You can play table tennis at this hostel. El Rodadero Beach is 30 km from Ecolodge Playa Brava Teyumakke, while Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino is 24 km away. The nearest airport is Simón Bolívar International Airport, 36 km from the property. The lodge is located on Playa Brava which is probably the quietest of Tayrona's main beaches because it's a much longer and more challenging hike to reach. As a result you have a real feeling of escapism, and there are much more premium accommodation options than in the rest of the park. It was a great place to chill out and enjoy escaping reality.

Featuring a garden, a shared lounge as well as a terrace, Sana Mar Hostel & Eco-Café is located in the centre of Santa Marta, 700 metres from Bahía de Santa Marta Beach. The property is around 800 metres from Simon Bolivar Park, 4.5 km from Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino and 7 km from Rodadero Sea Aquarium and Museum. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and luggage storage space for guests. It is more than just a Hostel and cafe, and more than just a place to stay. Justin is making moves and giving back to the community, and finding away to bring people back to nature, which is more than I can say for most of the hostels I’ve stayed at. If you’d like to be part of something bigger, it’s a good place to start. The staff were all extremely nice and accommodating! The place was clean, set up well for travelers and in a great part of town! It was especially nice being able to talk to an expat Justin, who was quick to show me all of the areas i should check out. The set up and price make this a great place for someone passing through for an evening like myself or for a more long term stay there in Santa Marta!
