The property has a great view, good facilities, great personal, Excellent food. Everyone and everything was a good experience within the hotel. Only one thing I didn’t like was fact that the lighting on the street at night is not the best on your way back from the bars area. Having in count is the farthest hotel from the restaurants and bars area I will suggest to have that on mind.

What a nice place. Atop a mountain just gorgeous view. We had a room with a view and it did not disappoint. The hotel is very nice, but they definitely have to do some work on it. For the price we paid it could have been better. The people who work there are impeccable. They cater to your every need. Peaceful and majestic views. Nestled between two mountains in sacred lands this place is magnificent. Things are getting a little dangerous so caution is recommended.

The hotel is decent, but don't book there unless you're physically able to walk up a lot of stairs. The area is nice, but it's very noisy, that's just the area. That's what it is. Fortunately, the Hotel is above a lot of the noise. The staff is fantastic! Thank you very much for all you did for us. Wasn't impressed with the free breakfast and because of it, we decided not to die in at the hotel. There's a lot of great choices in the area that are easily found. I'd stay there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was nice. However, everything else was terrible. The area around the hotel was dirty. Unsafe to walk to the dirty beach. Many stairs to climb to room. Nasty room, bugs, etc. No hot water and posted “Do no drink water”Very loud music from local bar until 5 am, so sleep is not possible. We paid for the week, but left after first night losing all payment in advance. Best experience there was sitting on a large iguana on our 4th floor apartment patio. Went to Marriott and had a great time.

The staff was awesome! I was a little disappointed with the breakfast that was included in the stay and felt like they should've turned it up a notch. There is a lot of climbing involved, they're on the side of a mountain and do not have an elevator so to enjoy, the pretty view you have to work for it if you are not physically fit enough to do a little stairclimbing I'd recommend you stay away from this facility. The rooms are OK but very basic, no refrigerator, but I was furnished with a cooler and ice at my request . They were very accommodating! They do have a restaurant but because of the disappointing breakfast, we decided to eat elsewhere during the stay, there were many great choices in that area so we were OK having not utilized the restaurant. I would definitely stay there again because it's a very pretty place with a nice pool And a view to die for. Again, the staff were Very accommodating, friendly, and attentive.

There were mouse droppings in the bathroom. They were there every day. The maid never cleaned the room, she would remove the trash but never swept the floor so there was a layer of dirt and sand. The shower had two settings: extremely hot or frigid -- there was no in between. The architecture of the balcony was such that the strong winds sounded like we were staying next to railroad tracks. It is a short walk to the nicer beach (I think the listing said 7 minutes but unless you are sprinting that is not going to happen) but even the less nice beach is still good. No refrigerator or coffee machine so you must be constantly going to the often-closed restaurant for everything.

El Hotel tiene una vista espectacular

Disfrutamos mucho nuestra estadía en el hotel, las habitaciones nuevas son muy cómodas, y desde el balcón de la habitación, la vista es muy bonita. En términos generales todo muy bueno (servicio, cercanía a la playa bahía grande) Pero es importante que las personas sepan que hay que subir muchas escaleras, y el sendero a la playa tambien es muy empinado.

The hotel was nice enough. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The food in the restaurant was just so so. We were in Taganga in December and it was very crowded with tourists. Unfortunately, Taganga is very loud. Loud music played in several businesses literally ALL night. Due to the position of the hotel and the fact that sound carries over water, it was very loud in the hotel as well. Also, there were bright glaring lights shining out over the bay and into hotel windows. It is unfortunate that the town of Taganga allows this noise pollution and light pollution to exist. I was expecting a quiet fishing village, and got a loud obnoxious party town.

Alright Place

This place is alright, but next time I would probably stay at the other end of the bay where it is more developed. The first time I arrived I felt like the area to get there is a bit sketchy with people staying outside all night with loud music blasting and roosters going off at all hours of the night (not the hotel's fault). The hotel had great service, a nice view, and a nice pool. The wifi is OK but you couldn't work or commit to anything really important using internet. People weren't lying about cabs not wanting to go up to the top. You get dropped off at a roundabout at the bottom and take a path (not driveable) up to the hotel on the mountain. It's not bad. Every time we left the hotel and came back there were all of these little sort of pill-bugs (potato bugs) that appeared out of the drain. I just got home and am still unclear on whether or not these are bed bugs..but there weren't any in the bed or signs of blood or black eggs or anything. I have never seen bed bugs before so I don't know :/

BAHIA TAGANGA

This hotel is the premier property in Playa Taganga. Taganga is remote and dirt roads seperate the hotel from paved roads. GPS is a must for navigation to this location and speaking spanish is a plus. Gated parking is off site but just around the corner and a representive will take you there. The cost is about 6 dollars(US) per day and you won't need your car in while in the town. The hotel has a restaurant with great food and cheap beer(Aguila, Club Colombia for $1.50 US approx) and beer in the town was about $1 US, and seafood(including lobster) is plentifuland cheap. The hotel is elevated so there is a steep incline leading to the office and lots of stairs after that. The pool is great and overlooks the cove and the beach town. The hotel staff is great.
