A charming hotel in a peaceful setting and beautifully kept grounds. The staff, particularly Jose, were friendly, helpful and polite. A delicious breakfast was served each morning with a smile plus free tea, coffee and filtered water was available all day long. The beds were comfortable and everywhere was very clean. The veranda was spacious with comfortable seating areas and hammocks. A little far from anywhere, but the local bus to Palomino (about 8km away) runs every 15 mins right past the hotel gate and the gatekeeper will flag it down for you.

If you’re someone like me who prefers to be surrender by nature and calmess instead of bars and a busy road then this place is perfect. Short walk from the beach and main road. It can be dark at night to walk around, however I never felt unsafe after dark on the roads.
It has an Asian vibe to it and gorgeous landscaping. The rooms are extremely spacious and gorgeous. The staff is incredible and super sweet.
There is also someone at reception 24/7 so there is that sense of security. The property is well taken care of. I stayed for 6 nights and didn’t want to leave. Thank you. 🥰

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.
Fantastic hostel! Originally had a 2 night booking and extended our stay to 4 nights. Such a great value.
On the main road, a short walk to the beach. The best breakfast provided. They also serve lunch on certain days that was wonderful as well. Very clean and the staff and owner were friendly.
The WiFi was top notch. The power went out in Palomino and there was no break in WiFi connection. Also the hostel has a generator so the power outage did not affect the guests.
Water and coffee available all day. Truly a great place!!
It’s one if not the best place on the beach in Palomino. It has a big bit of beach front. It’s got the beach vibe from the surfers, it’s close to the bars, and it’s got pretty rooms. We had the closest room the the sea, with aircon- fantastic. Large and beautiful.
Check you have aircon room!
Palomino itself is a backpacker thing with more expensive hotels beginning. I love the relaxed vibe in the evening, 5$ cocktails on the beach at sunset, music blaring (not from Casa coral je- from other places)
I was very lucky with my accommodation choice in Palomino - Casa Juana is a very quiet and welcoming place with wonderful staff and a great choice of activities. They arranged horse riding on the beach and a visit to an indigenous people village for me - both activities were wonderful. My room had a private terrace with a hammock. There are also hammocks in the common areas of the building. Wifi signal was strong and reliable - good for work calls. Hope to be back one day!
This place is so well run. An exemplary hostel . The staff were so helpful and genuinely meant it when they told me to let them know if there was anything they could do to help or to let them know if anything wasn't as it should be so they could correct/repair it. The place had a great relaxed atmosphere. It was kept very clean and tidy - not easy in Palomino. Highly recommended.
This hotel is new to palomino, the staff are so so kind and nice , we had a welcome drink provided to us which was very much needed after a long day of travel.
It is super clean , room cleaned every day, pool immaculate. excellent value for money , very good breakfast.
The staff are the kindest most welcoming Colombian and Venezuelans we have met on our trip- Thank you !!
I’m in love with this hostel! The staff was super friendly and helpful, the location was great (specially if you are planning to go tubing at the Palomino River, and to enjoy the beach afterwards). The pool is big and fun, and the hostel has such a great vibe with people from all over the world. Great variety of food, big room and bathrooms… I totally recommend this place!
A beautiful hotel situated in the main area of Palomino so very close to restaurants and bars and a short walk to the beach. The room was lovely with a very comfortable bed and little balcony overlooking banana palms and the pool.
The staff were so friendly and helpful, especially at reception.
There was a very good choice for breakfast. We really enjoyed our stay.
I was at Makao in February and had a great stay! The location right on the beach is fantastic, rooms are clean, and we enjoyed the food and cocktails from the restaurant/bar. You can take surf lessons right in front of the hotel and we were able to book river tubing there as well. The staff are really friendly and helpful, special thanks to Jesús and Anderson!
The Jaba Jan Hotel is located 15 min outside of Palomino (or 30 min walking down the beach) close to the river, and a quiet beach area after a 15 min walk through the beachy forest. You can get all your food there, take yoga classes, play volleyball, or - as most people - just take a break and relax in one of the hammocks.
The hotel staff were some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. We were welcomed with a refreshing watermelon drink when we checked in. The entire property is beautiful, located right on the beach. I am so sad we only got to stay 2 nights, it was an absolute dream. Also, the food was some of the best we’ve had in Colombia!
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.
i got this hostel at a really great price, so naturally I wasn’t expecting much, but this hostel exceeded my expectations! It is so close to the beach, has incredible food, and you won’t find a cheaper place that offers 4 bed dorms!
Breakfast was really good. The hostel is only 5 min away from the beach. The staff was amazing and they made me feel like I was staying at a friend's house. Totally recommended. I will definitely go back next time I visit Palomino.
Lovely quiet sanctuary in Palomino. They had several breakfast options, change to arepas only :). Staff was very sweet and helpful. Close to the hotel nice restaurant and cake shop.
Absolutely amazing! Huts right on the beach with a shop near by. The family owners can’t do more for you they’re so friendly. Definitely a place to stay in palomino
