Offering a terrace and views of the garden, Masaya Casas Viejas is set 30 minutes away from Minca in the Magdalena Region by 4x4 or motorcycle, and 12 mi from Santa Marta. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar with a terrace.

All private rooms are equipped with a ensuite bathroom. An absolutely incredible place. The drive up the mountain is not for the faint of heart but well worth it once you arrive. I can’t say enough great things about this property. I highly recommend.

Hostal Vista Verde Minca features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Minca. Providing a bar, the property is located within 19 km of Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino. The accommodation provides room service and free WiFi.

Santa Marta Gold Museum is 22 km from the hostel, while Santa Marta Cathedral is 23 km away. Simón Bolívar International Airport is 29 km from the property. This hostel is a beautiful oasis of trees and nature, we loved looking out to sea at sunset and during the day chilling in the hammocks, spotting different birds all around you. Staff were friendly and happy to answer questions and set up a bird watching tour which we did one morning from the hostel. The room was spacious, had a mosquito net and the shared bathroom was cleaned every morning. It’s a short walk away from waterfalls.

Hostal velero relax is situated on the beachfront in Santa Marta, a few steps from Guachaca Beach and 42 km from Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino. The property is around 45 km from Santa Marta Gold Museum, 45 km from Santa Marta Cathedral and 46 km from Simon Bolivar Park. The hostel features a terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. This was an absolute surprise and perfect from start to finish. The family hosting this place is so loving and the place and the location just breathtaking! I started by reserving a room and then ended up sleeping on the last floor on just a mattress - so basic but the nature there is just incredible. steady waves and a bit of wind make it the perfect ambiance to sleep outside. No noise at all for cars as the place is located directly in front of the beach. I highly recommend you go there !
