    the views from the terrace, the great food, the parrot, the kind staff and the nice cabins. We got a beer with the sunset and the Tayrona view. They stored our bags for us to go to the park and stay the night there.

    Staff were extremely friendly and smiley, personal thanks to Santiago who was absolutely brilliant. We had a very heavy bag and staff took care of it despite the very many stairs. Welcome cocktail which is a nice touch. The room was very clean and the shower had hot water which is rare in the area. The views are fantastic, you will love the sunset. Dinner was good (very yummy coconut rice) and they even asked whether we wanted our red wine at room temperature (they tend to serve it cold in Colombia). Good breakfast. Close to Tayrona Park which avoids having to do a long drive. Hotel helped us organise our taxi requirements.

    Nothing! Maybe only that we got an old taxi for our ride from El Quetzal to Cartagena (although our taxi driver was SUPER NICE & friendly!).

    The view / location was just stunning! Even better than the photos on the Lodge’d website. The team at the Quetzal Dorado were really nice, super helpful and assisted us with all our questions and concerns. We loved it!

    This place was absolutely amazing. When arriving we got a welcome drink, everything was really clean, the food was delicious and the staff was very helpful. Also, we had to walk only 25 minutes to the entrance of Tayrona Park. I would highly recommand this place.

    The ecolodge is next to a busy road. We needed the sound of the airco in order not to hear the trucks during the nights. Maybe if you have room a room at the back of the resort, it will be a little bit better.

    The view from the restaurant is stunning, the personnel is friendly.

    Nothing we didn't like. Great place and the staff made it special.

    From the moment we arrived we had a great stay. In fact, before that, as advance communications were great and confirmation that our dietary requirements could be met. Excellent information on arrival, a lovely room, fantastic terrace with sunsets and birds and cocktails, great food - and wonderful help with everything. Nothing was hard, everything was easy and smooth and no problem.

    Santiago amazingly welcomed us with his friendly attitude and service. We immediately felt welcome and had an amazing time in this place, even though it was only for one night. The food was awesome made by a local "mama". The service was perfect. There is a swimming pool, pool bar, darts and stuff. The view from the restaurant was beautiful. There was animals everywhere to watch. The general vibes of this place was so positive and welcoming. Shout out to Santiago for taking such good care of us!

    We loved our stay at quetzal dorado eco-lodge. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The view is amazing. A delicious breakfast and coffee every morning. The food and drinks at the bar were also very good. Close to the national park of tayrona. The massage afterwards is very nice as well. Would have liked to stay more days.
