Salvaje
A house of six doors where the jungle descends to the sea. No crowds, no rush: the Caribbean, the shade of the almond trees, and time standing still.

The place
Private jungle, open sea
Salvaje hides along a stretch of coast reached only by water or a shaded path, where the Sierra comes down to touch the sand.
Twelve hectares of tropical forest, a beach no one else sets foot on, and six suites that seem to grow among the trees. No front desk, no schedules: just hammocks, coconut water at dawn, and the distant chatter of monkeys. Every corner is designed so that luxury isn't seen, it's felt.
- 6 oceanfront suites
- 12 hectares of jungle
- 1 private beach
The sea on one side, the jungle on the other,
and nothing in between.
What surrounds Salvaje
The house is enough never to want to leave. But the Sierra and the sea hold treasures a step away, and whenever you like, we'll take you.
-
20 min by boat Tayrona Park
Untouched beaches between jungle and rock, walked before anyone arrives.
-
1 h inland Sierra Nevada
Cold rivers, high-altitude coffee, and the highest green above the sea.
-
A paddle from the house Hidden bays
Coves of still water to swim, snorkel, or do nothing at all.
Days unlike any other
Days aren't planned, they're let happen
Nothing is required. The day shapes itself, between the sea, the table, and the wild.
- Sea table
Origin cuisine with the day's catch and our own garden, served wherever you like: the beach, the jungle, or your terrace.
- Spa in the wild
Massages with oils from the Sierra, to the rhythm of the waves and birdsong.
- Voyages to Tayrona
Dawn boat trips to the park's untouched beaches, with a local guide.
The table is a landscape too
Caribbean-rooted cooking, without pretense: whatever the sea and the garden give that day, barely touched.
- No fixed menu
The chef builds the menu each morning from what the sea and garden give.
- From sea and Sierra
Fish from the bay's fishermen, fruit from the Sierra, herbs from the garden.
- Wherever you like
Breakfasts by the water, lunches in the shade, candlelit dinners.
The body rests too
Massages with oils from the Sierra to the rhythm of the waves. An open-air cabana facing the sea, hands that know the craft, and nothing else to do.
- Oils from the Sierra
Massages with local essences, to the rhythm of the waves.
- Cabana open to the sea
A space without walls, between the jungle and the water.
- Sunrise yoga
First light, the sound of the sea, and nothing else to do.
The sea, level with your feet
At the edge of the sand, beneath the almond trees: shaded daybeds, cold coconut water, and a kitchen that comes straight from the sea. The whole day unfolds down here, where the wave breaks.
- Shaded daybeds
Beach beds beneath the almond-tree shade, with towels and cold water always within reach; never rows, never crowds.
- Sea table
Ceviches, the day's catch, and fruit cocktails, served at the water's edge.
- The long sunset
The club doesn't close with the sun: it stays for the best part of the day.
The whole house, for your own
Weddings of few, anniversaries no one forgets, gatherings behind closed doors. Salvaje books out whole: six suites, the private beach, and a team that takes care of everything.
- Intimate weddings
Up to sixteen guests by the sea, with a signature dinner beneath a lampless sky.
- Whole-house buyout
All six suites for you and yours; the beach and the jungle, without a single stranger.
- Retreats & gatherings
Long tables, sunrise yoga, and silence for groups seeking to gather far from the world.

The house
The people who host you
Salvaje began with two travelers who came for a week and stayed for good.
Mara and Tomás opened the house eight years ago, certain that true luxury is time and silence. Today a small team, most of them from the region, tends to every arrival as if you were family. In the kitchen, chef Iván turns the day's catch into tables you won't forget.

What guests take from Salvaje
We arrived looking for rest and left feeling that time belonged to us. There's nowhere else like it in the Caribbean.
The sound of the sea coming into the suite, the food, the silence. Every detail considered without the effort ever showing.
Rarely does a place live up to its promise. Salvaje surpasses it. We'll be back every year.
Luxury the earth doesn't pay for
We live off this stretch of coast. Caring for it isn't a program: it's the only way to remain here.
-
Powered by the sun
The house runs on solar panels and treated rainwater.
-
Garden and sea
We eat what the garden gives and the bay's responsible fishing.
-
Zero single-use plastic
No single-use plastics; everything returns to the earth or is reused.
-
Local hands
Our team and guides are from the Sierra and the coast. The benefit stays.

@salvaje The house, day by day
Before you come
What does the stay include?
Daily breakfast, internal transfers from Santa Marta, water and snacks, and access to all common areas. Experiences and additional meals are charged separately.
What's the booking policy?
Confirmed with a 50% deposit; the balance is paid on arrival. Cancellations more than 15 days ahead receive a full refund.
Is it suitable for children?
Salvaje is designed as a calm retreat for adults. We welcome children over 12.
Is there wifi and signal?
There's wifi in the common areas. In the suites we'd rather let the place do its work: disconnect.
What's the weather like?
Caribbean all year: warm and sunny. The brief afternoon rains, between May and November, are part of the charm.
Is there a minimum stay?
Yes, the minimum stay is two nights. During high season it may be longer; we confirm this when booking.
How and when do I pay?
Confirmed with a 50% deposit by transfer or card; the balance is paid on arrival. Rates are in Colombian pesos and include taxes.
Can I bring pets?
To protect the surrounding environment and wildlife, we don't host pets for now.
The last stretch is by sea — is it safe?
Yes. It's a twenty-minute crossing with our own crew and life vests for everyone. If the sea isn't cooperating we adjust the timing; we never sail in poor conditions.
