There are three big beautiful dogs that protect the territory, however they are super gentle and kid friendly! The land was amazing we stayed at the Maloca by the river and we all slept like babies ! There was so much peace and quiet! Even at night! I would recommend this amazing location to anyone! Thank You for your hospitality!

We stayed 5 days at the property and got to enjoy the warm Colombian hospitality in a magnificent natural setting. The team was super helpful in assisting us with organizing transport and providing tips on what to do in the region. The food was amazing and the best we had in Salento and surroundings for sure!

Very beautiful and tranquil property. In the morning you wake up to the sounds of the river and birds singing. There are many opportunities to hike and visit coffee farms. Salento is a 15 minute bus ride away where you can catch buses to some of the main towns/cities. The staff are very pleasant and accommodating. A great place to relax and enjoy nature. The gardens are especially beautiful and well maintained.

If you are in to communal travel you might like this place. The family lives there. I was not happy with the place at all they are to relaxed and do it your self attitude Small rooms, hot in the day and if you want to get breakfast good luck in sitting because all the long term guests sit on the one table and stay there for hours. They offer massage service on the profile and that’s not true. It’s really not my cup of tea at all. The little creek is to dirty to even stick your feet in. Dog are wonderful that’s about it. Not for kids or for big families or for romantic stays. I would think of this as a hostel not a hotel.

Beautiful lodge in Salento
Wonderful eco lodge located in a stunningly beautiful location. The grounds are lush with trees and flowers and you’ll feel like yours in paradise. The lodge is family run and very friendly. Homemade meals are available for breakfast and dinner and we enjoyed a nightly fire with the other guests. We very much enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended.

Der Aufenthalt bei Ed war definitiv einer der Höhepunkte unserer Reise in Kolumbien. Die Lage ist fantastisch und man hat einen herrlichen Ausblick. Ed und deine Familie geben einem das Gefühl, willkommen zu sein und stehen jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Das Abendessen sowie die abendlichen Runden mit den anderen Gästen waren immer ein toller Ausklang des Tages. Ich kann den Aufenthalt jedem nur empfehlen! Wir waren vier Nächte da und hätten noch gut länger bleiben können. Ein Ausflug ins Corcora Valley und auch die Hiking Tracks zu den Kaffeefarmen bieten einen wundervollen Ausblick in einem sehr angenehmen Klima.
