Great adventure
We had an amazing experience inside the park. The service here is great and the food is deserving of a Michelin star. A great place to book if you are looking for adventure. The hotel is located inside the park, givibg you access to the trail head befor the crowds.

Beautiful relaxation
Beautiful location and view. Much more ideal to have a private bathroom than use the shared, as natures night friends are out lurking. Food is actually good! You can order lunch bags for if you go spend the day hiking in Tayrona (not worth it- plus food available out on the beach). Fan is a bit loud but necessary. I also wish they had more hammocks out

This is a beautiful hotel in the Tayrona Park. The walk up the terrace is covered with flowers and plants. The food is wonderful and the staff take care of you. You are higher up and experience lovely breezes. If I were to come again I would stay all of the nights at Yachay!

Unique lodging in Tayrona NNP
The location of the hotel, in Tayrona park is the huge attraction of the place. It's situated in the trees on a hilltop with nice landscape care. The staff was extremely conscientious and helpful. The food in the restaurant was great. The shared bath rooms are quite small with overly firm beds. There is no privacy as anyone can walk past your window. The showers (two for men, two for women) are in a separate hut. One shower head was bad, the other worse. No mirror or plugs (power) at the sinks. No hot water, but the weather was so hot, the briskness was okay. So if you are okay with quite rustic lodging, the location, service, and food are great.

Great hotel!
Great stay. The staff and food were wonderful. The room was a little small, but it was what we expected for four people. The hotel is beautiful and in a great location. You can walk to the hotel from the entrance of the park and take a short shuttle to the beginning of the trails.

Très bel hôtel dans le parc
Le Yachai est très beau et agréable, au cœur du parc de Tayrona, précisément à 10mn à pied depuis l'entrée El Zaino. Nous avons occupé la suite familiale qui propose une superbe terrasse avec un jacuzzi privatif extérieur. La localisation est bonne mais nécessite tout de même de prendre la navette pour accéder au départ du sentier de randonnée (ou alors il faut marcher 45mn le long de la route). Mais la navette est très facile à prendre, il en passe régulièrement (5000COP par personne et par trajet). L'hôtel en lui même est très beau et plutôt bien entretenu. Propreté irréprochable. Le restaurant est bon, un peu cher mais très lent. Séjour très agréable.

Para llegar al hotel se debe pagar una entrada al parque que no está incluida en la tarifa del hotel. Al llegar las entradas al parque estaban agotadas y no pudimos acceder. Esta información tendría que ser facilitada por el hotel al huésped y la compra de esta entrada debería estar gestionada por parte del hotel. Nos han hecho perder un dia entero de nuestras vacaciones y no hemos recibido ninguna compensación. Por otra parte al salir nos cobraban unos cafés que no habíamos consumido. Nos hemos ido muy disgustados y estamos muy inconformes con los servicios de este hotel ya que no es un hotel barato. En mi opinión son unos informales.
