About this property

Located alongside a crystalline river and surrounded by the jungle and mountain views, Finca Carpe Diem Ecolodge offers accommodation 18 km from Santa Marta and 14 km from Tayrona Park. To get to the property it's necessary to go through the Village of Bonda, since the Finca Carpe Diem Ecolodge is located on the other side of the mountain. The property is set in the Minca Region, but the exact location is Paso del Mango, a tropical valley in the Minca area. Free WiFi access is available in this lodge. At Finca Carpe Diem Ecolodge you will find 3 outdoor pools and a garden. Other facilities offered include a shared lounge, laundry facilities and a vending machine. An array of outdoor activities can be enjoyed on site or in the surroundings including swimming, visiting nature reserves, learning how to grow and make your own coffee, honey, cacao and cheese. Manzanares River is located steps from the property. If you feel like visiting the surroundings, check out El Rodadero Beach (13.9 km) and Quinta de San Pedro Alejandrino (9.2 km). This lodge is 12 km from Simón Bolivar Airport.
