Located in the centre of Santa Marta, 600 metres from Bahía de Santa Marta Beach, Hostel paradise St provides air-conditioned rooms and free WiFi. The property is around 500 metres from Simon Bolivar Park, 5.1 km from Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino and 7.1 km from Rodadero Sea Aquarium and Museum. The guest house features family rooms. The hotel is just at the edge of the lively area which means that it was quiet at night! Our room was big and comfortable and they kindly let us leave our bikes at the hotel while we went on a non bike trip for a few days. Would always go back here if I'm ever back in SM.

400 metres from Salguero Beach, Hostal Magdalena is set in Santa Marta and offers air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi. The property features inner courtyard and quiet street views, and is 4.4 km from Rodadero Sea Aquarium and Museum. The guest house has family rooms. The staff and owners are incredibly friendly and helpful and made our stay the best. Their cute and well-behaved animals were a big plus! The hostel is clean, the beds comfortable and the aircon great (and necessary). Delicious breakfast. Good wifi! Located in a calmer part of Santa Marta with fewer restaurants, although close to the beach. A bit noisy during the evenings due to the traffic outside. Ideal for people traveling in groups or in pairs.

All units at the guest house are fitted with a seating area. Accommodation includes a terrace with mountain views, a fully equipped kitchenette, an outdoor dining area and a private bathroom with shower. At the guest house, each unit has bed linen and towels. Ramon was a wonderful host! He helped us discover new hikes, waterfalls, beaches, and served us a delicious breakfast each morning. We felt at home in his place. The view from the top of his property is beautiful, and it was great to be so close to the river and hike right from our cabana. We could walk to Tayrona and take a short bus ride to other sites. The small town of San Rafael was the perfect landing for us; we loved experiencing culture in that way. The accommodations are simple but we're exactly what our family wanted.

Sightseeing tours are available in the vicinity of the property. The guest house has a picnic area where you can spend a day out in the open. The lady who owns it is sooo friendly, and her grandmother. She gave me a little leaving present which was really nice. Beautiful balcony where you can watch the sunset from the hammock. Very quiet. 5 mins walk into the main strip of town (up a hill on the way back but not far- worth it for the views from the balcony)

With a private bathroom, units at the guest house also provide guests with free WiFi, while certain rooms here will provide you with a terrace. At the guest house, some units are allergy-free.

Guests at the guest house will be able to enjoy activities in and around Minca, like cycling and hiking. It's a wonderful place to stay if you want peace and quiet and amazing views. The rooms had a balcony with stunning views, so did the shared terrace. The staff is very accommodating and helpful, they have a water refill station which is amazing as it reduces the amount of plastic and is very handy. The room is spacious, basic but has everything one needs. There's only cold water, but it's everywhere in this part of Colombia, just be prepared. We loved the location as it's away from the noise and pollution of Minca, but close enough to a couple of good restaurants (you must try the Japanese place 2 minutes away, the food was extra delicious and the owners are so lovely). The hidden waterfall is walkable distance too and it was our favourite one of them all - almost no people, clean and deep enough to swim. Another MUST DO is a visit to Plan B, it's a farm nearby where they do tours. It was the best experience we had so far.
