Top Palomino Hotel Reviews

Aite Hotel

Aite Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This was my favorite stay in all of Colombia. From the start, I was impressed. There’s a security gate entrance and a welcoming reception. The staff went above and beyond to assist with Tuk Tuk transportation to/from Palomino (Jose is the best!), and they assisted with booking us excursions with the best guides. We upgraded to a beachfront Hut, which was the absolute best experience! It offered everything I wanted for my vacation, which was to hear the waves breaking at night while in bed, be close to sacred land and experience the culture, and end with a relaxing river tubing experience. I highly recommend this place for your stay in beautiful Colombia!"

"The staff was incredibly kind and helpful, and the food and service were excellent! We booked two different rooms—both were beautiful, spacious, and very comfortable. The pool and common areas could use some improvement, especially adding more lounge chairs, a better bar setup, and some shade by the pool. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!"
