Absolutely everything. I won’t go into much detail right now, but everything about the hotel was simply delightful. Food, accommodations, location, staff, and even the atmosphere of the place. Who I believe to be the manager, even went as far to personally greet every guest and go out of his way to make sure everyone feels comfortable and accommodated. The two nights my family spent there was an extremely memorable experience, and it is safe to say that La Jarorá is one of, if not the best hotel/resort I’ve ever had the pleasure of staying in.

Casa colibri was my travel partner and my home for 13 days in Palomino and we are digital nomads and working for most of it. Most of the town has bad internet. We asked for desks to be put in the rooms and we got it. There isn’t really anywhere else in the area that has such solid internet and generator for when the electricity goes out. Power went out in the town mid meeting but there is a 30 minute battery back up for internet so it didn’t effect the meeting. The internet is so fast can watch movies or shows on your laptop. The rooms are modest but fulfilled all our needs. Just know there isn’t blankets, just sheets. Rooms are cleaned regularly too which is really helpful. Our favorite part of our stay is the friendly owner who was a perfect Palomino resource and also very kind and fun. The free breakfast is legendary and we loved the affordable lunch too.

We liked almost everything.
Nice 6 cabañas at the beach within palm trees. Long beach to walk and watch the sunrises and sunsets.
Restaurant opened from 7 am till 9 pm with the last order at 8 pm. The food is really tasty. They have the best colombian cook and other helping ladies.
Outside bathroom was a nice experience.
Communication with the reception lady via WhatsApp and ordering food via WhatsApp so all is on time.

Palomino has become a place where foreigners go to have fun with drugs, alcohol and sex. The hotels are owned by foreigners who do not know the balance and good treatment with nature, I think it is a disturbing tourism for the communities and nature... Lots of noise in the surroundings

Palomino has a reputation for a relaxed place and lifestyle.
Palomino has a reputation for a relaxed place and lifestyle. This is not entirely true as most of the beachfront is built up with fenced off resorts. The quality of the food and cocktails is generally low to average at best. There are nice people, too, of course, but there is very few backpacking/hippie style going on.

This is a great town for beach vibes , good local restaurants and a bit of night life. There are lots of travelers but it isn't too touristy. Still an easy-going beach town. Go now before more tourists find it!
A float down the (shallow) river makes for a fun day and leave some time for some cervezas on the public beach at the end. If you take a motorbike to the trailhead, be prepared to hang on tight and ask for a helmet - health and safety doesn't seem to be a thing here!
Buses are easy to catch on the main road and tuk-tuks/motorbikes can be hired for getting around town, although nothing is too far to walk.
Looking forward to a return to Palomino!

Lovely beach, great for a walk and surfing during our visit...
Lovely beach, great for a walk and surfing during our visit in January. Not sure about other times of the year. Plenty of beach front properties offering food and drinks. The town streets are not tarmac, some muddy patches during our stay, no pavement beyond the first block, if you don't use a tuk tuk or motorbike on arrival to your hostel, you are carrying your bag, no wheelie suitcases!! No parking either, if you are driving, check where you can park. Probably a torch in some areas after dark, definitely along areas of the beach, would help and although we stayed away from main town would imagine it gets very lively after dark!
Sorry, but personally, there are too many dogs begging for food, most didn't look starving, think the restaurants may feed them, but I don't like dogs begging at the table. Seems throught South America, its a problem, but really noticed it here, especially with a dog rescue nearby.
This a great place to stay in Palomino. We booked - and we recomand it - a room "with big double bad and view to the garden" and we were practically had an entire garden with swimming pool and a reading / working space and only for ourselves. We spent 14 days here and we enjoyed every moment. Zoraida and her personnel were amazing. I thank Zoraida and to both Gabi and Juana for their warm energy! Only 6 mins walking to the beach and 6 mins walking to the main road, a wonderful place with wonderful people!
Connected to nature despite being only 2-3 km from Palomino. This is a new couple-run hostel directly on the river where you can float or walk down stream. A private beach is 15 min walk away. Breakfast included and good value menu del día. The big kitchen is available for guests to cook lunch and dinner. They provide fresh water for a small fee. Very laid back - much more than the resorts nearby. Basic yoga and workout area available. Lots of areas to stretch out and relax.
Great location on the hippie street of Palomino close to the beach.
Convenient shop at reception for essentials.
Movie night, free yoga, comfortable seats at the bar, a pool table and some games, pool was nice.
Quiet and rested well, enjoyed the balcony with the hammock.
Wifi that continued to work throughout the storms (other hostels may completely shut down).
Parfait fruta del mar was delicious.
Juando was the nicest member of staff.
The location is super beautiful and quiet, surrounded by nature ( a lot of birds and other animals around), constant sound of the sea was soooo relaxing, swimming pool was also amazing. It was very nuce that this hotel was further from busy Palomino (to Palomino it was only 10min walking distance by the beach) And the staff was brilliant! Very friendly and attentive. Karolina was take super good care of us. Thank you!
Great location. Right in front of the beach, which is empty and you can enjoy it mostly on your own.
Restaurant food is very good (we had lunch, and some entrees, and they were very tasty).
You’re in contact with nature, the sea, and different animals, so you can relax and disconnect.
They let us check out later (the hotel wasn’t full).
Beautiful beach and very comfortable hammocks to chill and enjoy.
Perfect place to stay in Palomino! The staff is super friendly and can help you book tubing if you want. Beautiful cat and cute puppy in the lobby! The rooms are very comfortable, and we enjoyed the hammocks on the patio—incredible views of the mountains! It’s close to the bus stop on the main road and just a 20 minute walk to the beach. Would highly recommend!
The location is marvellous - in the middle of nature, having the view of palmtrees all around. That’s priceless. We had perfect view from our terrace. Nice pools.
Bars, restauranst start just from the hotel area till Palomino “center” - nice walks on the beach.
Overall we enjoyed our stay, because we rate surrounding and athmosphere over other things 😎
The staff was very helpful and friendly. It is a small hotel - so lots of personal attention if that is what you like. We had the room with the ocean view which was spectacular...everything I could have hoped for. The beach was great for walking - our 10,000 (or more) steps daily were very enjoyable. I really liked the Happy Hour as well - good value -
IThe hotel is fantastic, the owner Herman went above and beyond to help us out and insure we had a fantastic time. He speaks perfect English and is just such a nice guy. The pool is refreshing and the coffee and breakfast were delightful as well. I am on my way to Palomino again as I write this and hoping to stay there again. Highly recommend
If you would like to have a qiute place with a private beach - you should choose Hukumeizi Hotel.
Hotel is outside the city, so there is no problem with too much tourists. If you would like go to the city you can go through the beach or choose a taxi. Place looks like a paradise.
Stuff was very helpful and kind, rooms are very clean.
The breakfast at Playa Roca Ecohotel was amazing! They had the coolest thing ever - plantain pancakes! They were so tasty and different from regular pancakes. I loved every bite!
The dinner was even better! We ate tasty seafood, and then we had a bonfire on the beach!
The staff was really nice and made everything perfect.
Excellent value for money. The room was comfortable and clean, the location perfect for walking to the main road and/or the beach in either direction, and the staff was extremely helpful (being very patient with our limited Spanish). The on-site breakfast was also quite good. Definitely an underrated option in Palomino.
Clean and nicely done property with garden and beach. Room was large and had a comfy bed. Other guests were quite and even families with kids were keeping their noise at a minimum. We received a transport to Santa Marta Airport via the Hotels third party partner, it was fully punctual, professional and fairly priced.
Perfect location, and staff super welcoming and helpful with everything I needed. The hostel has a great vibe, you can relax and enjoy the peace on th Hammocks while having everything you need at hand just out of the main door. The room was clean and newly built, the beach is within walking distance, amazing place.
The staff was amazing! (Adrian was such a sweet angel) the room was great spacious with balcony to the pool. The hostel was located in the middle of town so I felt everything was close, it was about 15 mins from the beach walking. The coctels were really nice and the ambient at night!
This place is perfect. The huts are beautiful and you’re on your own private beach. This whole stretch of beach is cut off from Palomino by river mouth and is empty and also much more beautiful. Just take a tuk tuk into town for 15k, it’s so worth it.
Amazing little hostel which is more of a boutique hotel. The best breakfast, lovely pool and great food! 5 minutes walk to the beach and ask about the dog shelter palomino walk we did it and it was the highlight of our trip!
