Ok for us and connected to the silence of the spot : it is a 10-15 min walk uphill from the village.

Quiet. Beautiful view from public terrace and 3 beds room. Terrace with hammocks and large community room.

The beds could of been softer and more options for snacks / drinks if needed later at night. The breakfast whilst it was delicious with fresh juice, tea or coffee, fruits, eggs , bread or arepa could change variety after a few days.

Arrival at night with a taxi was manageable but be prepared it is a HIKE up from the first reception area. The staff greeted me with a glass of cold water which I was super appreciative of. The dorm is small and only able to have a max amount of people in it at one time so this did mean I made more subtle connections with other fellow travellers, waking up and then having breakfast together etc. The private mirador is a sweet touch also but the lack of restaurant was a bit of a snag in the experience meaning you had to eat before coming up in the dark or order from the right place early enough if you wanted those options. A very sweet and friendly cat was always around looking for a hug but be warned I did get bit a lot in the main common room area especially at night but this is typical for the area. Very clean facilities, fresh towels and laundry that was cleaned adequately.

The mattrasses were a bit too hard for us, but that's the only thing we had to complain about.

The house is beautiful, very clean and with nice interior. Because it is also a coworking space they offer a big public space and a good kitchen. The best is the view from the hammock or the table at the veranda! There you can enjoy the included breakfast, which was really good (good coffee). Be aware that you have to walk 5 to 10 min up the hill from the "town" to the finca.

- It's up a hill (7 minute hike) with no neighours so it's very quiet and peaceful - All the owners and staff are super friendly - Clean and comfortable room that's cleaned each day - Brilliant viewpoint to see the sunset - Nice outdoor dining/chill-out area with views of the mountains and Santa Marta - They can have food delivered to the place if you don't want to walk into town - Well equipped kitchen for cooking any type of meal There's not many people staying and no activities organized but for me and most people we really loved this because it was a perfect place to really relax, enjoy nature and just move at a very slow pace. I booked 2 nights but stayed 5 and was very sad to have to leave.

Nothing negative to add here. As others have mentioned, the finca is located up a hill, and you will need to walk a few minutes along the main road from Minca's center and then 10min more up a private road. It's well worth it and if you feel lazy you can either take a moto taxi or even order food up there.

Beautifully located an a hill, with a safe distance from the hustle and bustle of Minca, this Casa Quinta is the perfect spot for everyone looking for a place to relax. It has a nice outdoor lounge area with hammocks, a private mirador 5min up the hill to watch the sunset, a beautiful garden, a well equipped kitchen, a bar in the afternoon, nice rooms, and friendly staff. Almost everyone we talked to wanted to stay at least a day longer than originally booked and for us it was clear why.

We literally liked everything about this place! You can live here for a few days in a cosy, but at the same time spacious house in a beautifull setting. The staff was super helpfull (including a map and explanation of the area), the shower was warm, the hygiene was on point and the kitchen well equiped. The location was also great, in walking distance of the center of Minca. To get to this house you need to go up a steep hill, which you can do by foot or by motortaxi (depending on your fitness level), but the view is worth the effort.

Felt like a hike away from home- super comfy and clean. The view was incredible. The hike up is definitely worth it!!!

It's quite something to walk up to the hostel but definitely worth the view!!They offer to call a Moto taxi to take you up if you prefer and it's only 5000 cop

Wow the view is incredible, the service is so nice, you can order your food for a delivery. The mirador is fantastic, they offered to go to the second hostel down the hill to refresh in the river. Calm, just the sounds of the birds.

Sandflies! But can’t get rid of them!

Great staff, lovely breakfast, room was big and clean and great location. It has a nice social atmosphere we really enjoyed our stay!

Lack of English speaking staff. Although for most part it was ok as one person spoke English and was communicating via booking.com or WhatsApp throughout.

Extraordinary and unobstructed view of the mountains. Staff didn't speak English but were still very kind and helpful. Decent breakfast. Wifi was strong in working area but was also good in the room, I was able to video conference from room. The communication was also prompt. Very spacious and clean room. Due to the climb, it was rather quite. Good kitchen setup. Overall a value for money.

after the sun set, the 5-min hike up the path to get to the property is extremely dark (no lights, bring a flashlight!)

beautiful views from the top of the mountain and the people staying there were fantastic

Nothing!

Everything was great! Staff was very nice and shared helpful information with a map when we arrived. They have a great breakfast that you can order for a small fee. 15000 COP. Fruit and yogurt with granola or eggs, toast, and fruit. Coffee and juice provided as well. Kitchen was nice to use as well and very well equipped. The hostel is located up a steep hill but not a huge issue if you are reasonably fit. They have laundry services as well.

Although the views are stunning, the road to get there is rather steep.

The property and its facilities are very well maintained, the staff is super helpful as well! Nice and complete breakfast.

Dorm room was a bit too hot during the day, could use another fan or something (also for the night). Climbing up to the Casa Quinta can get tiring after a couple of times

Nice views around, good kitchen, welcoming staff and great common areas

location it was amazing

Stayed in January 2023

I stayed in the dormitory and it was one of the best ones during my travels through Colombia- very clean, best equipped kitchen - I loved cooking there! The view is amazing and I did some Yoga in the morning at the mirador. And I got very detailed and thoughtful recommendations what to do / eat in town - all in all a great experience, I definitely recommend!!

We had a very comfortable stay here! The room was spacious and clean with a warm shower, beds were comfortable. Location was really nice, only a few minutes walk from Minca in a tranquil environment with a reallt nice view. Very friendly staff, helpful information about the area when we arrived.

Nothing. Only you have to walk ten min up on own property to arrive at the finca. The owner is nice and will bring your backpack up and down when you arrive/leave.

Very nice location only 15 min walk from the center of Minca. Everything was very clean and a very well equipped kitchen. You have a very nice view from the hostal and they even have their own viewpoint.

Nothing, I’d absolutely go back. It is definitely a bit more expensive than most of the other hostels I’ve stayed in Colombia, but for what you’re getting, it’s awesome, and it’s one of the lower price points in Minca.

Very clean. Quiet, mellow vibe. Nice, well-supplied kitchen. Impressive common area with a great view and indoor and outdoor spaces. Good wifi. Spacious dorm room with comfortable beds, good lockers, and a nice bathroom. There’s even hot water (though it was out of gas while I was there). Cool viewpoint up top, and a fire pit area. Great location. Close enough to town to walk, but far enough that you feel like you’re out in nature. Nicolas and Mariana made me feel very welcome and well taken care of.
