Cabins in Manizales

We specifically chose this place for the nature and birds. We stayed in the el Abismo bungalow. The bungalow is spacious, has its own wifi network and offers great panoramic views.I even spotted a tucanet from the bathroom window.It is furnished with care. The property is quite big, and has trails that lead you to unexpected hidden spots (e.g. a barbercue, or a small waterfall). A lot of effort has been put in landscaping with small ponds and water cascades, lots of flowers and plants. Some plants specifically attract humming birds. The spot is a bit out of the city and not well known to taxi drivers, but no worries-the hotel has its own trusted driver and the drives to the city are very reasonably priced! Staff is very helpful (although not all speak english). The restaurant offers limited, but tasty choice of meals. Highly recommend if you want to immerse yourself in nature!

We had a huge room with a balcony overlooking the rainforest which was awesome. Beds comfy and great showers! Food was excellent value for money and perfect for the long days out birding. Guides are excellent.

The location and the staff were excellent will book again if I'm in the neighborhood

Privileged spot. private bedroom pool in the middle of nature is amazing

We had a wonderful time at Hacienda Guayabal thanks to the owners and staff who went out of their way to make our stay the best it could be. The hacienda, the personal atmosphere and the helpfulness were exceptional. The coffee tour we did was also exceptionally good and informative.

When traveling solo, sometimes you end up in a wonderful place. Well yeah, great. But, sometimes this place happens to be so wonderful that it hurts. Why?Because you’re alone and not in position to share the absolute excitement and furtune of having “discovered” it and being there in the first place. This corner of paradise, completely sustainable, envisioned by the most creative wisdom of its owner (and family) situated in the middle of the coffee valley area and thus surrounded by the most diverse and wildly beautiful nature, will give you the most amazing, authentic and purely magical experience you can dream of while visiting Colombia. “Magical”. Yes. Cause from the moment in which, around midnight, accompanied by the kindest host, I walked downhill to reach the accommodation, surrounded by the sounds of the jungle in the most attractive darkness, and immersed myself on this (quite steep) path into the unknown, well it literally felt like walking into a novel by G.G.Marquez. The place sits in the very heart of a jungle-surrounded valley, 10-15 mins by cab from Manizales, it has all the amenities you could dream of, including a lights-equipped jacuzzi facing the jungle (yes, I know, see pics attached haha). The path to reach it simply enriches the experience, cause once you get there, and realize that the host has walked that path several times just to provide you with the best experience possible (including turning on the terrace jacuzzi for my arrival) well you simply understand how lucky you just got. But more importantly you can’t help but sharing the vision of the owners: everything is recently built fully in bambù, family-managed, and environmental-friendly. This was built next to the family’s properties which are just a couple of hundred meters above. Close enough for you to enjoy both the most solitary comfort and their kindness whenever needed. Price is incredibly affordable and proper for the dream I just lived and described.

Amazing location, super beautiful setting, Juan is a great host, very welcoming and helpful! The outdoor bathroom was a highlight, such a serene setting! Also the view from the rooms and the garden is beautiful!
