Summary of traveller reviews

Kimara Hostel in El Zaino offers an unbeatable location, just a short walk from the Tayrona National Park entrance, making it ideal for early park access. Guests frequently praise the incredibly friendly and helpful staff, especially Christian, who enhance the stay with great advice and hospitality. The property features a nice pool and relaxing spots, perfect for unwinding after a day of hiking. While some recent reviews mention issues with cleanliness, particularly in shared kitchen areas, and a lack of secure storage, the overwhelmingly positive feedback on staff and location highlights its appeal for travellers seeking convenience and a welcoming atmosphere.

Right by the el Zaino entrance. Hostel wasn’t super clean, not in a great area, vibes were a little off, no place to keep your stuff. We were supposed to stay for two nights but ended up leaving early because we weren’t very comfortable there.

Such a lovely stay here! Calm hostel and the hosts are so kind, the pool is quite nice after hiking in tayrona. Walkable to the entrance on the parque. Will forsure stay here again next time I'm in the area

The personal was very friendly. However the kitchen you use is the private kitchen of the people living there which was rather dirty. Furthermore there is no locker to keep you’re valuables safe.
