Boasting a beachfront location, Playa del Ritmo Beach Hostel &Bar offers free Wi-Fi and 24-hour front desk assistance in Pozos Colorados beach, Santa Marta.

I LOVED this hostel, the beach was great without any waves, not a lot of people, very calm water. The breakfast was delish, the food and drinks sold at the bar were very good, a bit pricey but not too bad. I will stay here everytime I visit Santa Marta. Do keep in mind that it's like 15/20 min drive to the center of Santa Marta, but taxis are cheap.

Cacao Hostel Santa Marta has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a terrace and bar in Santa Marta.

Loved this hostel! It was so comfortable, clean, really well run, the pool and bar area was beautiful, and the whole staff made us feel welcome and attended to. Alicia, in particular, welcomed us warmly and gave us a really nice orientation to the hostel and the surrounding area. Definitely recommend!

Featuring a garden, a shared lounge as well as a terrace, Sana Mar Hostel & Eco-Café is located in the center of Santa Marta, a 8-minute walk from Bahía de Santa Marta Beach.

Amazingly friendly staff. They were very helpful and helped us navigate the city. We were there during carnival, and it was extremely loud at night due to a party next door. The staff gave us very good earplugs at no extra cost. Justin, the owner, was also very friendly.

Located 1.3 miles from Playaca Beach, Hostal Las Guaduas provides rooms with air conditioning in Santa Marta.

Staff were lovely. Breakfast / coffee included which was a nice gesture. It was a good hostel to stay for 1 night as it was close to collectivos going to tayrona NP and Minca. Private room was clean and tidy and spacious and had good cold air conditioning.

This modern hostel is located in the heart of Santa Marta, just 1312 feet from the bay. It features free Wi-Fi, 2 swimming pools and a terrace with excellent views of the city.

The hotel location is really good! : ) The staff was super friendly, and the vibe in general was great! I like the included breakfast a lot. Loved that there was a ton of pressure in the shower! :D

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    THESE PEOPLE ARE SCAMMERS. THEY'RE TRYING TO GET YOU TO SEND THEM MONEY DIRECTLY TO AN UNKNOWN PERSONS COLOMBIAN BANK ACCOUNT & THEN THEY WON'T CONTACT YOU TO MEET YOU FOR THE ACCOMMODATION. I FO NOT TRANSER TO UNKNOWN INDIVIDUALS BANK ACCOUNTS AS IT LEAVES YOU WITHOUT ANY LEGAL PROTECTION. DO NOT TRANSFER TO ANYONE UNLESS YOU'RE THERE ST THE ACCOMMODATION OR YOU KNOW ITS SAFE
