10/10 - Überragendes Essen, tolle Angestellte, schön ruhig. Genau das richtige wenn man etwas Regenwaldfeeling mit Comfort möchte.
• Anna (10/5): How I wish I was there now... - It was a special experience, Jorge you are the best :) it was a pleasure to be there, spend time with people, river, silence, palm trees, waterfall, long walks, and I must mention - the food that was brilliant. If you read it now wondering to go or not to go - GO :)
• Faberge (10/5): Midden in de jungle, maar een droomlocatie - Alles!!!! We hebben het naar ons zin gehad met Jorge. Jorge kon ook geweldig koken. Bedankt de leuke tijd!! Tot in Nederland ;-) ——
• Fernando (7/5): - Buena desconexión y tranquilidad. No es tan fácil llegar al sitio sin una camioneta 4x4. Los precios de las comidas me parece elevado.
• ELARIOSC (10/5): - La tranquilidad y el contacto con la naturaleza
• Iratxe (7/5): - Hotel muy bonito y familiar. Pasa el rio justo al lado donde te puedes bañar. La comida es espectacular. Queda demasiado alejado de Minca y mal camino, hay que cruzar el rio en moto o 4x4.
• Eider Hernández (10/5): Desconexión y relajación - El hotel es hermoso. Sus habitaciones son amplias, bien iluminadas, muy cómodas y todas cuentan con vista al río y al bosque de la Sierra. Es una excelente opción si lo que buscas es desconexión: estarás rodeado de naturaleza, podrás observar aves y monos desde el balcón y disfrutar de baños energizantes en diferentes puntos del río, gratis y cuantas veces quieras. Si amas caminar, este lugar es perfecto para ti. El hotel ofrece senderos rodeados de vegetación, donde podrás ver los animales de la Sierra entre los árboles, apreciar hermosos paisajes e incluso contemplar la ciudad desde varios puntos del recorrido. Si necesitas trabajar, el internet es estable y con velocidad adecuada. La cocina ofrece platos deliciosos y únicos preparados con ingredientes locales; el desayuno está incluido y el almuerzo y la cena se pagan por separado. Aunque la comida es muy muy buena, es importante tener en cuenta que es costosa en relación con la moneda local. Cada plato tiene un valor aproximado de COP $90.000 (alrededor de USD 24–25 por persona). Si planeas tomar todas las comidas en el hotel, considera este aspecto dentro de tu presupuesto. No intentamos pedir domicilio, pero debido a lo aislado del lugar, es probable que no haya esta opción. Si no cuentas con transporte propio, deberás caminar una buena distancia o solicitar una moto, cuyo costo es de COP $35.000 (9 USD) por trayecto y por persona. También es posible contratar una camioneta 4x4, aunque su tarifa es más alta. Para quienes disfrutan caminar o hacer senderismo, esto puede no representar un inconveniente.
• minella (10/5): - Geweldig zo dicht de nature en toegang tot de rivier! En het eten is fantastisch!!
• Martyna.o (10/5): We would come back anytime - Hukumeizi is like a fairytale :) perfect for doing absolutely nothing. Rooms are spacious and keep pleasant temperature, you can fall asleep with the sound of the river & jungle. Food is amazing (which is super important if you plan not to move from the property), one of the best we had in our lives. Make sure you book a minimum of 2 nights to fully experience it. Jorge can arrange almost everything what's needed <3 We liked absulrely everything, simply writing the below for others to know what to expect, so the place will not get any bad reviews from surprised travellers :) - getting there is by 4x4 or motorbike, you can walk as well as long as someone leaves you in a correct spot (walking from Minca takes around 2h, motorbike 20min). - if you book a food there - there is no point to move :) simply swim in a river, do short walks, play with the dogs, take a nap etc. - be aware of bugs, mosquitos etc. - bathroom has no door
• abraham (8/5): -
• Zac DOLLING (10/5): - Amazing place. Highly recommend coming to stay here Nothing. It's perfect
• Philip (9/5): -
• katiana (10/5): -
• Daniela (10/5): Conectar con la naturaleza - La atención de Jorge, Emilce y Luisa fue excepcional, la amplitud de las habitaciones, la conexión con la naturaleza. 💚 Todo fue perfecto.
• Whatelsedoyouwanttoknow (10/5): Home is where your heart is, and so is Hukumeizi. - I like EVERYTHING. Hukumeizi is magical. Sleeping to the sound of the jungle, the river... extremely relaxing. Slowing down like there's no life outside of Hukumeizi, that's just what we needed. Jorge was an amazing host, always so extra special with us. And Luisa and Emilse, those cooks! I think they've taken Jorge's vision of amazing food to a whole new level. I love Hukumeizi. Missing it already. It feels like one of those places that changed you, touched you forever, you know? Can't wait to get back. I will go back to Hukumeizi for a longer stay. I have to. Having the worst hangover of my life since I left Hukumeizi, and I didn't even drink a single drop of alcohol. PS: Emilio is a great artist. Nothing.

• Nicolas (10/5): -
• Naroapeso (10/5): (Des)Conexión - La desconexión total. Nos propusimos dejar a un lado los móviles y simplemente estar presentes en el lugar tan maravilloso. Dispone de cascada privada, habitaciones con vistas al río y unas comidas deliciosas y saludables. No tienes que preocuparte por nada. Dormir oyendo el ruido del río no tiene precio. Además, estas rodeado de pájaros y la tranquilidad que se respira es increíble. El acceso al hotel es un tanto complicado, hay que coger unas motos para llegar (80.000 COP extra que hay que tener en cuenta). También se puede llegar andando pero es una caminata larga en la que tienes que cruzar un río. Eso sí, es muy bonito y una experiencia.
• Mona (10/5): Most magical stay in Colombia - Hotel Hukumeizi is a very special and magical place!!! In the nowhere ... very calm and quiet. Lovely people on site. We stayed longer than planned as we felt so comfortable and on ease and did not want to leave. Highly highly recommended. The road to get there was stressful but it was worth it. Don't go there by low car.
• Santacoloma (10/5): El mejor lugar en Minca sin duda - El lugar es increíble y lo mejor es el personal de servicio. Jorge es un excelente host y todas las personas que trabajan son muy profesionales y amables. Tienen la mejor comida de Minca y el río tan cerca es alucinante. Una experiencia única para conectar con la naturaleza.
• Virginie (10/5): ZALIGE PAAR DAGEN IN DE NATUUR - We hadden prachtige dagenin Hukameizi. Jorge en iedereen die er werkt is super vriendelijk en behulpzaam. We hielden ervan om de rivier en de waterval die vlakbij ligt voor ons alleen te hebben. Bovenal was het eten voortreffelijk. Het was moelijk om daarna tijdens onze reis nog op restaurant te gaan zonder de maaltijd te vergelijken met die van Hukumeizi. 🤭 Ook de ontmoeting met de inheemse bevolking was heel bijzonder. Wil je een verblijf buiten de typische begaande paden logeren, midden in de natuur maar toch met alle comfort (beste bed tijdens onze reis) twijfel dan niet! Helemaal niets!
• Thiel (9/5): -
• Philipp Harter (9/5): Traumhafte Unterkunft im Dschungel bei Minca - Jorge war klasse. Tolle Hilfe bei der Anreise (Moto-Taxis standen bereit) als wir an der Strasse abgesetzt wurden. Das Essen war abwechslungsreich und wirklich sehr gut. Meiner Partnerin ging es nicht gut ubd es wurden extra Speisen für sie zubereitet. Die Lage direkt am Fluss ist ein Traum. Zimmer groß und gemütlich. Kein warmes Wasser, aber das war bei den Temperaturen überhaupt kein Problem.
• William (10/5): A beautiful mix of delicious and surreal, just the way I imagine paradise to be. - The food and the staff were exceptional. The rooms were very nice and the access to the river is a big plus. Nothing. Everything was perfect.
• Katie (10/5): Serene paradise in the jungle - Beautiful property in the middle of serene, secluded nature, but just a quick moto ride away you can explore the town of Minca; lovely to connect with the other guests and hotel staff (as well as the adorable dogs living on property) over absolutely stunning dinners; everything about the space was intentional and designed with love! Everything was perfect - but do be aware it’s down a long dirt road with some river crossings and is quite secluded, as well as integrated with nature - absolutely beautiful for me, but perhaps not for the guest who prefers something a bit more urban/commercialized
• Juan (10/5): My heart is full! 🤍✨ - The staff was super friendly, the food was beyond delicious! Getting to interact with the indigenous communities in such an intimate way was very special! And going to sleep with the sound of the river every day was super magical! Will definitely come back to Hukumeizi Minca. N/A
• Tim (10/5): A rare kind of magic that stays with you. - A truly extraordinary experience. Writing a glowing review feels almost like betraying a secret. Part of this place’s magic lies in its quiet, under-the-radar charm. But some experiences are too special not to share. It’s no small feat getting here. Halfway along the dusty back road that leads in, you either have to cross a river by 4x4 or venture on foot across a rickety wooden bridge. Not quite as prepared as we should have been, we enlisted the help of some friendly locals to reach the final stretch. The crossing felt like a quiet test, almost a spiritual gateway, as if the river were deciding whether you were worthy of entering the magical realm beyond. It felt like something out of Lord of the Rings. On the way back, crossing that same river felt like the end of a great adventure and a reluctant return to reality. Bittersweet. We swam in the river, unplugged from the noise of modern life, and rediscovered the joy of life's bare essentials — things we’ve largely forgotten in an age of constant distraction. My partner had the chance to share a meaningful moment with members of the Indigenous community, which added a profound layer to her experience, as a Colombiana. For me, the highlight was the intimate dinners: shared meals in a communal space with fascinating people from around the world. Jorge, the host, is nothing short of exceptional. The dishes he and his small team prepared, using inventive techniques and local ingredients, weren’t just among the best I’ve had in Colombia but among the best I’ve had anywhere. If Jorge ever set his sights on opening a restaurant in the UK, I’ve no doubt it would be a huge success. But selfishly, I hope he doesn’t, because what he’s created here is something far rarer and far more magical. N/A
• Darraghd (10/5): Bliss - Had the most fantastic stay at Hotel Hukumeizi. From the amazing food (most of which they grow themselves or source nearby, and you can tell), to the location, surrounded by nature, waterfalls and swimming spots at your doorstep, our stay here was absolute respite! Jorge & Co are building something special here, and we’re grateful we had the chance to experience it. Only that we couldn’t stay longer!
• Annabel (10/5): Exceptional - This place massively surpassed our expectations! Jorge and the team were incredible, the food was unreal and the experience was so relaxing and peaceful. They really have something special here and I can see it only getting better. We feel honored to have spent time here. The natural waterfall, swimming spots, locals and views were such a treat, we even saw Monkeys! (Additionally they sorted all our transfers which was super helpful)
• Juan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Bashir (9/5): Superb - Abundant nature, in the middle of the forest in Minca.Large comfortable rooms. Great Value. The road to get there was rough, but I enjoyed riding it on the motorcycle. That's the main thing to consider here you need an off-road vehicle to get there. Management can arrange it for you.
